So I matched with a guy on Hinge and we had a really good conversation, now he gave me his whatsapp so we could go and chat there. I was the whole day busy and to be honest forgot to text him on whatsapp. I am in med school and have a few exams next week and after an abusive relationship I try to not attach myself so easily to a new man in my life. He tried calling me on the app then and it kind of makes me feel annoyed that someone would go so far to call me that when I dont send a text back right away and I am afraid that this guy is controlling again. Would you say that it is a sign of interest that he calls you or if he is being needy that I did not text him yet to schedule a first date? I am honestly afraid he is too got to be true, I do not trust guys anymore after being cheated on and being betrayed, he is so kind and caring or at least it seems like it but I rather feel like I need to protect myself.

Hi everyone, so my problem is that I just suck at flirting and this kinda thing and never know what to say. I'm lucky enough to be in the better half of looks so it happened that people did the first (and second and third) step but I'm terrible at taking the matter into my own hands. I need to up my game. Let's say I'm at a social event (concert, bar, club, this kinda thing) and I see a person has been eyeing me. I just don't know how to approach them. Do I just go and say hey what's up? I feel like that'd be awkward. How do you guys do it? Submitted January 18, 2023 at 01:04AM Hi everyone, so my problem is that I just suck at flirting and this kinda thing and never know what to say.

For me, it was when I realized that people actually have sex. Ofc, I know that being ace and not having sex arent the same thing, but it just surprised me that people actually feel something that eventually lead them to have sex. For me sex always was an awkward subject to talk about, not because I was "shy" or something, I just despised to talk about it so much. When people started to talk that a person was hot, sure, they were hot, but I started to realize that what I saw as a "hot" person (clean, happy, funny, kind, with an INCREDIBLE fashion sense) was not what people were talking about. I still laugh about the fact that when I joined the community I came across the "aces love cake" joke but didnt really get it, until one day I was watching a movie w my family and a sex/flirting scene came and I suddenly thought "damn, a piece of a cake would be nice" By that moment, I had already realized that I was ace, but it really felt like a "...

[19F] [20M] Over the weekend I got my period, then a scary but small vaginal hematoma from my bf and some sort of awful virus from damn applebee’s. I have severe depression and it’s just now a month since I had to put down my childhood dog who I was taking care of on my own in his last years. I have a hard time taking care of myself especially now that he’s gone. I could barley walk today and once I was sure he was home I told him I was scared and overwhelmed and I needed his comfort. He’s usually a very emotional and sensitive guy but he blew up on me and told me that I need to get a hold of myself, that he’s not my pillow, I need to stop complaining and that him comforting me isn’t helping me at all. I get where he’s coming from, he had a long day and feels drained. After I went and hurled over my trash can from the anxiety of how he was treating me so suddenly I came back and explained that I’d appreciate if he wasn’t so stern because what he said was the opposite of what I needed....
