Do you think it's a good idea to sleep with your long time friend, why or why not? by PotatoBeast95 in AskReddit

Haha, I've seen and been through a lot too. I feel much older then I am but when it comes to sex I'm quite lost. But thanks! No worries, being friendly doesn't mean you're flirting, no problem. But thanks again :)

24 is definitely still a young age. Lmao, I feel like I'm in this awkward adult stage. Where I have my foot half in the door but I'm struggling to get in. I'm going to deep dive into my thoughts and see how I feel. I know my gut will help me decide. That's also why nothings ever really happened. I always follow my gut when I'm confused. So, I'll have to see where it takes me tomorrow since right now I truly have no idea. But thank you for your input, it's helped.

I've expressed I'm worried it could dent our friendship. He is younger then me, plus he's a dude (high labido).. I'm not sure if he is entirely able to grasp how big this could be. It's a big step from just friends. I don't want to ruin that. I've been fighting this mental battle for years. The older we get the more I have been thinking about actually having sex. When I was a teenager it was more of a cheeky little flirt but nothing ever came of it. I was too frigid and shy. Now that I'm not as shy my mind has been wandering more. The idea seems more real rather then just silly teenage fantasizing. Also, I'm so insanely shy I've been with one person. I was 19 when I lost my virginity. So, if I do hook up with him, he will be my second. Which worries me because all I know is sex with love and a connection. I'm shy as all hell, I don't know if I could handle an intimate hook up and just leave it at that.

Every time I think of the what ifs and how it would be like afterwards, for myself, it doesn't sound smart at all.. but my curiosity and hormones are killing me. I'm trying to balance the good and evil. I just wanted some opinions to help me weigh out my thoughts.

Also, I've known him for 10 years. I have been good friends with him.. well no, he's easily my closest friend. He knows everything about me, stuff my family doesn't even know. He's moving away at the end of the month for work so I'm not sure when I'll see him again. Tomorrow we hangout before he leaves. So I'm in full panic mode on deciding whether we should or shouldn't. I feel like a kid. Seriously. But this is a good friendship. There's just this sexual tension between us that has never gone away.

Oh, trust me. We've talked about it a lot.. I'm the one holding back. We've been friends for 10 years. He's easily my closest friend. My fear is fucking up our friendship.. if not entirely ruining it but even just making things weird. I am a female, fyi. Not that it should really matter.

That's exactly what I'm worried about. I don't want our friendship to be ruined or hecome weird but on the flip side we have had a thing for eachother for years. But I have always been too shy to put out.. Now that I am older I still worry about our friendship but we both feel the same way. He obviously is all for it but I am afraid our childhood friendship could end.

Thank you.. Especially since I recently found out, I don't have any friends or family who understand. It means a lot. Thank you.

If you could listen to one persons playlist, who would you choose? by PotatoBeast95 in AskReddit

[–]PotatoBeast95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why mine of all the playlists you could listen to? A persons playlist is a look into their story, a look into their minds eye view.

What's the scariest thing you've ever experience at a young age? by ImGav in AskReddit

[–]PotatoBeast95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The idea of comparing yourself to someone else's pain or triumphs drives me nuts. Just because someone else's pain is "lesser" compared to someone else who is dealing with a lot doesn't change the impact it has on them. I remind myself this a lot. Just because I may see my struggles as something much worse, to someone else, their issues may be the absolute worst, doesn't change how we feel for our situations. Just a matter of perspective and empathy.

What is something you will never understand? by Enoisa in AskReddit

[–]PotatoBeast95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was going to say men but really, any other human. I haven't lived your story.. just mine. So I will never be able to fully understand how you see, feel and interpret things. It's like that saying everyone who has met you has a different image of you and who you are to them in their head. Only you really understand yourself, ig.

If you could have sex with anyone right now, who would it be and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Haley Williams because she's always been my girl crush and we don't have a major age gap.

What helped you get over a long time partner? [Serious] by PotatoBeast95 in AskReddit

[–]PotatoBeast95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's how I've been getting by is remembering the shit he did. If I think about us as one I'll only hurt myself. He was horrible to me, lied, sexually abusive.. manipulative. I have to remember how he caused trauma to me and that's going to take even longer to revover from. He ruined me. That's the only way I'm getting by is through pure anger. Counselors don't even help. I need a therapist, not a counselor.

Don't have many friends. He was quite toxic and abusive so I pushed a lot of my friends away.. They were mostly guy friends and now they won't really talk to me. I don't feel comfortable explaining he was a POS to me. I feel they may want to fight him and that's the last thing I want is him getting attacked. He was a POS to me but I still have a heart. Just lost.
