/u/averkitpy on What's it like to be sex-neutral or sex-repulsed?

yeah same, i can talk about and joke about it and shit but anything when it involves me disgusts me. if i see real genitals im like slightly disgusted (more so disgusted with like vaginas and shit) but if i see a dick its just like "okay. its a dick." and it doesnt really phase me or make me aroused at all. sex itself disgusts me and the idea of people doing sexual things disgusts me but i can still talk about it maturely if need be October 22, 2023 at 11:06PM

Should i tell his girlfriend?

Me and this guy has been having sex since 2020. I love him. He knows it. But he doesnt share the same feeling. I respect that. But he still continue coming to me without me provoking or seducing him. So i assume maybe he loves me a bit. Last night i saw his photo with a girl saying 1st anniversary. The date of the photo, and 3 weeks after that he was at my place, with sensual sex. Having declared love and official photo, why did he come back to me? He didnt tell me he has a serious thing going on. Fine. I accept my fate. But should i tell his girlfriend? -hearbroken but pragmatic- Submitted October 22, 2023 at 12:15AM Me and this guy has been having sex since 2020. I love him. He knows it.

/u/AndroidwithAnxiety on I’m hurt by how the community views orchidsexual

I don't think you're in the wrong for feeling hurt - your experiences are what they are, and this is how they've made you feel. I will say... from my understanding (and please please correct me if I'm wrong) 'orchidsexual' is defined by someone who regularly/often - or always - feels sexual attraction, but is sex repulsed? AKA, a sex-repulsed allo? I know it's specifically the sex-repulsion that drew you to the label, but is there a reason you didn't want to call yourself a sex-repulsed greysexual? I know it's not as snappy and doesn't roll of the tongue as easily, but I can't help feeling maybe some of your feelings of rejection might be coming from a miscommunication about what people understand 'orchidsexual' to be ? Because I think the definition being used in the discussions on the posts you saw, was the 'sex-repulsed allo ' definition. That's certainly the definition I based my opinions on. And, well... yeah, th...

How do I tell my date to keep it cool and quit smothering me?

Hi, I'm (F24) in a mutual exclusive relationship with a guy (M26) I met on Bumble. We've known each other only 3 weeks, but he's taking it way faster than I want. I agreed for the mutual exclusivity because I actually enjoy and like him, and wanted us to explore our connection further without the distractions of other people. With that being said, he's moving way too fast for my comfort. He talks about how I'm the best thing, that he wants to spend all his time with me, even mentioned "our kids" in a jokingly way, that he wants this to be his best and last relationship, that he wants to take many trips with me, talks about our 5 year anniversary in the future, and a lot more. I feel like he's putting me on a pedestal and has an idealistic view of our relationship when I don't even have the time to just enjoy a slow burn, it's honestly pushing me away. Although flattering what he says, I also feel smothered. How do I bring this up without hurti...

Should I just end things now?

Should I just end things now? I’ve been seeing this guy for two months now, officially seeing him for about a month. The first month or so was great, he was texting me all the time, we saw each other at least twice a week, spent the night at his house two weeks ago, and it seems like ever since that weekend it’s been different. We saw each other last Wednesday, but he had to cut it short to help his dad with something, Thursday he said we would do something, then Thursday told me he was busy helping his dad again, we did meet up later Thursday night, then last weekend I was supposed to go to his house Saturday, he says come down we’ll do breakfast, then 10 minutes later says never mind don’t come down and gave me a lame excuse, so I didn’t seem him at all this weekend. Had to practically beg him to see me Monday. We had made plans for two weeks now for this upcoming weekend because it’s his birthday, he now tells me his work friends want to take him out Saturday, I even asked him ...

How do you keep the faith when you feel hopeless? 29F

I've been single and actively dating for the last 2.5 years. I've been on a lot of dates (65 first dates to be exact, since May 2021). Some have turned into second and third dates, and there was one guy I dated for a few months, but nothing has turned into a committed relationship. In my most recent experience, I went on (at least, what I thought were) 3 great dates. And after expressing a lot of interest, this guy just disappeared. I understand no one owes you anything in early dating, but 1) we were intimate and, 2) this man is 35 years old...lol. You would think he would have the maturity to send a simple text that said "hey, I enjoyed meeting you. I don't think this is a good fit" or something. Typically, I would dust off the rejection and just keep it moving. I've been ghosted before. But for some reason, this one got to me, and I just broke down. The accumulation of trying and trying with no success, has taken its toll. At this point in my dating jou...
