Dear Dr. Betty,

Dr. Betty,

I'm 18 years old, and last night a friend and I tried to have sex. I have never had penetrative sex before, but he has been with several different girls, although never with a virgin before. I had also never been penetrated with anything at all, including my own fingers, so I wasn't
sure what to expect.

Dear Dr. Betty,

When my boyfriend and I first met we were always having sex and trying new things in the bedroom. Now it seems like he can go weeks without it and I still want sex every few days or so. Then I get frustrated because he doesn't want to have sex and we have an argument and he gets more stressed out about it. I don't want to ruin my relationship with him. Do you have any advice on what to do to make him want sex more? Or what I can do?

Dear E,

Dr. Betty,

I'm a recent college grad and took up a job as helper on a long-haul truck to make ends meet until I can find better work in this economy. On my first trip, I was totally taken off guard by constant erections and I was very embarrassed. Loose, thin sweatpants are comfortable but awful at hiding an erection...especially since I didn't wear underwear.

Dear Dr. Betty,

My boyfriend and I have a great relationship. He is amazing and I am totally satisfied in every way. Sexually as well. He is the first partner I am able to regularly orgasm with during sex and I find him amazingly attractive.

My problem is I think I have an unusually low libido. I greatly enjoy sex when I do have it, and as I stated I have no trouble orgasming. However, I don't feel the need to have sex very often. I would say about a few times a month on average. It's just not something I think about often or feel a very strong need for.

Hi Dr.Betty,

Hi Dr. Betty,

Dear Betty,

I'm sure that this is a common problem as people age but seeking help to sexual problems when you are older can be quite disconcerting it seems.

In recent years, my wonderful wife who is 64, has lost almost all interest in sex. Sexual intercourse for us is a once or twice annually event and I happen to know that she rarely masturbates now either. I'm 65 and in recent years have noticed a decline in my libido too and in particular a decline in the strength of my erections.

Dear Dr. Betty,

I've only had sex with guys but I've always had this fantasy about fucking another woman. So I've tried to kind of invite other girls at parties to having sex, but they've always said no. I guess I'm not really good-looking and all that but I have the confidence. I would love to see if it's more than just a fantasy. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?

Dear Betty,
