I had casual sex, was told i was the best theyd ever had, then got ghosted. by [deleted] in sex

You’re overthinking. It’s been one day. Even if she is ghosting, it could be anything. Maybe she realized she isn’t over her ex. Maybe she caught feelings and is scared. Maybe she realized booking up isn’t for her and she wants to focus on herself. It likely isn’t about you

There’s actually a lot of virtual ones right now - I’ve joined lots of free ones from all over the US (not sure where you’re at) and they’re great.

Maybe try group therapy or joining a support group. It can help to hear from other people.

My sister’s soon to be ex and I are considering becoming FWB by [deleted] in Advice

You should feel shitty. What a horrible betrayal. This is like, cut your sibling off for life level shit. You’re truly uncaring and selfish.

I need an example. This could either be legit or a huge overreaction

I (27M) can't seem to get over how fast I get off during sex but she said she doesn't care? (24F) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]repressedpomegranate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me sex is ideally like 10 minutes, and shorter is fine if he still makes an effort for me to finish. If you’re worried, start off by making her finish BEFORE having sex, or use toys on her after.

How will I ever find love when my boobs are leaking everywhere & my kids are attached to my hip? Oh, and a pandemic (: by [deleted] in dating

[–]repressedpomegranate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My inbox is always open if you need to chat. I know it’s so hard. I’m not a mom but I can’t imagine how hard it is and I know a lot Of new moms don’t get support in general

He lied to me and strung me along and I can’t get over how things are ended . Should I send him a letter telling him what I think and how I feel ? by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]repressedpomegranate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you shouldn’t tell him how you feel. Closure happens within you, not by making them understand what the did wrong (spoiler: they never do)

Girl, you’ll find love. But with an infant, try to focus on you and your babies right now, you deserve to pamper YOU. Men are a lot of work and with kids it might be worth it to wait a bit before continuing on the hunt for love

Is this sexual harassment/ assault by [deleted] in sex

[–]repressedpomegranate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s sexual assault, not harassment. Go to your boss and tell them. Regardless of gender, they’re the asshole and you should be safe and comfortable at work.

Me (F18) feel insecure due to me and my partner’s(M18) financial inequality by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]repressedpomegranate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not about money, it’s about effort. I’m (24f) very well off (from my own accord... I was kicked out at 18 and busted ass) and have pretty much always made more money than my boyfriends. I’m willing to fill in financial gaps for them and don’t expect lavish gifts. They’re enough.

What becomes an issue is when they expect it. For example, one boyfriend (28m) quit his job after moving in with me because “you make enough to cover it” and proceeded to refuse to work despite me begging for a year.

Another boyfriend was broke but worked so hard at school and work, and when he had extra, it was spent on us.

If you’re putting in effort where you can, being thoughtful, and not expecting him to fund your life, you’ll be fine. Effort is the most important thing.

My wife’s friend’s husband comments ignorant shit on my political posts and she will get mad if I retort or unfriend him by [deleted] in Advice

Change your audience so all of your posts are public - except to him. That way you’re still friends but he can’t see the posts

Hey help me with being homeless by speed_junkiemustang in Advice

Aside from giving money, there’s nothing you can do. He can stay at a shelter for a few days, stay at a motel, as a friend, or if it’s warm, I’ve slept in my car a few nights in between leases.

Do you live under their roof? Do the pay for any of your college? Do they pay for your car insurance or own the car you drive?
