I feel like every man I talk to only wants me as a fling that lasts 1-2 months. I’m 25F and I would really love to find a partner to build a life with. But I don’t know why men lose interest after a couple months. Does anyone else feel this way? How do you combat it?

9 months ago in a fight with my ex I told her she gave “trashy head” I tried to apologize and tell her she was the best at it and all that but she ended up rubbing it in my face how she’s sleeping with the guy I was suspicious about. About a week ago I ran into her at work as she is a client. We were nice to one another when we talked only about her procedure. However I still feel guilt for what I said. I was just 18 and was being immature. She’s much older than me and I’m wondering if she took that to heart.

How do I get the attached bestfriend not as attached? She has a boyfriend already ( in highschool btw) Submitted August 28, 2019 at 11:42PM How do I get the attached bestfriend not as attached? She has a boyfriend already ( in highschool btw)

Okay this is your generic post of the day, I know but it bugs me so much because I (M) have never had anything like this. We know each other for quite a bit and she has never been interested in me but lately she has been staring and me and when I look back she looks the other way (shyness I guess?), she also laughs in a more flirty way because I've never seen her do that. I wanna go for it before it's too late to regret it as she's maybe into me or gives up trying to hit on me but I fear that I fuck my relationship with her but I think that if I know how to deal with rejection is ok. I'm 18 and never got to experience the dating world so I appreciate if you could avoid the offensive comments.

So just alittle backstory, I was at the bar I usually go too after work, just having a beer before heading home. And theres this girl who usually sits at the bar too. I believe shes a hostess there but shes usually just at the bar when i see her. Yesterday she kept staring at me and looking away, we did the "whole lock eyes for 2-3 seconds" thing and she arched her back (which i guess means something sometimes?). I mean normally id just kinda forget about it but, idk, do you ever feel like you just have a moment with someone? I havent seen her since but I honestly would love to actually meet her and get to know her. This might be my first time experiencing this and if she is into me I just wanna make sure im not imagining things which could be 100% possible lol Also my other problem is her mom is the bartender when she is there so Im not exactly sure what my next move should be. I wanna be respectful you know? Someone please help lol thanks in Advance Submitted Augus...

My last post went up at like 2AM so I figured it’s more active rn lmao. I’m a pretty shy dude, I hate social events, I don’t like meeting new people. All of my friends I just happen to meet by chance, usually through school. I’m 19 (M) now and I’m becoming more and more interested in dating. I used to not care, but once I got to college I wanted that connection with somebody. I wanted to have somebody to spend time with, I felt that I’d been waiting so long and I wanted to try. Well I suck at it apparently lol. I’m not the greatest looking guy, but I’m not ugly either. I’m a tad overweight, but I actually look smaller than my weight would tell you. I tried tinder and struck out every time, that furthest I got was setting up a date once. Then I got stood up. Idl if I’m too forward once I finally decide to open up and talk, idk if I don’t talk enough. I think I’m just kinda awkward honestly. Like while it does take me awhile to muster up the courage to talk to someone, I don’t feel like...

Over the past month, I've (35 F) been on three dates. The first two guys were so sexually aggressive, pushing boundaries, sending sexts, etc. I did not sleep with either of them. After one or two dates both realized they weren't going to get what they were looking for, so they ghosted. NBD. Enter #3. Sweet guy, single dad with one child, great date, no pressure, ended with a kiss or two which to me is perfect, didn't need to really go beyond that. Anyhow, two days after the date he texted me and asked if I would like to come over to his house after his son (5 yo) fell asleep... I don't know what to think about it. Also... I can't imagine a "dad" wanting sex when his son is in the house, so maybe I'm misunderstanding. Is it ok to tell him the next time I see him, something along the lines of "I move really slow, so if that's what you want it's not me". What is best way to handle?

I know how it sounds but I feel like with the context it MAY be acceptable so the school semester has just started and we’re about a week in and I ended up sitting next to this girl I find to be rather attractive we ended up talking a bit I made her laugh and vice verse these past couple of days and I really wanna get to know her more but we holidays it’ll be 7 days before I get to see her again and I’m paranoid about her forgetting about me or what have you so I’m looking for a bit of an outside perspective on this Submitted August 29, 2019 at 12:04AM I know how it sounds but I feel like with the context it MAY be acceptable so the school semester has just started and we’re about a week in and I ended up sitting next to this girl I find to be rather attractive we ended up talking a bit I made her laugh and vice verse these past couple of days and I really wanna get to know her more but we holidays it’ll be 7 days before I get to see her again and I’m paranoid about her forgetti...

