I thought he was with me for a certain reason, I lost that reason. So I asked him why he wants to date me, he said my personality. Is that a good answer?

So last night, I (male) talked on the phone for around 2 hours with someone who I met online. The convo was good, she is chatty but I listened and the convo went great! Not sure what happened but I didn't hear from her all day. I'm sure she's not into me anyone but it sucks because we had plans to meet up next week. Oh well, starting over I guess with someone else or am I overthinking?

So I’m personally off the apps, but my friends are and we were discussing what kind of men we would want, and how to attract them. It dawned on me that to get the man I want to attract, I basically have to show him by my profile! So I like men who work out and lift heavy, so a photo of me in an athletic situation and then a photo that shows off that I lift will be ideal! I also want a man who’s in a similar career situation as me so something that shows off my success but not too obnoxious! I could go on, but I think it explains half the issues with dating apps and finding a partner!

I (28m) said to my fiancé (27f) that I would like her to help me financially after marriage. We had a big fight and she broke off our relationship because she said that in her culture the man is supposed to provide for everything and in my situation, I can’t provide for everything alone. She also said that even if she earns, according to her culture, her money is hers and my money is ours. Another detail, I save for retirement and help my parent with home mortgage payments.

I told myself I had to give my partner sex in order to keep their companionship. Then I learned asexual couples exist and that gave me so much relief I could date without sex January 13, 2022 at 01:18AM

there are some people who identify on the ace/aro spectrums because of trauma, much like there are people who might identify as lesbian because of trauma even though they experienced attraction to men before. It's extremely rare for trauma victims to lose sexual or romantic attraction (in fact, statistically, they are more likely to become hypersexual) but they are absolutely still valid aspecs and we 100% support them. However, a couple pervasive ace stereotypes are that "asexuality isn't real, it's actually just trauma" or "it's actually just a medical condition" and those are extremely harmful to the community as a whole. The overwhelming majority of us are born this way and the idea that we can be "fixed" with therapy or medication is frankly as harmful as saying gay people can be "fixed" with therapy or medication. Basically, whatever you do, please do not equate trauma with any sexuality or perpetuate those ace/aro ste...

My mom said something very similar. 🤨 - my face when she said “that’s normal for everyone” when explaining asexuality. January 13, 2022 at 01:12AM

I specifically stated that the religion has no concept of it. I feel like you're not understanding what that means. Nothing about marital r@pe is discussed and you can't point to a single verse to talk about it without putting your own interpretation on it. Also, people interpret "respect" differently. There are fundamentalist wackos who specifically say that it is disrespectful for a woman to deny sex to her husband for any reason and use Bible verses to back up that claim. They use their own interpretation to say that the Bible refutes the existence of marital r*pe because a woman ALWAYS owes her husband sex. This is my whole point that the religion itself has no stance on the subject. It's all boiled down to personal interpretation. January 12, 2022 at 11:36PM

There are gay people out there who aren't part of the community. You don't have to join us, nobody is forcing you to join so idk why you think that?? The reason we have this community is for a support group. If you're getting offended that people are telling you to be a decent human being, then that's on you. You chose to make that comment on a public form, and just like you got an opinion so does everyone else. January 12, 2022 at 11:35PM

perhaps a little, but I mainly mean to refer to behavior. and it was an inquire as well, sorry if that was not obvious. January 12, 2022 at 11:35PM

You can do all of that stuff without experiencing sexual attraction. I used to wander around the house almost naked just for temperature control. Florida is hot and AC is expensive. I also do a bit of sex work. Neither of those things make me less ace. January 12, 2022 at 11:34PM

Click on the Twitter tab. My response is below the question Mr. Church man asks. January 12, 2022 at 11:33PM

I’ve been dating this guy for nearly two months now. With the way he talks, the frequency of communication, and the things he says, I thought we were both on the same page and only seeing each other. He had in fact told me in passing that he was only seeing me. Still, my intuition was telling me something was wrong. I eventually just asked if he was still seeing anyone else for peace of mind and he gave me this sheepish look and admitted he was. He had expressed that he wanted to take things slow after having been burned pretty bad in a previous relationship, but I didn’t realize taking things slow meant actively seeing other people. I told him that I wasn’t comfortable with that and concerned that he tried to hide it from me until I asked. He assured me that he likes me more than anyone else he has seen, but the fact that he kind of lied and is clearly still unsure about whether he likes me enough to be exclusive makes me want to run for the hills. When I told him how I felt, he said...

Yeah... Turns out I'm just in the Ace spectrum January 12, 2022 at 11:33PM
