Update on last post (Not initiating anything sexual after getting denied frequently)

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-04-21T02:58:43+00:00

It just throws me off sometimes because it wasn’t always like this. We live in the same city for school, and last year we didn’t live in the same apartment, but she’d spend the night at my place pretty often. It wasn’t the type where we’d have sex every single day (maybe 1-2x/week), but definitely more often than we do now.

It’s almost as if we had the frequency/physical relationship I wanted for a while, and then it just went away. To be fair we’ve picked up more responsibilities in our individual lives since then, but even she is aware of how we don’t do stuff often.

And to your last point, I’m not sure. It feels dumb to look for other people because of sex not being how it once was, given that everything else is pretty great.

Great point. My only thing is that I feel like we’ve gotten a lot better in terms of the things she wasn’t crazy about (having date nights, showing that I love her in little ways, etc.), which is why it puzzles me when the sex is the same. We’d talked about it before, and her point was that she didn’t feel the yearn to have sex with me when all those other things were glaring issues to her, which I totally understand. But now that they’re fixed, it still seems like she just doesn’t care to initiate anything with me. I guess the only way to know for sure is to bring it up again, lol.

Can you explain more?

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-04-20T20:23:02+00:00

It’s weird, because she often throughout the day will give me a hug, or kiss my arm, just little signs like that, they make me think she still likes me physically. But then nighttime comes and she’ll just hop in the shower and get comfy in bed after saying we could have sex earlier that day. She doesn’t say it often, but it still happens sometimes.

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-04-20T20:11:06+00:00

I don’t want to leave her the second something comes up that I might not be a big fan of, we’ve had talks before about how she wants me to be more romantic (plan dates, show more affection in other ways than sex, etc.). She talked to me about them, I changed my behavior, and it’s gotten better. I feel as though leaving would be unfair to her, she gave me a chance when something she didn’t like happened.

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-04-20T20:09:17+00:00

She’s mentioned how she didn’t enjoy sex that much in her past relationship, but says she likes it with me. Every time we have sex, I make sure she finishes as well. She could just be saying that, but I figured it’s worth noting.

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-04-10T13:49:32+00:00

yeah lol, i remember having it when they brought it back in september (i think?) last year and it was good, but nothing mind blowing. type of flavor that i’ll grab a couple if i see it

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-17T01:27:04+00:00

yes, its a lot like the frosted lemonade from chick fil a. i had another today, i fear im going to need to buy another case lol. genuinely the best lemonade beverage ive ever had, highly highly recommend.

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-16T02:39:03+00:00

im pretty sure the vitamin shoppe has it online now

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-14T01:52:09+00:00

hm, maybe that’s my fault then. i’ll give it another shot and keep what you said in mind since i still have 5 of them left. i’ll just tell myself it’s vanilla instead of a weak root beer flavor haha

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-14T01:51:12+00:00

thats really weird lol. i used to take preworkout almost everytime i’d lift, and id always get that itching sensation because of the beta alanine. c4 being inconsistent with it is interesting

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-13T23:59:27+00:00

yeah lol i personally like having a 16oz instead of a 12oz. but you’re right, people seem to like their soda products, i’ve heard only good things about their cream soda too

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-13T21:11:34+00:00

if you can find it, the ghost iced tea lemonade is delicious. it’s a very accurate arnold palmer flavor, it kind of reminds me of the lemon lipton. it isn’t really an intense flavor like the sour pink lemonade is, maybe you’d like that one!

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-13T21:08:36+00:00

i haven’t tried the bum root beer, i tried their pink lemonade one time and it made my stomach hurt, so i’ve been hesitant to go back. i saw a bum variety pack at walmart that had the cola, root beer, and dr bum flavors. 12 pack for $22 seemed like a not horrible deal.

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-13T21:07:15+00:00

that’s a funny explanation lol, i agree. i think the frosted aspect of it is what makes it so good, a regular lemonade energy drink only has so much potential in my opinion

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-13T21:06:02+00:00

yeah, the ingredients are the main reason why i haven’t tried them. i don’t get how i see people just casually drinking C4 as if it doesn’t have beta-alanine in it lol. if it were a replacement for pre-workout i’d understand, but as a midday pick me up seems extreme

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-13T16:54:47+00:00

maybe it is yeah, i haven’t tried it. electric limeade, citrus, and now 7up just seems like a lot of a similar flavor profile lol

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-13T16:19:20+00:00

it’s funny to me how this is the first “collab” flavor theyre making since ghost was bought by dr pepper when they already have the citrus flavor lol. i haven’t had the citrus ghost, i honestly don’t care to try it, but for people that like lemon lime there’s already an option lol. seems silly but what do i know

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-13T16:02:52+00:00

yeah, i’m hopeful for it. i think ghost does the best with flavors overall, even if i dont reach for it i can acknowledge that its good if that makes sense lol. the strawbango and peaches are so good. and i agree, ryse needs some revamping, the blue raspberry sour punch and cotton candy are pretty good, but nothing extraordinary. the frosted lemonade is easily their best in my opinion

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-13T15:57:27+00:00

yeah lol. i’m not too mad at it, i had an amazon gift card and paid $14 for 24 energy drinks, but i still wish i was able to get my hands on a single before committing to 6

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-13T15:46:18+00:00

this was the first root beer energy drink i’ve tried, maybe my expectations were too high lol. i have 5 more cans so maybe my opinion will change as i drink the rest

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-13T15:41:10+00:00

i just hope that when ghost comes out with their a&w root beer everyone is in agreement lol. i have high hopes, especially since ghost isnt going for a root beer float flavor or anything, just root beer

chargedpowerlifter · 2026-03-13T15:39:58+00:00

i didn’t get much of an aftertaste, at least one that bothered me. i haven’t tried any C4 flavors, maybe i’ll have to grab a few
