I (30F) have been seeing a guy (30M) for about three months now and for the first two months things were going great and I was pretty damn infatuated. Then, out of the blue, I just sort of started feeling frustrated over small, stupid things that either didn't bother me initially or that I found cute in the beginning. As far as the relationship itself, nothing has happened at all -- no fights, no deep, dark secrets revealed or anything of the sort. ​ I've just found myself mourning the abundance of free time that I had when I was single, feeling annoyed about relatively minor things (him interrupting me/overtalking me and not getting the hint when I proceed to try to finish my sentence -- he literally just continues to talk over me). At this point, he's way more into me than I am into him which is the exact opposite of how things began. ​ He's been a really great partner aside from some traits that have started to grate on me (i.e. the overtalking and being really

Ehhh. I tend to be wary about all those micro labels tbh. They sound pretty made up and illegitimate. July 17, 2019 at 12:21AM

As a person with autism spectrum disorder, I find it offensive that in our hubris we have forgotten that the only true spectrum is that of a Prism and light. Thus we are not the ones who get to decide whether something falls on a spectrum or not. July 17, 2019 at 12:17AM

I’m a M23 and she’s F26 I just graduated college and I in no way have my life together. She has her life together is a single mom and we have been dating casually for about two months. I like her a lot and things are going great I even sometimes spend time with her kid and that’s fine but the whole situation ultimately makes me nervous I feel like I’m not responsible or ready or something to be in a committed relationship with someone with a kid but I don’t want things to end.

23 year old guy here, I dont get out much or meet new people ever. Never been in a real relationship. Now just lonely and depression is getting worse. I dont think I'm to bad looking from what i hear but whoknows... I'm in fairly good shape, have my own place , educated (4 years of university and a good job in my field), so I dont think I'm all that bad in those regards? I work in a fairly professional setting where the average person has kids around my age so I cant really make friends at work to well, I cant drink so going out to bars alone doesn't seem like an option, all my hobbies are different than %99 of people my age. Tinder and similar apps havent been doing me any good. Afraid if this keeps going I'll just start feeling even worse therefore making girls want to be around me less. I live in a fairly small city so there isnt a whole lot to do, even if there was what could a single person with few friends do to possibly meet a female? Even a friend that didn

So I (21F) met this guy(22M) on OkCupid and we've been dating for like 1 1/2 months now. He seemed super sweet and kind at first, but I'm not so sure. On our dates he doesn't talk much. I feel pressured to guide the conversation because he doesn't talk about anything, just comments on what I say. He doesn't ask questions about me or anything, not even the basic stuff like asking when my birthday is or if I have siblings. And, sometimes he seems annoyed that I'm even talking and appears to be distant. Not distracted, but distant. It's frustrating but he swears he prefers listening. I mentioned this to him and the fact that he seems not to remember what I say. His first explanation was he has short term memory loss from a medication. The next explanation that he gave was that we'd learn about eachother over time so we don't have to ask eachother questions. The third explanation he gave was that he's "trying his best to get to know me".

So there is this girl I like and we used to hang out after work alot when i visited her office (we are at different offices) and she left the company. Last time I saw her was two months ago and we had brunch together and after that she left out of town for her birthday with family. During her trip I noticed she blocked me from viewing her stories but I can see her posts and profile and she also looks at my stories when I post. I want to ask her out to see if I good terms and know if I still have a shot cause I really have a interview out of state and I am worried if I get it I will miss my shot with her or get my closer. I just want to know and maybe say how I feel cause really if I am leaving the state why not just say how I feel and see but again I don't know how to ask her out without being so straight forward like " hey long time want to catch up?". Anyways I just don't know what to do in my situation. Submitted July 17, 2019 at 12:08AM So there is this gir

Im a (21M)I have this huge crush on a girl (20F) that works security at my job. I have no idea how to start talking to her. I go in everyday and scan my badge and see her working front desk security doing her job but that’s about it. We aren’t coworkers that share the same workspace. I have thought of just going up to her and start talking a couple of times but I end up getting cold feet. I get anxious around a girl I really really like. Im usually a quiet person and don’t really talk unless I’m spoken to or I need to. A couple of days ago I found her on FB via suggestions and Ive thought about adding her to start talking to her but I feel that might come off as weird. I have no interactions with her at all. The only times I’ve interacted with her was at orientation and when my badge clip broke and had to get a new one from her which was a couple of months ago and very brief, also some eye contact if that counts. I could use some insight/advice on what I should do. I really like he

Just real quick - we’re both 25 and have been talking for about 6 weeks. We see each other every weekend but because we live about 45 mins from each other once a week is all we’re doing right now. However, we were texting way more frequently a few weeks ago and now it’s almost hours between responses. I’m not saying I need constant attention but is there a reason for this pull back? I just feel like since we don’t live near each other I need some other kind of communication to keep things moving.

