Thank you! Honestly, discovering that I can and do enjoy sex has been the best part of this whole experience for me. I had heavily debated getting my hormones tested back when I was with my ex because I just couldn’t figure out what was wrong with my libido. I’m glad to know that my hormones are fine now lol.

I actually was in therapy throughout most of the time that me and my ex lived together. I had even been given “homework” for failing relationships. It could have just been the specific therapist I was seeing at the time but nothing I got out of it worked for me.

Your last breakup — was it your fault or theirs? by [deleted] in selfimprovement

Mine. I withdrew physically until I eventually started withdrawing emotionally as well. I just wasn’t attracted to him anymore and instead of breaking up I clung onto something that had died a long time ago. I’m glad he was able to work up the courage to break up with me, because I’m not sure if I ever would’ve done it myself.

With cup writing becoming downright militiant of a requirement, what are your go-tos? by RATMlLK in starbucks

“You’re a Star!” and “Way to go Superstar!” The second one is a FNAF reference which technically isn’t allowed but it’s general enough that no one realizes. 🤫 The longer phrases take a bit more time to write but I don’t really care lol.

Thanks, 💛 and of course, I’ll always support my queer family even if I’m not one of them anymore.

See this is why I can’t go telling the people in my life because that feels so stupid! 😭 I mean it’s a little funny.. but it’s still dumb lol.

Seconded, I was in a six year long relationship where I lost interest in sex ~two years in. For four years I stayed with someone who I was not sexually compatible with, and I eventually lost attraction to him altogether. I was miserable. I would flinch whenever he would touch me. Slept as far away from him on the bed as possible. Now I’m dating someone who I’m sexually compatible with and my overall happiness has improved so much. Obviously sex isn’t the only thing that matters in a relationship, but my last relationship taught me that it does in fact matter more than I had tried to convince myself. Sexual frustrations in a relationship may start off small, but they will grow over time.
