Thanks for the advice, Mistress M. He does seem to respond nicely if I offer suggestions, and we did talk recently about how he loses the scene after orgasm. He was open to suggestion, particularly if it got him back "in the mood", so there's hope for me yet.

We're not exactly newbies to this, but I'm hoping to move beyond the little bits that we've tried. I know that patience is a virtue and will be rewarded, so I'm trying to not to push him too much to go past his limits, just as much as I hope that he wouldn't do that to me.

The task idea is particularly appealing. I'm going to go look for that now.
