Nina's question for this week comes from a woman who fears letting go, fears expressing herself and fears being vulnerable in front of her partner. While she hopes her partner will just magically know what she wants, Nina says it's, unfortunately, just not that easy. None of us are mind readers, but Nina's got some tips on how to work up the courage to communicate our wants and needs in the bedroom.

Got something you want to ask Nina? (Of course you do.) Drop her a line at tuesdayswithnina@gmail.com. Now, while we can’t promise that every question received will get a personal response, however, those that do will be answered frankly, entertainingly, enlighteningly and, if we know Nina, in the spirit of happy, healthy sex and a satisfied libido.
