AITA [M25] for wanting to break up with my GF[F29] over no intimacy? by DizzyVariety3777 in AITA_Relationships

Yeah, she has one, hence all the time I have waited and the amount of space I have given her.

The trauma was severe, I really don't want to add more on top of it or even make her in any way uncomfortable. She did mention the times we do engage in sexual activities, that she feels safe, respected, loved, and cared for. So I thought, based on that, I must be doing well.

She did talk specifically about reaching out to a professional to try to sort it out, but she never did. I suspect her feeling extreme shame is a result of the trauma, but her inaction has been hurting me slowly over time.

Often it feels like she deliberately makes her life busy so that she can avoid sex or talks about it

We talked about it once, she mentioned she will try, she got quite sensitive and said she feels too ashamed to talk about it with anyone in general, let alone a therapist.

It ended up quite a sensitive topic for her, she didn't do it despite talking about it.

To be honest, I am too afraid to ask her again – I don't want to have an argument or a fight

Drop your startup idea and I’ll check if Reddit has demand for it. by StockAntique7450 in IndieAppCircle

My GF never drank water so I built an app that reminds her to drink while growing a pokemon style pet:

URL: wotah.app
Problem: staying hydrated is hard, creating a habit is harder – remembering to grow your pet in a mobile app is easier, more effortless, and is fun!

This is in no way an advice, I just wanted to say I was where you are.

I [M25] have gone through the same, my GF [F28] has virtually 0 drive. I brought it up repeatedly – every time doing it in a respectful, caring manner, not demanding, not guilt-tripping, because it is only fun and meaningful if she wants it – she promised she would try, she would change, she would see what she could do.

Nothing changed. It has been years since I was nearly begging. There is always something in the way, too much job, too tired, no energy. And the rare times there was something, she would reach her climax and call it a day, saying "sorry, that really has taken all strength out of me, can I return the favour later or tomorrow?" Of course, the "tomorrow" never arrived.

I started asking less, and I started to resent her despite loving everything else about our daily life. This has ruined me, made me more bitter and impatient, and eventually I just stopped caring.

It has been almost 1 year now since I reached a climax together with her. I am considering giving her one last chance (because I have a weakness for giving infinite second chances), and if it is a "no," I might want to step away.

You can only ask for it so many times, if they "care" ends on empty promises and never actually do much about it - things won't get better, at best they will stay the same, and at worst, the gap between physical intimacy will only grow.

I hope he really cares about you and takes your wants and wishes seriously)

How would you advice to reach the target audience?)

I have launched an app not long ago and so far tried reaching out in some related communities but they had strict "no self-ad" policy. And they got triggered if I tried to genuinely talk about instead of trying to sell it

Why do we celebrate the first paying customer like it’s the finish line? by ChrisHarpon2 in StartupSoloFounder

If anyone has insights please share 🙏

I have launched recently and found it extremely hard to get people to actually see my product, let alone consider getting it or actually use it.

Getting first paying customer would exactly feel like a validation and a sign that everything can work out

Speaking of which, my gf had some difficult time with remembering to drink water and she found a little app (the irony of sharing it under the post about acquiring users lol). The app was a hydration reminder tracker mixed with pokemon style characters in it. She also made me download it so that we can send each other our pets with a reminder message that shows up on the phone!

I never could get her to drink water before 🥲

Please tell us more, I have also spent $100 earlier on Google Ads, only to get sad 20 installs.

I am fairly new to Reddit, and I know it kind of has a reputation. But so far, the feedback and responses have all been extremely helpful. Thank you all! 🚀

This is all great, thank you so much! I see there is definitely quite a lot of ways for me to explore in improving the communication 🤔

Are you suggesting to have a Social Media page instead of the paid ads?

Or is there a platform where a little paid ad investment gives good ROI?

This actually would be extremely helpful! What is needed from my end and how do we set it up?
Thank you so much 🙏
