Hi Edgewood!
It looks like the both of you are doing great.
Let me chime in with some observations of my own, if I may.
I'm not surprised over the effect of your "coming out". Women love to be trusted with the intimate secrets of their men. Reciprocally, she will be more open with
her (secret or not) desires.
And you will be topping from the bottom at least for some time. No book by anybody can tell her what's going on in
your head, so she (quite desperately) needs your input on what's right and what's wrong. And real trust in it will only come after you've hit a bad spot and been open about it. When she knows deep down inside that she
can't hurt you, because you're not too proud or "manly" to call "stop", she will gain trust in herself that she's doing it right.
Don't call 11 days "mere". Let that be told to you from a guy whose longest stretch has been 2 (two) days
And the episode after the morning run clearly was a "sounding you out" from her side. By asking you to call it quits at the height of arousal she wanted to know if you really crave being kept from coming.
One question: has your mutual sex life improved? Does she want and get more from you now?
