I (26M) just recently got out of a 9 year relationship and I'm struggling with trying to meet new people. Some back story on why I have no social skills. Ive always been fairly introverted and never been the greatest with approaching people, but I used to have quite a few friends that I'd get out and hang with. Throughout the first year of the relationship with my ex I ended up disassociating with pretty much everyone, getting rid of all social media and stopped doing a lot of the things I enjoyed. We always did everything together so i didn't notice the issues there until way later. She had self esteem issues and it made her uncomfortable when I'd talk to or spend time with friends, whether male or female, so over time I just stopped talking to everyone. After 9 years of avoiding developing any meaningful relationships or even having a conversation that amounted to more than "how are you today?" I'm at a loss as to how to approach people and hold a c

Around December I met this girl, she was amazing. Sporty, talks alot, cute, foreign. She attends a gym where there are alot of special forces men. When we started dating we enjoyed out first few dates. We both speak different languages but I mostly spoke hers. She had recently broken up with a guy who she had a 7 months relationship with but he went on a mission and cheated on her. My last date with her I was really home sick and I had bad vibes. So she rejects me. 20 days later she sends me a message that she thought about me. I was still pissed as she rejected me out of the blue. So I didn't react on it. A week later I start engaging in a conversation and I find out she's in a relationship with another force special lad. Out of the blue she sending me message asking how I am with heaps of cute videos of her. This time I react on it and hint I like her. She now stops talking to me. I am wondering what leads to this kind of behaviour. Saw her and the lad. He looks 7 years olde

title edit: wrong with me** sometimes here’s my story: i f(22) can’t keep a man. i literally cannot get a man to stay. it doesn’t matter what i do or don’t do, they always leave me for someone else. i’m someone who usually is emotionally secure, and emotionally available. i’ve dealt with most of my trauma, i’m really attractive, educated and like i’m really good with people. i’m typically good at getting what i want except a guy i like. it’s a pattern. honestly since i was 12. i meet a guy, he likes me, borderline obsessed and thinks i’m out of his league. i get to know him, and then after a few months, he dumps me....and 90% of the time get into a long term relationship with someone else. this is a pattern since i was 12. the only long distance relationship i’ve been in was a year long with a guy that i wasn’t really interested in. there’s been 8 guys that this has happened with since i was 12. i don’t like guys often but when i do, they typically like me back, then don’t, then d

Earlier this year I 25F started talking to a man 27M that I met online. It was casual and we planned on meeting but because of coronavirus and lockdown we haven’t been able to. Somethings that’s now very hard on the both of us. At first I thought meh whatever he’s just another guy, not based on personality or appearance but you know how it is with those dating apps...people ghost or just want to hook up. Never took the apps seriously at all. So time passed and we texted more and more. Texting then turned into calling/Skyping for hours on end. The texting is also all day everyday, he starts with a good morning text and a pet name. He’s very sweet and consistent, a combination everyone looks for in a partner. Well, boys and girls I realized recently the depth of my feelings and ended up hurting him bad. I won’t say how cause I feel just awful about it. Hadn’t been able to eat or sleep for a bit cause I missed talking to him and thought about him constantly. Anyways yesterday he texts

So I have a friend of mine who I have known for roughly 7 years and ever since we graduated, we became even closer friends, and we started sharing our failed dating experiences particularly through apps.This one day when we were together, he talked about how one of her school friends (who's 21, and i'm 26) has been sort of desperately finding someone particularly from my country of origin, and as he mentioned about her, I told him about the mutual friend of ours (and not about myself) who we can talk to about, but today, he called me saying he has some good news, which is he has found a potential girlfriend for me (obviously exaggerating at this point), but he goes on to say how he talked to that girl's sister about me and praised me in all possible ways and how perfect I could be for her. (I am that kind of a person who doesn't like this boasting about other and not really a fan of doing this stuff), and as he was explaining, I thought to myself as to what did I get

My insta is private, but if I do this I will certainly post it here! May 25, 2020 at 11:51PM

Do you think you're ace? Do you not feel sexual attraction? Want to use the ace label? Then you're a valid ace person, and you can make yourself a card to be a card carrying ace person. I wonder if we can bring in having ace cards... May 25, 2020 at 11:47PM

There's a difference between gay and asexual 😂 May 25, 2020 at 11:43PM

I am doing it more for fun than anything else, thanks for the info though c: May 25, 2020 at 11:40PM

If you google "sexual orientation test", it would be the first result. I'll leave here a link if it's allowed. sexual orientation test I should warn you, that test takes and calculates your romantic orientations as your sexual ones, so the result wouldn't be too accurate. But if you're thinking that it's better than nothing, you have the link. Thanks for replying! May 25, 2020 at 11:38PM

I have seen this everywhere, what’s the name of the test? May 25, 2020 at 11:35PM

I’ve been buying a flag each time I’ve gone to target. I don’t want them to not include Aces next year. Ah, capitalism May 25, 2020 at 11:18PM

You're welcome! I was confused about it for close to 6 years before I felt confident in my identity. It can be a bit difficult to understand fully, but I think I do now. My grandmother initially reacted that way but I explained it better and she understands now. I figure that I would have felt something by now if I was ever going to. May 25, 2020 at 11:12PM

The big 5th anniversary is coming up and I'm working on surprising my wife after she gets back from basic training, by renewwing our vows and a big ring (something we both agreed we wouldn't do initialy for financial reasons). I sorta cheated by looking through her search history of jewelry to see what SHE likes and it seems she likes the 3 stone (1 big and 2 smaller sides) rings. I was looking into the 5 stone (all same size) rings. Once I figure out the ring I can start budgeting the rest of the plans, this is just the FIRST big hurdle in the plans.
