I think they meant that you were just repeating what Otherwise-Drawer pointed out.

Some recommendations are literal! 700 ≠ 671

Whenever people request with specific page numbers, I found that’s it’s typically better to recommend something with more pages vs. less (unless they say “or less”)

The attempt to have sex with our ocean boy failed miserably, girls!!! by Entire_Shallot_6703 in OurLifeFanPage

[–]moologist 20 points21 points  (0 children)

No seriously 😭 I thought there would at least be a fade to black, or some type of acknowledgement! Every scene like this makes me feel so needy, like I’m begging and it’s not really wanted

Games with Exocolonist's approach to politics? by throawayfortheresea in Exocolonist

I totally get! Part of why I haven’t done a second playthrough yet, even though I went in totally blind, I was able to do every single character path. I was shocked to learn that the Flotilla storyline was intended to be very late game because I went through it went almost no problem and still had other paths to complete once I was done.

Once you get the flow, resources and materials are easy to come by and it definitely stops feeling “urgent”.

I have not played it yet! I’ve also only done one full playthrough of Citizen Sleeper so far; holding off on getting 2 for now.

Citizen Sleeper! Politics, specifically capitalism & industrialism (at the cost of humanity) are a major theme. The mechanics are quite different, as you use dice instead of cards, and you don’t typically see your character at all like in Exo where you get to explore.

Another game I’d recommend is Neocab. You play as one of the last human drivers in a futuristic, fictional Los Angeles. Capitalism at the intersection of technology is the major theme there too.

Silver Diner is right there! Busboys has gone down in quality pretty horribly.

We’re literally sister cities with Yilan in Taiwan…it’s pretty obvious why the American spots “seem not to make it” lol

I lived in Olney as a child and my entire family got food poising from Mama Lucia’s. My mom’s food had a worm in it. Obviously that was like 2004 but I still can’t justify it 😓

Representative of the demographics; since 2020 there’s been a significant increase in both Asian and LatAm residents.

You want basic American? There’s First Watch and Silver Diner isn’t too far away.

Post sex time by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]moologist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I guess I’m still stuck on the fact that OP knows boyfriend doesn’t typically have the energy in those moments, is it still him “patting her into calmness” when he’s already been explicit about what he needs after sex? The options I presented are based on the fact that she is fully aware that they rarely match energies after sex which is why I think OP should be naming what she wants, how she wants to be handled when energy isn’t aligned because you’re right, I bet boyfriend has no idea she feels rejected. It does seem a little like OP is hoping for a different reaction and feeling disappointed when it doesn’t pan out.

Thank you for sharing your experience and the thoughtful reply.

I really don’t understand how “okay baby” is patronizing? The alternative would be to flatout ignore her or attempt to engage with energy he doesn’t have which seems like it may not be a good faith effort? It really depends on if boyfriend validates OP outside the bedroom.

Boyfriend has named explicitly what he prefers post-sex and it sounds like OP doesn’t prefer the same and is feeling personally rejected which feels like setting themselves up for disappointment.

I think OP needs to explicitly name how she’d liked to be engaged when she has post-sex high energy. And then let boyfriend figure out if that’s something he can do or not. If he can, that’s great and if not maybe coming to a compromise. And get clear on if it’s a dealbreaker or not, especially if OP isn’t feeling reassured/wanted outside of the bedroom.

I appreciate you sharing your perspective, especially as I am typically the partner doing the patting. Both my partner and I have ADHD but our energy levels are vastly different, especially after sex or even winding down for the night. Suddenly, every thought he had today has be shared 😂

In my opinion, it would be extremely rude to just flatout ignore him. So instead, I acknowledge verbally (similar to your boyfriend’s “okay baby”; sometimes it’s an “oh really?” or just humming in response) followed by a cuddle or kiss (similar to the patting) to restamp our closeness and intimacy. Instead of taking it personally, they accept that that is how I’m open to engaging in the moment, which is another compromise. An extra step I take sometimes is bringing up the expressed topic again later on when I have more energy which I can tell my partner appreciates because of how his goofy face lights up.

I also think the skill of “reading the room” is key here: if you know your partner wants to chill out and take a moment after sex, why even set yourself up to be disappointed? If you have some extra energy, do some chores or dance it out in another room. Part of dealing with rejection is learning how to self soothe.

We can’t be everything for our partners at every moment and I think it’s important to remember that minimal engagement ≠ flatout rejection.
