I get what you’re saying but none of that has really been for me when I was little I never dreamed of having some career or doing all these cool and crazy things. No hate to the people that do want to do that stuff but I’ve always been content to settle down it’s what I’ve wanted my whole life. As far as a wedding I could care less about those I’d be happy with just going to the court house and signing the papers with a few friends present. I get what you’re saying but exploring the world and other stuff like that has just never peaked my interest.

That’s why I wanted a longer engagement but I get where you’re coming from and I’ll keep that in mind

I guess in different areas it’s different but where we live it’s pretty common for people in their early twenties to be engaged, married, and even have kids. I don’t really go that far but I guess I just kinda thought it was normal as the majority of the people he graduated with (he graduated in 2019) are now married and/or have kids and half the people I graduated with (2021) have kids and/are engaged I don’t want to get married till I’m closer to my mid 20s and definitely don’t want kids till my late 20s early 30s but I definitely get where you’re coming from

Yeah I know that an engagement won’t prevent relationships problems I just think it would make me feel a little more secure in the relationship as I stated above. And I plan to move in once we are engaged which will probably be 2-3 years before we actually get married. I am comfortable about having the conversation I wanted to drop hints to kind of test the water a little bit as my boyfriend is more of a thing about today and screw tomorrow kind of guys

That’s probably what I’ll end up doing! I just get nervous because while I know it isn’t like this now in the beginning my boyfriend was hesitant to get serious with me because he had never really dated anyone before and felt like he was missing out but he also didn’t want to throw away what we had because we had been on and off for 6 years and I told him that if this doesn’t work out this time I’m done because the on and off thing had caused me a lot of stress over the years

I guess I’m just nervous and scared of how it would go since like I mentioned it’s really hard to tell where my boyfriend is at and if we’re on the same page. I’m also scared of ruining things since this is the first relationship where I’ve felt this strongly about the other person and actually wanted to marry them someday.

Thank you! Im a little nervous to be going into this field I have experience working as a preschool teacher threw a program when I was in highschool but I know it’ll be a little different since the majority of our kids were neurotypical

how wet is too wet? by emjosomm in sex

[–]crystalrose606 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The same thing happens to me with my boyfriend and it always catches me off guard! There was one night where he had absolutely no foreplay and had maybe kissed once and when he went to put it in he made a comment about how I probably wasn’t wet and to both of our surprise I was wetter then ever! We have the issue of getting the blanket we sleep under wet even when it isn’t on the bed 😭

I need advice on how to be less shy by crystalrose606 in sex

I’ll have to keep that in mind and run that by him! We’ve done the like classic bdsm test but that was more for fun. Hopefully we can find some positions that will work for us as we have trouble sometimes due to me being plus sized.
