/u/grimisgreedy on I always felt my sexual activity invalidated an ace-spec identity for me until now!

Congrats on figuring out your sexual orientation! 🎉 It took me a long time to realise that I’m ace as well and for very similar reasons to yours. Being sexually active and having a high libido while also not feeling sexual attraction definitely makes things confusing. I’m glad you’ve taken the time to learn more about the asexual spectrum and have found the labels that describe your experience. Tbh I wasn’t aware of these micro-labels prior to reading your post so thank you for describing them! July 11, 2022 at 01:21AM

How to manage a significant income gap as a couple?

So me (25M) and my partner (22F) have been talking about how to manage the income disparity we will have as a result of our career choices. 1 year since graduation, and my current income is over 180k and she will start her first job sometime this year which would be about 60k a year. This will only become worse. She plans to do some advanced studies which can help but only so much. Wanted to ask about how other couples in this situation have been successfully managing this?

Maybe you should talk to him maybe he is one of the many colors in the ace spectrum or sub spectrum July 11, 2022 at 12:35AM

I got a “thanks for last night :)” text and I replied but I still haven’t heard back

So I (m25) went on a first date on Saturday night with this girl (f25) from hinge and had a great time, however at times it was kinda hard to read her and gauge her vibe on whether she’d be keen on a second date (to be fair she even joked a couple times about how she knows she’s hard to read) At the end of the day she said she’d text me tomorrow (which was yesterday now) and I just got a text late yesterday afternoon saying “thanks for last night :)” and nothing else so I replied back like an hour later saying how I had a good time and I’d like to do something again sometime soon and still haven’t heard anything back since yesterday afternoon. She has been quite slow to reply in the past, even up to a couple days one time and isn’t too responsive during the day on Mon-Fri anyway, so I’d say tonight would be the earliest I’d hear back at this stage Was her text either: - Her way of being polite and saying thanks even though she’s not keen on another ? - Or her way of initiating the c...

Do you think people are actually bad at texting? Or is it just a matter or caring?

Is being a “bad texter” actually a thing? Or is it just a matter of effort/caring? I understand being busy, but even when I’m busy- I make an effort to text people back in a timely manner.
