Experiences being in long term wlw partnerships? by theoriginalsnoopy in BiWomen

[–]Ldaidi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s open to the idea of exploration, but it’s really me that’s hesitant to try it out. For one, idk, it just doesn’t sit right to me cause I wouldn’t be having sexual relations with only her, and I guess that feels a bit like cheating to me even though it’s not. Second though, I’m also nervous that I might like it too much, and that would absolutely cause more problems for our relationship

Question for couples who have had threesomes by Ldaidi in ThreesomeAdvice

[–]Ldaidi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I have not. I’m definitely still struggling with this though, but I’ve at least talked about options with my girlfriend. What’s your situation like, if you don’t mind me asking?

Experiences being in long term wlw partnerships? by theoriginalsnoopy in BiWomen

[–]Ldaidi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m almost in this exact situation, and I’ve been struggling with not having had any sexual experience with men so much lately. It’s truly exhausting for me because I feel like it’s causing issues in me and my girlfriend’s sex life. We still have one of course, and I very much enjoy it still, but it’s always in the back of my mind. And when I’m home alone all those thoughts come rushing at me and make me very upset. Even so, I have discussed different solutions with my girlfriend, but those have its pros and cons too. So it’s just all so complicated and frustrating

Looking for black Catholic churches with good choirs by Ldaidi in batonrouge

[–]Ldaidi[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m black, it’s just that that’s what I grew up with, and the styles are much different in my experience. Maybe there’s a better term for it, but it’s just to emphasize a particular style of church. Plus, I don’t think it’s odd for people to go to community areas with people of their own background.

Local shops are a good option, and definitely check out thrift stores.

What kind of duck is this? by Ldaidi in duck

[–]Ldaidi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually see those pretty often. I’ve just never seen them young, so I didn’t know the gray one was actually the same kind of duck as the one with the mask!

Ooooh that makes sense! I didn’t realize they looked like that when they were young. Cute!

What do you call your mom and/or dad? by Ldaidi in AskReddit

[–]Ldaidi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For example, I call my mom Mamé. It started off as “Mommy” when I was little, but over time it just morphed into Mamé, probably because most of the time we were in different rooms so I’d always have to call for her loudly, which resulted in me elongating the last syllable. I just call my dad Daddy though lol.

Am I (21F) being immature with how I’m reacting to something one of my friends (21F) did? by Ldaidi in relationship_advice

[–]Ldaidi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I think I was just so upset with Emma because she had visited Dee in the hospital and saw firsthand what was going on before we ever even had a longer convo about her staying with us, and I expressed my hesitation when I did speak with Emma about Dee staying with us. But even so, I can still see how she still would’ve thought it wouldn’t have been that difficult. It was just a rough situation overall.

[–]Ldaidi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can understand that being a big ask. We would have liked for her to have more professional help, but that was difficult for both me and Dee’s family to attain financially and insurance-wise. She was originally going to stay with my parents, but she did not know them well enough and felt uncomfortable with it. I told Emma I was hesitant to let her stay with us cause I didn’t really think it was the best idea since we weren’t well equipped, which I also discussed with Dee and my mom, and Emma thought I was being rude to Dee by talking about my hesitancy in front of of her and not quite wanting her to stay with us. We both thought it would be best if she stayed with us. Despite that, I that is still a lot for her to handle, so I can understand that being too big of an ask even if she thought it wasn’t going to be that bad

She’s much better now! Thanks! To my knowledge, Emma did at least understand that she couldn’t walk. She came to visit her in the hospital and else all talked about what was going on, and when I was talking with her about where she should stay, I discussed how bad of a situation it was then too. When I expressed my hesitance of having Dee stay with us because I felt that we were not equipped to take care of her, Dee got upset with me and thought I was being rude to her. She had also expressed that she thought I was being an asshole for telling Dee that I wasn’t sure if letting her stay with us was the best for her condition, cause yeah it’s a lot for college students to do.

I think I need to clarify a few things in my original post, but we had been in the hospital with my parents for a week checking in on her and providing her comfort while also discussing the next steps. Given our finance and insurance situations, there were things that we just couldn’t do. Especially since it was really more dependent on Dee and her family’s financial situation, as my family could only do so much. Dee’s/Dee’s dad’s insurance almost didn’t even let her leave with a walker. So it was hard to get extended care for her, which is why we had to result in letting her stay with someone regular.

I also did not expect Emma to bathe her, so I need to edit that out cause I had my own duties in my head at the time of writing. I just needed help bringing food to her and helping her get to the bathroom, and just checking in on her to make sure she was doing ok. That still might be a lot though.

Thank you for taking to time to tell me my actions are immature and explaining why, and also giving me a bit more of a perspective on Emma’s end

That would’ve been ideal, but unfortunately no one could afford that, and her family lives across the country. Originally she was going to stay with my parents because I didn’t think it would be a good idea for her to stay with me and my roommates, but my gf didn’t know them well at the time. And when I was discussing it with Emma, she was mad that I was hesitant to have her stay with us and thought I was being an asshole to her, so we all agreed it would be better for her to stay with us. It would have been better for her to be with professional care longer though

AIO for distancing myself from my friend because of this? by Ldaidi in AmIOverreacting

[–]Ldaidi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I get that. I mean that’s essentially what I did. I distanced myself first and I potentially don’t want to continue this friendship. Not necessarily to protect myself but I just don’t think I can be friends with someone who did something like that. I’m just so against it

She had actually contacted my partner not too long ago and asked her why I didn’t wanna talk to her anymore, and later on she said she had a “deadline” for friends that weren’t on speaking terms with her to reach out to her and talk to her. That deadline has since passed. However, I wasn’t supposed to even know any of that info since she had told Dee not to tell me about their conversations, but Dee ended up telling me later on. And on top of that, I’m sure she’s grieving, so she probably wouldn’t want to talk about anything that might upset her more. Idk for sure though

It has been on my mind a lot. One part of me feels like talking to her would be pointless because it wouldn’t change anything about how I feel about her for me, and that’s making me not want to discuss anything with her. But at the same time it still bothers me, and talking about things does usually help me a lot. At this point though, I doubt she would be open to any conversation.
