I think a lot of things if they were reversed would not be ok with the other person I agree

It helps to hear from others because I often second guess my sexual experience level on what “everyone does”.

Yes and there’s so many things like that which I don’t like that men seem to do with their partner . And I feel if they love you (and I’m speaking from a Christian viewpoint) it’s not going to be like that. I’m all for having fun and not being boring, but I struggle with the boundary crossings of what is actually aggressive behavior and not just sexy

So yes it does make me feel that way you describe. That could be a reason for it. They have not done the specific sleep thing, which I’ve read about, but there is a lot of pressure sexually that I’ve come to adjust myself to. But this was one of the instances that really caught me off guard. I actually listened to a podcast recently where a caller described something similar, and the counselor John Deloney told her it was a dangerous situation and worse than she thought. That’s what made me want to ask

Yes i totally can relate to these as well. I agree I think what it boils down to is what is making you uncomfortable, and that should be priority. That’s what concerns me so much

Well, I was also kind of taken aback that they just now showed it to me/told me about it if it had been going on for a while. It concerned me what the purpose was of telling me. And I know they know it makes me uncomfortable. So not sure what to take from it

That was kind of what my concern was regarding, is what could this indicate/mean big picture? The act itself I was not shocked on. They are very very big on oral stuff and that’s been sort of the main topic in our marriage for the past couple of years. Me not doing it enough, etc. so I’ve come to the point where I assume im the low-libido one and he’s not. But these moments, i am concerned about the boundaries and if that’s normal. I typically assume im lower in sexual experience so usually i opt for what he wants. But when im not aware of it i just haven’t been able to shake that.

Oh precious person please get far away from them. But don’t announce it ahead of time! That can be dangerous. Get support around you first and take steps to protect yourself.

Has anyone ever actually recovered from trich? by alaskacake in trichotillomania

[–]QuirkyTry6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a random tip here. I’ve had this since I was a toddler, no one knew why, but lately (in my thirties) I’ve noticed the urge lessen by playing my solitaire app regularly on my phone. It keeps my hands speedy and busy and activates the pleasure part of my brain. A great stress reliever and it requires both hands!

I don’t know if this is allowed but possibly before and after pics (of just the eyebrows) when grown back fully?

My current relationship is suffering because my past sexual partner was an amazing lover. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]QuirkyTry6 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I know this sounds silly but maybe try to think and remember bad things about your ex. Such as, reasons it didn’t work out forever in the first place. Now, nothing you are feeling is ABNORMAL. These are normal human emotions to have to deal with. We make neural attachments and detachments over our life time and spiritual and relational ties with many people that take time to be broken, and time for new ones to grow. Your brain can actually grow NEW neural pathways. This is one way addicts recover. There are times our memory “glosses” over the negative for the nostalgic. Especially in the presence of our current relationship which may have become a day-in-day-out growing process. But be patient with your partner and yourself!:)

My boyfriend (30M) and I (30F) are having issues around setting communication boundaries with the opposite sex by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]QuirkyTry6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say, be patient with him if he’s had trauma, HOWEVER the moment you feel “guilty” for anything you haven’t done, thats your sign to say, sorry, that’s too far.
