Is it the sort of venue you book for an event? If so I get it, I've booked some childish venues or for events and had open bars and adult entertainment set up. Licensing alone wouldn't allow anyone under 18 to attend legally. Yes it's at a library, no you can't bring a child.

My ex girlfriend broke up with me about two months ago, after two years together. Things ended up pretty badly because she lied about the reasons she was beaking up with me, so I am currently mad other than heartbroken.
We go to the same university and have common lessons and friends so we are "forced" to at least say hello.
We didn't do the "I'll give you your things back" bit because we both believe that presents stay presents even when people break up.
The thing is... I have her underwear.
She slept frequently at mines so she left a couple of bras and 4/5 panties in my drawer. Should I tell her if she wants them back? If she wanted them back, shouldn't she have told me by now? What do I do with this stuff, throw it away? I really don't want to see her or talk to her if it's not absolutely necessary.
tl;dr: My ex left a few pieces of underwear at my house. I don't want to see her or talk to her, but should I contact her to know if she wants them back? If not, should I just throw them away?

My girlfriend (27) and I (F, 31) have been seeing a man (35) together for the last 3 months. We're polyamorous, so it's a relationship, not just about sex.
He sometimes has trouble maintaining an erection when the three of us are together, and also when it's just him and I. My GF says it hasn't happened to her when she was with him one on one. I'd say it's happened every other time we've had sex, and we see each other 2-3 times a week.

He has no issues getting hard, but will go soft during sex, at some point. A few times right before penetration, once when I was giving him oral. We haven't exactly talked about it at length, but when it happened last time, he acknowledged it. This is how the convo went.

Him Oh, I don't seem to be functioning this morning?
Me: It's ok! Is it a mental issue?
Him: No.
Me: Oh, is it a medical issue?
Him. No. Me: Ok, why does it happen?
Him: I don't know, stress from work? Could be a number of things.

We cuddled/fooled aroud after this, and he was able to get hard and come with my girlfriend later. I didn't keep pressing it, cause I read that it's not ideal to discuss it during sex, right after it happened. But I'd like to bring it up. I understand the penis isn't a clockwork machine, that this happens from time to time. But it's been happening a lot for it to be considered 'normal' and I'm getting to a point where I'm hesitant to initiate penetration because it's not satisfying for me.

What can my girlfriend and I do to help him? How should we talk to him about it?

tl;dr: 2 women, 1 man in a relationship. Man loses erection during sex, but only in group or with me. What can we do/How to approach talking about it?

Okay so i am a 15 year old male and i never had sex before and neither has my girlfriend. (shes the same age btw) So this is the first time for both of us and it was quite rushed.. So first were planing on going to do it at her fathers house but we didn't and when we came back to my house we did it and we didn't have much time because my mother was trying to get us down stairs and when I put the condom on I tried it the one way ad it didn't go so i knew to flip it because it was the wrong way and it went on correctly. So we did our thing and I busted in her but the condom was on and afterwards I checked with holes like i legit filled the ****ing thing with water and nothing came out it was perfectly fine. So then we just like relaxed and **** the rest of the night because everything seemed to go fine. Now this was last Friday the 17th and now its the 23rd and she was supposed to get her period on the 20th and she thinks its late and so do i but its sketchy because ever since Tuesday shes had cramps but its like on and off and she still hasten gotten her period yet so shes 3 days late and i am low key freaking the **** out and don't know what to do if she actually doesn't get it and is pregnant. Someone help me so i don't panic and this ****s been crossing my mind for the past 3 hours. IM GOING INSANE WHILE TYPING THIS IDK WHAT TO DO!!??

Friend [24F] wants us [22-25Fs] to call her "mom."Non-Romantic

"My [25M posted:

wife [26F] writes outlandish fanfiction and honestly it kinda bothers me"]
Prefacing this by saying I have absolutely nothing against people who write fanfiction, or fanfiction itself. I've read some that are really cool.
So I've been married to my wife for a good four years now and we're doing great. At first we got a bunch of people who told us we got married too young, it wasn't gonna last, and some other rude stuff but really, we're doing just fine. There's nothing in the relationship that makes me think Helen (diff name) might be unhappy with me, our marriage, her life, etc. Which is why this took me so much by surprise.
Helen reads a lot and plays a bunch of video games, something I could never get into because of bad screen sickness. A few days ago I was on our joint desktop (her gaming PC) looking things up when I noticed she left her fanfiction account logged in some fanfiction website. I knew these things are usually public and assumed she wouldn't mind me reading the stuff she wrote. I may be in the wrong because I didn't explicitly ask for permission to read her fanfiction, but she's an established writer and I really love her stuff so I just assumed it would be fine.
Basically Helen had this incredibly long, ongoing fanfiction she had been writing for a good year now with multiple chapters and hundreds of characters. It was pretty much like a "second life." The main character was basically a thinly veiled, more powerful, more "attractive" (I think she's perfect in real life but fictional Helen was skinnier, had amazing shiny gold hair, etc) version of herself, who went around making friends with all her favorite book and video game characters, doing heroic deeds, and just having a merry old time for a good 60 chapters. She had a whole fictional family made up of her favorite video game characters who rallied to her support whenever her main character needed a hug, and this main character basically went around romancing every single one of her video game crushes when she wasn't saving the world from the clutches of evil.
Two things struck me as odd about this. First of all, in all her writing I've never seen her this self-congratulatory and (dare I say it) narcissistic. Second of all, I just found it odd that she would need to escape to a fantasy world to this extent when I thought her life was fine. I got worried that maybe she had some stressors or hardships that she just wasn't telling me, so I sat her down and told her about the fanfiction I had read, and asked if she was doing okay. She laughed and brushed it off, saying it was just fanfiction and a lot of people lived crazy fantasy lives vicariously through weirdly talented fictional alter egos ("mary sues"). Maybe I'm overthinking things, but I'm just not convinced. That thing was loooooong, and I just can't see how someone with a good life would even want to put in so much effort to escape from reality.
tl;dr: Found wife's ridiculously self-congratulatory and wish fulfilling (and very, very, VERY long and extensive) fanfiction. wife says it's all good harmless fun, but I'm worried that she might not be happy with her life and is using it to escape.

Tale As Old As Time posted:

First time posting. My wife and I have been swinging for about 2 years and we just recently agreed to try having an open marriage and it went disastrously for me.

With 24 hours of establishing her online dating profile she slept with the first guy she found appealing. Then she slept with 2 more guys in a single evening while I was out on my first and only date, 3 days after the first encounter and then another guy a day or so after that.

She claims she used protection each and every time and that this is purely a physical thing for her.

I have slept with one girl since this began but am devastated at her recklessness of it all. Yes I know I agreed to it and that is my fault for doing so but there needs to be a happy median in this situation somehow and sleeping with 4 strangers inside of a week to doing this is not that.

Respectful and honest opinions are appreciated. I need to know that I am not crazy for feeling the way I do on this.

EDIT #1 I also have to explain that there have been other non-physical issues that have come from this as well that have influenced the way I feel. One being that I was originally expected to be away for my upcoming bday, in speaking with her i asked that she not have sex with anyone on my bday, to which she argued with me about the need to do so as I was going to be away regardless. I asked her, had I not asked her to refrain from loving anyone on my actual birthday would she have gone ahead and done so and she said yes, that she would have had i not asked her to. It's these kinds of things that I feel are incredibly disrespectful and show where her true priorities lie.
