Your poetry leaves something to be desired. As do your manners. A man should not be a lech. That's vulgar. There is pleasure to be found in a woman's company beyond anything carnal - conversation, shared interests, a companion and friend.

I would explain it as such: 'Ms. Phoebe, I do sincerely apologize, but there are certain requirements here beyond the standard. The Hedonists refer to it as "distraction," though that's simply a euphemism for a more intimate act. The most intimate that two people might be. Please understand, you have time to find a man you favor and can trust. The effects of abstinence usually set in after a week or two. You'll notice food starts to taste off, then things will begin to pass through you. I realize it's not a great deal of time, but it is there for you to find your bearings in some small measure. If there is anything I can do to help you, please let me know.'

It displays sympathy for the difficult situation she's been put in and provides her the facts of the situation without imposing yourself on her. Offering to help someone, I find, is far more effective at drawing them in than pursuing so actively and salaciously as you've done.
