You can go from being gentle to being rough but you can't go from being rough to slow and gentle! Regardless of who your partner is, start out slow an... gentle and move up as you read her responses. She will let you know by body signs if not in words what she wants. That's why communication is so important. Talk with each other while you are doing what you are doing. How can you make it better for her? What does she want from you? More pressure? Less pressure? Different spot? Longer foreplay?. " my frustration leaks out at her as well, but Anastasia is used to getting things done.She takes Godiva by the shoulders and gives her a hug. Hitting my forehead with my palm, Now why didn't I think of that. I am so used to force, I have forgotten what a little kindness can do."Diva, you heard her, she saved Maggie, she can bring Gwen back too." She says gently to the older woman. "Please, think, where are they taking her?"Godiva, sniffles a little, takes a couple of deep breaths, then looks. Janet stopping them often, to introduce them to someone she felt they should know. It was considered rude to be late to one of Vasari’s affairs and even more so not to hurry to her to apologise.The fact that Mark had ignored her after the first look infuriated Vasari. He seemed in no hurry to get to her, as if she was no more important than anyone else was in the room. She was seething by the time he did face her. He smiled at her with his lips but not his eyes.“My dear Vasari, so good to see. But we've been living on a lot less for a very long time. And this was like free money! There had been almost no labor involved at all.In the back of my mind I was bothered. Not by what we just did. But by the knowledge that no matter how much money we made from those coins I would still be unemployed and without any prospects for finding a source for a steady income and hopefully improving our lives.But I've always tended to wait until tomorrow to worry about tomorrow. Those nagging doubts.
