I don't know what you mean about playful fun in the bed? I don't like to play games in the bed, but if something funny accidentally happens, sure I can laugh. I just like to take making love seriously. I can have fun with my partner in a bunch of other situations, but joking around in the bedroom is not my style. I have never actually met a woman who likes to have playful, fun sex....whatever that means? That is all. I don't mind whatsoever that you enjoy having playful fun. I just see sex as something that is above playful fun.
I wasn't referring to you as using sex as a tool, but to your ex girlfriend by refusing to have sex for sometimes up to a month because you had an argument.
I personally love playful fun sex. An example;
After a long drive romantic drive up the coast of Italy my boyfriend and I arrived at our waterfront destination and basically raced up the stairs to be with each other. After a mad passionate round of sex I burst out laughing, he looked at me questioningly and I laughingly replied "Now everyone in the hotel knows your name". The jokes continued about how everyone was now in their rooms making love and 9 months from now there would be a flood of children born named Tony or Antonia... through this the lovemaking never stopped nor did the laughter.
We went on to imitate the way the different people we had seen in the lobby would make love (to hilarious results) and always enjoyed talking to each other in the language of romantic novels, "let me taste the sweet nectar of your bubbling brook" or "please thrust your hard, velvety sword of love into my aching void" with laughter at every phrase.
For me, the ability to laugh and be playful during lovemaking takes it to a much deeper connection then being serious and intense.
