I'm gonna try keep this brief for my own sake... But I've liked this girl for a while and recently I had decided that the next time I saw her I was going to admit that I like her, but she recently said that she is going to a different country for university and most likely a teaching job while I'll be staying here . I honestly feel so defeated, do I tell her anyways or do I just not tell her and essentially give up? I've been sitting here for an hour because A) I thought I had a slight chance and B) I don't know what to do anymore.. After going through a lot of bad relationship shit I thought I would've had a chance at something nice Submitted April 14, 2021 at 11:58PM I'm gonna try keep this brief for my own sake...

I'm a 21F and I like a bisexual guy 21M who has a preference for men. We have only talked a couple of times and I really like him. I want to know what are my chances of having a relationship with him and I do not want to assume anything. What should I do.

Hello! I am talking to this guy who’s in another country, he’ll be back in the states in a few months but we never met in person, we kinda just started talking kinda as friends out of nowhere We established that we’d get to know each other and see what happens from that After a few weeks of sending long texts to each other back and forth he asked if we could FaceTime and we did. It went well, and he wanted to FaceTime again so we did again and I think it went well again. The problem is the two times we FaceTimed, he kinda pulls back after our call. Tbh I pull back too cause I’m waiting for his move to see if he’s still interested in talking to me. But for a day or two after our call, he wouldn’t text me as much and would take longer to respond until it picks back up and he starts responding to me quick again with long texts. I haven’t dated much in general, especially in this way where I get to know the guy through text/FT before meeting them, so when he does this, does it mean h...

Now, I’m not totally against the whole sugar daddy/baby thing when I see it. It’s like, “hey atleast they both get something out of it” but I personally dk how to feel about ... ig exploiting myself (if that’s the word)?? I can count on one hand how many times I’ve even sent nudes to a partner, so idk how to feel about sending pictures to someone for money. I feel that it’s wrong, but I also think like “shit go for it”. One reason why I’m considering (after being asked many times) is bc I actually like our conversations. I have anxiety, but he makes me feel pretty chill and always understands what I’m trying to say, so maybe doing this will open a door to something more?? I sound so dumb and maybe it’s the covid isolation-desperation talking.. idk man. There are so many things running through my mind rn, I have no idea if I should officially decline or go for it.

This is now my 4th attempt on dating apps, mostly bouncing between Tinder, Bumble, Hinge etc, and once again it feels like I am just wasting my time and money. The latest attempt has been on Bumble, and getting any likes at all has been like pulling hens teeth. I've had one match in the last 4 days and it had to be a spam right swiper because I never received a greeting message even after extending the time another 24 hours. ​ The ratio of men to women on these platforms has become ridiculously one sided, and I have many questions; Are women in general just becoming less and less interested in dating, and if so what is causing this? Are standards becoming too high? Do you have to straight up lie in your profile about certain details in order to be more appealing? How the fuck did we even succumb to this cynical "window shopping" form of dating in the first place? It is just incredibly frustrating not even being able to get the chance to get to the "hello" sta...

I really want to know the people's lifestory who went from having zero girls interest in them from having a lot attention from women. What did you do? Right now, I'm 23 years old. My last relationship last 2 years and I have been more than a year without sex. I am a 175 cm tall bald guy that workouts often. In my free time, I am a volunteer firefighter (just came from a wildfire lol) and I love to play videogames. Next year, I will finally become a medical doctor. I know this sound as needy, but it sucks I get 0 attention from women. Women are not my purpose, but I am tired of monk life.

I know the immediate reaction is going to be yes. But I basically have a crush on one of my friends. I have no idea if she likes me back. Probably not because of the age difference (I’m 23, she’s 31). I’m working myself up to telling her, but don’t want to ruin the friendship. In the meantime, I’ve gone on a couple dates with a girl my age from Bumble. I don’t know how I feel about her yet. I have a feeling she’s into me. But I don’t think I can give this a chance until I know that a relationship with my friend isn’t a possibility. ——- So I was wondering about the ethics of this. And what you all have to say.

I'm back after 4+ years and things have changed a lot. You used to be able to scroll through all the profiles and read a few paragraphs about each person but now it's 3 sentences about their favorite food, hiking, and a joke 😩. Are any popular dating apps more old-school? I got a million matches on Tinder but it just felt gross and unexciting.

So a guy I’ve been on one date with (whom was quite rude to waiter on our first date so I wasn’t super eager to see him again) asked me what days I was free this week for a second date. I told him Wednesday (Today). After I told him the day I was free he said “maybe we can see this concert” then completely changed the subject and we go back to talking about other things. He then didnt text me for two days. Today, I don’t hear from him so I assume that we are off. We never made concrete plans, he never told me he bought concert tickets, and I hadn’t heard from him at all until today. At around 5 PM he texts me a ton of question marks and an eye roll emoji. I reply saying “what’s up?” And he says “Seriously? We had plans today.” I’m in complete shock. Mind you I haven’t heard from him in two days, also we never actually made plans with an actually time or place. I tell him “ I assumed our plans were off, because I hadn’t heard from you and we never had a time or place or activity we dec...

I read the top half as SFX. It took me a moment to realise that no, this wasn’t a meme complaining about the lack of good hugs in a particular game, but an incredibly relatable meme in an ace subreddit For any of you who like/want hugs, I give you many free ones :) April 15, 2021 at 12:03AM

Oh neat, same.I was starting to feel left out. April 14, 2021 at 11:53PM

“Asexuals arent oppressed!” They say, oppressing asexuals. This is a problem for a lot of “straight passing” people like bi, pan, omni, demi, ace, etc people, that people think being able to pretend to be straight means we aren’t oppressed. Sure im not going to compare my struggles with those of a gay man in Saudi Arabia who was executed, or a lesbian subjected to corrective rape, but they’re real. April 14, 2021 at 11:51PM

He was honest that he felt sex was a chore. If you can find his kinks and gets him excited maybe you could do better than his previous exes, but I suspect probably not. Zero out of 4 so far for him regarding sexual enjoyment not good odds. If he isn't wowed with sex, at least you know it is truly him. And not you. April 14, 2021 at 11:36PM

I had my first kiss when I was 21, then I didn't kiss anyone for like 14 years. I don't personally enjoy kissing. I have had sex, which I enjoy, but it's a lot of trouble, and I'm fine without it. It seems like you're figuring stuff out a lot earlier than I did, so good luck to you in the future. April 14, 2021 at 11:20PM
