This thread proves women will always find something to complain about.

I'm a bit confused at what you are looking for?

Do you need more or less dialogue?
A specific type of dialogue like more I love you versus you're so hot?

Do you not feel like you're in it together and it's more about him proving how much of a man he is?

What is it you are desiring?


Have you tried talking to him about it ? How did he respond?

Maybe op wants the encounter to feel more personalized, not just like a generic act that would be the same no matter who was there.

Maybe more eye contact and sensuality, not just sexuality.

Op is probably thinking “what else is there?!?!”

That was never in dispute from the jump. That's exactly what OP's concerned about

Sounds like you have watched too many romantic movies or read too much chick lit.

Agree with this.

I've been married for 15 years and have a really nice husband, and he also goes into a different state of mind during sex. I would never frame it as being a "piece of meat." It's a good thing.

For men, the physical act of sex is very tied up with love.

+1 Sometimes sex is just sex. Enjoy feeling wanted, and the consequent 'throw down.' Many middle aged women would kill for this!
