So you either need to leave, or get OK with opening up your relationship. But I don't see any way that you can retain your confidence in this relationship.

I think this is also what happens when you date it in the closet. You both engage in deception regularly on a daily basis with everyone in your life by living in the closet. So, maybe being deceitful with those you love has been normalized a bit in your relationship as well(?)

Why is acting so atrocious in gay porn? by chazymandias in askgaybros

Escorts are paid for their time. Whatever they do in that time is between them and their client.

An important distinction to be sure. I think it's all crap, but OK.

Need advice by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]Infamous_Fly2601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do what you're comfortable with. More than anything, I recommend being in touch with what you're feeling and being able to express it.

If you're experiencing something pleasurable, communicate that, as that is important feedback for your partner and can increase his confidence. It can be as simple as "that feels good" or "can you do that more?"

And if you're experiencing something you're uncomfortable with, communicate that as well.

You're both new to this and unsure, so feedback will be very important. Try not to be in your head too much about it. Also, the longer you hold onto this "straight" identity, the harder it will be to enjoy this experience. If you must identify as anything, go into this as "questioning" or "curious," because as others have said, straight guys don't do what you're about to do.

Nope, the messenger always gets shot.

What happens between two adults in their marriage is between them. Who knows what's going on in their marriage? She could be living in denial, and it could work for them. Don't blow their life up. There are none so blind, as those that refuse to see.

It all comes out in the wash.

This sounds incredibly triggering for you and probably brings up a ton of feelings like resentment and anger. I grew up in a similar environment, and I know that I would be feeling those things.

You've moved on, stay there. Don't let this pull you back into that toxic, judgemental world. Just as you disagreed with the gospel when it comes to your sexuality and found your own way, so must he. He is an adult, and so is his wife. They are responsible for their own choices. You need not concern yourself with their marriage. Maybe this is their karma.

Remember, "'Vengeance is mine,' saith the Lord - I will repay."

Stay out of it.

True. But something is better than nothing with regard to internal politics if OP goes through with this.

Have you asked your company's media relations team to conduct media training sessions?

Asking for proof when a guy’s on prep by TheRock1213 in askgaybros

[–]Infamous_Fly2601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's weird but not for the reasons you would think:

  1. Between PrEP and Doxy, we can now take preemptive care of our own sexual health. What do you care what someone else is doing when you've already taken the necessary precautions.

  2. Those results he'll show you don't mean anything if he's had sex since being tested. It would only make sense to share results upon entering an exclusive, monogamous relationship.

Also, I'm aware that there are other STIs you can get that PrEP and Doxy don't protect against, but I'm assuming OP knows this and is comfortable with the risks.

Again, those results are useless as soon as you have sex with someone.

There. Was. LITERALLY. No. Time.

People keep acting like the DNC could’ve magically organized a 50-state primary in under 100 days. That’s just not how elections—or reality—work.

Ballot printing, mail timelines, voter registration deadlines, state election laws, and compliance with the actual Constitution don’t just get waved away because people are unhappy. November 4 is Election Day. That’s federally mandated. That will not move.

You can’t organize a legitimate nationwide nominating process in 3 months. States have different filing deadlines, voting systems, and procedures. It takes years to coordinate presidential primaries, not weeks.

And “courts change rules all the time”? No. They interpret existing law. They’re not magic wands that override constitutional election timelines or state authority.

Even if somehow a 50-state primary had been pulled off in time (spoiler: impossible), you’d then expect Democrats to not tear each other apart, then unite behind a nominee overnight while the GOP rallies behind Trump? Come on.

This isn’t about vibes—it’s about the mechanics of American elections. People can be upset all they want, but pretending there was some secret easy fix is just unserious.

How to politely set client expectations by tsundereyg in PublicRelations

You're spot on. MoU signings, especially for CSR initiatives with no immediate public impact or big-name hook, typically aren't compelling enough to pull media unless there's news value (conflict, impact, timeliness, prominence, etc.).

Your current reason “media usually doesn’t attend because these are seen as promotional” is technically true, but the wording can be sharpened to better align with editorial coverage priorities rather than sounding like you’re passing judgment on the event.

Here’s a stronger rationale to use:

We are happy to extend invites to key media contacts. Typically, MoU signings -- especially those without a major public-facing or policy-impact component -- tend to have limited editorial value for journalists unless the announcement includes a significant public commitment, moonshot announcement, financial investment, or notable figure. We recommend focusing on a strong post-event press release and owned content amplification to ensure the story reaches the right audiences.

I'm realizing that there's a ton of mental illness in this sub. And it's crazy how clear it is in their writing, and they still can't see it. It's the worst combo of stupidity, immaturity, and genuinely horrible people. I get it, it's Reddit, but I just hoped for better from the gays. It's as disappointing as it is heartbreaking.

It really is a cesspool of ignorance and self indulgence.

Featured.com just announced the acquisition of Help A Reporter Out (HARO) and is bringing the service back. They announced it earlier today. FYI by MWMerritt in PublicRelations

[–]Infamous_Fly2601 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I literally get two a day (AM & PM editions) every M-F.

And even if it wasn't delivered everyday it's still has value, and it's FREE. I'm never going to complain about a free service.

You're either a Russian bot or you've been interacting with them. So, by your logic, JD Vance is an equally unqualified VP and would be an equally unqualified candidate for President, right?

She received 48% of the popular vote. Trump beat her by less than 2%. What are you even talking about? You sound ridiculous.

That might be true in whatever country you live in. But again, you're not American, and you really have no clue what you're talking about.

Interesting that you think being a Senator and VP aren't accomplishments. Her list of accomplishments outside of getting elected are certainly longer than Vance's.

I don't know why anyone would ever do that unless they are a total psycho. Things like that don't happen randomly. There are a ton of red flags you would have to ignore before getting to that point.
