    I’ve commented on this before, she needs to learn to communicate her desire and not just assume her being in her underwear instantly communicates “I want sex.”

    Like, sure, if he saw her in her underwear and understood this was her way of communicating that and he is still not going for it maybe there is an issue. But by default there is no way to know that is what their relationship is like.

      Yeah, I’ve had exes where them being in their underwear meant they wanted to have sex. It also meant they were just getting ready for bed and weren’t the slightest bit interested. If I was in bed watching a video on my phone it means I’ve already broached the subject and been shot down. I’m not going to make an attempt again just because she took her clothes off. She’s going to need to actually communicate if she changed her mind.

      Exactly. I hang out in my underwear and in the nude all the time with my partner, it doesn’t mean anything sexual for us. It is a sign of climate change. For us, we just tell each other.

      Yeah I had an ex who had to tell me the opposite. She just had weird germophobia about sitting on public seats then sitting on home furniture. I thought she was always just raring to go when we returned to one of our apartments.

        That’s not weird. Sitting on home furniture in the same clothes you sat on a bus means depositing particles of bum vomit and god knows what else on your home furniture.
