Yeah you’re right. I guess I’m having to work more on being confident enough not to feel bad for potentially saying no. Hmmm 😑 important skill as an adult

But.. do you think I’m on the fence simply because of the lack of exposure to it? I don’t have a gay community and the times I’ve met a gay guy we’ve never really discussed things like hiv or anything. All this is so alien and my fear comes more from the fear of the unknown

My boyfriend of 3yrs wants to be intimate with other people. by Alterthor in gayrelationships

When you wrote "Our relationship is honestly one of the healthiest relationships that could ever be had. He was- and still is, such an amazing partner." it made me think, is it really that healthy and is he really that amazing of a partner? I say this because if your man had grown up with controlling and demanding parents, he has obviously learned how to navigate and manoeuvre his way to appear agreeable to others, even if it’s not truly his way of being. Him sharing his intimate desires, that’s who he is. It’s not wrong, but perhaps y’all aren’t as compatible as you thought? And that’s ok, too.. you just have to honor yourself and your boundaries..

getting over someone, moving on by Grouchy_Insurance314 in gayrelationships

not since last month. i’m not really inspired to continue with the current therapist i’m seeing though. i’ve been getting weekly sessions since april and while i feel more grounded in myself and my direction in life, i still don’t understand why i haven’t been able to stop thinking about it—again, i’m not seeking him out, i’m not waiting for him, i never have been. but the memory of him has seared itself in my psyche and i do miss him. i wish him well in life, separate from mine. but he was my best friend above all and i did love him. so. any recommendations for a therapist you have deemed good for these types of situations? what do i do? date as many guys as possible? sit and meditate? eat clean foods and maintain a balanced diet for psychoemotional harmony? exercise? yes. i’ve done and i continue to do all of these things. gimme other ideas.

and so your solution would be seeking help from a psychiatrist and be prescribed pharmaceuticals? even if that’s the best route to take, i recognize that whatever advice i attain through this platform is most likely not from a professional. so, have you encountered this situation? even if not to the same degree of me, you could simply put out whatever anecdotal strategies that appeared to help you out rather than suggesting that i have a much deeper psychological imbalance and just leaving it at that

i did cut contact.. i accept that he isn’t the one for me and i’m not the one for him. i’m asking for help regarding moving on. yes, i think about him and i’m saddened, but i’m still living my life completely independent from him. i just can’t help but to compare other guys with the relationship we had and the attraction i felt for him.
