I'm in quite the predicament

So about 8 or 9 months ago I (17M) asked a girl (16F) to something similar to a homecoming dance on a date and was rejected. She said that she wasn't looking to be in a relationship at that moment in time, however I suspect that it was a mix of her stated reason and me not being great at taking care of myself (think chubby short nerd who doesn't frequently shave, yeah, I cringed too). I've started working out regularly and have gotten skinnier as well as gotten on top of doing better with my hygiene. I'm still a nerd, but a little less awkward and less overbearing with my nerdiness. I want to ask her on a date, but I'm not sure if that is socially acceptable. It seems like she is flirting with me, but I am notoriously bad at reading signs like flirting. Should I go for it? Should I wait and ask in a few months? Should I take the L and move on? I really like this girl, she's super nice, smart, and down-to-earth. She checks off pretty much all the green flags,

People who use dating apps just to find friends..

Is this common? I met this guy on okcupid. I knew, not to sound shallow, just from looking at his pictures and reading most of his profile that he was probably a little out of my league. Incredibly hot. Very artistic. I decided to shoot my shot, so I sent him a witty message. This was back in December. We exchanged messages over the app for a few weeks before moving into texting. The texting was never altogether flirtatious. It was friendly, but in the beginning I thought it was just assumed that we were both attracted to each other because we matched on a dating site. I also thought it would turn flirtier once we saw each other. Before we met up for the first time, I asked him if it was a date or a friendly hang because I didn't want to feel dejected if it didn't pan out the way I expected, and I made a joke by apologizing if that was awkward to ask. He was super nice about it and said it wasn't a weird thing to ask, but that he wanted to keep it as a "mutual love f

Blocking a guy

So I blocked my fwb about a month ago because I didn't like the way he was treating me but I miss him so I unblocked him. I know some people think blocking is immature and maybe it is. I'm sure he knows I blocked him and I wanna text him but I feel like I might be rejected. Is it worth a shot?

Intelligence or looks

I'm not saying looks are not important just saying if average looks and high intelligent or really handsome and average intelligence Submitted June 22, 2019 at 12:10AM I'm not saying looks are not important just saying if average looks and high intelligent or really handsome and average intelligence

Dating while working (F27)

I work in a very demanding job, where I travel a LOT and am in a very male-dominated field (catastrophe adjuster). Like I won't see a female coworker for months kind of job. I deal a lot with contractors and roofers and construction guys. Usually I'm working like a dog and have little to no time to do anything else, much less date. And I always feel funny about the idea of going on a date with someone I met through work, because I try to maintain very obvious professional boundaries. As a result I havent been on a date in 6 months and the last guy I did not meet through work. On the very rare occasions that I do get asked out, I usually end up brushing it off. Obviously, the result is that I never go on dates anymore, or do anything with other people while working. Today a contractor asked me about 3 times to dinner/drinks/etc and while I didnt say no, I haven't said yes either. This is a guy I'll see once professionally and then never again , so it's not like I

Do men with a lot of access to casual sex find satisfaction in a LTR?

If a man has a lot of success in the dating scene - hooking up and having multiple FWBs - would a monogamous relationship become boring after the novelty wears off?

What can I do to make girls more attracted towards me?

Hi all, I would like to know what I (19M) can do to get girls to become attracted towards me and hopefully end up in a relationship. I haven't been in a single relationship to this day and I would like to be in one some day soon, I'm not in a rush and I'm not trying to seem desperate either. If you could leave some examples, tips or anything in particular that I should know that will help me out such as what to say, what to do, where to meet girls or anything at all is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Submitted June 22, 2019 at 12:25AM Hi all, I would like to know what I (19M) can do to get girls to become attracted towards me and hopefully end up in a relationship.

Suggesting a 2nd round without pressure/stress

Female here. Recently started hooking up with a FWB who was a virgin before me and is super socially anxious and shy. Need advice on how to suggest, in a sexy way, that I'm down for (and really want) a 2nd round without putting pressure on him or making him anxious about getting it up a 2nd time after a break. He gets shy and dips quickly after cumming so this needs to be brought up early. Like what can I say in the moment during round one that will suggest a round two in a playful way? Please help me wise people of Reddit. Submitted June 21, 2019 at 11:45PM Female here.

Any advice for a college virgin?

I’m painfully awkward, I’ve never had my first kiss either, never held hands with a girl and I’ve never even been friends with a girl. Pathetic, I know. While everyone was hanging out and slowly cracking their awkwardness shell, I was continuing to be reserved, shy, and just away from it all. Kids started to really start talking and getting to know the opposite sex back in middle school, and I remained the same — depressed and quiet. I never mustered up the courage to even ask a girl to hang out at the movies or anything of the sort. Throughout highschool even though I liked a few girls and talked to them in class (just small talk), I never could ask any of them to hang out outside of school either. Every year of highschool I always promised myself that it would be different and I would try to socialize and put myself out there, and every year I betrayed myself and remained painfully shy, with hardly any friends. The regret of it all just eats away at me, non-stop, 24-7. It’s honestl

How do women know if we're good in bed?

