I'm going to recommend to you a book by Dr. Emily Nagotsky. It's called Come As You Are. I think that book is worth y'all checking out and reading together. It's really a remarkable book. It's awkward at times. And if y'all are both quote unquote shy, oh man, she drops a grenade right in the middle of shy. But I think it's worth reading. And if you'll do it, read it with you. It'd be worth reading together.

"
It's a book on his journey and study into grief.
This book is a very vulnerable exploration.
It makes me really proud. It's sobering.
Writing a book was both very cathartic and therapeutic. It really helped me process a lot of the things that I'm excited to help people about.
But on the other side of it now, it may be realized and again, I'm so thankful for it, but a lot of the superfluous things in life just don't matter as much as the relationships.

It's a book for women about women's sexuality, but it's been incredibly instructive to men who I've asked to read it, myself included.
It talks about the myth of a sex drive. It's not real. It's not a thing.
