Your Question:

Dear Experts,

Ok, my boyfriends has been talking about us having a threesome with another girl and that is something I am not into. I keep telling him that I'm not attracted to girls and that I'm uncomfortable with it. But, he keeps on insisting that it would be fun. But, I don't think it will. What should I do? When he won't take no for an answer?

The Answer:

Dear chick4choice,

If your boyfriend cares about you, he should respect your wishes about this.

It can be difficult to communicate about differences in expectations about sex. But when it comes to relationships, everyone has the right to set boundaries and have those boundaries respected. If you don't feel comfortable engaging in a threesome, you shouldn't be pressured into it.

No one should feel pressured into doing something sexually that they don't want to do. Partners should be clear with each other about what they do and don't want to do, and they need to respect each others' boundaries.

Bottom line: if you don't want to have a threesome, don't.

Hope this information helps!

Take care,
