You're by no means too young to know. I suspected this around your age as well [i'm 23 now for context. Also on the spectrum]. My mom doesn't really care what my sexuality is, and my dad is happy about it because that means I, his youngest daughter, am not interested in sex/romance and he doesn't have to get wigged about me being a sexually active adult [he's the kind of parent who sees my sister and I as children and can't handle the idea of us doing adult things. Told him my sister and her boyfriend haven't been intimate in a while and he looked like I slapped him with that reminder of our adulthood ] Anyhow, apologies for the unrelated information. I'm unsure what could bring your mom around besides time and some educating. I've had guys who liked me not be all that accepting or hope i'd change my mind. Maybe like one thought it was spectrum related. Some people just can't compute that some people aren't into sex or romance because i...

I have a dilemma. I'm a woman, and on dating apps, but also irl, I feel like I’m sometimes drawn toward assholes because, before I even realize that they are, I like that their bio is kind of flirty or rogue-ish. Here’s the thing: I’d really like a boyfriend and a stable monogamous relationship. I don’t want hookups, which is usually the only thing the asshole guys want (I know there are non-asshole men who only want to hook up, but I think they're of a different variety). But what I DO want is someone I can imagine myself bantering and flirting with, someone witty, or someone that likes to joke around, because I’m witty and like to joke around. I also just find it sexy when that kind of chemistry is there. Which is why the guys who usually message me with sincerity first or have more serious profiles don’t interest me as much. It’s not that I don’t want sincere conversations, but I want some level of fun to be there first. I don’t know what to do about this. Reddit users: i...

Worth it? Submitted December 10, 2022 at 12:09AM Worth it?

So I caught feelings for this girl that was my friend and she ended up rejecting me, I decided I was mature enough that I could remain friendly with her but I distanced myself greatly A couple months go by and I am in a happy relationship and she has been through like 4 guys and she’s having a hard time with it I’ve told her before I’m not comfortable with her drowning me with her guy problems but that hasn’t stopped her from saying how she just wants to be loved and she can’t find a good guy etc etc, to me this is kind of a slap in the face, am I wrong for wanting to be her friend but not being there for her when it comes to this stuff? Also ever since I distanced myself she is constantly trying to get my attention more swiping up on my stories asking me to hang out when before I was the one doing the chasing, I will still hangout with her from time to time but it’s been frustrating lately I’m honestly not sure what her intentions are, if she craves the attention and ego boost I ...
