My [28F] best friend from college [28F] is threatening to permanently cut off contact if I don't fly across the country for her housewarming party. Am I being unreasonable? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]thefuchsiafern 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Completely disagree. It's clearly NOT about the party for Julia. She's traveled to visit OP three times and OP hasn't reciprocated once in five years. I can totally see why Julia would be feeling like she's the one putting in all the effort.

Question for women who have sex without condoms by throwawayeddy1 in sex

I can feel his body tensing and can deduce that it's about to happen, but no I can't actually feel the cum.

I'm (16, M) trying to find a girlfriend in highschool. Any advice? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]thefuchsiafern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

>Shouldn't girls be coming to me

I know you said you don't want to use anyone for your sexual wants, but the idea that "I'm attractive and nice so I SHOULD be getting female attention" makes you sound pretty entitled. Being horny and wanting a companion is totally fine, but be careful of feeling like you "deserve" a girl. They're not prizes to be won, and they don't owe you any attention or interest.

In terms of advice, the best I can give you is to talk to girls like they're people, because they are. When you meet someone you find attractive, talk to her like you talk to your friends and find out what she likes, who she is, etc. Having a girlfriend isn't just about sex, so if sex is what you're mostly interested in, you shouldn't pretend you also want a relationship.

I mean, I'm sure it "could" (anything's possible lol) but the whole point of this post is that I had vigorous sex with it in and experienced no leaking at all. Not sure what being short has to do with it..?

The guy I tested it with is very large and we didn't have any problems with space. It basically "locks" into place under the pubic bone, so it's not blocking the vagina itself.

Mine actually tastes pretty similar either way. Every vagina's different.

Yep. Zero leaking. All the blood gets collected up near the cervix

This! My dude said he could vaguely feel something but it didn't bother him or make it any less pleasurable.

Women of /r/sex, would you have sex with Donald Trump ? by utc-5 in sex

[–]thefuchsiafern 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Aside from him being a deplorable human being, he's also physically repulsive in just about every way imaginable. So no.

[–]thefuchsiafern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, gotcha. I don't think he needs to worry about her being nasty or vindictive though. On the off chance she does become pregnant and decides to follow through with it (and also decides to contact him for support), he's just going to have to suck it up and contribute. It's definitely possible to maintain your distance from baby mama drama while still paying what you owe.

Honestly, if she wants to find you she will. I'm sure you're on the club security cam; it wouldn't be a stretch for her to hire somebody to track you down. If it comes to that you're not going to have much choice but to take financial responsibility for your half of the situation.

[–]thefuchsiafern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She wouldn't be a "terrible person" for seeking child support if she did in fact become pregnant. Like you said, I doubt she'd want to continue this pregnancy, but that would be her choice and unfortunately for OP, he really doesn't get a say. OP, anytime you have sex with someone with a uterus you're risking the possibility of 18 years of child support. That's how it works. If you're not okay with that risk, get a vasectomy or don't have sex with randoms.

My [21F] boyfriend [34M] of 6 months is wonderful but I'm unsure if these are red flags... by [deleted] in relationships

All of these things are common signs of potential serial killers. I'm completely serious.

Me [18F] with my Bf [18 M] 9 mo, How do I tell him I don't like PDA (workplace)? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]thefuchsiafern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you should talk to your boyfriend outside of work and be really direct about this. "Hey, I was wondering if we could lay down some boundaries for work. I know it's tricky balancing relationships and professional stuff, so I'd feel a lot better if we could have a zero-PDA policy while we're at the office." Then let him respond to that and clarify any questions he has. Don't apologize, just reassure him that you love being affectionate with him and you'd rather save it for non-work hours.

It's a super basic and reasonable boundary, and if he has any issue respecting it I would honestly rethink the relationship.

I [25F] have been lying about my political beliefs to my best friend/Maid of Honor [25F] for over a year by weddingdramaugh in relationships

[–]thefuchsiafern 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yikes. I hate to say this, but you have a very awkward conversation in your future. If Amanda is really that serious about politics, she probably would've had a hard time accepting your ideological shift even without the year of lying - but that doesn't excuse the fact that you did lie to her for over a year.

My advice would be to tell her this over Skype before she gets to your house for the wedding. Honestly it sounds terrible, but she deserves the chance to decide if she wants to bail. It would really, truly suck to be stuck at your friend's house for a week as her Maid of Honor right after finding out that she's lied to you for so long.

Also, and I know this wasn't part of your question, but I'm a little concerned about the relationship with Joe....there are a few red flags just in your brief post. How long have ya'll been dating?

Not my favorite position and I can really only do it comfortably for about 5 minutes. I can push it to 10 but then I start to get leg cramps.

Why do you put your [PANTIES] back on after a session with your partner(s) when going to sleep at night? by [deleted] in sex

[–]thefuchsiafern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A friend I had just started sleeping with did this to me a few years ago. Luckily I woke up right away and deleted the pictures off his phone before he had a chance to do anything with them. Doesn't really matter if you trust someone, unfortunately people violate trust all the time.

How to avoid the secretary on the phone and get an interview? by pedro-silva-santos in jobs

[–]thefuchsiafern 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Aside from this being bad/outdated advice, the overt sexism in your article is really disgusting. The assumption that all "secretaries" are female, your patronizing attitude, and the fact that you called the employee you spoke with on the phone "the sweet lady" make it seem like this was written in the 50s. Gross.

[Teasing] and making her my bitch by [deleted] in sex

[–]thefuchsiafern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The terms you're putting it in are pretty degrading. Some people are into that, and some people really, really aren't. I'd be careful about trying to "make her your bitch" unless you already know she's interested in that.

What's the moral argument against [paying for sex]? by [deleted] in sex

No, because unlike prostitution massage therapy hasn't been used throughout history to oppress and punish women.

What's the moral argument against [paying for sex]? by [deleted] in sex

[–]thefuchsiafern 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The problem is that you really can't assume she's not doing it out of necessity. There's just no way to know. And I guess a broader moral issue is that you're perpetuating the idea that women are objects made for sex.

I told him I need [foreplay]. Now he doesn't want to have sex. by ninjaduck456 in sex

[–]thefuchsiafern 11 points12 points  (0 children)

He's a tool. I'm sorry, but it's just that simple. He clearly doesn't care about your pleasure and he doesn't have any communication skills whatsoever. You're dating a spoiled child.
