hangup

To be fair, I don't think I find the lack of touch *itself* "difficult". I'm very able to be alone to what would probably be considered an abnormally unhealthy degree. *Maybe* it's intertwined, but I …

I figured it out — I've known about emotional neglect for a while now, but despite knowing this I've been stuck in this deep dark pit for a decade. I've been living at home with my parents ever since I dropped out of co…

It feels so good to be very intentionally pursued by someone attractive. He got asked to model by someone and I totally get it. We are both doing different modeling gigs right now and it’s so funny. …

I don't disagree! It is very odd but I honestly think the reaction if I told someone I thought they were lying would be genuine shock. I think I wouldn't mind dating a little shorter than myself if t…

Same. My ex and I were legally married but separated and dating other people for almost 2 years before the divorce was finalized. Zero emotional hangups on either of our ends—and yet I always dreaded …

I’m not condoning the affair but I understand it; being affection-starved, you went into someone else’s arms. Having sex two times in eight years with your husband, I probably would have strayed, mayb…

I am from a family of 8 kids. Super close. Let me tell you, we are all as different as night and day. I know I can never expect from that one what the other seems to offer naturally. my instincts know…

I like it described as heading the party in YOU that created the situation (of illness, etc) that you are experiencing in the other person. And yes it works to soothe this situation and resolve your h…

It's clearly a HORRIBLE character-fault in me that I'm in favor of kindness and not reading things in the worst possible sense. Of course insecurity makes it more challenging to have a good sex-life,…

Well first, you're human, so forgive yourself for that. Having urges and cravings doesn't make you bad, even acting on those doesn't make you bad. There's lots of research going on now that basicay sa…

I think you stated it about as well as it can be. I had this conversation yesterday and today with the woman I'm dating. We're both tired of people not actually able to work through issues. I made it …

Hi fellow writer, I think I started around age 10! I'm 32 now and so far have attempted to write a crazy amount of stories, including finishing \~4 full novel-length drafts... The first 3 were prob a …

The amount of anger in your tone kind of tells me you're the one with the hangups bud lol. The problem in western society is it sees AM as inherently unattractive as they are; having a woman take an …

I agree. Everyone thinks their level of libido is normal. I'm a HLF coming from a dead bedroom and didn't want that to happen again. Looking back, there were signs that my ex husband wasn't much …

You hunt, or have any interest in it? If you join a hunting club where everyone shares a larger lease. That's a pretty good way to broaden your social circle. Like wise if you can find a fishing group…

This is grounded, realistic and respects the fact that she has autonomy and apparently wants to, at the very least, fool around. OP, life is short, if you don't at least try it out you may find yourse…

You're not hearing what this person is telling you. The problem isn't the sleep thing. The problem is how he treats you and that is something that speaks to how poorly he views you and how little he c…

if your boyfriend is a real one he’ll hear you out and understand why you don’t wanna be around ruby or hear about her. obviously it would be wrong to expect him to cut her off but he should be chill …

And are people of this nationality all the same ethnicity? What about your wife? Same or different? Are there any historical hangups between the two?

My wife has different nationality. No historical hangups at all.

you're not being abusive at all, this dude is just sending mixed signals like crazy. flinching when you touch him but having enthusiastic hookups with randos? that's not a you problem the whole "i…

>But I will now. The idea that it is acceptable for a man to just avoid his family, rather than be a responsible adult and address whatever is affecting his home life is a cop out. He’s avoiding his r…

By breaking up with her, you’d be potentially sending her back to a man that will rape her. Having only recently gotten this new job, she would most definitely not have enough saved up for the first m…

The tapes are not magical. They are a set of tools with which you can affect many changes in your life, or to just help you create an intentional space for introspection and relaxation. They are not "…

Why the hangup on that one?

anyways I'm really sorry you're going through things right now. everything is kinda pointless but also that's the cool thing, you get to make the meaning of stuff if you want, or don't if it feels bet…

It's YOUR body. Your insurance, you're 18, you didn't need their permission to do what's best for you. Honestly, and I say this with love, who gives a crap what they think? Don't stay in pain because …

If his biggest hangup is pregnancy then prevention is the way to go. Condoms and birth control. Research the birth control because there are a ton of options and pros and cons for all of them. Condoms…

The hell??? Girly you said you had no problem with it, he wanted it, dude blew a load and got a blowie. Ain’t no man about to complain about that. You probably threw up due to some sort of semen/food…

Honestly, if he waited til age 26 to have sex, I doubt he has a very strong drive. Either that or he has religious hangups about sex that make it difficult for him to enjoy it. Or he’s on an antidepre…

I want to know the person I’m having sex with. Number of dates is irrelevant. If someone wants to judge me as having sexual hangups because I don’t bang strangers, have at it, idc. Zero FOMO on sex w…