This is going to be long, but I want to properly explain the relationship. I am 23, and she is 18. We are peers at work; she's actually been there longer. We have always been friendly, and in the past few months, we have gotten closer. We and her cousin (also my friend) hung out once, and the next day at work, the girl was giving me extra smiley eyes, and there was a moment where her arm/body was unnecessarily touching my arm/body as we were standing beside each other for like, 8 seconds. Her parents kicked her out 4 weeks ago, and I have tried to become a strong rock of support for her. In this time, we have hung out alone twice. Once after my shift, at midnight. We ate fast food and talked for over 2 hours. The other time was when she wanted to be removed from a situation but doesn't have a car anymore (kicked out and cut off). She asked me to pick her up and take her to the movies; we ate fast food again after. During all this, she has been entangled with another dude. A ...

Ladies, help me out please. I need advice on how not to end up in the “friend zone” I am going on a date this weekend with a very nice and pretty girl. we only know each other on a quick “hello” basis (on a party for example). I (27M) she (24F). I’m always respectful, nice, and funny on dates. I can’t play the “douche” role (it’s just not in me). I always pay for everything, and I do all the classic gentleman stuff. I am a good listener and there’s always tons of laughs. The big problem is that I am not good at telling if I should make a move or not and I think this is part of the problem. Any advice? What not 2? What should i do differently? Submitted August 29, 2019 at 12:07AM Ladies, help me out please.

Had three long-term relationships that ended badly. Last relationship ended when I was hospitalized for depression and he couldn't handle it and left. I have a very difficult time trusting people to begin with. I suffer with Major Depressive Disorder, OCD, and Borderline Personality. I've been single for a few months now, and would really like to find a life partner. Tried Match, started talking to a guy, but freaked out when he mentioned his stance on body positivity and being overweight. I am by no means a thin girl. I'd say average, but even then I panicked and felt inadequate. Spent a few days thinking and decided I'm too depressed and terrifed to trust someone again. Ended up telling him that I am unstable and broke off contact. He likely had a few girls lined up anyways, so not like it mattered to him, but it still upsets me that I can't commit to anyone with being frightened that my illness and insecurities get in the way. Anyone else relate? Tldr: my illn...

Sorry for the repost! Background! Long story short, a few months ago I (22m) had feelings and she (24f) didn't. Said she wasn't in a place where she wanted to date (genuinely wasn't). She got into a relationship a while after that (couple months after not being in a good place to date) and I said I can't be just friends and went out separate ways, that was about a month and a half ago (they broke up kinda quickly). Present time, we're talking again but I'm assuming as friends. I’m mostly over her from the time away & fine w/ friends but wouldn’t complain if it were something more. We went out and grabbed dinner and she asked me if I was dating anyone. I said I wasn't dating anyone and she acknowledged it & I asked the same, she isn't dating anyone either. But my question is why? I’m thinking she might be because I said I can’t be friends w/ her and went separate ways, she prob knows I had/have feeling then asks that. But then again we haven’t s...

Would you consider a handy from a ~massage therapist~ be cheating? Submitted August 29, 2019 at 12:11AM Would you consider a handy from a ~massage therapist~ be cheating?

This post is a shout out to all the rejected people on here. If you feel negative about yourself, then I'm sorry. That shit sucks. This post is also a shout out to the people who are somehow doing 'ok' in the dating arena. That's great. Just dont think that you're immune to self-reflection and growth just because you found that 'person.' People get so complacent with themselves in relationships. For the rejected people like myself, it's hard to see that others could ever find you desirable. You wonder what's wrong with you. I wrote in another post that dating should never be the endgame. Growing as a person should be. It ideally never stops. Even when you're 70 years and above, your personal growth journey should never stop. Emotionally, it can also be dangerous to be in a relationship. Now that you have 'that person,' you may be tempted to coast on your personal development. Please resist that urge. The relationship you have with ...

About a month ago I [M29] overheard a conversation my GF [F23] had on the phone with her brother. I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but I heard her talking in the room next to mine while I tried to fall asleep. When I heard my name I didn't think much of it, but I really started paying attention after I kept hearing my name. She was telling him that she knew we weren't soulmates and maybe she was staying with me because she hasn't had anything serious since high school. She also said that I was too much of a smart ass (which is fair) but she also included that things were getting worse between us. She said it felt like we were more like friends than lovers. I thought it was wild, since she's planning to move into my place soon. She told her brother she'd be happy to move in, but in another room away from mine. All this broke my heart, but things seemed to be getting serious and I convinced myself I could change things. I never planned to tell her what I heard, but ...

It's different for everyone, but imo if you feel aroused - it's sexual, otherwise it's not. For some people even hugs or holding hands is romantic, for others platonic cuddling is a norm... Honestly, we should normalize non-sexual, non-romantic body contact August 28, 2019 at 11:57PM
