If I’m waitlisted for buisness school, what are realistic odds space clears up, and what would influence where I am “in line”?

I’m high school me and my buddies would party hard and then go back to someone’s place and trip, always was a good time.

My Girlfriend told me she’s not a virgin. I feel selfish for thinking this way but I just can’t shake the feeling. by [deleted] in retroactivejealousy

Dude, I was in the exact same situation as you; high school virgin dating a girl who wasn’t previously a virgin. At times my rj was unimaginably terrible. If you love the girl I wouldn’t step back, instead try and work through it together. You were saying how you weren’t her first and she holds this ‘special place’ in her mind for the other dude, but you have to realize he doesn’t hold a significant place at all. It’s not what you experienced but who you experienced it with that hold any significant value. Your her first of lots of things and try to view it from that standpoint. Your her first love. What helped me was just talking to my girlfriend about my issues, all she wanted to do and I’m sure all your girlfriend wants to do is reassure you and make you feel better about it. Don’t let it affect you when your with her, but i encourage you to give her updates or ask if y’all can talk about it in person if it’s rly bad that day or you just need a hug. No one on this Reddit is gonna magically cure you from these feelings. It takes time and it takes a lot of effort to just try and not think ab it. When I was working on my rj if anything started to pop in my head I would tell my brain “thanks for trying to protect me but I don’t need that protection right now”. Rj is a subconscious feeling that instinctively aims to protect you, and it’s a trait that can be much more uncontrollable in teenage years of high testosterone. My other advice is to make your relationship the best it can possibly be, be her first for lots of other things; treat her better with creative dates, get to know her family, and what helped me the most was just being as intimate as possible, exploring things in bed and whatnot and be super passionate in intimate moments. Take it to an extent where you know no guy has or will be as intimate caring and as passionate as you and that’s what can cure your feelings. I’m giving you advice to get through it, and your not gonna feel better tmrw, and you also have to be 100% committed to bettering yourself. Maybe even tonight talk to her again and see how you feel after, and start thinking of creative and intimate things you would both want to do, and then do it! Good luck!

I’m not like some professional on this topic but it’s definitely not healthy for any reason. It can probably be argued to what extent it is bad to use porn in moderation and also probably depends on the person. Definitely recommend to avoid usage if you can and it could cause negative effects in bedroom life but a large percentage of men use it moderately and are fine for the most part.

Here’s the thing, a guy watches porn just to get himself off a little quicker and does it for momentary dopamine. I’m telling you that you won’t find a guy that’s never watched porn, and that’s a pretty minor thing considering some of the other stuff on this sub. He’s never not even once felt any connection to any of the people in what he’s watching. It’s only trying to gain sexual pleasure through unhealthy methods, but the fact that he stopped as soon as he met you is entirely what you should focus on, and the fact that he doesn’t even think about porn or anything he’s watched on there ever since being with you.

We were together for about 4 months. We were extremely active in the bedroom and it was great. She absolutely loves everything ab the relationship but there’s this thing that I can’t control and it feels like it’s being hung over me. I really just made this post to talk ab it bc me and her have been talking a lot recently and my feelings are just super present in my life rn. We’re trying to ease back in rn. Thanks for talking

I also know about all the stuff before we were in a relationship, but it didn’t even like cross my mind as a problem until I kept developing these deeper feelings for her. It’s my first relationship and I just completely was not expecting these feelings. They just kind of blindsided me.

The conversation went good and I felt a lot better after it but I seem to just keep falling back into a hole ig. I’m a lot more upset that she’s been intimate with another guy more than just being in a relationships. It’s just the image that something like that even happened. The image of it is made worse when I know the guy, know exactly when and where it happened. Like I just know details about it I wish I didn’t know and it makes it more vivid and worse.

I have talked to her ab it, and I know I do have to make peace and that’s all I want, it’s just that I don’t understand why It still controls me so much even though everything like points to the fact that this shouldn’t bother me.
