My partner told me he sometimes feels guilt and concern after a rough session. He told me he’s had lots of rough sex in the past and never felt this way. It came up in conversation when he was admiring a photo of me he compared it to being like a flower you don’t want to pick but the flower wants to be picked. He said, maybe it’s because he really loves me. He insist he doesn’t hold back during the act and sometimes has these feelings after I can’t help but wonder if this means he desires me less or is hesitating. Has anyone ever felt this way before? How did you overcome it? What was the reason?
