A General Red-Flag Guide If You’ve Been Dating/Getting Interested In A Partner That Isn’t Good For You!

So I’ve been around the rink a few times, before I ended happily with my soulmate and husband! My friends have been taking notes, and they’ve told me a bunch of information from their own experiences (plus observations from my failed relationships) They/You Complain About You/Them To Someone Else Constantly, From the Start This was a HUGE problem, according to my best friend. All of my failed relationships, there was something that was actually a detriment to a good and healthy relationship. (ei. they constantly asked for a poly relationship when you didn’t want one, they never put any effort into making you feel loved, etc.) As they say, things said behind your back is a better view of how people see you! A Lack of Communication That Effects Your Everyday Life One time, my ex got mad at me, for no reason, and didn’t tell me. This happened several times. This is why they’re my ex. If they don’t express what they want or what they need, they’re no different from a child, and you re...

Girl I’m talking to drunkenly made out with another guy 3 times.

I (M18) am going to be a senior in highschool this upcoming school year. From freshman year until now, this one girl (F17) and I have flirted back and forth and discussed the possibility of dating. Through those years, we would do our flirting thing but also see other people and talk to other people. At the start of summer this year, the flirting elevated and we really have gotten closer. We text and snap all day, and hangout whenever we get the chance. Although we aren’t officially “dating” we pretty much agreed to just keep it lowkey but act is if we are dating. She poured her heart out to me a few days ago and said all this sweet stuff, which made me super happy. I left to go camping with some friends over the weekend, and other girls were coming. She was on her vacation, but begged me to not do anything with the other girls camping with us, to which I obviously agreed. She came home from her vacation and went to a grad party the day after I left to go camping, and I told her have ...

I love you and I always will. nothing is going to change that. whatever comes our way, I'll fight with you till the very end. you're my only constant. you're everything to me... I'm shit with words and overthink everything I say, i just wish i could articulate how i feel about you, maybe you'd be able to see what I see in you. as much as people think that they know whats best for me manipulate my mind, or threaten and abuse, know that my heart will only ever belong to you.

/u/injusticehasbeendone on I don’t like these ads. They make me question if I’m supposed to want sex. Like I don’t, but is it just because I need some drug? Is it for people who like it but just don’t feel like it anymore? This sub has really helped me feel ok about not liking sex, but I guess society still disagrees 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hypoactive sexual disorder is a real thing. But as the ad said it's only if you are "struggling with your desire". The requirement of your low sex drive causing distress has to be met in order to be diagnosed with it. As an ace, I assume that you are fine with not wanting sex. So you are good. But I do agree there is totally a push to manufacture a larger market for these drugs than exist currently. Mostly aimed at convincing allo people that a decline with age in sexdrive or ability to have sex is abnormal and possibly bad because sex is fun. Rather than an evolved process to make sure most babies are born during prime dna mixing ages. Causing the distress required for diagnosis. July 16, 2019 at 12:14AM

/u/raptorqueen17 on APHOBIA - What is it?

I don’t know when exactly it was created, but I do remember first seeing it around at 2 months ago. Could still be fairly recent though. July 16, 2019 at 12:12AM

/u/Kafferty3519 on Asexual Instagram star Bianca was murdered by an incel, and her asexuality is already being erased by most people and news organizations. We need to start some kind of tag to prevent her asexuality from being erased from the discussion. We do experience violence, and that must be brought to light.

Nope July 16, 2019 at 12:11AM

/u/WoundedWolfgirl on APHOBIA - What is it?

Nah. "Were" is grammatically correct no matter the country, "was" is just the more common usage. July 16, 2019 at 12:11AM

WTAF Is Wrong With Me!?

I'm using a throwaway on the grounds that I might lose credibility in other subs due to my inherent(?) insecurities. Furthermore, in a testament to my willingness to be a decent person I'm putting the Tl:dr up front. Apologies for the incoming wall of text. I just needed to get this off my mind, and my chest, and solicit input. Tl:dr After a bunch of pre 1st date ghostings, I made adjustments and have gone on quality dates but now, I'm the "great" or "nice guy, but I'm not feeling any chemistry. Thank you and good luck finding the one." guy now. WTAF is wrong with me? [41M] Also, I'm getting too old for this. So the long story is, I've been trapped in a weird cycle of app/swipe dating culture for years. (I'm sure I was a beta tester for OKC.) I've done Bumble, OKC, CMB, and most recently, Hinge. (Not even a little curious about Tinder, as I actually WANT a relationship.) I did all the right things. I chose pictures that highlighte...

I have a bunch of Sex/Dating/Relationship questions

Hey guys, I have a bunch of random Sex/Dating/Relationship questions below: Being in a relationship just means being friends with someone and doing romantic things with them, correct? For dicks, do girls like them Circumcised (cut) or UnCircumcised (uncut)? Does it matter? Does it effect sex in any way? Which do girls prefer? Does it matter for getting blowjobs? I’m 22 years old. Is my dick done growing or can it get any bigger? How long does Sex generally last for? What does it feel like to get your dick sucked by a girl, suck on tits, lick pussies, and thrust a dick inside a vagina? So literally after sex, you ejaculate, and then fall asleep?

Help, 46M 1st date in a long time. Going with 41F.

Need help on where to go on my 1st date in awhile. I’m not into hiking or outdoor things so that’s out. There is not much going on during the week as when we are going Wednesday. I was thinking brewery and apps. Any suggestions would help. Thanks! Submitted July 16, 2019 at 12:08AM Need help on where to go on my 1st date in awhile.

/u/fulinelite on For the aces, do you care about our history?

I totally agree. I think that it is important for us to remember our history, because we are here & we've been here. I think that we can curb erasure by remembering where we began. July 16, 2019 at 12:08AM

/u/Puddleduck24 on Coming out to my Boyfriend?

Good luck. One of the things that helped me understand was actually talking to my friend who was diagnosed with lupus. She was saying is hard to understand what’s different now that she had it. And we spoke about how actually, only the label was different. She’d always had the symptoms but no way to understand or manage them. She hadn’t changed but the way she could take control of her life had. You haven’t changed. You just know more about who you are and you can use that knowledge to communicate what you want better.

They are closer to hemaphrodites really. Nothing like dieing to tree cum allergy. July 16, 2019 at 12:04AM

/u/SomeAceKid on Title

Oddly enough, the character looks like me. We out. Of the closet. July 16, 2019 at 12:03AM

/u/LoudLibraryMouse on "Hmm, we have a character that is perfectly happy not having sex or any romantic attachments at all. Let's give them a romantic subplot!"

I consider the forced relationships to be the modern take of jumping the shark. It's time to bail on the show before any good memories can be ruined for 'cutesy' crap. July 16, 2019 at 12:03AM

/u/KarlMarxIsSanta on For the aces, do you care about our history?

I think it's a shame so few know about our history. Exclusionists have ripped our community apart so it's very important to share our history and experiances to help those questioning as well as older aces July 16, 2019 at 12:02AM

/u/Kir-chan on How and When did you realize you were Sex-Positive or Sex-Repulsed?

I've always been horny. I've been horny since before I knew what genitals were for. Sex-positivity (foreplay positivity? Porn positivity? Because the act itself is meh) has always been built in. July 15, 2019 at 11:59PM
