Keep losing the nerve to compliment girl on date...the last date I found the whole outfit/her look very nice. Can I send something over text? Is it acceptable

We're taking things slow, Met few times. I am generally nervous of messing things up, last time we met I couldn't stop thinking how pretty she looked (especially with what she was wearing), is it something that one can usually text after date?

I've (M 21) been talking to this girl (F 18) from work for a little over two months now. Wondering if I should keep playing it cool, or should I try to be more assertive with my feelings at this point.

Hello everyone! Thanks in advance for any advice you can give. The only one I really talk to about this in depth to is my brother, so I figured I would try to get some advice from the people of reddit. Alright, some backstory on the situation. We're both are servers at the same job, we met because she was new and didn't know how to finish her report at the end of her shift, one of the other girls from work sent her my way and said I knew what the numbers meant so I helped her out. From there on we would talk every shift we worked together and it was just fun and flirty. One of the other girls at work asked me if I wanted them to set me up with the girl I like (I didn't realize that she was cousins with the girl until after that conversation). I told her no, walked up and asked her if she wanted to go on a date myself, she said yes and gave me her number. From that point on, we've: gone out to get ice cream, went to get dinner after work, go driving around for a coupl

Should I [24F] not be embarrassed about pursuing an older guy [38M] on a dating app?

On CMB, I matched with a university professor who did his graduate studies at my alma mater. It wasn't difficult to find info about him online - he is absolutely everywhere on the web. He seems way too good to be true - Air Force grad, Ivy League PhD, very tall, athletic, and articulate. There are YouTube videos of him giving interviews. He asked to meet up and chat, but I said I was going out of town for a week (true). I asked to meet up the week after, and he said he was going out of town too, but that we could meet in 3 weeks. I double texted him one time and he didn't respond to my last message after he said he was out of town until late June. ​ I'm wondering if I should reach out to him in 3 weeks or if I should just not bother. I have never had to double text a guy, so I'm thinking he's not interested. It seems like an attractive guy like him has a lot of options. He's out of my league. ​ I'm asking my friends and they're saying he's way t

Is it normal to fall for FWB after just 2 months?

This is what happened to me, I guess (33m), after 2 months. I confessed to her, I said that I wanted her to be my girlfriend, that this situation isn't working for me anymore because I'm starting to fall in love; she said no, we're not compatible, that I'm 'too sensitive', that she didn't fall in love with me, that we were 'an experiment' to eachother etc. That's all fine and well, but when I went to say hi to her after some 10 days, she was acting very cold and indifferent. Perhaps she thought that I was going to try and be friends with her again. Or she simply got bored with me. I feel like a crazy person for confessing, for not sticking around longer, waiting for something to happen organically (if it ever could). I was really stressed out during our time together, because even if it was beautiful at times, I felt that she was out of my reach... I just don't know what even happened, how I came to this stage so quickly. And I think that i

[M] Why is it a put off if a guy says something is a deal breaker, but its also a deal breaker for you?

I really need a serious answer to stop my head from exploding. I have gotten several answered that even if a guy not wanting children is a deal breaker for the women, the guy saying, its a deal breaker sounds "controlling". To me it sounds bratty tbh, and something only immature people would say in the first place. If both people want the same thing, then why the fuck is it a turn off to either person to be open about it being a deal breaker?

How to transition from work friends to something more

Hello people! I'm 19 y/o male. For summer break I'm working as a lifeguard at a water park. I really like one of my supervisors, shes funny, cute, and smart. However, we only ever talk about work. Sure, we make jokes etc, but it never delves into our personal lives. I thought the best time to get to know her would be during lunch, but everyone has lunch at different times because of position rotations. I have only been working there for a week, and I have the entire summer to get to know her. ​ I have a feeling if we continue to get along we will naturally start to talk more about our personal lives. Also, she is technically one of my supervisors, but shes only a year older and their isn't that feeling of her being my boss. ​ Tips are appreciated! Thanks!

Give Him Space or Act Normal

I (33f) admittedly spasmed and messed things up with a solid guy (46m). I got insecure about stuff and caused tension. Last month I said I needed time away and then I reached out to him after a few weeks. He use to call or text once a day but since we've started talking again, he has felt distant and hasn't communicated as much. We sat down and he said he's just incredibly busy between his kids and his office is crazy for the next two months. I asked if we were back to normal, more than friends, and he said yes we are. But he called to say hi once this week. I don’t want to add stress by trying to make plans if it’s truly just him being busy but I’m worried there’s still tension. Any advice on how to proceed? Act like everything is normal. Call a few times a week, text every other day, do some nice things for him. Send nudes haha OR drop lunch once a week (something I typically do) but only text once a week and just hang back and give him space. thanks :) Submitted Jun

Dating as a Hard of Hearing person

Hey guys. I am hard of hearing. I have been going on dates the past year and a half but have been struggling making it past the first or second date. Most of the venues I have chosen are coffee locations, deserts or going for a walk around town. My question really is what are ideal spots that I can thrive when dating that can lead to second, third dates and a relationship? When on a date, I do struggle hearing the person talk sometimes and ask her to repeat it. I want to be able to understand what she is saying and make a statement on it. I am just curious if people in this sub reddit know better options or what I can do to improve. If you think that the places I've mentioned are good spots, then I'll have to keep at it!

