/u/ZanyDragons on What’s the dumbest “reason” someone’s ever given for why you’re asexual?

I’ve had plenty of guys and at least two women ask me if I was interested before, not to be overly cocky but if I wanted it I think I would have a decent shot at getting it. 😂 I just DONT WANT IT. January 10, 2022 at 03:36AM

/u/shionthekid on I wish there was an explicitly ace song

Try Skull Puppies "D&D + Asexuality" January 10, 2022 at 03:35AM

/u/Shadeofawraith on I want to know my parent's views on aromanticism/asexuality to eventually come out to them but I don't know how to bring up the subject. Any tips please?

I would just ask them what they think and when they ask why you brought it up just say that you read/saw something about it and wanted to know their thoughts. January 10, 2022 at 03:32AM

/u/RandomDragonExE on I finally have my first Asexual book!

Is he backing up, busy or waiting for my initiative?

I (f,24) recently got out of long relationships, it was engagement, 4 years. Nearly after 3 months after breakup I accidentally matched with a guy who is an acquaintance of my ex, they studied together. Never been friends, but used to be a part of his social circle, they both would attend events with other people and such thing. We went on several dates with the guy, it went pretty well ( getting to know each other in all ways). On the third date we slept with each other, he behaved very much romantically and like a gentleman after but then didn’t message me for 3 days. I didn’t understand whether he wasn’t interested anymore or wanted a step from me. I messaged hi, he replied right away and we continued communication. He had a trip booked to a foreign country, went there, still was chatting me from everywhere. Was very cute, romantic and kinda couple ish communication. He came back from the trip, drove far to see me, we had a good date that also ended up with intimacy. In the morn...

/u/Rathama on No, I don't like blue and you can't make me!

They are like "How can a person be asexual". The same reason not everyone is pan. Like you just have to take a monosexual/bi person who doesn't feel attraction to every gender, take the lack of attraction to (a) certain gender(s) and apply it to every gender. Viola. January 10, 2022 at 01:15AM

Dating someone with drinking issues

I was talking to a guy who seemed a very good match for me. We both got out of a long term marriage with kids, our kids are same age. We both have similar profession. Today to his full honesty he told me he was arrested for DUI a year ago, have been sober for a year. Now he drives with breathalyzer. He admitted both him and his ex drank more than they should. My divorce was a result of sex addict spouse and I am super skeptic when it comes to addiction. So I told him I cant take the risk and we should stop chatting before getting more attached. He got really upset, said it was a very weird response and I am overreacting. Would you be comfortable dating someone with this kind of issue?

/u/New-Collection-1307 on Was talking to a friend about stuff and-

It's probably more accurate to say I'm 99% sure what gender I'm not. I've never been referred as said gender irl so I'm not sure how I'd react or feel about it. If it was done in good faith I'm sure I wouldn't care that much but idk. January 10, 2022 at 12:06AM

I think I don't want to move on

I am m23, I have never been in relationship, I dated few few times with random girls from tinder but there was nothing between us, there were two girls i cared about - one from uni and one from work that we first were friends then felt that something but nothing came out of this (they saw me in purely platonic way) - last one was like 4 months ago which is longer then we knew each other. I think I don't want relationship anymore. Every time it just hurts more and drugs me down that for the first time I don't want to get involved in anything and I have this feeling for a long time. At same time i feel and always felt lonely but now the feeling of not wanting to get involved in anything is so much stronger.

What do you think ?

So I went on a date with a guy last night that I’ve known for a while and have in the past been on and off with . I haven’t had sex in like 7 months bc I was kind of taking a break from dating etc . Anyway , it goes really well and we are having a good time . We end up starting to have sex but it Really really hurts . I’m a petite girl and sometimes if I don’t have sex for long periods of time it really hurts at first . We start to have sex and it’s super painful, he also barely warmed me up and just shoved it in which didn’t help . I told him it hurt and kept apologizing and he would stop for a minute and then would start basically jackhammering me . Going so fast and so hard and I’d stop him and say that’s really hurting . I finally had to ask him to stop . We try again later and we were able to have sex but it still was pretty sore . Then later he starts to critique the sex saying that I should have acted more interested , that he likes girls when they do this and that and I should...

Could girl I like be lying about her feelings?

Yesterday a girl (16) I (17) liked had told me she realized I had feelings for her and that she knew for some time. I didn't deny it and made a joke about how she knew for a while and I thought it wasn't obvious. I later asked her if she liked me too because she never gave an answer but she said "yeah I guess" and just has started to act dry. I asked her if I was making her uncomfortable and she said “no, the answer is yes.” Later the convo stopped being dry, but I feel like it wasn't a genuine response and she doesn't really like me. It just feels like she likes me platonically. Am I overthinking?

Girl I was Talking to Told me she wasn’t Ready for a Relationship

as you can read from the title, this girl i was talking to told me that she wasn’t ready for a relationship. im going to give you as much relevant details as possible and hopefully you guys can tell me if you think this was just a way to let me down easy or she genuinely isn’t ready for a relationship. first off i think it’s pretty relevant that i say she is my coworker. yes, i know im dumb, but i don’t see myself at this job for very long, so i went with it. so i’ve worked with her for a couple of months and she always said hi to me and would be excited whenever we worked together. i don’t think she meant to make it obvious that she liked me because she had a boyfriend at the time, but i could definitely tell she had something for me. ive always thought she was very cute, but i really didn’t want anything with her, because like i said she had a boyfriend and we work together, so i didn’t want to make things weird. one night while at work, she added me on snapchat. i knew that a cou...

/u/GreekMythNerd on Could I be sex-positive asexual?

Thank you so much. I'm definitely feeling support that no matter I eventually identify as I'm a valid person. I would love to read what allos describe as sexual attraction to see if I am feeling it, but I have a suspicion that if I don't even know what it would feel like, I probably don't feel it. I did some research and I do find I feel a very high sensual attraction, but I think I may have been mistaking that for sexual attraction most of my life. I'm not sure yet but you are definitely helping Edit: yea thank you so much, that doesn't sound like anything I've experienced. I've experienced aesthetic attraction but nothing like that burning desire just for sex that they're describing January 09, 2022 at 11:11PM
