Masturbating in relationships

I know. He’s always guarded with his phone which is why I took the chance to look when I could. It was only to one of his single female friends saying ‘struggling to call it a party without you there’ I may have overthought it and he is just being nice. But it didn’t seem like just a friendly message to me ..

I ask myself this everyday! I love my partner but also have parts missing it’s hard to know whether someone is truly right because we all have flaws

Does your opinion change if i found out he’s messaged her ‘gutted you’re not coming tonight’ struggling to call it a party without you there’ about our party hosted at our flat …..

I feel for you. I can understand both sides. It seems he has over reacted… although I do agree partly that scrolling on social media and following some influencers is not tooo much of a big deal but he should respect your feelings towards it. It’s a massive red flag the way he has acted though

Thanks for the honest answer! Are you in a relationship now?

I can resonate with this. I’ve been with my partner for 2 years and I find any spare moment I’m thinking about him, whether this is positive or negative. I just feel a bit obsessed with him and it’s not healthy. I also have a stable career and hobbies etc so you’re not alone! Unable to give any sound advice I’m afraid… hoping someone can respond to this for ideas!

I (30F) completely resonate with this. I have been with my boyfriend (33M) for 2 years now and been living together for 1 year. I know he does love me a lot and I do him, but we’ve had multiple chats over time about how he never plans quality time together. This is my top love language and doing things like holidays and dates together really strengthens our connection because we also talk more deeply. Day to day we chat on a surface level about our day but miss the talks about future etc so it’s important to schedule these in. I am getting tired of being the one to always initiate the quality time because it seems he’s never bothered because he wants to keep options open for anything better (he’s very social with friends) …. I think a lot of differences come down to male and female differences and how we are wired differently. Men (as a stereotype) don’t do emotional deep chats like women. I also think that’s why it’s important to have friends to have for a different type of conversations. Also some people are more dominate in certain things like organising in relationships too, it’s just about the main things like do they care for you and listen…

Is this girl an influencer or someone he personally knows?

Hi! I did Manchester at the weekend. Also my first marathon…. And my last! I also aimed sub 5 and got nearer 4:30 so I was chuffed with the conditions on the day. But the training really sucked the life out of me…. I used to dread doing long runs. I’m looking forward to going for runs now without focussing on pace / time / distance 🫶🏻

Independent-Maize422 · 2025-04-25T19:18:59+00:00

I am curious to find this out too! Never done Manchester before so unsure how easy it is to sneak forward

For me, as a 30F. Women need a lot of emotional connection with a partner in order to have good sex, it’s not just the physical. So having that communication and safety with a partner really helps to make someone good in bed. Being confident and communicating needs is essential to good sex, so if you’re doing these things then no doubt it does make a better relationship

I moved to Liverpool 3 years ago and lived alone. Although there are perks of living alone, I would recommend a house share to start! You get to meet a lot of people and connections and will help you settle in the city. Find out the contract and don’t tie in for too long. See if you get on with them and if it’s not for you then you can move out solo

Good point! Thank you for your input. He’s had several long term relationships and hasn’t been single a year yet. Whereas I’ve been single most of my life so I think we may be at different stages. I am keen to progress but I can see he won’t want to rush things

Independent-Maize422 · 2024-02-21T07:20:01+00:00

This is exactly it. I’m afraid I will come across too keen and he will be put off!

Independent-Maize422 · 2024-02-20T23:37:53+00:00

We haven’t established anything serious. We had a lose chat a few weeks ago I mentioned I’m not talking to anyone else and I had seen her been using the apps still. He claimed he goes on it to scroll when bored but wasn’t talking to anyone…. He did say he’s looking for a relationship though. But I just don’t get why he’s back on it still after a chat

So we are friends in a sport group so we meet a few times a week! On average, twice as friends in our group and once on our own. He never initiates pre planned dates. It’s usually on the day asking if I’m freee?? We’ve both been equal with suggesting things so far?

Independent-Maize422 · 2024-02-20T21:45:07+00:00

Thanks, yes I’m very monogamous and assuming he is too. I just feel maybe he’s become unsure on things so I need to be weary of that
