    Not getting wet ???


    Have questions about a natural-feeling lube?

    We have more answers!

    Read our article, “AH! YES OB: A Luxurious, Natural Plant-Oil Lube You Have To Try” here:

    I have no clue whats going on. But in the past few months I just haven't been getting wet.. I feel turned on, extremely so at times, but when it gets down to it.. I'm just not wet. It makes it awkward for my boyfriend and it makes him feel somewhat incompetent, even though that's not the case. I've heard it could have to do with birth control, I'm currently on Depo but considering switching to Implanon. At any rate, has anyone else had this problem and found a solution? I know we can use lube, and we've considered it.. But I would prefer to just natural wetness, it makes it better for both of us.

    I'd guess it was your b/c.
    I think my is the cause for my trouble getting "wet enough" (most times) also. It's frustrating, but I'd rather deal with that, than a kid. haha
    I'm honestly not sure which methods have that as a side effect and which may not... but I'm on a pill.
    Spit and lube is my best friend! And honestly, even though it might take a little more effort, it's kind of arousing in a sense too.

      I have dry days, weeks, months years even, lube definitely or olive oil him up, if yoreu not wet or lubed it can be very uncomfortable and even painful for you. It's certainly not him, and I'm sure you still enjoy him touching you. I even get it the other way around I can be sitting down doing nothing much and I'm wet as ****, but not when I need to be, go figure.
      Never judge on face value, never assume someone is ok, because to you they look it. Enjoy life and what you have, don't take it for granted, not everyone is as lucky as you.
