Thanks for not being overly defensive in your reply. I can see that you're someone willing to improve and to hear people out.

I find some of what you're saying kind of alarming. I think you're misguided with your frustrations, which I might add, are valid. You're allowed to be frustrated if you feel that your partner isn't giving you what's important to you. But relationships aren't transactional, it's not a matter of do A,B,C and you will get X,Y,Z back. You are in a relationship with a person, a person with a background that they likely had no control over, a history of decisions that they can no longer change, just a myriad of their own reasons for why they are the way they are. We all have a past and have done things in the past that we might wish we'd done differently. What matters is what you do now and the decisions you make for yourself with the wisdom you have.

You can't just be with someone who has decided they no longer want to do certain things that they may have done for their toxic ex in the past, and take that to mean that you must not be as good as him or she must not love you enough. Who knows, maybe the fact that she's willing to stand up for herself and express that she's uncomfortable with it means that you make her feel way more comfortable and valued than he ever did. Isn't that what matters? Isn't that what makes you the better person? My point is, it's still not about you, and you won't know what it IS about unless you let her open up to you. You don't just get things you want in a relationship because you 'earn' them, you have to do the due diligence of looking for the right person who can give you most of the things you really want in a partner, and then respectfully communicate and compromise with them on the remaining few incompatibilities.

Her ex sounds like a piece of shit, and you sound like you're at least trying to be a good partner. But you also sound like you tend to make everything about yourself. I encourage you to take a step back and see your partner for the independent person she is, and that nothing she does is a reflection of you. At the end of the day, you could be the most caring, trustworthy, reliable partner, and she could just be a shitty one. Or just an incompatible one. And anyway, why are you treating oral like it's some kind of prize that her ex won and you didn't? Shouldn't the prize be the fact that she's now with you and not him? I mean in your own words, you could get oral any day from a number of other women. But here you are trying to make it work with her. I think you'll be amazed by the results if you put your ego aside and experiment with different ways of communicating. Wish you the best.

It sounds like you knew what you were getting into when you committed to her. She was open with you about her past sexual traumas which explain why she is adamant about safe sex, and also that she simply doesn't like performing oral. What made you think that her mind on either of these subjects would suddenly change? If they were that important to you, you should have been working with her and having regular conversations about what you can do as a partner to possibly make her feel comfortable enough to engage in the kind of sex you want. And if she holds firm, you should respect that and decide if it's a dealbreaker for you. For the record, you should absolutely not be bringing her past relationship into the issue of her not performing oral on you. You don't know the full context for why she did it then and won't do it now, but it doesn't matter, it's her choice. It doesn't mean you're not 'good enough'. She just doesn't want to. If you really want to understand why, then you should ask her and have a serious conversation about it.

Her past trauma is related to a breach of trust. If you saw a future with her and wanted to work towards having her open up to you sexually, you should have been focusing on how to make her feel loved and secure in the ways that she'd be receptive to. Instead, you blatantly asked her how she would feel if you had sex with someone else? Coming from a woman, you blew it. Even if you had no intentions of doing so without her permission, you have now planted a seed of doubt in her mind when she was already feeling insecure. If you thought that it would get you what you wanted, you're wrong, it has likely done the opposite.

As for you bringing up your looks and how you're getting more attention than before, that should have nothing to do with the issues that you and your partner are facing. The fact that you're bringing it up and implying that she should just give you what you want from her since she's worried about you cheating with all the other women you could get is gross.

I'm not trying to paint you as a villain here, I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you're posting for advice because you care about this woman and want to be with her (although frankly nothing in your post makes it sound like you do), while also having your needs met. I'm going to be blunt, it sounds like you might just be incompatible. But if you want to try and work on it, you need to cut the bullshit of bringing up her past and bringing up other women, and really just focus on building your connection with her. You need to talk to her and figure out what she needs from you in order to feel secure, not just what YOU THINK is going to make her feel secure. And you need to have an honest conversation about sex where you're really trying to understand the limits of what she's comfortable with, and work together to come up with solutions for you feeling dissatisfied.
