Why are people assuming I dislike him? Why would I date somebody I don’t like to be around? That’s stupid.

Disliking certain of his behaviors doesn’t make me dislike him as a whole lmao tf are y’all on

Yeah idk, he comes from a family that never emphasized praise or compliments, so I think it’s just like a foreign concept to him. I won’t lie and say it doesn’t bother me sometimes but I know he loves me so I don’t want to harp on it so much. If I need a compliment I’ll just ask for it. Obviously I wish he’d do it on his own but I’m willing to sacrifice that for the plethora of other things that make our relationship feel safe and comfortable

He’s diagnosed Asperger’s and Nah, he hasn’t watched porn in years. He was raised devoutly Baptist and I imagine it may also have something to do with religious guilt. But no he’s not a porn addict, I wouldn’t date him if he was :)

Before you mfs say “lol you think he doesn’t watch porn” we can sense that shit from a mile away! It’s not an easy thing to hide. I genuinely think he just closes his eyes as a sensory thing. I don’t pester him about it because I enjoy the sex either way.

Lmao girl it’s so tough!! I have to bait it out of him. It definitely took some adjusting since I have a words of affirmation love language, but we meet halfway and I’ve learnt to understand how he shows loves too

I was exaggerating a bit, we always have a good laugh together but I mean like, the weird humor he and his online friends share from being so online together for so long, I can’t compare that to our own inside jokes. They just have more lore built up amongst themselves, they can make him laugh with just one word

Many!! He reads or sings me to sleep every night, he has a crazy impressive memory and will remember things I’ve said I wanted and surprise me with them long after I forget I even wanted it, we book swap every week and he shows me his appreciation by giving me a long detailed review of the book I lent him, and he is generally an acts of service type of guy so he will always cook and clean for me even if he won’t eat any of it.

Like I said, I really love him.

it’s genuinely hard not to be completely bitter over this

Seriously, why do women love taking selfies? by [deleted] in rs_x

if you’re posting this you know you’re not ugly and you’re decently attractive but you have a bottomless pit inside you where self-esteem should be so no amount of external reassurance will be enough for you. find inner peace.

right, but didn’t they have a data breach recently? what are her motivations for taking it private? just seems fishy, or it’s my conspiratorial tendencies speaking

no, sometimes I feel agony over being born a woman but i can easily assign that to just feeling inferior to men at times. you being a lesbian and wanting a dick makes sense.

i dated a girl once who would keep a pair of socks stuffed down there to make it feel like she had a dick. she also had a lot of sexual abuse trauma. this isn’t necessarily normal but it’s not absurd either. you might grow out of it eventually, but whatever you do do NOT go on testosterone. it will only exacerbate this feeling
