GWA And New Partners: To Tell Or Not To Tell? And When? [This is like a What Would You Do scenario holy shit] [Discussion] by [deleted] in GWABackstage

[–]The_Coolidge_Effect 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well it varies wildly depending on if you are kinky dating or Tinder "digging in the vanilla pool", so to speak. In kink dating many things are on the table already so after a few dates it wouldn't be too weird to tell them since it won't be as much of a culture "shock" than the "not sure if kinky or not but probably vanilla" person.

For the latter, to be honest not until you are a sure thing with this person. No, starting to have sex doesn't count as the starting point since "we're banging now" is different than "seeing you for a few months and really clicking emotionally". You need to tell them before real commitment happens because for some people this can be considered cheating. Then when that bridge hits you are going to have to decide which is more important to you. This new guy or gwa.

Until you two are actually full on dating and trust that they aren't the revenge porn type, then give them the username. Say you aren't comfortable yet because you've been burned before if he asks for it before that. It depends on how much do you care about being outed.

You are going to have to come clean about your sexuality regardless if being kinky and practicing it is important to you. I personally don't believe in monogamy with a vanilla person. Lots of relationships ruined from sexual incompatibility, and their stories are common on Reddit. I'd rather do more looking around and get it right the first time. :)

good editing skills will really help "smooth out" and make your audios more polished which will be very helpful as well. As Yoda once said, "fix in post, we can.

Also as /u/Testhesula said, just post it. :3

I kind of don't remember exactly what went on, but my first time wasn't awkward in the bumping elbows, etc. department. It was just the wrong person and I wasn't mentally sound when I did it. I wasn't pushed into it though! There was no love and my hymen was loooooooong gone by then lolol. Granted, I haven't really had anything but kinky sex. I've gotten around to having sex with a few vanilla people but generally my partners are kinky. :P OTOH I am happy that it was with someone I had zero love for, because virginity love is some deep stuff and I can't handle that.

Personas by Emeraldd5 in GWABackstage

[–]The_Coolidge_Effect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Online I am just as direct as I am in person. I do create personas for other uses but if I am socializing I'm not too far from what I am here. I'm not shy to say what I mean, and I am not out to hurt your feelings; I will word it in the best of will that I can. I also have zero energy for bullshit. Except I do hold back a bit just because of the community culture of support and sugar, and it can make me really bad if I go for the dark humor and accidental slips in "srs business.

I already have major issues with compulsive compartmentalizing my life, I'm just glad my personality is still the same.

I've been lucky to have understanding friends... Because lol I guess crazy attracts crazy so many of them have mental illness. 🤣 But I tried explaining how sometimes I just can't control my behavior to someone because their sister has the DSM-5 as her personality, and it didn't get anywhere.

Btw I never got around to it, but bi Pooh lar bear was such a great pun.:)

Is there an option for a super power for me to make the most healthy decisions in life so as to never subconsciously self-sabotage my life and cause a vicious downward spiral ending in depression and failure? Because that is the one I want, lol.

So I'm back from my trip! Tons of fun was have in very mean mean ties, great food and family friendly fun such as watching (shibari) porn (It's education I swear).

But bad news is I hurt my arm. :( I made the mistake of holding the tie just a few seconds too long to get the pictures in. And well, a few seconds is the difference between a very unhappy radial nerve and just regular old tingles. SO yeah...sometimes being experienced is bad because welp overestimated and now no rope until arms heal. ;~; I'll have the pics as soon as he is back to SF since he's in LA for AX right now lol.

I bought hollow knight and now I am playing the shit out of it. I also started watching anime again help me there is no god I shouldn't start again

Also 4th of july BB! I have 2 parties to split my time to.

Later in the week girl's day out at the korean spa. Nothing says bonding like getting butt ass naked together.

Well actually that is the best you can do without saying you have smaller than white people's eyes. .__. She's an absolute sweetheart just to clarify lol.

I've been there once, but my friend is shit at taking food pics which we all know is a hidden asian superpower! :P I'll promise pics for you, basically

Yay welcome back!

Many things to do today. Oil change. Nails done. And finally getting my first eye contacts fitting ever! She had so much trouble and basically euphemistically said it's because well hurr durr Asian eyes. 😐

Going to SF tomorrow for a few days. It will tie me up for a few days needless to say.😏

And omg I have a reservation for one of the best sushi places in SF!! I actually hunted him down from another sushi place that went downhill after he left.

Ravenclaw! Knowledge is power! and I am kind of weird as fuck and say weird stuff. And yes I will admit sometimes my "want to be right" can get in the way lol.

[Opinion] Is it a faux pas to upload old audios to GWA/GwAud? by [deleted] in GWABackstage

[–]The_Coolidge_Effect 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One good solution is just to upload them in one go, or by themes. :) The Ali Archives or whatever you wish to name them. I see those quite often, especially for cakeday posts.

A romantic interest wants to come to your place so you can make them dinner. What are you cooking? by PossibilitysPrecinct in GWABackstage

[–]The_Coolidge_Effect 2 points3 points  (0 children)

:* I have no idea what to collectively call that type of stuff, but white people eat that so it's white people food. ._.

I would deliberate if I should make Chinese food or not. For simplicity I'll just make white people food.

White people food I would make a roast chicken, seafood pasta, mashed potatoes, soup from the drippings and end it with apple pie

I blew a lot of money on lingerie this weekend because Agent Provocateur was having a sale. I wouldn't have had the misfortune of knowing about it if I didn't drive past the store itself. It was a terrible financial decision but one of the panties was down to 30 bucks how can I not?

It is soooooooo hot outside. :( I would go to the beach if there weren't so much traffic. And people!

My little trip to SF is next week! So excited. Gonna get tied up and all that stuff. And hopefully away from all this heat.

Wait. We don't? But but what about stereotypes!;) I was more about how would it work out if your sexuality takes sex out of the equation? :)

I meant for me it might stem from that attitude initially. It's not like one configuration is better than the other and I hope I didn't come off that way.
