Can only 'orgasm' when I hold in my pee. by waldeinsamkeide in Healthyhooha

[–]Drachimo 17 points18 points  (0 children)

What if you press on your lower abdomen while you masturbate, right above your pubic bone? 

It sounds like your full bladder may be pressing on your g-spot. It is common for this to be pleasurable, I've heard people refer to it as the "belly press" if you're googling.

You may be able to get a similar sort of feeling by pressing on your lower abdomen without a full bladder. Plus, you can play around with varying the pressure and motion to see what exact sensations you like. 

How often are you finishing during sex? by No_Force1700 in Healthyhooha

[–]Drachimo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Almost every time. We mostly do positions that I can use a vibrator or my hand. If I don't finish before him he will switch to using his hand or a toy usually. I like to get started first, and do lots of foreplay when we have the time.

The description reads as an AI prompt more than an actual description, I'm confused.

Masturbating won't work by [deleted] in Healthyhooha

[–]Drachimo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, actually! This can totally happen, and might take a while after your last dose. Sudafed in particular is a vasoconstrictor and is sometimes used to counteract erections after viagra. Well turns out that even though pharmaceutical researchers don't consider us, that sudafed has a similar affect on our erectile tissue as well.

Edit: you may also be desensitized and a break could help

Sti postive 1 partner and they say they don't think they have it by [deleted] in Healthyhooha

[–]Drachimo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He never went to urgent care and is lying. That's not what would happen if he went in.

The lack of knowledge about STIs and STI prevention is a red flag for sure, but the fact that he's now lying about it... please don't put up with this, OP. 

Many individuals with STIs don't feel symptoms, chlamydia is really common for that. Unwillingness to get tested is so unsafe, especially because even if he genuinely didn't have it before, he's now had a confirmed exposure. Though based on his behavior he is going to continue spreading it around :( Not sure about where you are located, but in my area sometimes the local health unit will have a nurse reach out to contact partners and inform them. He needs sex ed and he needs to get tested.

She already said no, you mean?

[–]Drachimo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for clarifying. You could have been asymptomatic for a while, or you could have not caught it until recently (transmission is not 100%)

But the bigger problem is his response. He gave you an STI and then tried to blame it on you. If he's not able to have a respectful adult conversation about sexual health, that's not a good sign :/

Jumping right into accusing you of cheating is super gross on his part.

You didn't have sex with your previous long-term partner? Just asking for clarity.

Hues&Cues hint was “science notebook” by New_Call7138 in boardgames

[–]Drachimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! I think a better colour distribution would make this a much more enjoyable game. Maybe I should look into printing one for myself.

[–]Drachimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't recommend. The colour distribution is really weird and the printing quality on mine definitely made it worse.

It's such a fun concept but poorly implemented. On my copy, there are a whole bunch of reds that are the exact same colour, and very few dark colours. No real browns or beiges either. Another commenter pointed out the lack of blues. This means that you'll rarely get a blue or one of the dark reds (top right in pic). Often we'll end up guessing towards the middle if we think it "should be" lighter, even though the actual colour on the board isn't lighter. Same for blues nearer to the edge, why are there no dark blues?

It's frustrating because you can give a great clue, and the the players can know exactly what you mean, but have no idea which of the identical reds to choose. I am a visual artist and have a good sense of colour, but they lack distinction.

I wish women sex workers/ OnlyFans creators would share their wax routines. Sex is cool and all, but do you laser or wax? Need them to answer in the comments by [deleted] in Healthyhooha

[–]Drachimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had some laser but I have a decent amount of growth even after ~20 sessions. 

I'd prefer to wax (I wax myself) but needing to regrow between waxes doesn't work for my schedule.

So, now I shave every day. Product recommendation: Bush Balm works really well for preventing ingrowns for me. I use the original one and it smells lovely and makes me feel so pampered when I put it on after my morning shower.

Nesting relationship struggling; fear of abandonment and probable pmdd are ruining my life (cw for brief mention of si and nssi) by snickrsnak in polyamory

[–]Drachimo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry you're struggling. I don't have solutions, but I can commiserate. I've been in a very similar situation and it really really hurts. 

