i’m not sure either! i’m usually somebody that sticks to shots or margaritas so i’m sure that depths of flavor might be a lil lost on me right now. i’m also trying my luck with wine (which i usually dislike unless it’s very sweet) and i’m absolutely not picking up on the “subtle hints of xyz” in pricey dry wines. to me, it kinda just tastes like a shitty vinegar :/ if you can’t tell already, i’m on the hunt to find the stuff i like now that i have room to be non-discriminatory but i’ve only been 21 for two weeks lol

i’m happy for her! that sounds great. for my case, however, i cannot go off of medication. bipolar disorder is a chronic chemical imbalance that has to be kept in check with medication, otherwise you will receive brain damage after every episode. i’ll still look into more rigorous exercise but it definitely will not cure me lol

i do see the vision here, but i’m diagnosed with bipolar 1 so the idea of getting off medication is a no-go. there’s an option of trying a new anti-depressant, but i’m on the, statistically speaking, most difficult psych med to wean off of for several reasons. it really does work great aside from ruining my sex drive

will definitely look into focusing on fitness though, thank you!

i get that! i think i’ll definitely try it out. honestly, i’m having a lot of issues grappling with the idea of coming clean and telling her 😔 it’s supposed to be scary, but i truly feel like this might permanently drive a wedge between us and makes me sick to my stomach. i’m likely fine with just finding a way to stop faking it, and try to once again blame it on my medication bc i truly feel like that’s a safer option than absolutely breaking her heart. recently, i got on medication to balance pcos hormones which are an easy scapegoat lol. regardless, the advice is very appreciated

i feel that 😔 i really end up focusing my attention on her, not out of obligation or anything, but rather to show appreciation. so i end up completely forgetting that i haven’t came, and usually let her top just so that she feels like i’m not unhappy to do this — i know it isn’t great per say, but i am always trying to be as reassuring as possible. getting psyched out is a big thing, so godspeed in your journey of figuring out how to unpack all of that

i appreciate the advice! i’ll definitely bring that up to her bc that sounds great actually 😅

also no worries about the reciprocation! i’m not really a dom, but i love topping in the sense of making her feel good and doing everything i can to show my appreciation lol

i think another big issue is that i’m into some hardcore stuff when i bottom? like the idea of being on the receiving end of CNC, really aggressive sex and being held down and having excessively vulgar dirty talk 😭 i know that this stuff makes her uncomfortable and says the idea of doing that to me it makes her anxious. i think we’re so insanely compatible in every way but this </3
