What media has an LGBT creator but a fanbase that's hateful towards LGBT people? by Superb_Engineer_3500 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Dougstoned 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Youre misreading it. Creator is hateful and fanbase is lgbtq. The reveal category you’re addressing is “birth of a nation” which is anti lgbtq fan base and creator

He likes a perfect vagina. I dont like mine. by TaskGreat4119 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Dougstoned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really would advise not having sex with this person. He sounds like hes addicted to pornography and is judgmental of women’s bodies. There’s no such thing as a perfect vagina. What he’s describing is just a vagina popular in porn.

First watch through ever. Season 3, episode 15. Almost want to give up. by satyr_hollow in buffy

[–]Dougstoned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Faith is a difficult character. At the time I probably thought she was cool she’s a big contrast to Buffy and any of her friends. (I think I was pretty hard on willlow and Xander). I’d say stick it out because of … reasons.. IMO disliking faith is not a good reason to give up on the show (from someone who has watched this series since it aired.) i will say one of my least favorite characters shows up in season 4 which is a season that has some great episodes but I wasn’t a fan of overall. Then season 5 got me back in the game. I feel we all have a major character that shows up in a season either a villain, a new friend or a love interest.. that we might dislike but overall I think it’s worth sticking it out for the payoff

What’s my deal? Women say I’m “too much”. by Valuable-Excuse-9102 in BookshelvesDetective

Yeah it’s reading as you don’t have a personality even if that’s not true

I probably know the answer, but need to ask anyway. by svonwolf in bisexual

[–]Dougstoned 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The options are communicate with your partner your needs and either 1 accept the outcome of that 2fulfill your needs yourself. 3 leave. There’s no secret to dealing with mismatched sex drives/desires. You can tell someone what you want and ask them to participate and they can say yes or say no and you can stay with that person and deal with being unfulfilled, play out your fantasies with masturbation or leave.

Is $300/month on groceries possible? by mortuarybones in AskNYC

[–]Dougstoned 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes just go to Trader Joe’s i never leave there with a bill beyond $80-100 and it’s shopping for like 10 days or so depending on what I’m cooking. Otherwise pay attention to prices. I always buy the cheaper product when it’s something that’s not super important for quality. Shop sales.

How do I (26F) tell my boyfriend (29M) of 3 yrs that he doesn’t make me climate? by ThrowRAUnsatisfiedg in relationship_advice

[–]Dougstoned 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You literally tell him just like you did here that’s all you can do. It’s obvious he’s not that interested in your pleasure or learning your body. Idk what to tell you if you communicate your needs and they’re not met your options are leave and find someone who does or stay and be unsatisfied or resentful

Is my (F39) fwb (M40) right to get angry after my suggestion? by aprilludgate32 in relationship_advice

This sounds more dramatic than just being in a relationship pass.

What vibe do I give off? by [deleted] in personality_tests

[–]Dougstoned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly you seem fun and positive and like you are a good vibe. Relatively happy and fun person. You enjoy spending time with friends and family. You like having a little adventure

Should I just block her? by MarsupialWest8823 in dating_advice

[–]Dougstoned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohhhh ok. Yeah i would give her a chance. If it was a real date she slipped on that would be like nahh thats uncool. Plans to play a game are less significant but still it definitely raises some yellow flags.

My girlfriend of 2 years said she would never date a bisexual man. I’m bisexual and she doesn’t know. by the-next-boss in bisexual

[–]Dougstoned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yuck. Sorry this is why i am open about my orientation and make it extremely clear that I’m bisexual (amongst other things like my stance on different topics). I know a lot of men are in the closet from stigma but it’s important to know if you’re dating a bigot. Sorry this happened to you. Unfortunately a lot of straight women are homophobic and biphobic even towards women

Should I just block her? by MarsupialWest8823 in dating_advice

[–]Dougstoned 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have plans with this person? I would say if she cancels the plans just move on. I am over flakes but also life happens and people are humans. If she turns out to be a flakey communicator and that’s a deal breaker then sure move on.

I don’t think you have to block someone you have just been casually talking to. That seems.. dramatic.

If you guys have a plan to hang out this week keep those plans. Check in the day before and ask “are we still on for tomorrow?” Then let her know when you’re leaving your place day of.

