While you may hope that he can just " read the signs " you need to also verbally express how you feel.

So before you attempt to make love to a man, make sure that you ' ve found one that actually cares about you and respects you. I know this part is not exactly the most exciting, but the other important aspect of being comfortable is being safe.
