I’ve never loved sex. Growing up, I felt broken because everyone put it on a pedestal

The only thing that Cameron and I have ever been at odds about is our sex life. When we met nine years ago we were in our late 20s, and sex was definitely something that he wanted more frequently than me. After about six months of dating we decided to try an open arrangement so that Cameron could pursue people who are more sexual than I am.

There were feelings of jealousy at first, but our relationship was strengthened because we had such strong communication, and I grew to feel really secure in our bond. It’s been a huge blessing for us, because I’ve never loved sex. Growing up, I felt broken because everyone else put it on a pedestal, but I never really understood what was so great about it.
