I am an oblivious man wanting to try a social experiment. I personally attach everything with sexuality (which maybe I am wrong) but i think this is how all men think. I am wondering how women think. Do you attach sexuality in every interaction you have. I literally think subconsciously I ignore people I don't find attractive. I have been realizing lately this is probably wrong and am trying to change/gain an understanding of what Normal is? Is this just me?

I have been dating someone for several months now and while he is a very caring person, he is not affectionate and not very verbally expressive in making me feel close or safe. He equates affection to sex so only during sex is he very physically affectionate but that ends soon as sex is over. This is causing me to feel unsafe and missing that feeling of emotional closeness and day to day intimacy. I come from a very dry/no affection household and my last long term relationship was very unhealthy in every way so I struggle with how to feel safe and emotionally close to another person. He also grew up in a very dry home too. I have tried saying “I need more affection” but I don’t think he knows how to do that and where to start. He has asked “how do I make you feel more safe emotionally/physically?” but I wasn’t quite sure how to explain it. I recently saw in a show that a woman said she felt safe when her boyfriend put his hands on her waist and it kinda made sense to me but I don’...

I’ve been wondering this for a while and I want to know what people think. I get the not wanting sperm in your mouth thing. I really do. But once it’s in there, why not just swallow? What’s the use of spitting it out? I’m genuinely curious. ‘Cause of its for the taste, that won’t work. The taste will remain of you spit or swallow. And for the mess it also won’t work. It’s less of a mess if you just swallow. And you can’t get pregnant from it. So I am genuinely curious.

Hi. 22M here. I found a girl (19F) on Instagram in a totally random way. To be honest I liked her look so I followed her. Then she followed me back so maybe that's a sign or not. 😂 The big problem now is how do I actually start a conversation? I was waiting some good weeks until she will post a story with a song/quote/etc. to have something good to say but she just posts randomly or rarely selfies with her. I know I can just react with '😍' but I find it a bit boring. What can I say to a selfie with her without being boring? I also know that if she is interested, she will probably answer even if it is the most common or boring message, but I want to be different and unique. So, someone have any better idea?

I asked out a friend of mine at the start of the year but she said she didn’t reciprocate the same feelings. We’ve stayed friends (part of a friendship group). I don’t want to be pushy since she made her decision so I won’t ask her out / tell her how I feel again, but I’m not completely over her, I was just wondering if anyone had been in a similar situation. Do you think there’s a chance that someone could start catching feels or is it something that only happens off the bat?

Was at work been talking to a nice woman. I noticed a spark, and we kinda got more comfortable at work with one another. She thought she was going to possibly get fired. So she said “if I get fired, get my number from so and so. ( we were walking towards the bosses office, can not have phones on us at work, when this was said)We can stay in touch. “ I was like, “ok sure.” She didn’t get fired. Few days later, it’s Friday,everyone is leaving work. I walk up to her and say, “hey, should I give you my number? If you still wanna talk sometime?“ she smiled teeth showing like that. She says “Ya, I didn’t want to bug you about it. “ So gave her#. I am wondering. Even though I gave her my number and kinda tried to put the ball in her court, to call me. Well I feel like eventually I need to step up? Yes or no when should I proceed and maybe contact her, to open a line of communication, and possibly see where that may go, or not. Openly away from work, in our personal spaces. Kinda don’t wanna ...

I've always wanted love, but every time someone comes to me, it is as if all my emotions freeze up. And I can't feel what I want. I can describe it beautifully between two people, I can see it and I can feel it as a bystander but I can't create it. I can watch it as a spectator. So why can't I do it? I found a great person who now unfortunately I have to let go of. All emotions are like they are set up on purpose, as if they don't come natural. All my reactions are as if prescribed, and its only in rare moments I feel some kind of emotional reaction. When I start a relationship I always feel very empty, and I always feel better when I'm alone. But I still want a relationship even though I know nothing will work. I've had quite a variety of people before, and no matter how well they understood me nothing worked. My emotions don't seem to work properly. What is it? Help me to understand please.

I(M22) was talking to this girl(F23) that would regularly come to the bar I work at. I never asked for her phone number until I recently got it. She recently went on vacation and came back. I texted her kinda of desperately on the day she came back. I texted her quickly to come to my job and talk some more because I’m horrible at texting. Since then I haven’t gotten text back and made the effort to text her back. I haven’t seen her come to my job. Is there anyway I can recover?
