/u/Chazkuangshi on It's been a long night for me reading about asexuality in this subreddit, and my spiritual awakening came to me learning that 'looking at someone and thinking I wanna have sex w/ them' was actually a thing. Cleared my old doubts about being ace. I just want to say thanks! Seeing this also helped:

Do women on Tinder expect certain characteristics based on the way someone looks when matching with them

The title is definitely confusing but hopefully by reading this text it’ll clear up what I mean. Let’s take my profile for example because this is kind of what I’m referring to, I can imagine my profile gives off major fuckboy vibes just because of how I dress and present myself (bonus points on being black) and I feel like when women match with me they expect that personality but when I actually start speaking to them I’m a giant nerd, that loves to talk about philosophical stuff and spiritual things, I like to know you for you but I feel like this is not what women look for when they match me, which creates this awkward situation. Sometimes I feel like I’m matched just to be a sexual machine, because when I talk like that even though I find it cringe I get more responses, now this isn’t to say this is what all women like, it just feels like it’s the women who match me. Same for if someone gave off a soft poetic vibe and women matched with them to have intellectual conversations but...

So many people smoke weed lol

I have nothing against weed. I used to smoke a lot but I have stopped in the past year but on dating sites people just boast about smoking weed. I am fine with dating people who smoke weed. I’m just like, is it a deal breaker if I don’t want to smoke weed on dates? Maybe in the future I would but I don’t want it apart of my routine. It really messes with my sleeping lol. Was asked on a date recently and they said we can get high and watch a movie, like, sorry i don’t really smoke but hey i’ll watch a movie. I have also had incidents where i don’t smoke weed and when people around me do smoke, they end up just sleeping or freaking and that really is just no fun for me. not really any questions but just a little curious rant.

Am I falling too hard and too fast? [24F]

Met on a dating app and we had our first date and soon to have our second. I’ve had horrendous luck dating and haven’t seriously liked someone in about 4 years. Been on several dates since then but I was very indifferent to them and they didn’t go anywhere past two at most. This guy has been really different. We had a great conversation before he asked me out so I was actually excited for our date which I usually never am. We met at 7 and didn’t leave until 2AM and three bottles of wine in. It may have been drunken talk but I told him about my mental health problems (I’m borderline) and said that it would be a problem (I internalise my issues and try my hardest for it not to impact anyone). Usually, when I disclose this, guys are okay but don’t seem to want to deal with that. I get it because I hate dealing with it. He took my hands though and told me “no, it will be a problem at some point but we’ll deal with it”. That meant a lot. Anyway, we spent the night talking about marri...
