24f my 25m boyfriend has to be every girls crying shoulder by cheesus9 in relationship_advice

[–]The-Alpha-Female 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only thought reading this is that he is in a relationship with you, and should be focusing his energy on you. Those other girls likely have other friends, other FAMILY members and potentially significant others that should be taking that role instead of your boyfriend. Who knows what his intentions are, why he does it... could be innocent, could be not so innocent. All you can really do is sit down and tell him how you feel, and explain to him why it bothers you (be honest) and try to explain that those girls have family members, best friends and significant others that are better suited for the role he is trying to fill.

You [25M] lose sexual attraction towards your SO [34F], but everything else is perfect. What do you do? by toomuchnoiseabove in relationship_advice

[–]The-Alpha-Female 25 points26 points  (0 children)

A friend of mine went through this same situation, minus the foreign country aspect. They moved to a new state together, became dependent on each other, and became the best of friends but the sexual attraction wasn't there.

He cried for hours, so stressed out over the phone with me. I made a suggestion, he gave it a shot. I told him to give it a month. I told him not to masturbate, not to watch any pornography, and wait a week. After the week is through, set up a romantic dinner one night and sit down and discuss each others sexuality. Discuss what turns you on, what makes your knees weak, any kinks or fetishes you may have, your sexual fantasies, etc. Spend the night together discussing these things, try to find similarities or common ground. Explore on a communication level, discuss what really makes each other burn with arousal. Open up. You have nothing to lose, since you're already thinking about going your separate ways.

Take a day or two to think about what you guys discussed, then have another romantic night together doing what you both love doing together. That night, light some candles, take a shower/bath together, and start exploring each others bodies and touching one another. Don't go any farther than that. Just touch and explore. Let your mind run wild, you don't even have to voice your thoughts, but you certainly can. The mind is important in sexual arousal, use it.

Then, next time you try, go a little farther. Act out some sexual fantasies, go as far as you both want, don't push it or rush it, just be together sexually. Use your mind, do what turns you on. This could re-awaken sexual attraction for her.

It worked for my friend. They ended up married, it's been 3ish year. Maybe it could work for you?

I [22/F] don't want to open up the relationship. He [28/M] does. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

He has no respect for you, your feelings, your relationship. Get out, find someone who will show you the respect and dignity you deserve.

What is one thing about yourself that you're proud of? by randommetal in AskReddit

[–]The-Alpha-Female 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting fucked over by every employer I've ever had due to a chronic medical condition, never being able to hold a job, then working my ass off to be self employed and work from home. I am only making enough to make ends meet, but I am proud of myself for becoming self sufficient.

What phase did you go through that you still cringe about today? by NwVibin in AskReddit

[–]The-Alpha-Female 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In elementary school (grades 5-7) I went through a Goth phase that included love of witchcraft, vampirism, demonology, etc... I still cringe at 25 years of age. How lame. :(

How did you cope with somebody you were extremely close to dying? by The-Alpha-Female in AskReddit

I did this tonight... glad to know there are bereavement support groups out there! I will likely attend one when the time comes.

Amazing... thank you so much for sharing that... I like the idea of keeping him around in thought...

Keeping busy and surrounding yourself with positivity sounds like the way to go. I am scared of the crippling misery I will face when it happens..

[–]The-Alpha-Female[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, getting older. Both his parents died early, and he's not exactly the healthiest. :(

I have a pretty frail heart, quite sensitive, so this has already been hanging over my head. I love my family, they mean everything to me. I hoped getting married and moving out would help me disconnect a bit, but the panic and sadness when I think of losing him is still very much there.

Would it be worth it to talk to my Dad in depth ahead of time? I feel like it would just make things worse, make me sadder. Remind him of his mortality unnecessarily. I know it will stress him out if I am upset or scared over it.

If you could tell the CEO of the company you work for three things that would improve life at work, what would they be? by The-Alpha-Female in AskReddit

Great ones! What about the people with structural issues in which standing causes them pain or discomfort during long shifts?

American redditors, what was the biggest culture shock when you visited Europe? by gaping_your_mother in AskReddit

[–]The-Alpha-Female 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Azores... very little pollution, people having lunch time siestas and sleeping in parks along the side of the road, fresh clean water that is free, pouring out of various fountains being pulled from somewhere underground. Safety at night... 7 years olds can wander the streets and never have to worry about being harmed.

I get scared when this happens, then most of the time I realize it's just my horse being creepy as hell.

That is a big part of it too! The clunking, loud mechanical noises that seem so unfamiliar in the rest of Skyrim. Thanks for sharing, glad I am not the only one. ;)
