As part of my parole, I’m legally obligated to give the occasional anti-drug PSA as well as to shill for our boys overseas. My (23F) boyfriend (22M) of three years may get kicked out of the military for smoking weed, and I'm thinking about leaving him because of it quote:So, a little background. My boyfriend- we'll call him John- and I met three years ago while he was visiting my school at the time. He lives about 2 hours away from me and still does, though we see each other several times a month for days at a time.

flick my Mr. Bean posted:Fluid bonded sounds like a way for poly people to still convince themselves that their partner isn't actually having sex with a person, just a condom. Eh it's a dumb term but a p reasonable thing. Condoms are basically the best barrier to std's and an extra layer of protection against accidental pregnancy. If you're truly gonna try to a stable open relationship it seems like a super obvious thing that condoms should be involved whenever a third party is. Particularly in this story where she expected him to always use one but immediately went raw with her new beau, because it just feels better lol.

My (44F) husband (51M) is becoming incredibly strict, almost like a drill sergeant, towards our son (13M). I have tried to stop this but he is too focused on 'making a man' out of our son. Meanwhile he doesn't do this at all to our daughter (8F) What do I do?quote:My husband was a good man, to me at least, he was never rough or aggressive or mean spirited or anything. I knew he himself had a rough upbringing, he was raised in old school NYC and his mom was an alcoholic, he was in a street gang in brooklyn apparently. I wonder how this woman didn't notice she was getting married to the comments section on a local news article instead of a person.

Ride The Gravitron posted:24 year old virgin Log in / Register r/relationshipsRelationships I (24/m) had sex with a prostitute when I was single. Just a few months later, I meet the girl (25/f) of my dreams. I lied to her about my past and feel guilty. u/jjames21 I lost my virginity to a prostitute early last year at a bachelor party while traveling outside of the country. I felt very guilty while I was doing it and couldn't even finish the deal. I used a condom and only had sex, nothing else. I stopped the sex because I couldn't get a full erection and I was feeling very guilty the whole time. I took pride my whole life on waiting until I found a girlfriend. Then I go to a different country and get a prostitute in front of me and I couldn't say no. I felt extremely guilty for months after and still do to this day. I felt like I lost value in myself as a human and I wasted something so precious. I believed I would never deserve a girl after that because of my big mistake. My problem is... I met my first girlfriend and the girl of my dreams 4 months ago and didn't have the heart to tell her early on. I told her I have had sex before. She would dig deep into my history, so I lied and told her I have had sex 3 times before I met her. She is a virgin and wants to wait until marriage. However, she has done oral on other guys. I feel so guilty for hiding this from her. I know this is something that she probably doesn't want to hear. For the past few months, I have been feeling so guilty and afraid she will break up with me for having sex with a prostitute. In some ways, I feel like I am being selfish by wanting to clear my conscience. On the other hand, I feel like I need to tell her before I ever have sex with her. She has given me oral and I feel guilty for even putting her in that position as well. I feel like I can maybe hold it in for a while, but if I ever get to the point of having sex with her, I will feel extremely guilty at that moment. Especially because I would be taking away her virginity. What should I do? How should I break the news to her? Should I even tell her? What should I expect from her? TL;DR- I lost my virginity to a prostitute with guiltful sex when I was single. I have been lying to my girlfriend about my sexual history for the past 4 months and it is eating me up inside.

Log in / Register r/relationshipsBreakups My girlfriend [15F]broke up with me [15M] because I am a virgin u/samguf I live in California and I have not been able to sleep all night. I have spent hours just staring at the moon (honest to god my fav thing to do, it helps me think) from my bedroom window. Last night I was talking to my ex via text and she asked if I was a virgin. I am a very honest person, I believe honesty is very important. I told her I am a virgin and I have had no sexual experience at all apart from making out if that counts. Honest to god this is what she sends back. " We need to break up. your a good looking guy but, I want a man who knows what he is doing. I am not going to get that with a virgin, see you in class tomorrow" For one I am not going to school today, I am taking the day off. I am going to go to the mall and will see a movie. But I dont really know what to do with myself. I don't really understand the problem with being a virgin especially at my age. I don't understand wasting 8 months of my life. As I said I am taking the day off, don't really want to go to school today. But I just don't know what to do with myself. It's not like I have ever lied to anyone about not being anyone. Its a stupid thing to lie about, your partner will find out sooner or later. Apologises for any mistakes, I have never used Reddit and probably won't again. I am not big into online talking. I prefer face to face tl;dr: girlfriend broke up with me because I am a virgin