There’s this girl that I’ve known since elementary school. We were somewhat friends in middle school, didnt really speak in high-school and we have spoken here and there through social media over the years. Currently I dont follow her on insta (i did in the past). So I wanna ask her out, but it seems weird for me to be like “hey whats up?” Or something, rather than just being like “Hey this is really random but I was wondering if you wanted to get coffee some time?” Submitted July 17, 2019 at 12:20AM There’s this girl that I’ve known since elementary school.

This girl is amazing to me , she makes me so happy , she is the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen in my entire life , so let’s get to the story....I’ve known this girl for years, 3 years actually....and I’ve always been her shoulder to cry on , she told me she feels like she can be herself when she is talking to me or around me she also has had severe depression and she told me if it wasn’t for me she would have ended her life long ago ,and I’m happy about that but....every time I try to push a relationship it’s like she doesn’t want it , I beat myself up over it all the time because I feel as if I’m too ugly to be someone she would want to love, she asked me to prom 11th grade year and everything I just don’t understand how I’m not enough, is there a way she will fall for me in the future. Because it hurts so much that she just won’t love me back......she also dates other males and tells me about it , she knows that I’m deeply in love with her , but it’s like she doesn’t even care t

It's pretty clear we like each other. We flirt, we've kissed but haven't gone a proper date. I'm thinking about asking her out to ice cream and kinda just winging it from there. I'm not sure if I should ask her the day of or plan it out? I was thinking about asking her on a Friday and if it doesn't work that day maybe we can try to plan it out during the weekend. I also don't know if I should be picking her up from her place. I'm driving and I've been to her place but wasn't sure how it works with parents lol. I've never dated a girl with parents that are together so it's never really been a concern about just showing up at her place. All my exes had single moms and they were either absent most of the time or really liked me.

Hey Reddit, I'm [23F] wondering what the deal is with men I meet on Hinge/Bumble who always respond to texts within ~5 minutes, no matter how long it takes me to respond. I can't always respond at my job, or I'm cooking/running errands/hanging with friends and sometimes take 2-3 hours to respond because, well, I have things going on in my life beyond dating. (To be clear: if I'm just sitting around or if we're trying to make plans, I don't take hours to respond.) When guys always respond right away, I can't help but picture them just sitting on their phone all day waiting for me (or anyone else) to text them. I recently met a guy that's a super quick responder. We had one date and I want to see him again, but should I be worried about this texting? I'm interested in starting a serious relationship and am willing to invest time getting to know someone, but at this point in my life this guy isn't my number one priority--and I don't want to be

Hi there, I hope you are doing great! 24/yo hetrosexual male here. I think my natural looks are average/good but one thing I dont like is the colour of my teeth. They are pretty yellow and and has almost a darker colour than my skin. I know it would boost my apperance to get them whitened, but would this have any significant effect on attracting women? I know looks matters but arent nearly as important for women as for men. I know me feeling more confident about my apparance could make me indirectly more attractive because of the confidence it can provide. There is still a part of me that is a bit hesitant to do it because I feel it would be more benifitial in the long run to accept myself as I am. What are your thoughts?

did I just get the longest label? July 17, 2019 at 12:08AM

I just don't understand why I would want to have sex, but then not feel it for anyone. It's common enough that we have specific term for that: "cupiosexual". It's in our glossary. https://www.reddit.com/r/asexuality/wiki/definitions Of course, that's just a "micro-label". If you're cupiosexual, then you're also asexual. It's basically a subcategory of asexual. July 17, 2019 at 12:07AM

your username is cool too July 17, 2019 at 12:06AM

"you are SEXUALIZING CHILDREN by saying that it's out of the ordinary to NOT experience sexual attraction at such a young age." wtf? they're saying that it's "not normal" to be ace? uncommon? sure. abnormal? definitely not. are they just saying anything that isnt straight is not normal???? July 17, 2019 at 12:05AM

I mean, identifying as ace at 14 doesn’t necessarily mean you are going to turn out to actually be ace. It COULD just be an age and development thing. But if I’m ace at 28, I was just as ace at 14, just like anyone who’s gay at 28 was gay at 14 even if they weren’t really into anybody at that time. People are often unsure about their sexuality when they’re younger and sometimes misidentify it. Nothing unusual or wrong about that. But just because it can be hard to be sure when you’re young doesn’t mean it’s impossible to actually be a different sexuality. Even if you only become sure about it later, you still always were what you are. July 17, 2019 at 12:04AM

I mean, in a hormonal way. My OCD as well as other mental health problems I had in the past (but are resolved) have been very draining in the past, is it possible they just screwed with my head? Or maybe another similar reason? I just don't understand why I would want to have sex, but then not feel it for anyone. July 17, 2019 at 12:02AM
