Archetype · In Bed

The Tender

Eye-contact intimacy

Soft · Slow · Connected

You need feelings to want it. The eyes are the whole event.

What this archetype looks like

For you, the connection is the center. You need closeness, softness and the feeling that your partner is not rushing through you. The good part is that intimacy can feel emotionally rich and safe with you. The hard part is that partners who only understand heat or speed may mistake your pace for low interest. It is not low interest. It is how you warm up. Tell your partner that closeness helps desire grow for you.