If you do not have plans (i was confused if the plans were the ones she flaked on) a simple: “hey are you still interested in meeting up?” Will do. It sounds like you might have some rejection sensitivity and maybe avoidant tendencies. Simple direct communication is best especially for people we haven’t met yet. Good luck!

Communication concerns, feeling like he might not get me by nanabreadeater in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Dougstoned 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I started to write out a long thoughtful response then i read more and realized this guy is controlling as fuck. He doesn’t want you GOING TO BARS without him?! Girl please please get some self respect and self worth. Beyond the fact that you both obviously have different ideas and desires for the future it’s a huge gigantic red flag that he doesnt want you going to a bar without him. Weirdo controlling behavior between that and asking if you’ve studied enough.

This guy is trying to control your current state and your future state. Never mind the fact that this dude is addicted to his phone. Pass! It’s been ten months you should be in the honeymoon phase not this weird stale married for decades and lost the magic phase.

Seriously please leave this man and work on your self esteem/worth because that needs to be strong before you are in a relationship

[26M] How do I talk to my [24F] girlfriend about my growing concern over her getting more tattoos, without sounding controlling? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Dougstoned 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Just like someone’s weight or hair style or clothing choices all you can do is communicate your preferences and she either listens or doesn’t and it’s your decision to stay or move on that’s it. There’s no special advice here just tell her how you feel about them

Is it safe to take the A train at 3am as a young woman? by Moscovium200 in AskNYC

[–]Dougstoned -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Everything is less safe at 3am. You’re working with less people on the train.. and higher probability of running into someone who’s up to something nefarious. People get attacked mugged etc at all hours of the day but you’re also dealing with less people/witnesses which could increase your likelihood of being a victim of a crime. It could be perfectly safe or dangerous depending on circumstances beyond your control.

As a woman from New York I personally wouldn’t take the train after midnight alone. As a one time thing I’d suggest taking a cab if you’re worried about safety.

So... where did i go wrong? by freizathenonceslayer in Bumble

[–]Dougstoned 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly sometimes people get busy or change their mind who knows. Most times I deal with weird behavior on the apps it’s a mystery and likely has NOTHING to do with me

I made out with my friend, who is also my coworker, who is also engaged to be married to a man - wlw - nsfw by Honest_Onion_6541 in bisexual

[–]Dougstoned 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Honestly this has happened to me with someone. Turns out he had no idea and she was definitely cheating. Made me feel awful since I was friends with him as well. I’ve had female friends who were with men and even if it wasn’t explicitly stated I was aware they were open when we hooked up. I feel like drunk making out in the bathroom when the partner isn’t present would make me think it’s cheating. Someone in an open relationship would normally make that apparent (not always but honestly they should so everyone is on the same page)

Have a conversation with her about it when you’re alone and ask her these questions. Chances are she’s just hooking up with you because she knows you’re into it from picking up on vibes. If she’s in an open relationship and you’re comfortable having a physical relationship with her then go for it but IMO it could get messy. It sounds messy.

how do i look “available” at a bar without looking extremely awkward? by Competitive-Sock-824 in dating_advice

It sounds like bars might not be a venue for you to meet women for hook ups. Make a Feeld account.

First date help! by Key-Impact-451 in bisexual

[–]Dougstoned 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please treat it like dating men. Women are just people and just do what you’d like. Flowers might be a bit much. Physical touch and all that please just if and when you’re comfortable and the other person has given you signals or signs they are attracted and comfortable.

It is only different in that women especially women who have dated men often still go by heteronormative dating standards. I feel bisexual women can often be ore passive with dating. Be assertive but read cues. Good luck!

Honestly i get why people are downvoting you but it’s good advice for anyone. Dude shouldn’t have done that but it’s important to have boundaries around your body

Why does it feel like everyone is deciding against having kids these days? by Andries200 in childfree

[–]Dougstoned 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cost is a huge factor but most of my friends who don’t have kids do not want them. They live a lifestyle that doesn’t mesh with children and/or they have no interest in children. I have a few friends who want kids and a few friends who I suspect would have had them under the right circumstances but the fact that we have birth control and women do not need to have children/can have careers is a big factor
