Dear Lily,
After my boyfriend and I make love, he tends to grunt and immediately fall asleep or retreat to play computer games until the early hours of the morning. Meanwhile, I yearn for our intimacy to be complemented by a sweet, lingering conversation as we embrace each other until we peacefully drift off to sleep with smiles on our faces. Evidently, my boyfriend holds quite unrealistic expectations regarding our relationship, yet I find it challenging to communicate this to him. Do you have any advice?
Lily says – Every Thursday afternoon, my class participates in music education. We venture to the school hall to explore through percussion and dance while using blue foam mats. This activity is apparently a crucial method to foster development in adaptive social behavior and enhance communication skills. While I’m skeptical about how playing the triangle and performing star jumps contributes, it certainly produces a delightful sound. If you’re struggling to convey your feelings to your boyfriend, I’m positive my teacher would lend you some maracas and a glockenspiel if you ask politely. Just be cautious, as your boyfriend might get a bit too enthusiastic like Oliver French did a few weeks back and express himself excessively in front of the class: this could lead to his tambourine being taken away and him having to hold the teacher’s hand until he learns to behave like a good little boy again.
Hope that helps!