Log in / Register r/relationshipsUpdates [Update] I [21F] really like this guy [24M] but I don't know how to tell him that I'm a virgin. u/randomnamereddit You can read the original post here: https://redd.it/3vcuy5 I didn't expect to write an update, but here I am. First I want to thank everyone who gave me advice. I received a lot of PMs with ideas and practical tips. They gave me confidence and the feeling that I wasn't alone, so thank you very much. I read everything again today and it still makes me feel a little bit better. The day after I wrote my first post I went to his place. We were watching Netflix, the atmosphere was calm and peaceful. We started talking about people we knew, about being in love, James said he loved me and it was a different feeling than what he felt for his ex-girlfriends but in a good way, he kissed me, and suddenly I told him. I explained I was ashamed to tell him, but that I was a virgin. No big deal, I -- -- couldn't explain further because he started laughing. He called my confession "a good joke". I tried to tell him that I was serious, I wasn't religious, I didn't want to wait until -- -- he was laughing again. I didn't feel the need to laugh with James. It really was embarrassing. I asked him to stop and to listen to me, because this was something I struggled with for weeks. Then he asked where I'd read this stuff, and he said it was silly to pretend to be a virgin because both of us knew I wasn't a virgin. If I wanted to turn him on, he said, I could better tell him something kinky. Now I thought James was joking, but he wasn't. He really didn't believe me, because "girls like you can't be virgins and if they are, there is something wrong with them". "So now you say there's something wrong with me?" I asked. Finally he understood that I was serious, but after an awkward silence he told me he has high standards because his previous girlfriends were very good. He didn't believe that a virgin could make him happy. Dumb-rear end me replied a little desperate that he could teach me. He just said no. Soon after this I left. James has blocked me everywhere, so I guess I don't have to worry about sex anymore. I'm more heartbroken than I thought I would be, and I don't understand what I did wrong. I really loved him, and that's a feeling I only had once before. I trusted him, and now I spoiled everything. Apologies if this post is unclear, but my head is unclear too. tl;dr: Told him I'm a virgin. First he thought it was a joke, but then he said he has high standards and a virgin couldn't make him happy. He blocked me everywhere, so I guess it's over. I'm heartbroken.

I [F24] was dumped by him [M25] because I'm not a virgin. u/ImAFemalePerson Pardon my emotions, this just happened so the wound is nice and fresh! The fellow I was seeing is religious. Super sweet guy. We'd been dating for about 2 months. After the usual cutesy good morning texts, he called me, asked me about my beliefs, then asked if I had had sex. I told him yes. Then he sounded angry and said, "Well that isn't something I can compromise on" and it was essentially over at that point. Why didn't he bring it up sooner if it was a deal breaker for him? He said, "I almost feel like I should have brought this up sooner, but it's awkward at first." But if it's so important... Wouldn't you bring it up right away? I brought up my deal breaker after the 2nd date (I live with my folks so meeting the parents is inevitable after a few months). I assumed he was a virgin, and I was more than willing to wait for him until marriage. I felt he was worth it. I just think it's silly to have waited all this time to discuss it. I'm not irritated that he has this deal breaker, just that it took two months to discuss it. I guess my questions to y'all are... When do you release your deal breakers if you have any? Was this "usual"? TLDR; He waited 2 months to tell me that he only wants to date virgins. Edit: I wasn't expecting all of this support from the Reddit community! Thank you all so much for your comments. This was a pleasant surprise.You got me through a bummer of a day so again, thank you.

I can kinda see the 'not wanting to make a big production out of taking someone's virginity and the awkwardness and attachment that comes with it' but what a weird reaction that James guy had. From the laughing (because he knew it was a joke, except it wasn't) to the way that he immediately got all serious and was like "oh you won't know how to suck my dick right and then you'll get all clingy afterwards, yaknow what, nah, l8r" and then blocked her?? That's one of the weirder stories posted in a while.

I'm glad that the 15 year old guy has learned that he needs to Take Good Care of himself every time something unexpected happens. Being only 15, the list of actions he can do to Take Good Care of himself are limited to: 1. Staring at the moon like some kind of water brained idiot / dog (even though dogs can't look up) 2. Going to the mall 3. Seeing a movie A girl just told you no tickie no fuckie?? Time to take a day off school, draw a warm bath, and Take Good Care of himself at the mall / movies

I came from a tiny town and didn't do anything until I got to college, and that was a huge issue for guys, who almost all reacted exactly that way. It turns out the virgin = psycho stereotype is uhhh bad Yeah I don't doubt that sentiment exists, more that I disagreed with that line of thinking. Like, what does that implicitly say about why you're engaging in the sexual encounter? Entirely for your own pleasure, or to share an experience with a person you care about? It's hard to not see it as #1 if the idea of a virgin is such a turnoff. *goes to Amateur night at the strip club to boo the new girls*

Also, the chores are unreasonable, but "he started chores at 7" seemed way weird to me. As soon as my kids could walk they were put in charge of cleaning their toy room occasionally, cleaning their plate in the garbage and putting it in the sink, and bringing in the garbage cans. I'll admit, that last chore was just because I didn't want to do it, but I'm talking about 2 year olds, here.

Myself and gf of 1 year (23M/F): I watched her beat the poo poo out of a man who wanted to hurt her and stay happy about it. I just can’t look at her the same sincequote:On 8 December 2017 my girlfriend “Thea” and I attended a birthday party which our friend, through some stroke of dumbassery, decided to hold in a restaurant in a park. To give you an idea, it’s by a lake in the middle of a park and you have to walk ten minutes (or more, if you are like my gf and wear heels everywhere) to the park gate. You can’t call a cab or drive to the restaurant. loving stupid. I think deep down inside of this guy, in his heart of hearts, he felt a tiny bit of cold comfort in the physical power he assumed he had over his girlfriend, and now he feels vulnerable. Imagine being with a partner who could beat the poo poo out of you if they really wanted to... oh wait.
