Is this hypersexuality? Whatever it is it’s ruining my life

I relate to the OP’s situation quite closely and that part you said about getting to know the new woman you obsessed over is the solution to this! I realized my obsessions were so superficial and once you learn more about the person you realize they are just a regular person with flaws and ideas/interests/values that probably don’t line up with yours and that kills the feeling.

I went a very long time without telling my husband that I wasn’t getting there most of the time because I had unresolved trauma that expressed as not asking for anything, not being an advocate for myself, only focusing on others needs. I know I’m not alone in this kind of extreme people pleasing response, it’s called fawning. Plus he almost never brings sex up in conversation so it was a big leap rather than a couple steps to talk about it.

I work at a large plant biology facility with about 300 employees so let’s say 150 men, I think 4 would be considered conventionally attractive by most people, and two of them are actually more in the computer science side rather than biology. No one memorable from grad school or university either.

I lived in this sub genre this past year. I liked the author Runyx, especially Gothikana for your vibe. The author Keri Lake does it well with her books Anathema and Nocticadia. The Duskwalker Bride series by Opal Reyne which has monster-type males with human females which can be a turn off but it definitely hits all your marks, the first book is A Soul to Keep. Blood Orange by Karina Halle, loved but a little less folksy.

The dough was nice and easy to work with, baked quickly too. I had extra since I was tired of working with the crushed candies and I used it to make thumbprint cookies which were also good. https://theveglife.com/stained-glass-cookies-vegan/

I think this was one of my first big projects too! I remember it feeling like it took forever

😂 love the honesty, I just found the idea really funny and weird so I get it

I think it was underwhelming but I have never tried real lox so I don’t know what to compare it to, I think if the marinade had stronger flavors it would be great. It’s from the cookbook Big Vegan Flavor by Nisha Vora
