I am sure that if you are affected by pain during intercourse that your partner may already be aware of this. Despite your best efforts - unconsciously you may be guarding against pain and your partner may percieve this as a lack of interest in him. It may be useful to provide him with information on the subject and discuss this. Also some couples find that speaking with a sex therapist together is helpful. Trust your relationship - I am sure your partner would want the best for you. You might find the following link helpful
