I'm talking to a man who is 42 (I'm a 40 year old woman). He claims he's a loner. Have any women out here ever dated a loner man before? Was he flaky or consistent with communication, following through with plans, etc.? I'm curious what it's like to date a loner who treasures his solitude but also makes time to date/be in a relationship. Thoughts?

It was a quiz exactly the same to this, what I’m saying is that they aren’t always accurate. June 30, 2023 at 11:21PM

What would a partner want from you? I do hear that apps have filters biult in to increase contact on new accounts. I don't know how true it is for all apps, but it'd be weird if they didn't do it frankly. so maybe not a you issue in that respect! June 29, 2023 at 11:15PM

Religious types often speak out against asexuality. Just look at the flack that Jaiden Animations got (and still gets) just for making a video about being aroace. They were particular incensed because children watch her animations. Accused her of "grooming," even. Let me emphasize this: they called her a "groomer" because kids might watch her animation...about NOT wanting sex or romance. "Brat" Walsh frequently disses asexuals in his video rants. Long story short: religious types know about us already, and they don't like us. They consider us a threat to their way of life by existing, just like they consider all other types of LGBTQIA+ folk.

I’m 20M and I’ve never been In a relationship so ideally I’d like to find someone within the next couple years or so Everyone I’ve even been with were either one night stands, casual relationships for a couple weeks or the odd tinder hookup. Ive sorta considered a relationship with a couple of these but after further reflection non of them were even close to relationship material and in fact I feel like a bit of an idiot for not picking up on the red flags sooner for those ones. On a fair few occasions they’ve even had a boyfriend which just makes me even more cautious of relationships. I’m a good looking dude and also 6’5 and jacked which you’d think would help but it seems that I’m only able to attract the wrong type of girls. I’ve got tinder and get more than enough matches but the only ones who are eager to meet up are half naked in all their photos and I’m not really willing to message someone for weeks on end just to get a date or play the long game. Admittedly i don’t have m...

If you are not attracted to men, calling yourself asexual (or aromantic, not feeling romantic attraction) makes a lot more sense yourself straight. The "you just haven't met the right person yet" phrase is a pretty common microaggression against asexual and aromantic people. Most straight people don't feel attracted to just one person ever*. You can read more about this here: https://www.asexuality-handbook.com/faq/what-if-i-just-havent-met-the-right-person-yet.html *demisexual/demiromantic or greysexual/greyromantic are cool terms to look into if you want to learn more about the experiences of people who actually only feel attraction to a very small number of people. Both of those are on the asexual/aromantic spectrums, respectively. June 26, 2023 at 11:27PM
