Hello all. I went on a date with this girl last night, but I am really confused. I had a very bad breakup last year in March with my ex of 5 years. She cheated on me, broke my heart, and never even gave me closure. Long story short, I was messed up for a while, haven’t been able to have sex due to anxiety, and still having trouble moving on from the past. I went on a few dates last year, but nothing sparked. I took this girl out to dinner, we had great conversation, kissed and held hands a little bit after, and I thought the date went well. I didn’t even think about my ex a single time during the date. However, on my way home, I started crying. I sort of liked this new girl, but I am very scarred and afraid of opening my heart up to someone else again. I don’t know what to do. I texted her today and she said she had a good time. I would like to ask her out again, but I am afraid of taking things further and potentially developing feelings and loving someone else again. TLDR; Dealin

Good eye! That was my first tattoo (~6 years ago), ironically also another spontaneous decision because the Airbnb was attached to a tattoo shop. The other one you can see a tiny bit of is a stack of books with "We're all stories in the end" typed on a ribbon running through the stack of books. That one wasn't spontaneous or because I happened to be temporarily staying by a tattoo shop. April 04, 2023 at 12:29AM

I have been feeling like this recently. It’s really weird because it feels like I have to stimulate it but at the same time I don’t want to have sex or even be stimulating it(it’s weird). Thank you for helping me through the time I’ve been going through April 04, 2023 at 12:26AM

backstory: texted throughout the summer and fall, asked him out and went on a date just over a month ago - coffee. went on a second sort-of date yesterday - coffee and walk. he doesn’t want anything exclusive rn and he likes to date around and “meet new people” and he said he’s only gone on multiple dates with one other person in the last two weeks. he’s not amazing at texting, and between the two times i’ve seen him he’s last-minute cancelled twice. he says he’s interested he’s just very busy, i can attest that he’s genuinely busy. he, however, is very funny and i do like him a lot granted i liked him a lot more before i found out he’s sort of seeing someone else as well. my stance: i lost a fair amount of interest in him after learning he had gone of multiple dates with another girl after we went out and while we had been talking. i don’t think it’s outrageous to date around, it’s normal, but i feel like multiple dates with multiple people is a bit strange. i still find him funny a
