According to Osho, it’s hard to relate because conditioning—here, the ‘British’ prudish, nagging, sex-repressive mold—stiffens love into roles and jokes instead of living intimacy. The remedy isn’t blame but deconditioning: drop national identities, moral postures, and fear; bring awareness, playfulness, and honest sexuality. With meditation and humor, you can meet each other freshly, beyond habits, and rediscover simple, joyous connection.
You’re both acting out learned, stiff habits; relax, laugh, be honest about love and sex, and meet each other anew.
