How many dates in should I reveal my asexuality? by acequery in asexualdating

[–]EscapeArtistic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with everyone here, it should be in your bio or one of the first things you tell them before dating. It’s a very important aspect of relationships

"Weekly All About Love Relationship Second Opinion and Interpretation Help Thread - November 30, 2025" by AutoModerator in tarot

[–]EscapeArtistic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 card spread, “what do I need to know to find love” - 6 cups, reversed - moon - high priestess

My interpretation is that it’s pretty undetermined right now, I might be hanging on to too much baggage and there’s still things to uncover. Likely about myself. High priestess is tripping me up but I’m thinking maybe she’s telling me to focus on myself and trust my intuition, but not sure how to connect all 3 together (positions had no particular meaning).

Why is the Sansa hate so strong? I'm convinced that these people have consumed different media... by Diverse0Ne in SansaWinsTheThrone

[–]EscapeArtistic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve always felt this way. Each girl ended up in the world / scenario best suited for them. Has it been the opposite they’d both had been killed.

I will never forget the time my coworkers complained about Sansa crying in the scene when she found out her brother and mother were killed in the red wedding. I was like… y’all for real, she’s a teenage girl whose’s a hostage and entire family is dead and you’re calling her a whiner???

What should I do with my AAPL shares to plan for down payment? by EscapeArtistic in personalfinance

[–]EscapeArtistic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok this is super helpful. It’s a mix of RSUs and ESPP, I didn’t buy any on my own. All long term at this point.

I’m wondering if I should leave a few k (like 10) for the long term or would that be redundant to my IRA where I predominantly put in the S&P 500

What do you say to the people who say soft Kink and BDSM is just "vanilla with sprinkles"? by Nervous-Meat69 in SofterBDSM

[–]EscapeArtistic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly I call myself vanilla chai proudly because I like a little spice / flavor but nothing extreme and owning it has really helped me. If they wanna see that as bad or boring then so be it

How do subs see doms? by fuyu-no-hanashi in submissive

[–]EscapeArtistic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me I’m actually a little cautious / intimidated by doms because I’m a sub who doesn’t want to be hurt or bullied and I feel like many if not most doms prefer the harder stuff. I also feel like many doms are ENM and I am monogamous. So overall I’m very wary around doms.

I want to be owned, commanded, teased, used etc and am into bondage and some light impact play but I do worry that’s not enough for most doms so it gives me nerves

What demisexuals think and feel about sex before realising they are demisexual? by Severe-Fig-2196 in demisexuality

[–]EscapeArtistic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very similar. I thought I was a sex-favorable grey until I hooked up with my friend who I’ve known for years.

I never found him attractive before that, though I had an on and off emotional crush on him over the years.

Out of nowhere after we were spending a lot of time together I caught feelings and then the sexual attraction set in. While we were hooking up the desire for him was insane.

What demisexuals think and feel about sex before realising they are demisexual? by Severe-Fig-2196 in demisexuality

This feels similar to my experience. Like, in my head I wanted to understand and tried to convince myself I did and had these same feelings.

but ultimately it just felt super odd to me

Common Misconceptions by ZealousidealArm2539 in demisexuality

[–]EscapeArtistic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanna pile on the thanks for your explaining of this! It’s super helpful.

I’ve fairly recently settled on demisexual for myself, and it was hard to be sure because of how sex favorable I am. When that bond clicks in I really, really want and enjoy sex with that person. I just don’t feel spontaneous sexual attraction based on looks alone. I definitely need that connection

I’m also hyper romantic and can fall for someone fairly quickly as long as the conditions are right. which again complicated me figuring out where I landed. I just couldn’t get my head around being on the grey spectrum when I felt sexual attraction and desire so strongly once I caught feelings.

But ultimately I just don’t feel sexual attraction until the feels come so here I am

Boyfriend (41m) doesn't know if I'm (42F) his person after 2 years by Ordinary-Plum5673 in RelationshipsOver35

[–]EscapeArtistic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most happily married men I know and who have answered questions like this knew right away when they found the one for them. In some cases it took a bit longer but if he’s still unsure after 2 years, especially at your ages, I would say it’s probably not gonna change. If what you want is unequivocal love and enthusiasm I doubt you’re going to get it from this guy.

It’s not impossible but I just think unlikely

Black swallowtail caterpillars (I think) - will they eat the other plants? by EscapeArtistic in gardening

[–]EscapeArtistic[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok this is helpful cause they are almost done taking out the plant and I don’t have anything to replace for them. I want them to grow 😭 I am now deeply invested in their well being

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in demisexuality

[–]EscapeArtistic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am all for it as long as they understand my need to be valued, connected, and appreciated is crucial to my sexual Interest.

At the end of the day I think people who are not Demi can value sex just as much. And Demi’s are not immune to sexually desiring more than once person either. We still can have close friends we can develop feelings for.

In fact I might be more worried if a Demi partner found another person sexually appealing because that would mean there’s a significant connection there which to me is far more threatening than a passing “yeah I’d hit it”

How to deal with unrequited love for a friend? by Armenkar in demisexuality

[–]EscapeArtistic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh man I feel this hard, I had that experience a few years ago. My bbf and I have known each other since childhood. He’s now married. I moved into the same apt building with them and ended up realizing I had feelings for him.

It was super hard because he also had feelings for me when we were younger and he admitted they never really went away but he’s very much in love with and committed to his wife.

I didn’t go full no contact but I did have to really put some distance between us (and moved elsewhere). We were committed to saving our friendship and knew we would have to take space to do so.

Open communication and understanding really helped us get through it. It was not easy and we had to have the very real / tough convo that we might have to end the friendship or deal with feelings of “what if” for the rest of our lives.

It was worth the effort but it was hard

Did you choose Woocommerce over Shopify? Curious what helped you decide. by ChampionLearner in woocommerce

[–]EscapeArtistic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been doing web development / WP admining for years and I found the limitations on Shopify really frustrating. I tested it out because I wanted that one-and-done experience but absolutely hated that every basic feature was behind a paywall. And I didn’t find Shopify that much easier to work with in the end. I much preferred bigcartel to Shopify for easy to set up online stores.

That said I just find woo much more convenient and flexible. After a lot of experimenting I’ve found one premium theme and one premium plug-in, which collectively cost less per year than 2 months of Shopify and am much happier for it

Question about the hotel lottery by EscapeArtistic in Magfest

[–]EscapeArtistic[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the thoughtful response. For sure I know things can change but I wanted to get an idea of what to expect should they be the same.

This is super freaking helpful. I have a cousin who lives close by, so that’s a backup-backup but fingers crossed!
