I had a good first date with a great guy 2 weekends ago. We met up for lunch and ended up talking for a few hours, up until the restaurant closed for the afternoon. However, he’s a consultant and is on a project right now that has him away until early October. So far, we’ve texted each other every day. We each send long texts about our days, and about random things too. We match each other in terms of text length and cadence of responding, and ask questions to keep the convo going. However, I’m a bit nervous about being able to successfully keep this up for a month - what if the convo goes stale? It’s essentially trying to have a LDR type of deal (except we’re not official) but we’ve only met once in person! Presumably and hopefully, he’ll want to see me again. I take it that the fact that he’s also sending long texts and we’re responding to pretty much every line we each write means there’s mutual interest. What advice do you have to keep the momentum until he’s back? What are s...

I’m not sure what I’m needing/expecting out of this. I feel absolutely lost and broken and I don’t want to talk to my friends or family about it. I am due to have a baby in 3 days. Obviously I’m already anxious and my hormones are everywhere as it is. Things at home have finally spiraled out of control and I don’t know what I should think about it all. I made it very clear to my husband that I wasn’t comfortable with him doing activities away from the house in the couple of weeks leading up to my due date. He’s an avid golfer. Well last weekend I gave the OK for him to go sky diving for a buddy’s bachelor party....I wasn’t comfortable with it, but didn’t want to be a “mean wife” so I told him it was fine to go. Made it very clear that I really didn’t want him doing anything else after that on the chance that I could go into labor at any time and I needed to feel like he would be there and available if that happened. He left two days ago and hasn’t been home since. Back story: he ha...

So me and my bf of 2 years broke up for about a few days over a big blow up; I told him I was done and I blocked him off everything. Then a when talking about things and trying to reconcile he said on everything that he loves that he didn’t msgs any girls at all etc and that he’d show me his msgs to prove it and whatever. A disclaimer as well, in the past he has lied plenty of times about things like this and he knows how I feel about him lying straight to my face NOW and we got back together in May and has been very rocky ever since cause I have very big trust issues with him and he promised he wouldn’t lie anymore or msg girls or any of that . He has been trying really hard to show and prove his loyalty to me- had his passwords to his social media, has deleted girls off his social media, if I was suspicious of something he would prove it 100% and all of that. And this time around after talking and hanging out the whole day, in the morning I was looking through his phone (he let me l...

Wow you’ve were around before bts and exo started to dominate everything (no shade, I love them but wow their fandom sometimes is a mess). I got into kpop around 2014/2015ish so not as an “old” stan . You and my girlfriend would get along well! She loves Day6 and Got7 a lot! I’m more of a girl group stan tbh haha, but nct and shinee are exceptions :D September 02, 2019 at 12:20AM

Ok, I’ll go look at it September 02, 2019 at 12:20AM

Ayy bi-romantics unite! September 02, 2019 at 12:17AM

Tomorrow is fine. As long as we aren't chatting while you are in class, anyway :) September 02, 2019 at 12:14AM

definitely puns. check out my reddit name. September 02, 2019 at 12:13AM

Not just puns, but sh*t humor in general. September 02, 2019 at 12:11AM

Thanks. This is been the hardest year of my life so far but it feels good to have someone support me. Are you ok if i start a chat then we can talk tomorrow? :) September 02, 2019 at 12:08AM

Mine was probably replaced with axolotls and dragons. September 02, 2019 at 12:07AM

I just try not to think about it, focus on the present, and hope for the best...which isn't the best advice, but it keeps my spirits up a little bit. September 02, 2019 at 12:07AM

There is nothing wrong with learning more about yourself or your sexuality at 14. That is actually a very common age to be doing so. There is also nothing wrong with realizing that you, right now, may be asexual, no matter your age. This is important to remember because one of the most common responses asexuals under the age of 30 get is the whole "You're just a late bloomer. Just wait, you'll see" speech. Fact of the matter is, it doesn't matter whether or not your sexuality may change in the future, because it doesn't affect what you are feeling in the present. As for whether you tell your parents or not, that is completely up to you. I don't know your parents, so I can't really tell you what the best course of action is. Just remember that, whether you are ace or not, there is nothing wrong with you and you have nothing to be ashamed of. Be proud of who you are. Also, feel free to message me. I'm not sure how much help I can be, but I will...

