Hello Not Alone Forum,
I am 51 and my girlfriend of 3 months is 48. I nicely made her aware of her feminine odor. She acknowledged that she was aware of her BV from a previous relationship and she knows how to get it under control.
From that point on she has felt okay openly discussing it, and even sharing her douching regiment with me. Once, when I was going down on her, she actually asked how she smelled down there. At that time, she smelled okay, but it totally ruined it for me and I had to stop.
I've been in many sexual relationships. I understand some of the unfortunate issues that women have to deal with. But, trying to stay mentally and physically aroused while she wants to discuss this has been an EXTREME challenge!
I feel, especially at this stage in the relationship, these are conversations that she should be having with a girlfriend or doctor. When I have expressed my reluctance to go into in-depth conversations about this, she labels me either squeamish or immature.
I can act as her confidante in this matter but is it such a romantic and sexual turn-off.
Am I out of mind?
Thoughts Please?
