Two whole months! Wow, what horrible deprivation! This makes me think that once LKH started being sexually active, she never stopped for any period of time.
Dev says that's fair
Was he planning to refuse to use a condom and flat-out rape her if he didn't think it was? A person does not need an excuse for wanting their partner to use a condom. Ugh, this scene is gross.
She chalks it up to him feeling teased.
Feeling teased is "good pain." This is not the first time LKH has written as if a man not getting an orgasm right this second from a woman is a horrible and terrible thing.
Gods, I'd forgotten how tight you stay even wet.
Tight and wet are not mutually exclusive at all. I still have a hard time believing LKH has ever had sex.
our bodies married more intimately than anything else could make us" Does anyone understand what that means?
Yes. It means LKH thinks penetrative sex involving a penis is the only way to intimacy, and it's also a slap against marriage.
Dev tells her he won't last if she does that again so they should change positions
Every man I've ever been with lasts longer with the woman on top.
"Heaven of love" vs. "purgatory of I-like-you" is breaking my brain. I think it is an ultra-traditional way to look at sex, and shows that, for all her pretenses of being edgy, LKH's basic opinions have not changed. Fucking someone just because you like them is not a "purgatory", and it's not lesser than romantic love. It's a different kind of relationship.

Dev hadn't touched a woman in two months
