Episode Description
On today’s show, I discuss what happens when sex is taken off the table, but closeness isn’t. I look at how sex often gives scenes their shape, makes vulnerability feel easier to tolerate, and offers a clear sense of direction and ending. We talk about what comes up when that structure is gone, how intimacy gets confused with intensity, and why non-sexual closeness can feel more confronting than people expect. This isn’t about better scenes or doing kink the right way. It’s an honest look at presence, exposure, and what’s revealed when there’s nothing to perform, escalate, or finish with.
