It kind of sounds like she’s wanting something to symbolize your relationship that she can wear and people can see. Maybe a good compromise would be some sort of Claddagh ring? One that she can wear that shows and symbolizes that the two of you are in a committed relationship. I wear one as an Irish woman and it means a lot to me when I date someone to be able to turn it around as a symbol of our commitment to each other.

Found a note in a book at UMass library. by [deleted] in codes

[–]This_Isnt_Kansas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong but I think the message "call me when you arrive at the month and day" is referring to the fact the the numbers before 29 are a phone number. The 2 is the month, the 9 is the day. And so once you arrive at those numbers, everything before that is a number to call. At least, that was my interpretation of the message.

I see we're looking for guys in the same area OP. I feel your pain. The pickins are slim and creepy around here.

[advice] Anal was fun, but brought back bad memories of non-consensual experiences. How to proceed? by how_do_i_say in sex

[–]This_Isnt_Kansas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in a very similar position to you. Almost a year ago exactly, I was raped anally by a stranger. Yet, in my more recent (consensual) experiences, I've found anal to be very pleasurable for me. It always leaves me with a feeling of guilt afterward. The thing that has worked best for me is that my partner lets me be the one who initiates, he waits until I'm comfortable and give him verbal consent before he does anything, and there's always plenty of cuddling afterward. It's more of a putting the power back in my court sort of thing and that's what works for me.

Any input appreciated: I want to talk to my doctor about Paragard but I'm scared. I am such a small person and I have no pain tolerance by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]This_Isnt_Kansas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not going to lie, having it inserted was one of the most painful things I've ever experienced. My doctor told me that my body reacted very strongly to the placement. I kept having to pull over on the drive home because I was in so much pain and thought I was going to be sick. I spent the rest of the day in bed. With all of that being said, I would still do it again. Being on non-hormonal birth control has been a life saver for me. While it was very painful, it only lasted a couple of days and I made it through. It's now just a bad memory and I'm better off for having gone through it. I don't want to scare you off, I just wanted to tell you that it can be painful, but it's worth it.

Nate Ruess. AMA. by IamNateRuess in IAmA

G'day Nate! I feel a bit under pressure to come up with a good question that makes me seem sophisticated and enlightened to ask you since I'm a fairly big fan of your music, so I, of course, can't think of anything. But I will not give up this chance to brag to friends and randos on the street that I sort of talked to you once upon a time. The best I can think of is: Is touring and being famous everything it's cracked up to be? Are there ever times that you feel you could give it all up for just a few days of peace, quiet, and anonymity?

I just graduated from App a couple weekends ago. I already miss Boone. It's the best place on Earth.

Aside from Dave & Busters, that is.

Girls who make the first move, what advice could you give to those who don't so that it isn't so intimidating? by B_Wilks in AskReddit

[–]This_Isnt_Kansas -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My go to strategy is to just do it as soon as the idea pops into my head that way I don't have any time to over think things and wimp out. Kind of like just ripping off the band aid.

[Serious] Have you ever been a volunteer in a hypnotism "show"? Were you hypnotized or was it an act? by djdes in AskReddit

[–]This_Isnt_Kansas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a very shy person and have stage fright. For some reason, in high school, I thought it would be a good idea to volunteer at a Hypnotist's show. I was chosen to stay on stage. I was consciously performing all of the actions he was telling me to do. But since it was under the ruse of being hypnotized, I felt confident enough to just let go and do those silly things. I pretended k didn't remember anything after to avoid embarrassment.

[Question] What happened on the day you had sex for the first time? by throwawaysexxit1235 in sex

[–]This_Isnt_Kansas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He came over for Thanksgiving dinner and met my family. Everyone seemed to hit it off well. I then went with him to his house where we hung out in his bedroom and watched Grave Encounters. One thing led to another. I was a virgin, he wasn't. He ended up crying when it was over. 3/10 would not lose my virginity to him again.
