My friend has been with his girlfriend for about six months. He is happy with her but admitted that things never heated up in the bedroom. Initially he thought they just to find their chemistry and hit their groove. The groove still hasn’t appeared yet. Should he let her know that their sex life needs some work?

I don’t know how he can avoid it, but it is definitely a sensitive topic. A lot of women think they are rock stars when it comes to sex. Fragile egos make it hard to broach a subject like this. I would want to know if it is bad sooner then later, if I didn’t already know myself.

Have you ever had to let someone know the chemistry was missing in the bedroom? Should you bring it up while in bed? Over brunch?

How would you want to be told?
