Dear How to Do It,

My boyfriend adores eating me out. He always wants to do it before we get to any penetration. He likes to pride himself on being really good at it, too. He coyly tells me he’s always gotten compliments on his skills.

The trouble is, he actually isn’t very good at all—or at least not for me, because it never feels right. Something is off, and there’s not enough friction. I usually just feel like I’m waiting until it’s over so we can get to the main event. He really seems to think I love it too—and now I feel terrible about potentially having to come clean. How do I get out of this situation?
