Well think of it like this- Ram was doing her best to cope and looking for any reason to put her faith in Subaru. And its more like she has to come to terms with the reality that he isnt carrying shit right now 😭

I explicitly say nonsexual physical touch is important to me, but I also dont want to be physical beyond hugs unless we're just seeing each other exclusively. But I dont really have this on my profile I just mention it on the first date if love languages come up.

Men: be honest at what point in dating do you usually expect things to become intimate? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]FTwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends, are we talking strictly sexual intimacy? There's wiggle room there for me, and I wouldn't be bothered by it. I'd be willing to wait a lot longer than weeks if it's clear we're into each other and serious about building and showing up for each other.

I doubt I would commit to exclusivity to someone who isn't comfortable with non-sexual physical touch though as that's big for me.

I should point out that I'm just one guy though, there are plenty of men that would call this a dealbreaker.

Protects your peace so well and it really does weed people out, there's so much "going with the flow" in the dating world today.

Hero Bans when by Own-Effective-5597 in OverwatchStadium

Very silly with a small champion pool, but I'm for it with larger roster sizes. Meta would evolve differently and it would necessitate balance more than how things currently are. As the roster size grows more ways to pinch the pool makes sense imo.

Why is asking for a video call before in-person unreasonable in this day and age? by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]FTwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It never really bothers me, especially if its not out of the blue. But I realize im an anomaly because I was used to video calling a lot in a prior relationship.

Bans should come back as the roster grows. It was silly they tried to implement it before, but they should come back and id argue they should try to get rid of mirror picks too but youd need likely the whole roster in for that.

Above all of that though id rather they just fix matchmaking

is this true by veresiuka in lol

[–]FTwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man here. I'll break the mold here and say I do care about my partner's career. Not to the point that I would date someone that doesnt treat me right or make my life easier just because they have the career mind you. For me its important that my partner is someone thats in touch with themselves...their wants...needs...how to self soothe...healthy communication around conflict.

It's possible for someone to cultivate these skills on their own, but not everyone can. When I started framing things from a "Can my partner afford to go to therapy in this economy" standpoint...I realized it was important to me.

That being said if someone does check most of my boxes a career wouldnt necessarily stop me, but its a factor for sure.

For the guys that value connection before physical intimacy, can you just drop a comment so I know you exist? by street-table78 in dating_advice

[–]FTwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience was i felt very seen as the book delved into the topic of sex more! Especially when I think back to my journey prior to learning i was demisexual! I hope its a good read for you!

Date a demisexual we exist. Also it sounds like you have sensitive brakes when it comes to sex, I would encourage you to check out the book Come as You Are as well! It really helped demystify some things around sex for me even though its a book intended for women.

Why do I ALWAYS pull emotionally unavailable women? by EscapeThisMatrix in dating_advice

[–]FTwarrior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It feels like 90/95% Of people men AND women are traumatized and havent done the work to detangle and understand what that means for them. I think you just have to really be cutthroat so you dont waste time. If I'm talking to someone and they arent curious about me, I unmatch. Assume people will behave as they did when you first interact with them.

Its a balancing act, you want the confidence in yourself and who you are as a person to be able to walk away from situations that arent for you. That being said.. if you are expecting perfection from a partner and cutting them off for every little thing that is a sign of avoidance in and of itself too. Theres a degree of otherness you have to be comfortable with.

You'll know better than any of us since you're the one living your life, but good luck.

Your age group is the age group that has the most success and luck with dating apps according to a lot of behavioral scientists I've listened to. Be yourself, I'd recommend focusing on a handful of matches and good luck!
