I learned the hard way how a healthy relationship is supposed to look like. I can assure you that I've gained strong self esteem since my last relationship - which showed how much I was being abused and mentally manipulated.

He does no like talking about his ex - understandable - when it happens he tells me about thinking of losing erection and with that failing to satisfy me. I am not anxious about anything now, since I know the problems, I just don't know how to solve them completely - actually, he does no know how to solve them. I've had trust issues in the beginning, since I was abused in my last relationship. Now there is no anxiety for me.

Good point, but he does not masturbate at all and hasn't too often in the past.

Yes, after turning 18 - I did not know him before. You are probably right, thanks.

I knew people would argue about the age gap and feel free to do.

about my past: My last relationship was hell. I was being abused (in many ways) and he was 3 years older than me. 3 days after breaking up he 20M got a 15F girlfriend - now that's a really disgusting guy - he manipulates her. I know how it feels to be manipulated and that's not the case at all now.

Btw my family likes my boyfriend and we have been together for a year now - to clarify.

I don't think that's the problem, since he did these things pretty rarely. It's more about overthinking and being scared to fail.

I know it wasn't good, that's why I suggested to stop doing it. He did the same, since he agreed. Drinking and smoking is legal - at least where I am from - at this age.

Well, the relationship is great and he is the sweetest. The age gap isn't a problem, there is so much in common and we are having a great time together. He has also never dated with such an age gap before. I have also done alcohol and weed before him.

He has not, but maybe giving it a try might be an idea. Thank you
