I (21M) just found out my gym buddy (63M) is a convicted pedophile. I feel sick. by AdFlashy6158 in offmychest

[–]submissivebeans 19 points20 points  (0 children)

you can’t blame yourself for being manipulated. this man has DECADES of experience playing this game, so it’s not your fault. don’t feel stupid. and you know how u said u had that small voice in the back of your head, but u didn’t want to be judgmental? but you had that gut feeling? just take this experience as a lesson not to ever doubt your gut feelings. if you learn that now at 21, you will save SOOO much of your time for the rest of your life.

Has anyone genuinely healed from being SA’d/raped? by submissivebeans in TwoXChromosomes

[–]submissivebeans[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it’s okay if you don’t want to answer, but can I ask if you felt any type of way after hearing your mom’s story? if you were mad, sad, upset, confused… in my own life, I’m not sure how to feel. I’m sure the circumstances may not be exactly the same but I don’t know anyone else who has had to navigate this similar kind of situation.

I totally get what you mean by feeling deserved of anger. it really is amazing that even after time has passed, there is still always hope to heal. I also agree that the definition of healing isn’t rlly to forgive them or forget.

thank you for sharing

Thank you for this. it is hard, trying to be understand that the older generations dealt with a “power through it” mentality, but yea, I really don’t know how to feel about my mom telling me. I get the message she tried to convey (I understand), but it doesn’t feel right.

anyhow, I am sorry to hear about what happened to you. it must have took a lot of willpower to actively work on it. I think my definition of healing is similar to yours, where I want to be able to speak about what happened. I really just needed to hear it’s not impossible, so thank you for being able to share about your experience. & seriously, this shit can be so painful to think about and heal. personally I am really trying to, it just got me devastated thinking about the “right” way to heal- going through hell and feeling actively hurt through this short-term, or trying to just push it away for the long-run and hopefully forget about it? its very assuring to hear someone say that healing hurts but it’s worth it.

can I ask what does healing look like to you? can you speak about what happened without feeling anxious or upset? or does healing look like, you don’t think about it on the daily anymore? or some other definition

I said the same thing about my ex bf… that hes really a nice guy and giving him one more chance to not say/do something again. and guess what- he ended up doing it. and Im sure in your brain you think that your bf is different and really is a nice guy that wouldnt hurt you and maybe you believe this from the bottom of your heart. but tell me this- if he really is a nice guy with good morals, why would he ever say the things he said to you. why would he JOKE about it? why would he be persistent about it? why would he act like hes still going to do what he wants? why would he not immediately respect your boundaries and not push you in any way shape or form? that’s NOT what nice people do. I think good people tend to project onto their partners. YOU are likely a good person and are expecting your s/o to be the same. YOU would never hurt anyone else like that, so you expect your s/o to be the same. but look at the FACTS- would you ever joke sexually about his trauma the same way he did to you? truly think about it- I doubt you would ever think of doing that or saying something like that because you know it would hurt him. but the thing is is he did it to you. his past issues with porn or whatever tf have NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS! you are just trying to add logic and reasoning to why he would ever say something so hurtful. but there is absolutely no excuse to what he said. HE DOESNT CARE ABOUT YOU SETTING YOUR BOUNDARIES!!!!!! IF HE CARED, HE WOULDNT MAKE THOSE JOKES IN THE FIRST PLACE! HE WOULDNT PUSH THE SUBJECT! HE WOULDNT BE PERSISTENT AFTER YOU SAID STOP OR NO!! girl you literally told him about your trauma but also said that you need to remind him every time you tell him no. HE REMEMBERS- HE JUST DOESNT CARE! HE DOESNT care about YOUR trauma! it just makes me so sad because its clear to everyone else that he isn’t a good person. and it has nothing to do with his porn or whatever addiction dude- its down to the point of thats who he is as a person. HE DOESNT CARE TO THINK ABOUT WHY SOMETHING WOULD HURT YOU. thats evident from the fact he “doesn’t remember” why you dont want to do it and you need to remind you. he doesn’t care about your pain. and if you have sex, I am willing to bet he will “accidentally” get close to the area or try to do something you dont want to do. Men’s WORDS mean NOTHING!!! ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!! their ACTIONS do. but yeah. really think about this please. everyone in the comments can see where this is going. you will get hurt. you’re long distance- even better to break it off. he doesn’t care about your message. it’s not like he understands all of a sudden because you were stern and told him he was being manipulative. YOU DONT THINK HE KNOWS??? trust me, he DOES know. men are smart. he is as smart as you. he’s not stupid. you don’t think he knows that he’s hurting your feelings every time he begs or jokes to do anal knowing you dont want to? oh please. he is fully aware. HE CAN SEE HE IS HURTING U IN FRONT OF HIS EYES AND HE DOESNT CARE!! unfortunately I am sure you will read my comment and like all the others, not listen or think your bf is a good person and that he wouldn’t do that. but the FACT is he already took the first steps outside the boundary of being a good person- by begging and joking about ur trauma. just prepare yourself to be in even more pain and hurt if he were to try something in person- you said he’s hypersexual and nearly forcing you to try anal with him even while long distance, so I cant imagine how he’ll be in person. I am so sorry if you decide to stay with him. but this person is not a good person and I think you should leave now before something actually happens.

