Me (28F), him (29M). Has anyone here in a LTR experienced not being very sexually fulfilled and attracted to their partner for the first period of the relationship, and had your desire and sexual attraction to them strengthen over months/years?

I (F17) started forming a relationship with a guy (F17) when I went over to a friends house and we ended up cuddling there, my head on his chest and his arm around me, and occasionally he held my hand and brushed the top of it. He’s an amazing guy that I’ve known for a long time and I’m surprised we kinda got to where we are since I just never thought about him besides seeing him as my bffs friend. However, since that night whenever we’re in a social setting, he acts platonically towards me unless it’s nighttime and we’re watching a movie again, then he’ll cuddle with me. I’m fine with it since I’m a little confused on where we stand and don’t mind taking my time to figure it out. However, I know he had a crush on my bff a month ago before she met her current boyfriend and he seems to look and talk with her a lot of the time we hang out. My bestie also seems hesitant and yet fully supportive of me seeing where things go, but also less so than she usually is (which may be because he’s ...

Just to begin with, there was this girl who lived in my city, but moved away to another country. After she moved away we began talking, and eventually said we had feelings for each other after a year and a half. However, we came to the conclusion that the logistics of a relationship wouldn't really work out, although I didn't want to admit it at the time. We didn't talk for a bit afterwards, and started talking regularly again. However, everytime I talk to her I all I can think of is how much I'd want to be with her. I try not talking to her for a week or two at a time, but she'll always message me and we start talking for hours at a time because it feels so effortless and I don't want to be mean and shut down the conversation. I don't know that she has many very close friends and I wouldn't feel right cutting contact completely, but I know I'm never gonna get over her if we're still talking all the time.

Hey everyone, I’m [M24] & I’ve just started seeing someone [F20] for roughly 3 weeks now. We both study the same medical degree and have floated around each other for most of the year as acquaintances/casual friends. On our ‘first date’ we realised we have a ridiculous amount in common; we planned to just go for a walk on the beach, but we ended up spending ~8 hours talking and vibing pretty hard with each other. The amount of overlap in our hobbies, tastes, opinions, etc. has been mind blowing and our conversations have flowed with ease ever since. After that first date, we’ve seen each other maybe 15 of the 21 days. Most dates end up being 6-10 hours (trips to waterfalls, drives, beaches, hikes, her staying over the night & watching Netflix, etc.) and neither of us have seemed to bat an eye. Heck, it hasn’t been intentional but we’ve seen each other every day for the past 7 days and it hasn’t felt forced or unnatural. Now I’m wondering though, are we putting the potential...

I tried OkCupid but I rarely found guys who were in the ace spectrum that were close to me plus I had to pay a subscription to access certain things. I know that I’m a monogamous person so I figured finding someone who wouldn’t care about sex would be ideal. September 23, 2021 at 12:49AM

Aro here. I have some reasonable amount of experience dating from before I figured it out but I don't pretend exactly understand all the intricacies of relationships. Still, here's my best advice. My recommendation if you were to use the more common dating websites/apps would be that you be very direct and up front about it. Stand your ground and don't hesitate to block people that don't respect you. You'll have to sift through a lot of people that aren't right for you. It will involve a pretty large amount of emotional effort, and so only you can decide if that is worth it. Alternatively, you can ask your friends to try and see if they know anyone that might be willing to go on a date with you, making sure to inform everyone not to expect a sexual relationship. You might feel a bit awkward but most likely your friends will be happy to help. If someone were to ask me, I know I could recommend a decent number of my friends. Don't be too afraid of rejecti...

Sex repulsed, neutral, and favorable are all things that someone of any sexuality can be. It has nothing to do with sexual attraction, just whether or not you’d be comfortable with sex or even if you might enjoy sex or not. You don’t have to have sexual attraction to someone in order to enjoy sex. Just like how you don’t have to be asexual to be repulsed by sex. September 23, 2021 at 12:46AM

Hi reddit! I started having sex just over a year ago, and needless to say, my expectations were A LOT higher. In movies, television, books, and media, sex is made to seem like a really amazing and awesome thing. The women are always gorgeous, and everyone is confident and sex looks amazing. However, whenever I start having sex, its always between me and another man. Why is this the case? Am I doing sex wrong? Submitted September 23, 2021 at 12:33AM Hi reddit!

My wife indicated that she would enjoy more dirty talk in the bedroom. She loves some playful name calling, dominance etc but after telling her shes a good little slut, I basically draw a blank. Any advice or suggestions I might add to my repertoire? Any good one liners you guys and gals use/hear in bed?

My husband has a very high sex drive, and maybe I should've seen this coming, I dunno. We dated for 3 years during which the sex was great and plentiful. In hindsight, I realized how much he dragged me to his level instead of meeting me halfway and I realized that I was compromising for his sake. But we were in love and I didn't want to be one of those wives who stops intimacy after marriage. I got a couple of promotions and now I have an insanely stressful work life. Remote work during the pandemic hasn't been helpful whatsoever. I think it's the stress that has got my lower sex drive even lower. We went from sex almost daily before marriage to at least 2 times a week. In the beginning, I made up for it by offering him blowjobs if he liked. It was faster and fun for me. But lately, even when I'm tired, it's becoming an expectation that is just frustrating. He's always horny, he's always very intimate even if I'm not in the mood, and then he pouts...

I am from India and as we have no sex ed, parents feel the need to not talk about these matters due to cultural issues and as we can’t trust google regarding these matters. I started masturbating around 3-4 months ago and do it about twice a day. But I’ve never before felt this kind of burning/painful sensation on the inner side of my penis which I experience after masturbation and I feel the whole day while peeing. It stays the whole day if I do masturbate on that day. Please tell me what to do. Thanks.

I dated a guy for almost two years and he cheated on me several times. I’ve had four kids all vaginal births. I am very much into sex and I want it all the time!! I saw a dr and a pelvic floor specialist and they all say there is nothing wrong with me. Of course they’re not going to say I’m stretched out... They’re just saying I am physically fine. So other than the fact that he’s an asshole, is it possible it’s how I feel to him? He’s well-endowed so I know that’s not the problem. Are there women who are a turn off when it comes to sex cuz they don’t feel that great? Submitted September 22, 2021 at 11:52PM I dated a guy for almost two years and he cheated on me several times.

Not sure how to take this. He texted me saying he had a lot of fun and jokingly hoped I wasnt too hungover. I drank a glass of wine but hadnt eaten so I was a bit tipsy.

So my (22M) ex (20F) decided to pester me over a few things and when we split I was already in a not so great place emotionally so it's been a solid 5 years since anything major happened between us. Being as it happens to be I have autism so I'm definitely not doing well on knowing signals when they beat me over the head. She keeps bringing up things like aphrodisiacs and stuff that she liked that I did when we were dating but she keeps bringing up her one coworker who is bouncing around the work place sexually. I'm kinda at a loss and asked if she could not word things flirty or to not bring up who she is interested in. Am I just daft or something?

Some context we had a date scheduled had everything set up time and place details were gone over and when the time came she did t show up and texted me about 15 minutes after the scheduled time to meet up and said she couldn’t make it. She messaged me a week after and was trying to have a causal conversation. How would you react?
