/u/Ironically_Kinky_Ace on My Biology class had a zoom lesson on gender and sexuality today, and the teacher listed Asexuality!

Oh, I sure did. It's a small class so me and another Ace student actually mentioned it when the teacher was on that slide :) May 20, 2020 at 11:58PM

/u/hermionescat123 on Am I asexual? If so, am I supposed to come out?

hey! you can choose to come out if you want, but you absolutely don’t have to. I only really tell my partners/friends, especially because I do sometimes experience attraction/desire, but only with people I know very well. and you can choose to identify as asexual if it feels like it applies to you - no identity is an exact science. hope this helps! good luck!

im confused about a guy

So I matched with a guy on tinder a while ago, and I wrote to him first. We started writing long messages to each other and the conversation flowed well. We got to know each other somewhat and I think he's a really cool guy and that we have a lot in common and similar interests. For some reason neither of us were flirty or insinuated any attraction. It was all in a friendly manner even though I think he's good-looking and I'm not on tinder to make friends exactly. So we talked a lot consistently for a month and then he asked to meet me in person. The way he asked was a bit strange, he said something like: you seem like a sensible person, it would be fun to meet you. We decided to take a walk in nature. We met and we got along well, walking and talking pretty comfortably and I feel like we clicked. But there was mostly a friendly vibe. He asked me a lot of questions and seemed interested in what I had to say. At one point it got a bit windy and he offered a jacket, and we ...

Snapchat Flirt Question

So there was this girl I was getting to know on Snapchat who I thought was cute. It was cool we were getting to know each other. But then last night before I went to sleep I just snapped like a photo of my wall and my phone is doing that weird ghost typing thing and I tried to shut it off and it screenshotted my own photo. I didn’t think that was a big deal and the next morning she unadded me and didn’t even say anything. Was that my fault? Hers? What the fuck happened?

Trying to decide if I should tell my [27m] friend[25f] that I want to try being more than friends. We met on Tinder a year ago.

Honestly, reading this back, I sound like a giant simp/loser. But here it goes. So for a bit of backstory, we met on a Tinder date a year ago. It was a very pleasant evening, but I couldn't tell if she was into me or not, so I decided to not make a move. Since then we have done a lot of things together, concerts, gotten food, gone into the city, hung out at her place for video games/movies and we've gotten pretty close. We would talk about our dating experiences with other people and for most of last year, we were seeing other people. I stopped seeing someone in January and haven't been with anybody since, so admittedly I've gotten pretty lonely. In February, my friend and I went to a concert together and I started to seriously think about asking if she wanted to try anything beyond friendship (hookup, FWB or even dating) I was about to ask her at the show until a guy came up, started talking to her and she ended up leaving to go hang out with him. She asked if I was...

I (m/29) Have been having really bad dates after I shaved my head. I’m not sure what to do.

I was okay looking in my twenties. Nothing special. But if I had a date the date would follow through. I haven’t had a date in a couple months because it’s cold in Canada and Corona. But I’m slowly starting to bald. I shaved my head for a hair cut to get how it feels. The “quarantine” has listed recently and I went on a couple dates. Literally they lasted 5-15 minutes. They all found an excuse as there was an issue with my personality. But they are exaggerated points about who I am. I told one girl that I liked ayn rand and then she claimed we could never work out. I have no idea but this has really shot me in the self esteem. I don’t know what to do. I seriously think it’s the lack of hair and all I ever wanted was a girl to date. What do I do? I have no idea what I’m going to do when I’m fully bald. Submitted May 21, 2020 at 12:06AM I was okay looking in my twenties. Nothing special.

Should I try and contact a girl that I think had ghosted me?

Hey, So I met this girl on bumble a bit over a week ago and we where talking non stop, big paragraphs and just really getting along. We went on a date on Sunday and it went really well and she seemed really into me and after we kissed goodbye she said we should go on a second date. We where then texting and just talking and talking about setting up a date for Friday (tomorrow). She messaged me in the morning yesterday but hasn’t replied to my message and it’s been over 24 hours and we have plans tomorrow. She did say that she has a lot of studying to do but I’d imagine she would message saying “hey sorry really busy today” or something instead of just not messaging. I don’t really know what to do at this point as I really like her. Maybe her phone broke? Or the texts she’s sent just haven’t gone through and she thinks I’m not replying to her? I’m thinking I send her a text tonight asking if we are still on for tomorrow and if no response then add her on Facebook the next day so...

How often should I text this girl?

I’ve been texting this girl that I dm and it’s been a couple weeks since we’ve been talking. I try not to text her that often and take like a hour or 2 to respond sometimes or sometimes I’ll text back quick but I don’t want to sound to interested . But with this whole virus thing going on i don’t know what I should do, I can kinda sense her not texting back as often and I try to text her quicker plus she dropped her phone in water and has to talk to me on her laptop when she’s not working, how do I go about this Submitted May 21, 2020 at 12:14AM I’ve been texting this girl that I dm and it’s been a couple weeks since we’ve been talking.

