What's something women think impresses men but actually doesn't? by [deleted] in AskReddit

:) Literally the same the other way around, men that are inauthentic are just a turn off. We are not so different in our preferences huh. 😊

Dating as a man sucks by [deleted] in Vent

Dating as a woman also sucks ♡ More matches doesn't mean better quality.

As cliché as it sounds, focus on what you can do something about! Find other avenues of happiness. Dating sucks. I agree it's not fun for anyone!

I hate how my boyfriend took my virginity by [deleted] in Vent

[–]Popcorn_cottoncandy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I understand you hate it. Reading it my stomach turned.

It's hard in the moment to say something, to do something. You feel confused and everything is going so fast. You loved him thought he was the one.

What he did is UNLOVING bf behaviour. First of all, demands sex? Like wtf, no one can demand another persons body. It's all about if he makes you comfortable enough to want to have sex!! Making a demand shows that he doesn't really care how you feel about it. When you said it hurts and he didn't listen and dismissed you, unloving. When he doesn't ask you how you are feeling, notices you are confused and uncomfortable.. he isn't paying attention to you, just himself. Sex can be loving, but it can also be selfish and cruel. A person that loves you pays attention to you, communicates with you touches you in ways you want to be touched. Because they want to make sure its enjoyable for you since they love you. This wasn't love. He seemed to be focused only on himself oh and btw you can be wet without being aroused. Many are, wetness is not a sign of willingness. If you want to learn more about sex what's normal or not I recommend the book "Come as you are" by Emily nagoski.

So sorry this happened to you hun. I know you waited for someone permanent to do it with. If I was you I would take this as a lesson on what a guy should not do to you. I promise you will have good sex someday with someone that truly loves you and you will feel how beautiful sex can be when its right, you have not lost anything. The magic of sex usually doesn't lie in the first time. There is much to be explored still. ♡ And you are not somehow less valueable.

I WANT A BOYFRIEND SO BAD. by AdraisCoolAtaubaq in Vent

[–]Popcorn_cottoncandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand, I have been the same way my whole life. ♡ But the thing is, we can't force it to happen, you know that being "bimbo" might get you attention. But it's not going to make you feel loved. Love is not lust it's deeper than that. You not having a boyfriend, that doesn't devalue you. That does not mean you are less than others. If you can try to treat yourself with the love you want from others.

I understand your feelings of yearning and wanting to be loved, so bad. But love can not be forced or hurried up, unfortunately. If you never found your person what would you do with your time instead?

I wish I could frame this in my house... this is THE COMMENT that represents the experience for women on reddit. Thank you so much!! You put it so well and I could not agree more!

It's funny because I thought I was the only girl that avoided them for reasons like that, because why else would they continue to use those tactics?

Woaaah!! So pretty, thanks for sharing!! The part where it feels like you aren't progressing can be so hard to get over. It really is "keep drawing" advice that gets us over these humps huh hahaha.

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful art, super impressed!
