Yesterday I was hanging out with my fwb who is currently in an open relationship, and told me she loves me and is very attached and doesnt know what to do. She said she wants to be with me but doesnt think she can leave her boyfriend. Can we still be fwb at this point? We have dates planned for the next upcoming weeks that I already bought tickets for.

I (19m) and her (20f) have been working at the same store for a little over 2 years, she lives about an hour away for college while I commute to my classes. We talk all the time when we’re working about anything and always have great conversations. The only thing that makes me unsure is our connection outside of work. We would get into the periods where we would snap each other usually once a day but after a few months we stop snapping. We were texting throughout August, but she would always reply after a day or two and hasn’t text me back in a week at this point (but I left her delivered on a week since I was annoyed with her answering so late) But when she sees me at work, she talks to me like nothing happened. She just went back to school and this feeling I have for her is eating away at me and I just want to get it off my chest. I’m not sure what to do in this situation if I should ask her out, tell her I like her, or just shut up. Another thing is that her childhood best friend

I (28M) recently went on a lunch date with a woman (25/26F, not sure which). Met her as I am personal trainer at a chain gym and I got paired with her. I liked her from the get go, but I believe outside of maybe too strong of eye contact and a bit more smiley and laughy around her, kept it casual during sessions and didn't try to flirt, no compliments or the like. Trained her for about 2 months and then her sessions ran out, and at the end of her last one, I asked her out to lunch. She said yes, but when the day came she cancelled a couple hours before, and then the next day she went back home saying she would let me know when she was back in town. The texts prior had changed too from when I texted her as a trainer, more exclamation points and stuff like that. She was back home for like 2.5 weeks because she got sick there, but when she got back, she did let me know and we planned another lunch date that happened a few days back, and the text still look excited. Now I'll admit

I think it’s odd so many people are jumping straight to therapy? I mean, I don’t like nudity either. It’s not that weird. I would be SUPER uncomfortable with a nude model, especially a man. Slightly unethical advice? Say it goes against your religion or something if it bothers you so much. You shouldn’t be forced to stare at naked people just because you study art IMHO. I get the reason behind it, but unless you plan to go into drawing dicks for living, what’s wrong with models wearing underwear? You still get 95% of the anatomy. EDIT: Of course, I’m not saying DON’T get therapy if you think that would help you. Personally I’m nude repulsed and it’s never affected me so I don’t care to do anything about it. If you would be happier not repulsed by nudity, then please look into options. September 12, 2022 at 11:47PM

I know I’m not OP but thank you so much for taking the time to write all that, it really detangles the thoughts I have on this topic in a comprehensible way !! This is almost exactly how I feel about it and how I might describe it, but I don’t think I could ever explain it as clear and in-depth as you did. Thank you for this !!

I hated this too, in art class. Human bodies, to me, are so ugly without clothes on. September 12, 2022 at 11:38PM

Im demisexual so i consider sex as something very intimate and special, and I’m very monogamous, so no September 12, 2022 at 11:35PM

I always thought hypersexuality was more of an obsession with sex, rather than attraction. As in, anyone of any orientation can be hypersexual. Things could change though, a few years can make a huge difference in understanding these days September 12, 2022 at 11:34PM
