text: does anyone out there feel embarrased to be sexually open wit husband? why is it that one feels very shy and embarrassed to be sexually forthcoming to her own husband and yet is the complete opposite wit previous lovers? maybe because you really care what your husband thinks of you.  you might think that you will lose his respect.  i know how you feel.  maybe chat with him online while in another room or write him a letter telling him whatever you want.  sometimes its easier to write than talk.
