/u/ThenReality6527 on How early should I tell a potential partner I'm ace?

Honestly, as someone who just separated from a 15 year marriage that was quite sexless while I have a high libido, I would have really preferred to know early on. Most people with moderate to highest sexual interest are thinking about sex with a person they’re interested in almost instantaneously so if that’s a no-go, best to lay it out upfront.

/u/JotaRoyaku on Out of curiosity. I feel like I see a lot more AFAB voices here, I want to know if it’s true and ponder the implications

Ex who dumped me came up to me at an event and started flirting

We were in a situationship for four months. She ended things, and I said we didn’t need to speak anymore. I reached out for closure a week later and she didn’t respond. It’s been 6 weeks of no contact and we were at the same event and she came up to me out of nowhere and neither of us talked about the past. I made her laugh, she made me laugh, we brought up inside jokes, she hit me on the shoulder a few times, playfully kicked me, then hugged me and said she was glad to see me and talk and then left after 5 minutes. She could have ignored me completely so I’m confused after thinking we’d never speak again. What does this mean? Submitted September 24, 2022 at 01:12AM We were in a situationship for four months.

I’ve been with him for a few years but he hits me

I 24 F and him 27 M have been together for 6.5 years. When he hits me (throws something at me, pushes me hard, or hurts me physically) and I hit him back (way less hard and more in a defensive way), am I being abusive or am I defending myself? He regards it as me being abusive as well even though I never initiate it and feel like I’m being gaslighted. Your thoughts?

/u/Miro_the_Dragon on GF came out as asexual to me last night. Need advice.

Why would she be upset with you for talking about such an important topic? September 24, 2022 at 12:25AM

Is it my turn to reach out?

29F I reconnected with a guy I know from childhood. We had an amazing first date. 4 days after we saw each other again. Spent a lot more time together and got physical. This was last Wednesday. After he dropped me off, he said we should see each other over the weekend. It bugged me I didn't hear from him that Thursday all day, given what we did. Anyways. Friday came he texted me around 9pm saying he was thinking of me with a kiss face. I say I was thinking of him too, he asks how my night is going... told him good, I had my sister visiting so I hung out with her. at this point it was about 10:30pm. He hearted the message about my night early in the morning and did not respond to other part of text when I asked "hows yours?" as in his night. No text Saturday. I was like hmm okay we were supposed to hang. Don't know if he got the impression I was busy with family. Then Sunday he texts saying "whats your week looking like. I wanna see you."
