A couple of years ago I slept with this guy who is in a relationship. It was only a one-time thing but a year later he tried to have sex with me again. But I didn't actually sleep with him. Now when I see him *I usually see him where he works he's a cashier at a store* we talk while he's cashing me out and he'll ask me what I've been up to. And I'll ask him how he's doing. Like he'll tell me about how he went to a concert. Or that he went somewhere out of town. I don't think there is anything wrong with us talking when we see each other. Last time I saw him he told me he went somewhere and showed me something. Once when he saw me laughing and talking to his coworker he interrupted our conversation. I still don't know if he actually did this on purpose or not. Submitted October 09, 2022 at 11:50PM A couple of years ago I slept with this guy who is in a relationship.

I went on a date to dave n busters with a girl i been talking to for a couple weeks and at first it was awkward and there wasnt much talking or interaction but after when we went to get somthing to eat we talked for like 2 hours and got to know eachother well and when we were leaving i was planning on kissing her goodnight but i chickened out and it ended up with her giving me a hug and she told me she had a great time and we should hangout again, which i agreed and we parted ways. So fast foward a week later we plan to hangout again and went to watch a scary movie at the theaters and again i planned on making a move like putting my arm around her or atleast hold her hand to atleast break the physical touch barrier and again i chickened out. after the movie we went to the park and walked and smoked and talked about life and random topics and found a bench to sit on to continue our conversation, we ended up talking for like 20 mins on the bench until she said she was cold so we went to...

TLDR : its been 8 months and he hasn’t asked me to be his girlfriend. I(F25) ended a 3-year relationship on Dec 2021 – took almost a year to get the balls to end things as things were quite complicated, pretty toxic and we were living together at the time. So by the time that got to an end i had no feelings or felt the need to even look at his face anymore. Met this new guy (M27) through Instagram on Feb 2022 and since then we’ve been talking everyday and seeing each other pretty much every weekend - have spent 2 holidays (3 day holidays) on hotels with him, have been to his house and stuff. I haven’t met his parent or friends and neither has he met mine (as mine live outside the country). A couple months in we spoke about being exclusive. And in conversation, he has said that he really likes me and has plans to live with me ( meanwhile he’s still at his parents) and book many other holidays out there with me. We’re even planning on spending new year’s together (he brought that u...

I’ve been on several different dating apps and I’m having so much trouble finding just someone to match. I’ve even gotten to the point where I’m just endlessly swiping on even people that I know I wouldn’t be able to match with just on the slim chance we might. Before I had some confidence in my appearance thinking I was at the very least a 6 but then now I’m not even sure I’m a 4. Can anyone help me with this??

It is nobody's fault. It is heartbreaking to discover an incompatibility like this, but it is nobody's fault. You are made the way you are made, your partner is made the way they are made. Neither one of you can change who you are. Ultimately, if you can't give each other what you each need to thrive, and you can't find any way to adjust things (by this I do NOT mean you forcing yourself to have sex you don't want, I don't recommend that at all), then the relationship may have run its course, and you may both be better looking for someone who is more compatible. I know this is easier said than done. But it seems like the writing is on the wall. However much you love each other, you're neither of you happy and I can't see a way that you could be. I'm so sorry. October 09, 2022 at 11:30PM
