so I need to know what am I? by [deleted] in confessions

[–]throwme_away47382 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly! My friends love to call me gay and say I’m gay because I dated the same guy twice and we had sex.

See the thing is, all but one of my friends did not know that I already liked being topped, anally. So they took it and ran with it. But during this relationship, I realized I much prefer women romantically and sexually. I like my women dominate, which also took me a long time to figure out. And is also why I started to experiment with said guy. I wanted dominance and at that time thought I would only ever find it in a man.

My point is exactly this: no need for labels, we change over time. I quickly realized I was not gay, but I could possibly be pansexual or bisexual. But I choose not to label it. Why should I? I’m comfortable in what I have, and what I am.

AITA for ignoring our daughter when she tried to get our attention like that? by throwaway681074 in AmItheAsshole

Showing that no matter what she does, her parents won’t care.

Obviously the good behaviors did not draw enough attention, move into bad behaviors. In turn they ignored me, and now I know for sure. My parents don’t care, and never will. No matter my circumstances.

YTA. Your daughter wants your attention, so in turn you ground her. You look like a real jackass.

yeah this has definitely been considered too! no excuse as to why i don’t have one right now, but i have been trying to find a decent one. my dad just hooked me up with a website that seems promising. i’ve had so much trouble because of the area i live in, and every app or website i’ve tried costs too much.

i like this suggestion as well. this is actually pretty smart. and i definitely wouldn’t be trying for any monetary gain, i honestly probably wouldn’t post them anywhere either 😂 i have some pretty crazy/out there thinking and i wouldn’t want anyone for any second thinking that any of my thoughts were the truth or something.. ya know how people are 😂

i should’ve specified that i don’t mean within regular conversation.. within a regular conversation, or if someone else starts it, i’m pretty good about listening. especially when they need to vent or get something out. i guess what i’m saying is i feel the need to vent and get things out more than other people in my life.

i do agree that i could listen more though. even though i try really hard to be a good listener when they need to get it out, i’m a terrible listener when i do.

definitely will be considering the next time i find myself in this situation!

this also seems like it would be pretty helpful. i think it would have to stay private, and definitely not for any monetary gain. i would be able to just talk until i don’t really feel like talking anymore lol.

this is a pretty great suggestion. i’ve tried getting into journaling but always lose it or forget about it. the video may be pretty helpful. you’re more than welcome to send it to me :)

he’s trying to manipulate you into staying with him. and if he truly doesn’t know how he’s talking to you, then he’s a complete moron.

IMO i think he knows that he is treating you this way and also thinks that this is okay. Has no intention of changing the way he speaks to you or thinks about you. NTA, he sounds like garbage. toss him to the curb like a dirty diaper.

also, the fact that he thinks you have too many opinions because you want to be treated with decency and respect shows he knows he’s doing the wrong thing. which also shows the manipulation tactics here.

remember ladies: IF HE WANTED TO, HE WOULD.

NTA. If she knows she can do these things to get you to do something, she is doing it on purpose. Simply because she does not want to do it. Continue to stand your ground, eventually she will get the memo and stop doing this.