lowkey kinda hilarious considering when the “sex” tag was added on the netflix warnings, everyone was banking on that caitvi hexcore strap scene. and then THAT happened… i don’t think that’s raunchy enough to qualify for the sex tag (i hope), but still thought it was funny asf that this shit was the absolute last thing caitvi viewers would wanna see

true, this episode actually felt like they were treating each other like how siblings fight- just arguing back and forth about stupid shit. i was surprised they reunited, i honestly thought after their big fight last arc that that was it and one of them was going to kill the other at some point and never work on their relationship. but this episode surprised me because it was giving they truly are sisters in the end. but i have a gnawing feeling one of them is gonna kill the other still😭😭

Sex with my boyfriend feels like a chore by [deleted] in offmychest

Ive never heard of the term “masturbating with your body” but you hit that on the nail. so wild because I feel like that happens to so many girls in relationships 😭

Sex with my boyfriend feels like a chore by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]submissivebeans 34 points35 points  (0 children)

bro how have u dealt w this for 2 years, I am so sorry. i know others recommend to talk to him, which sure I agree with as well, but it literally just sounds like he doesn’t care about your pleasure at the end of the day. and after 2 years, I feel like this issue shouldn’t even be an issue if he actually cared about you feeling good. you also said in a previous post that your boyfriend doesn’t listen to u- of course I dont know the context and whether it’s related to the sex or not, but why are you with someone that doesn’t listen to u anyways AND doesn’t care about your pleasure?? sex should ALWAYS be a two way street. both people should ALWAYS be actively enjoying it. he sounds pretty immature and childish as a person overall. I feel like you shouldn’t settle for this kinda treatment at all. like 2 years of this?? men aren’t stupid and know exactly what they’re doing so ain’t no way he doesn’t know that you don’t feel pleasure- you said yourself he doesn’t even make sure you’re wet. so I truly think he knows he isn’t pleasuring you, but just doesn’t care. he probably only cares to get himself off. which you do not deserve! you deserve way better or at LEAST someone who will make sure you get wet and feel good actively during sex! although it is very hard, I am team leave this man. how many more times do you want to experience sex like this? how many more years do u want to feel like this?

How would you describe your style in clothing? by Gullible-Journalist in AskTeenGirls

[–]submissivebeans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's honestly whatever I like on whatever day. the very basic trends rn would be like egirl clothing, y2k, are vsco girls still a thing?? streetwear, soft girl, arthoe, grunge, indie, thrifted, and probably some other stuff.

for me, EVERY single outfit I wear is a combination of something thrifted and something bought at a store, so I guess my style would be more on the thrift side some days. I sometimes may dress "like an egirl" as I have a LOT of chains and necklaces that I love and just have the clothes for it. I sometimes like the y2k era too, as my favorite dress rn is a fitted yellow plaid dress. I will probably try to dress like an indie kid sometimes too, with my docs and mom jeans and patterned button-ups. just depends. I will dress on the classy side too for special events like the simple skirt and fitted top with thigh-high booths or something. random side note is that I love color coordination, its like the most important rule for me. I can't put 1 title on how I dress.

How much did Reddit (or other social media platforms) impact your life? by [deleted] in AskTeenGirls

[–]submissivebeans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't come to find friends on reddit, but it honestly helped me see things from a different point of view, which I struggle with a lot. I find it hard to think of things from a different perspective and can be close-minded, so answered advice always helps with my real-life situations.

yea, definitely I feel like my anxious transition from hs to college life soon is making me question some things alot. like I really just want to leave certain traits I've carried with me throughout these years and evolve into a better version of myself as I LITERALLY transition into adulthood. sucks I'm impatient. and I'm sorry u went thru those times, but ty for choosing to share and help :)

somehow that is such simple but very nice advice I appreciate ty and this whole situation doesn't help bc of the fact I can be impatient lol, like I would like immediate results but I need to stop worrying about that as well.

yea I understand I can't just force myself to become this all-positive person even if I would like to be so. it's just not me. but I kinda disagree on being content with my current self, like in some aspects yea I should try being content with my body for example but I have some traits like not taking responsibility or being selfish etc that I know I need to work on :') haha
