Comparing me to her past partners hurt my confidence

My girlfriend said I lack the 'sexual aura' of her past partners, making me feel insecure and affecting our sex life.

What I wish I knew
"How to improve our connection without feeling like I need to compete with guys she's trying to move away from"
If I could tell you one thing
"Communicate openly about feelings and boundaries to avoid hurtful comparisons"
