I need to prove to him that I really don't have expectations of him. I tell him all the time (and I show him with actions) that I enjoy being with him in every way, and I don't feel like anything is "missing".
You are doing everything right, now just keep repeating that to him. You have to get through the emotional scars. Good luck!
1) not ask for intercourse in any way, I'll rather let him suggest it and try to be as spontaneous and reassuring as possible when he does. I don't want to look too eager cause then he'll think that it's really a big deal to me, nor do I want him to think that I don't desire him. So I'll just be myself I guess!
I think this would work if you had other sex, but didn't ask for intercourse. Guys build up a desire for what they aren't getting. If he is getting plenty of sex, but not PV (pee pee-va jay jay) intercourse, I think he might develop a desire for intercourse. But I'm just estimating probabilities.
2) If the problem arises again, ...ok, I don't know. What should I do in the immediate? Perhaps I'll just try to understand how he feels in that moment, and act accordingly.
If the problem happens again, act like there's nothing wrong. If you act like there's nothing wrong, he will eventually understand, it's ok not to be a stud. In fact, tell him how much like like to be naked with him and cuddle. Maybe fall asleep in each other's arms. Focus on the positive. In fact, do you ask him if you can suck him? Act like it's a treat for YOU. Build up his confidence. Make him feel wanted. Make him feel like his boy juice is a special treat.
