I don't know anymore

I am an oblivious man wanting to try a social experiment. I personally attach everything with sexuality (which maybe I am wrong) but i think this is how all men think. I am wondering how women think. Do you attach sexuality in every interaction you have. I literally think subconsciously I ignore people I don't find attractive. I have been realizing lately this is probably wrong and am trying to change/gain an understanding of what Normal is? Is this just me?

How do I ask for more affection and emotional closeness/feeling of safety?

I have been dating someone for several months now and while he is a very caring person, he is not affectionate and not very verbally expressive in making me feel close or safe. He equates affection to sex so only during sex is he very physically affectionate but that ends soon as sex is over. This is causing me to feel unsafe and missing that feeling of emotional closeness and day to day intimacy. I come from a very dry/no affection household and my last long term relationship was very unhealthy in every way so I struggle with how to feel safe and emotionally close to another person. He also grew up in a very dry home too. I have tried saying “I need more affection” but I don’t think he knows how to do that and where to start. He has asked “how do I make you feel more safe emotionally/physically?” but I wasn’t quite sure how to explain it. I recently saw in a show that a woman said she felt safe when her boyfriend put his hands on her waist and it kinda made sense to me but I don’...

Why spit it out instead of swallowing?

I’ve been wondering this for a while and I want to know what people think. I get the not wanting sperm in your mouth thing. I really do. But once it’s in there, why not just swallow? What’s the use of spitting it out? I’m genuinely curious. ‘Cause of its for the taste, that won’t work. The taste will remain of you spit or swallow. And for the mess it also won’t work. It’s less of a mess if you just swallow. And you can’t get pregnant from it. So I am genuinely curious.

Best way to start a conversation with a girl?

Hi. 22M here. I found a girl (19F) on Instagram in a totally random way. To be honest I liked her look so I followed her. Then she followed me back so maybe that's a sign or not. 😂 The big problem now is how do I actually start a conversation? I was waiting some good weeks until she will post a story with a song/quote/etc. to have something good to say but she just posts randomly or rarely selfies with her. I know I can just react with '😍' but I find it a bit boring. What can I say to a selfie with her without being boring? I also know that if she is interested, she will probably answer even if it is the most common or boring message, but I want to be different and unique. So, someone have any better idea?

Is it possible for someone to change their mind?

I asked out a friend of mine at the start of the year but she said she didn’t reciprocate the same feelings. We’ve stayed friends (part of a friendship group). I don’t want to be pushy since she made her decision so I won’t ask her out / tell her how I feel again, but I’m not completely over her, I was just wondering if anyone had been in a similar situation. Do you think there’s a chance that someone could start catching feels or is it something that only happens off the bat?
