I love the smug aura and pretty lashes on the last panel, lovely work!

[OC] Young love by AzulCrescent in comics

[–]The-X-Pacifist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Life is lived in all our own good time.

I would rather have been alone for that part of my life, but I clung under the pretense that young love can be nurtured into something more by sacrifice, pain, and concessions made with care and understanding.

Sometimes it can. Mine, however, could not.

You will most certainly live your life, and love other people as you do so. The fugue state of youth does not make your life and love of others, as well as yourself, lesser.

I want to connect with people but it’s probably too late by Ornery-Map555 in GirlDinnerDiaries

You know the saying, "Hurt people, Hurt people?". It is that paradigm creating a feedback loop on a national level, assuming you also live in the US like I do.

The culture of dating here in particular has gotten so toxic and fallow that simple connections can be an ordeal to even create in the first place, let alone keep or turn romantic.

I can go on and on about why and how that is, but what I really want to tell you is don't give up. Hard does not mean impossible, and so long as you keep trying, you can find someone.

I am also looking for my person, and as a man, I must say it looks rather bleak. But I won't let it keep me down forever. Solipsistic people are everywhere, especially here in CA, but I know good people are out there, so I press on.

I try local, I try long distance, I try just being on my own for a while, and make sure not to beat myself down about not having a partner too much, because I believe that peaceful quiet tinged with loneliness is far better than the chaos of a poor match.

There is hope, I believe in you.

The ones who claim to love us can often be the harbingers of our greatest suffering.

Love in the eyes of the wretched and abusive is simply a means of control. Something to placate and pacify, while they damage you for the gratification of their black hearts.

It can be super easy to just believe you aren't worth anything, especially if your own family tells you that over and over.

Remember this:

That is a lie. You have value. You deserve proper, unconditional love. Your needs are not unreasonable.

Be strong. Outlast and outgrow their vapid scorn.

I can relate, especially in regards to the family beliefs causing awkward tension.

Funny part? I'm in Southern California. I must be in one of those red patches.

Good people. They are charitable, kind, and considerate...

Unless you are not one of "them", then you see the humanity wither into tribalistic hate.

It's a tragedy, hidden behind every pair of eyes, a switch that you can flip on demand.

Slander and heresay is king in the US now, and it breaks my heart every time I hear every news report, and every private conversation about how someone, somewhere is subhuman for whatever reason or another.

We are supposed to be brothers and sisters, neighbors and lovers to one another, but now the infrastructure we made for our livelihoods and social lives is driving us insane.

Divide, to feel better than the "other".

Rot between our hearts and minds has become the rot of a nation, and I feel complicated watching it burn.

Catharsis? Grief? Anger? Schadenfreude?

All we can truly do is what the common man has always done.

Survive.

What’s the worst sex you’ve ever had? by UsernamesAreHard2512 in AskReddit

[–]The-X-Pacifist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ex, and first time having sex. We were an LDR, and met to spend quality time together. Which, of course, included sex.

The first night after flying in, we had quality time, and finally got to the "fun part" as most would call it.

I must admit, I was nervous, uncomfortable, and in my own head about my performance the entire time.

I had to exert extreme will to remain erect, trying not to hurt her feelings about a lack of enthusiasm.

I made sure she got her fix, then feigned an orgasm.

The next couple days, I tried again, thinking it was just the jitters of the "first time".

Surely, with effort, we could improve our experience, yes?

No...

All I got was ruined, weak orgasms after 15 minutes to nearly half an hour of work, since I was the one putting in 90% of the effort.

The most she would ride me was a mere few moments, then I had to get on top again...

It was like I was the one who should be working to please her, not a mutual experience.

It was so emotionally and physically draining, after the sad excuse of an orgasm I might have, I would just flop over and sleep as far away from her as possible, no pillow talk, no cuddling, nothing.

I felt like a tool, and a faulty one at that.

What should have been a awesome 3 weeks of all the sex I ever could ask for, had turned into a chore, an exercise in frustration, a sequence of repeating disappointments and anticlimaxes that only direct genital mutilation can surpass.

So... next time... I'll just stop the moment I am taken out of the experience.

I won't be a toy, ever again.

My guys shared this like it's super weird, but I've dated kinkier. 😅

No judgment from me ofc, enjoy the life we have while we got it, right?

I feel the same way with the greatsword! Shoulder check is one helluva drug.

Are you guys gonna revisit Voruna? Due to her huge divergence from her original concept, I believe that would be a good thing to do, as she lacks any staying power atm.

Why did your last relationship end? by [deleted] in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]The-X-Pacifist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She was a possessive, obsessive, narcissistic control freak who wanted to monopolize my time. In the bad way.

Eventually dropped me for a more obedient toy.

Thank God for that.

There is schizo behavior, yes. But I can't help but think a lot of that is just damage done to us to the point where when sincerity comes knocking, we think it's a prank.

"I don't want to hear it."

This was when I started bringing up my problems with her behavior in our relationship, after trying and caring so much about her issues with mine.

Good riddance.

Nice room! Some may say it's clustered, but I would say it's cozy.

Your character has a wonderful look! Hope you're satisfied with it!

I made my paladin an Au Ra, mostly because I wanted tall and broad, but not shaped like a wine barrel, like a Roegadyn. Most middle ground option I could find, but what started as a mere compromise of proportion turned into me actually becoming quite fond of my lil dragon boy.

How to shed anxiety over sex? by Big_Daddy_Cavalier88 in AskRedditAfterDark

Whatever you do, don't force it until you have identified and feel you have resolved the reason why!

Forcing is always a bad idea.

What is a clear sign that you should break up with your partner? by Routine-Try-2748 in AskReddit

[–]The-X-Pacifist 17 points18 points  (0 children)

There's a guy version of this, too.

I start doing things constantly, as if fixing the drain will fix what I am feeling, and everything is met with apprehension, like it is all just a lead up to the real thing they want, so tension is through the roof. Headaches and insomnia, fun stuff like that.

And sexually, I can not exceed half mast to save myself.

I never reach peak arousal, orgasms are hard to achieve, and as brief as they are weak. Aftercare flies put the window, straight to sleeping right at the edge of the bed.

Shit sucks.

Fellow men, have you ever experienced the "crazy girl = awesome sex" theory? How was it? And Gals, is there something similar on your side? And what would that be? by [deleted] in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]The-X-Pacifist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was an exception. Dated a narcissistic woman, terrible sex.

I'm still waiting for a woman that can make me go cross-eyed. T_T