Do not minimize

Sucks when your girlfriend or boyfriend minimizes your feelings and the way you feel and deal with some things that happen Submitted May 21, 2020 at 12:15AM Sucks when your girlfriend or boyfriend minimizes your feelings and the way you feel and deal with some things that happen

Girl stands me up and then ghosts me but just followed me on instagram and comments on my stories?

I'm a guy. We're both 30. ​ A year ago I randomly ran into a girl I used to know socially. I had a crush on her way back, didn't know her too well but she had a serious bf and we were just friendly. ​ So when I ran into her, she was really happy to see me. I was going out of town the next day but we talked, probably our longest convo ever. And she gave me her number and said we should meet up when I get back. ​ We text a little on my trip and she tells me she's exited to see me and she thinks of me often and is happy to have my number now. ​ I had no idea but felt there was mutual attraction and good chemistry and am excited. ​ I get back and am going to a free concert I thought she'd like the next night and invite her to come with. I'm going anyways because a friend is hosting and she agrees to come. I give her the place and time. She says she'll come and I leave it at that figuring she will.... She never showed up, never told me she wasn't c...

is this common in dating?

ive only had 1 relationship it lasted 7 months, my ex broke up with me then wanted to go back to "dating" i interpretated this as they wanted to get back together as we were still hanging out, having sex and watching movies, but during this time they had sex with someone else without telling me (i later found out) then a few weeks later told me they were actually seeing someone (different to the random person they had sex with) and i told them why didn't they tell me this? and they said they were seeing them for a few weeks now and they just acted like i meant nothing to them and just stopped talking to me . Felt really horrible like all those months spent together meannt nothing. like not even a sorry or anything is this common in dating and relationships? to just keep someone around and then discard them when u enter a relationship with someone else without any remorse or feeling?

Just got out of a +1 year relationship. What’s next?

When we met I was a 19 year old successful online entrepreneur, which meant I was making money from my phone everyday not working. We went on dates and she quit her job shortly after. We went out to eat every night for months straight and she got too comfortable doing nothing. I paid for everything and she kept smoking weed and not applying for jobs. I got her a computer and books to help her develop herself. It got to the point where I backed myself up and said we weren’t exclusive and we should see each other less so she could focus on herself. This led to insecurity in her part. She would fake scenarios to see how I’d react. Tell me we’re done having sex forever, she’s on a dating app, all to see my reaction which wasn’t true. She then went on to intentionally ignoring my calls. Intentionally ignoring my texts. This went on for days. And she told me we were nonexclusive. I was patient. I asked what was wrong, was reaching out again and again to communicate. I had some girl out o...

IDK

So I(32m) have a co-worker/friend(45F) who I have become closer with over time and I think I am developing feelings for her. I am torn between pursuing these feeling or just ignoring them. My main concern is that in the long run things I don’t think would work. We are both single, she has been divorced a couple of times and she has a 19 year old kid. I eventually want marriage, kids, and all that stuff. She in the past has said she is done with marriage when referring to past relationships. I don’t know what to do/ I feel I just needed to vent/ what do you think.

Breakups Over 30

I thought that being in my 30's, being less emotional and more practical, would make a breakup easier to bear. I've been through this before, I know the drill and I look at it from a very clinical stand point (love is an addiction and I am in rehab). Boy, was I wrong. I don't know if it's because it happened mid-pandemic and I have no support or distractions, or because it really was the first actual relationship I've been in since my 20's, but I feel like I am a pathetic 15yo with depression all over again. Dating in ny 30's was easier because I take no BS and rarely get attached. I got disentisized. I wish it was the same for when it ends. I guess you're never too old to have your what broken. Does anyone like being older made breakups easier or is it going to be this bad every time you open up to someone and it ends?

If a guy thinks he can do better, he won’t commit especially in OLD

How true do you think it is? I realized that if a guy thinks you’re the most beautiful woman he can get with, that’s when they commit - fast, so they don’t lose you. Average no longer cuts it with OLD because of the amount of choices we have these days. Even if they like you and are attracted to you, they still look for someone more beautiful. I noticed the guy I dated, was dating average looking women until he found his current fiancé and got engaged really fast but she insanely gorgeous so it makes sense why he went for it so quick.

Is this all there is?

I am recently divorced (34). During the one year of separation that is state law, I began dating a man in his latter 30s who was also finalizing a divorce, however, his had dragged on for several years. After 2-3 months of dating, he canceled plans we had made for an international trip. I was crushed. He told me he wasn’t ready to commit, had moved too quickly, and needed time. Then the cycle of dating off and on for the following several months ensued. I admit, I allowed it. After months of the back and forth, I cut things off. Within a few weeks, another man (35) asked me on a date through OLD. This guy had been divorced for several years. I thought we were really hitting it off and moving toward something good when he stopped short a few weeks later and said while I am an amazing woman, he didn’t want a relationship at this point in his life. While they are both different men, different personalities, and I know it’s only two examples...I am starting to really get discouraged that...
