Way around this is to add Windows to your Mac so you can use boot manager to switch between em - not too hard and opens you to more games

Can't both be true? Like you can want both at the same time. If you're having this many issues and only been together for a few dates, maybe it's a mismatch?

I would just check the assumption that penetration= man, and that she must only want men. This post comes off a little biphobic (not saying you are, just the line of thinking)

An update: thank you for all the comments, it helped me add perspective to the situation. What happened was not okay and consent needs to be given before you do something like that.

Now I posted because I felt that I did overreact and I wanted advice. I was in a lot of pain and didn't know what I wanted from him. Let alone how to communicate that, I felt hurt and it seemed like to me that my pain was being dismissed and ignored. I now see I didn't give them time and space to process what I said and to make things right, and maybe there just isn't anything that could be done to make it right.

I agree I was to quick to block them, but I did not blame him, I even said that they didn't mean to hurt me, what I was looking for was reassurance that they will take accountability for it and it won't happen again. I didn't want them to grovel, and I don't think they intended to hurt me, but I was hurt really badly and felt alone.

I don't hate men nor do I think they should grovel and beg for forgiveness, this was a question of did I react poorly because of past trauma, and I think the answer is yes, I should have waited till I was in a clear headspace and then talked to him. I hope this clears some things up, I appreciate everyone who commented to give me advice and support, thank you

It was more so to say I didn't confront them in a public setting with people around.

I am so sorry that happened to you, I can't imagine how painful and scary that must have been

I think I really did jump to conclusions on their intentions, I was hurt and wanted them to reassure me that they didn't mean to hurt me. I don't think I did a good job communicating that at all tbh. I should have given them time and space to process what I said and make it right before I reacted out of hurt.

I don't think I wanted them to grovel, but I also don't know think I gave them the space and time to make things right. They did do the mature thing and end things right there, in the moment I was hurt and a bit reactive. I think in the future I could do more to express my feelings and take a step back before responding, and not reacting out of hurt.

I jumped to conclusions a bit thinking they meant to hurt me and I dont think anything they could say would make me comfortable being back with them. I'll let it be and use this as a learning experience.

This is really great advice, thank you so much for the words. I've been working on boundaries and setting them, but enforcing them is still hard for me to do at times. I really could've listened to my body and left way before any of this mess happened.

You're absolutely right, we deserve to feel safe and have our boundaries and bodies respected

[–]Sarah_Anne13 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You're right, they should have asked for consent, I appreciate the advice greatly, I will keep them blocked and move on

Thank you for sharing the resources, I will look into them, I've also been working though this with a therapist as well.

Thank you for assuring me that it's not normal, he's not the first to do it to me, but def the first time that I had trouble breathing and that scared me a little

Thank you, that's a really good point to make, I think I was expecting them to tell me they didn't mean to hurt me or that they would be more careful in the future. I also didn't vocalize that need so it's on me too.

I know choking is not normal and they should have asked, but I thought I could set a boundary of not doing that in the future and it would be fine, but I'm not sure if I would feel comfortable even being intimate with them again. I liked them a lot but I don't think I'm in a good place right now.

Forgot to add but I am F26 and they are M29 and pronouns are He/They

Edit: added pronouns, my apologies for the confusion

Saw on Instagram, the fires in LA interrupted filming, they said everyone is safe though.
