When Danielle Vincely asks new boyfriends if they fancy going outside for sex they’re usually happy to oblige. “Guys love it at first,” admitted 24-year-old Danielle. “They think it’s kinky making love under the stars in the woods, on beaches, park benches and car bonnets. “But after a while they get annoyed, especially if it’s raining, and dump me. Men like a quick romp inside on the bed but I just can’t bring myself to do it.

But the thrill of romping in the fresh air soon wears off once Danielle reveals she suffers a bizarre phobia that prevents her from having sex indoors.

And Danielle, says her sexual claustrophobia ruins her love life as partners soon tire of her adventurous sex demands on beaches, parks and football pitches – which have landed her in trouble with police.

“I can only get turned on when I’m out in the fresh air and looking up at the sky,” she explains. “I’ve tried having sex indoors, but I get panicky and nauseous and have to stop.”

But each time Luke (her ex) tried to get close to Danielle indoors she’d push him away. “He kept asking if there was something wrong,” she says. “I told him I felt claustrophobic when we had sex inside and could only enjoy it outdoors.”

The couple, who met at college, then planned unusual locations to have sex. Danielle says: “We’d drive to the seaside to make love in sand dunes, or we’d sneak on to our local football pitch at night. It was a huge rush knowing we risked getting caught. That’s part of the thrill.”

But the excitement wore off for Luke, and after eight months he ended things. “He thought I wasn’t trying hard enough to enjoy sex indoors,” says Danielle. “We argued all the time and then split up.”

Since then, Danielle’s only had one other serious relationship – but got dumped after five months because of her unusual habit.

“I convinced him to have sex on the flat roof of my parents’ house,” says Danielle, who still lives at home. “It was too much for him. He couldn’t deal with it.”

Shockingly, Danielle’s been caught by a police officer romping naked in a park with a man she’d met at a nightclub hours earlier.

“We got a warning for indecent exposure,” she laughs. “I thought it was funny, but he was mortified.”

She refuses to seek medical help or counseling for her problem, saying: “I’m hoping I might just grow out of it.”
Sexpert Tracey Cox says: Danielle can easily have counseling so that she finds sex indoors enjoyable. But she needs to get it sorted because the longer the situation goes on the harder it will be to fix it.”