Men, do you tell women that the sex is good when it's not? I'm talking like mid coital groaning etc? I guess I'm convinced that I'm terrible in bed and men just lie to me Submitted June 22, 2019 at 12:10AM Men, do you tell women that the sex is good when it's not?

I (21F) don’t get turned on when I’m with my husband (21M) anymore

As the title says. I can get easily turned on by thinking about sex or sex with others, but when it comes to having sex with my husband I just don’t get turned on anymore. I love his body type, so I don’t get why I’m not turned on with him. We used to have great sex, but now it’s been rare and when it happens it’s not satisfying for me because I’m not turned on, even though my sex drive is higher than his. For more information, we’re both 21, been married for almost two years, together for almost 4. I’ve tried to get him into swinging, but that didn’t work because he doesn’t like to see me with other men. Any ideas on how to get turned on when I’m with him again? All answers are much appreciated. Submitted June 22, 2019 at 12:15AM As the title says.

My girlfriends vagina looks strange

It's wrinkly and stretched out and darkly colored, kinda like roast beef. I was reading that this meant she has had a lot of sex already, and I'm starting to get worried. I'm was under the impression that she was a virgin, which is what she has told me, but I'm starting to have doubts. What do I do?

Is it smart to use a condom for your first time?

Me and my guy we are considering having sex soon, but there are complications so i advised him to keep a condom in his wallet in case we found ourselves going for it. Here's the thing, its our first time both of us and i heard tales from my married friends about women contraception that made me hate the mere of idea of taking it as a birth control. So i said "just in case we couldn't stop lets keep a condom in reach" and he agreed. But now my so not educated about sex ass think that the pain will be double if we use condom? Ps: if you have any other advise for our first time pls add it, i can use anything!

I [21F] am a virgin waiting for marriage, but I can't stop craving sex/masturbation.

I [21F] am a virgin by choice and want to stay that way until marriage. However, the older I get the more my sexual urges seem to increase. I'm posting this from a throwaway account because I'm pretty embarrassed and have never talked openly about sex this way or allowed myself to. Lately I'm ridiculously aroused for no reason. Multiple dirty thoughts and scenarios run through my head in a day. Sex is all I can think about. I'm not someone who masturbates as I feel guilty about it. I did when I was younger without realizing what I was doing. When I quickly figured out what was going on, I stopped. I haven't touched myself in years. This is where I'm leading up to. Just last week, I was lying in bed when my mind started to wander again. Before I knew it, I was lightly touching myself. I told myself I would only let it go on for a few seconds, but lost control and ended up going all the way (non-penetration). It felt so good I did it at least three times more af

Should I give this guy a chance?

I've been single since November after a pretty tumultuous relationship and a really difficult breakup with my ex. Since then I've been on a few dates and had some fwb situations but nothing even remotely close to serious. Overall I'm genuinely enjoying being on my own, especially since this is a crazy time for me-- I just graduated college and will be moving an hour and a half away in a few days so a lot in my life is changing rapidly or up in the air. I had a night out with my roommates a little over a week ago and they had some of their buddies come through for it. One of them was a pretty nice dude, not traditionally someone I would be interested but not unattractive and not completely obnoxious. As the night went on and the drinks stacked up he got pretty flirtatious with me and another one of my roommates, at the end we exchanged numbers and he called me today to ask me out. Initially, I panicked and turned him down, blaming it on being tied up packing but now that I

I want to love someone but I don't want to taint them

I want to get to know this girl, there's some mutual interest, but the thing is she is different from me. Pure, innocent, vibrant, full of life and potential, and I really like her, but at the same time I don't want to taint her with who I am.

My ex popped up uninvited at my house, I almost fell for his game (again).

Haven’t talked to my ex (I blocked him) in 3 months. We ended pretty badly with him owing me 2k for a car I was selling to him. I “repossessed” it only to find out it had been wrecked. I was DONE! Two Fridays ago, he pops up apologizing and claiming he felt he owed me for the car. Ok cool, said he would come back with cash (I stupidly unblocked him). Never showed back up. Didn’t hear from him until Sunday as he’s supposedly going back out of town for work (which he does do sometimes.) I’m like okayyyy well just let me know when you’ll be back. Now he wants to talk about us and getting back together and blah blah RED FLAG #1. Says he will be back in town the following weekend for a funeral and we will “talk” then. Last Friday, he informs me he is back in town. I have prior events booked so I’m not available but let him know I will be on Saturday & Sunday. If anything just bring me the cash I’ll even meet you LOL. He says ok and will let me know what time. Radio Silence AGAIN. I
