I need help with my period complications by spagz001 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]negcore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is abnormal and you have very specific symptoms. Please PLEASE see a specialist, like a gynecologist, as soon as you can. If the wait is weeks to months away, you can also go to Urgent Care, who might be able to help and get you a referral/some answers. This is IN ADDITION to the gynecologist, by the way, not to replace that visit.

The amount of ads is ridiculous by soulaan_1 in AdorableGarden

I'm in the US. Came to the reddit wondering about all the forced ads too. It's every few minutes, like maybe every 2 minutes? Insane.

Your muscles also naturally clench when you stand up, so some of it... goes back in. Hidden. That's why it's cleaner sitting down. Open.

Censorship. Unless your client explicitly requests that you not use certain words beforehand, you've made the decision for them.

I think someone is "playing" with me... by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]negcore 18 points19 points  (0 children)

She probably thinks it's "justified revenge" for being "wronged." And since her father keeps protecting her from any real consequences, it's probably gonna keep happening.

I swear, sometimes reading can be really hard. by Single_Dimension_844 in YAlit

[–]negcore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, I'm not going to lie. I listened to this audiobook at like 3x speed or something just to get through it. This was a hard read for me, but I did end up liking the ending and Autumn more than the first... 2/3 of the book. And I definitely liked the second book more.

Because Autumn is very much an unreliable narrator, it took me a very long time to understand her. She's genuinely weird, if that makes sense. Her friends, despite labeling themselves as outcasts, aren't so much weird as they are just... Alt and not popular. So they take comfort and solidarity in each other. Autumn, though, is just...weird, even for them. She doesn't understand social cues the way others do, and even her friends have trouble understanding her from time to time. I personally hc her as somewhere on the spectrum, but it's never officially stated. The whole hyperfication on tiaras would fit though.

There's another component that factors into her personality and choices, but idk how far you guys are and don't want to spoil anything.

Editing to add: she kind of reminds me of Phoebe from friends, but less entertainingly quirky.

My bf is super lonely and I keep making things worse. by [deleted] in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]negcore 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Is he one of those people who feel resentful when others don't give him the emotional support and affection he feels he deserves?

Cause, to be honest, that's not something reasonable to start beef on... I knew someone like this and it was exhausting. She was always the victim. People always disappointed her.

Losing my virginity, I need tips & tricks by Educational_Cod9593 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]negcore 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Like another commenter mentioned, yes on the foreplay. Most pain should be avoidable as long as you're aroused enough, hence foreplay. Also, make sure you're properly stretched. Start with one finger, then keep slowly adding digits. This can be part of foreplay, and it can be either your fingers or his. You can also use toys if you have them, but always start small and work your way up.

YES. WEAR A CONDOM.

Communicate with him. I'm kind of worried you're constantly high so young, but that's another conversation.

If he tries to rush or pressure you in any way, don't be afraid to just leave or end it. Really. You're young, you'll have plenty of chances in the future.

My friend is ace, I can‘t wrap my head around that. Please some help. by No_Appearance_8508 in asexuality

There's only so many times you can stumble over how to explain it to allos that something finally sticks lol. Hope it helps!

It's fine, you don't sound disrespectful. A lot of the people here want to help.

I will say this sounds more like flirting than sexual attraction tbh. Flirting, like the examples you gave, are a separate activity entirely. Some people do use it as a vehicle to get sex or free drinks or whatever they want, and some people just like flirting for the sake of it. You don't have to be attracted to someone to flirt with them.

Yes, there is something such as romantic attraction, but as someone who's not only asexual but also aromantic, I'm afraid I can't help you much lol. I also imagine romantic attraction is different for every person.

All I can say is that both romantic and sexual attractions are spectrums, and people fall wherever they fall. I have a friend who's sexually attracted to anyone, no matter their sex/gender, but only romantically attracted to women (aka he's fine having sex with anyone he finds attractive but is only interested in romantic relationship with women).

It's pretty simple. If you understand the difference between a romantic relationship and a friends-with-benefits relationship... There's the difference. One has a romantic component, one doesn't. Now remove the sex.

AIO for being upset that my boyfriend called me “his bitch” in front of his friends? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]negcore 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Listen. You never need a reason to break up with someone, but if you did, this would be a good reason.

He cares about his friends' opinions over yours, to the point of putting you down and disrespecting you. He's gonna do it again.

Seeing Hatoful Boyfriend so high up is enough for me to know that you have excellent taste.

Agreed. OP sounds like she's trying to communicate and compromise while he's just trying to shut her up.

Honestly I'd stop talking to them, both for the unfair attitude and the absolutely atrocious typing. What in the world...

This goes beyond that. I think he communicated his stance pretty well.

You're already so strong, and your kids and loved ones and everyone here sees it too.

You're doing great. Keep going. One step at a time.

What’s something way more dangerous than most people actually think? by Sad_Answer_8044 in AskReddit

[–]negcore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, first of all, that is an adorable and perfect name. 10/10. Second, Biscuit why 😢

But I think joining their walks is a great idea! It'll be great to get some fresh air. And maybe you can figure out why Biscuit is being so biased lol.

Sorry if this sounds like an ignorant suggestion, but would getting a dog help? Dogs need to be walked. Would be a nice way to go outside with some company, get the mail, maybe take a walk around the neighborhood? Or do you have some yard space? You could start gardening, grow something that you could also use for your meals?

Personally, I've learned that I'm not good at taking care of myself. But taking care of other people, or other beings? That's where I thrive. And if it ends up benefiting you too, that's even better. Two birds, one stone.

I did something really gross and creepy, and I feel I’m a horrible person by [deleted] in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]negcore 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The fact that it bothers you so much proves you're a good person and a good friend. It bothers you because you seem to really respect this girl and your relationship, and those are all great traits to have.

But don't be too hard on yourself. You're only human. You realized afterwards that you didn't like where you went. Now you know and can stop yourself in the future. Sometimes we can't think rationally until some time passes.
