Phrasing my ask-her-out-text

There is this woman I'm (m21) starting to like. We have texted a few times last month for a uni project, but also a couple of times just talking about our hobbies. I'm not sure if she is interested, but I still wanted to try to take her out. Just to get over the fear of it all, for once. I planned to text her tomorrow to ask her out. Something along the lines of "It's a shame I didn't have a good chance to get to know you better during those stressful exams. Do you want to go play pool next week in order to catch up/make up for it?" My question is... Is it a good way to go or does that sound weird? Like is it weird to say that I haven't gotten to know her, if we did in fact talked a bit to each other? If it isn't obvious, I get really confused when I try to think about how I want to communicate sth. And I was pretty satisfied with this text at first, but now I'm starting to overanalyse it...

I feel like I should go no contact but she messaged me today?

i(19m) met someone(18f) on tinder that I recognized from a few years ago early on in high school. When we matched she told me not to expect anything. after our first time hanging out a few days later she confesses her feelings for me and suggest we start a relationship. I tell her that I’m not wanting to jump into something yet and that I wanted to get to know her some more. We end up hanging out almost everyday for a solid week and I think things are going great. unfortunately it did not last as the very next week I stop getting responses from her, and she is going over to a male friends house. I’ll admit I can be jealous but this situation was a bit different as the male friend in question is 32 years old. after the week of almost nothing we have a conversation where she reassured me of her feelings and reassures me that nothing has happened between her and her friend. She also tells me she will put in more effort. I want to trust that but the behavior continued and she stood me up

Is there any way I can stop feeling like a total loser?

I’m in my final year of university and still a virgin and never had a girlfriend. A girl made out with me a few times out of pity. I have a very boring personality, so I have trouble making friends and keeping a girls interest. I don’t really think there’s much I can do to change this, it’s been this way since I’ve been a child. I don’t think it’s a case of being unlucky, I literally just don’t have the brain functionality to keep a girl attracted to me. How do I stop feeling like I’m missing out on such a big part of life? I’m literally bombarded by sex and relationships constantly, social media, TV, music, peoples conversations etc. People on the internet like to act like it’s no big deal but if it wasn’t such a big deal I wouldn’t be hearing about it 24/7. I’m taking a high dose of antidepressants in the hope that it can eliminate my sex drive but it still bothers me.

Probably would be missionary to allos, but on the flip side, I absolutely cuddle people I 100% feel comfortable with in a "69" position if you will. (Each persons feet by the others head) When laying together on a couch, it's surprisingly effective. Granted I mostly do it with one friend because she gets over stimulated by touch easily and hates the feeling of people breathing on her, so that is more comforting of a position for her. So really you can flip em both to ace or allo perspectives August 24, 2022 at 11:32PM

/u/boggled_ on I was at an optometrist appointment and the lady tucked my hair behind my ear as she fitted my glasses and I weirdly enjoyed it in a purely sensual way, and now I’m kinda sad I’m never going to have a partner to do that to me.

It IS nice but have you tried cake 🎂? LOL, in all seriousness, the trick it to enjoy those moments and then remember all the wonderful benefits you get for being aroace. I've been ace for 22 years (and single for most of that). I've learned to relish being alone when I am but also take risks and be social. The. When I'm social I enjoy that.

Every time I see stuff like this, I'm like "damn... how'd it take me 24 years to figure it out" Very relatable 😅 August 24, 2022 at 11:23PM