Yeah, realizing I was bi was easy. The friends who gave a shit were chill. Telling people I'm ace, but I have a romantic orientation too (panromantic pride), when many people just say those things don't exist... that's hard. September 02, 2019 at 12:01AM

that's really interesting. for me, it's the opposite; vibration is the only thing that has ever felt good, and with penetration i'm just like "how? how do people think this feels good??". haha. i think i'm starting to get though that libido works different for everyone, probably even allosexual people. i'm a little bit jealous of people who have had intense orgasms...i at least want to know what it feels like lol September 02, 2019 at 12:00AM

This explains soooooooo much. September 01, 2019 at 11:59PM

It’s hard for me to find another person who likes to dress up at renaissance fairs especially a guy. I finally found one and he is the one that actually brought the topic up not me. I was so happy when he mentioned it. Now I want to do all I can to keep this going. I know it has to be mutual but I’m looking forward to seeing what will happen. He texts me once in a while so fingers crossed. Submitted September 01, 2019 at 11:50PM It’s hard for me to find another person who likes to dress up at renaissance fairs especially a guy.

Things got hectic for one at work. 2 ghosted after setting the date. 1 rain checked. Apart from these, most conversations seem boring. The ones that seem interesting, people eventually stop responding. I understand that people are busy with their own lives and no one owes me anything, but I'm just disappointed right now. I'm in grad school and that keeps me busy most of the time so dating apps seem to be the best option for me to meet someone. 24M here, if that makes a difference.

I thought I would give online dating a try so I created an account on one of the free online dating sites. Almost immediately I got a bunch of chat invitations and other profiles asking me to click on random links (I'm a guy). These profiles are clearly automated bots, since supermodels probably aren't sending text invites within seconds of someone registering. Are all dating sites filled with bots like this, or are some sites filled with more actual people?

This dude and I have been texting on Tinder now for around 2 weeks. The texting has been decent, flirty and fairly entertaining. I've really been enjoying messaging him, which always makes me feel a bit anxious about potential hurt and disappointment. So, we haven't yet met due to me being away the first week of texting, and due to him being busy moving house. I have suggested going for drinks twice now, to which he has said he will arrange something with me once he is sorted. He moved in fully yesterday and still there seems to be no attempt to ask me out, in fact the texting has slowed down on his part. I've asked what he wants out of Tinder and it's, like me, just seeing what happens, meeting people, etc. I'm just struggling at the moment with the uncertainty of meeting him, I'm feeling more and more anxious that he is losing interest and if he wanted to see me, he would have arranged something already, because that's what I would do. I also feel like...

A bit of context, this girl (F22) is someone i (M23) met months ago in a college internships we worked together for a bit while por imteracting much other than Standard politeness/friendlyness Then some months later she comes back here amd we start actuslly talking more, going for dinner together and friendly texting, laughing together etc...for a month I am a guy that has been antisocial and anxious most of my life only making significant improvements recently, and i have some doubts 1 would it be "friendship co.promising" to ask her out now after a month of hanging out? Did i let too much time pass And 2 this is the biggest one: i am leaving in 4 months when the year ends and trying going for a serious relationship that will likely last so little feels like it May be wasting our time, i kinda feel weird about this part I think i may need to look at this more casually and not in A "find the love of my live" way but it feels odd Thoughs?

I'm out of state working with a bunch of people from all over the country in a temporary job where we will all be going sperate ways in three months. There's girls here I'm attracted to. How do I find out if they would be interested in a hookup while we're here without coming off creepy, a perv, or just plain awkward. Also, what age limit is too young to approach about a hookup without looking like a creep. Most people here are in their early to mid 20s.