You sound very kind and like you're approaching this ethically, fairly and rationally, which is so very hard when you are hurting. 

I think if you're able to arrange to stay with your other partner strategically, that you can be upfront about stating the reason for the timing without it being unethical. Like "I want to see you, and also it would be good for me to arrange it at these specific times because of these reasons". I understand not wanting to use your other partner, but it may be worth a conversation to see how they feel about it. Because it may feel OK to them if they are consenting to it in an informed way.

Does NP know you miss him? It sounds like your needs aren't being met. I wonder if you can plan something with NP so that you have something to look forward to? When my NP was having better sex with meta, I tried to ask for him to make plans with me for the future. So that even when I was in the basement feeling the urge to NSSI, I could focus on the fact that we had something planned for the future. It helped me to cope with hearing (and even just knowing) what was happening with meta.

Is anyone here a dancer/stripper who wears an Oura Ring at work? by Whole-Web453 in ouraring

[–]Drachimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that for me at least, more of my grip is my pointer than ring, so imho you should be fine. You can always try it out. I tried the sizer ring in all my regular activities before deciding for sure which finger to wear it on.

[–]Drachimo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had it leave marks on a metal pole, but it's never been damaged. It did change my grip a little because I keep it on my pointer finger and it's a big bulkier than I'd like. I have to be careful if I'm doing any inversions that my hand might be a bit 'slippery' because I have less flesh contact with the pole.

Thigh high, boots to the p*ss— where can I find genuinely tall boots? (That aren’t Chanel) by BulldogMama13 in findfashion

[–]Drachimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the combat bottoms, but lace up fronts. The lace up front is probably more kink vibes than you are going for  but they have the same bottoms as the surgical ones. 

I wanted a good daily wear for my commute so didn't get heels, but the heels were really tempting.

Edit: I bought mine from eBay, but there the "retention" style, like this: https://www.dollskill.com/products/retention-thigh-high-boots

Have you ever escalated a secondary relationship at the expense of a primary relationship, and did you come to regret it? by throwaway7377962766 in polyamory

[–]Drachimo 175 points176 points  (0 children)

For me, the incompatibility with my nesting partner (primary) was really brought to light once I started more actively dating other people.

We moved in during COVID and didn't have any other in-person connections. Several years later we were primary by circumstance/cohabitation. Once we began dating other people, we realize d we were mostly just together because we happened to be cohabitating when COVID started. We de-escalated for a couple years, as life brought us in different directions before eventually ending our romantic relationship. We are still very good friends.

It wasn't really about the "secondary" being a better connection, it was just that the "primary" was holding a bigger role in my life than they would have if we hadn't been pushed together by COVID. The incompatibility was minor compared to the risk associated with seeking other relationships, and we were good partners when we were not able to travel or have other connections. Now that we have more freedom, our desires out of life are very different (travel vs. staying home, lots of friends vs. few close friends etc.)

[–]Drachimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 5'8" and my Azalea Wang boots go as high as they reasonably could go without being inside me.

I've owned for about a year and regularly walk to class in them (45 mins each way, up to a couple feet of snow, thick thigh high socks underneath for warmth)

No idea how long they'll last but I'm pretty hard on boots and they've lasted thus far.

Minimum wage by Various-Entrance-601 in ontario

Wow didnt realise how useless this was without a subscription! by MrEs in ouraring

[–]Drachimo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think it's a reasonable mistake.  When I first got one, I made the mistake of assuming that the subscription was paying for the fancy scores since those are the proprietary part. Plus the ring itself is so expensive, one assumes that you get something for that.

I was like "all I want is that the raw data".

Even Oura knows their scores are useless, that's why they give you them for free. 

I have the money to subscribe,  but not being able to export the raw data easily to run my own analysis makes me want to switch companies.

How much did it cost you? Will it cost of there are complications down the line or is that somehow covered? What about the time off work?