Need advice on how to ask my crush out

I am M/14 and I am in the 9th grade (or school level). Also I'm rather shy so I would prefer to first contact my crush via text. She's F/14 (or 15, not sure), also not really outgoing and she's also in the 9th grade but she's not in the same class as me. (btw I live in Middle Europe) I've got her number from a student who's in her class but she hasn't got my number so I would have to tell her my name when I text her. She certainly knows me from a school trip where we sat on the same table during the meal times but we have not really talked. In school, she's always around her friends but she isn't really popular so I think I'm the only one who has a crush on her. But talking to her would still be difficult because she's around somebody most of the time. What's the best way to ask her out and to start a relationship? As I said I would prefer to start talking via text but I would also appreciate advice on how to reach out to her in schoo

She did it again

So I’ve been dealing with this girl who I like and she knows this. Originally I told her this but she had a bf. I didn’t care so we started hanging out more and fooling around anyway. She broke up with him after about a week so it was just me and her fast forward a couple months she tells me he has been talking to her and wants to start over. Since he was like her first everything I kinda understood and decided I’d just fall all the way back. Although we’d still text from time to time. After a while of that I couldn’t take it anymore and told her It’d probably be best if we didn’t talk any longer. This was last year. Not too long ago she reached out to me and we reconnected. After a while we just kinda started back where we left off. Everything was fine until one night we were chilling watching Netflix and she asked "what are we" and I replied "idk" and she agreed she felt the same. After that night I felt like the whole mood of our relationship changed. And not so

I want my wife to swallow and finish me off when going down on me.

When my wife and I were first dating she would go down on me and finish me off by swallowing . Now she wont even think about it. Last night she was giving me an amazing blowjob as always and I let a little slip as I was getting ready to pop. Needless to say she wasn't happy. Anyone else have similar issues or should I just let it go and be thankful she's still willing to go down on me.

What is Your ULTIMATE Sexual Fantasy?

Barring having sex with a specific celebrity, what is your ultimate fantasy/sexual situation? I’ll start: Mine is having sex with a blonde bombshell, who has a full bush. We’re outside in the woods and doing it doggystyle. I realize this is fairly tame, but for me it’s really hot. How about you?

Always bleeding even when I’m not on my period???

So I know this technically isn’t about sex, but since it’s a more mature topic I didn’t know where else to post this. I’m on birth control, I take it at the same time every night, and if I’m late on taking it, it’s never more than half an hour. I’m constantly bleeding, whether it stains my underwear, or if I stick my fingers inside myself. If I do happen to stop bleeding, it’ll start up again right after sex. I had an STD once about 2-3 years ago, and I took the antibiotics for it twice, as well as got a shot. I’ve only been with one guy since then, who also got tested and had the shot as well. I’ve been with him for almost 4 years now. I also have mild endometriosis, and the birth control I take is pretty strong to help with the symptoms. Do I just need stronger birth control? Could I have an STD again? Or is my endometriosis getting worse??

you are just as exclusionary as aphobes. You can’t be lgbtq+ if you don’t care about the issues of asexual people who are different from you. Stop gatekeeping. I can be asexual very easily. It's called being asexual. I am in no way meaningful way exclusionary. I just don't consider race important, and don't consider the patriarchy real. if an asexual is angry at all white heteros...then lol I wouldn’t blame them. I would, because that's sexist and racist. Your idea of what it means to be asexual is leftist. End of. Stop trying to force it on me. June 09, 2019 at 12:07AM

/u/tbabby on Gotem

See and there in lies the problem. I don’t think you realize that “normal” is based in white heteronormativity, patriarchy and cisgendered white men. It shouldn’t be that way. I view myself as completely normal. I’m as normal as it gets and I’m not going out of my way to make a political statement by being a black asexual. I’m just existing as normally as possible. It is the world around us has labeled me and other asexuals as abnormal. The fact that your response to my statement is “id rather be normal” proves the necessity of the movement and that people’s perceptions beef to change. The fact your response to this desire is “not looking to be angry” and “don’t hate white people” proves it as well. Who said anything about white people? I’m not angry at anyone but i’m willing educate. That being said if an asexual is angry at all white heteros...then lol I wouldn’t blame them. But I also encourage you to consider why a vaguely ignorant youtube comment sends you “into melancholy” but

/u/renee1016 on Be aware: avoiding/fear of touch it's NOT part of being ace

Just my input here, but my anxiety about touch came as a consequence of being ace. As a female, people dont usually touch you unless they have sexual feelings for you. Obvious exceptions like fam and close friends. Seeing it that way, I actively avoided touch because I didnt want to be in a position where I accepted any romantic or sexual intentions from anyone else. I considered it knipping the problem in the bud before it could be anything else. That's my logical reason after a lot of self inspection as to WHY I didnt want to be touched. And that doesn't mean I need therapy. It means I know my limits, what I want and what I dont. June 08, 2019 at 11:55PM
