    Relationships and asexuality

    Based on your description, you are not asexual but afraid of sexual interaction and it's consequences I can openly accept that my problem with sex could be rooted in psychology problems, which is why I'm still open to trying to overcome it -- if it's possible. However I take issue when a...

    Relationships and asexuality

    I've been dealing with a lot and was cuddling with a friend. I love cuddling so very much, but then I was worried if the reason I loved it was because it was somehow sexual. After research and talking it out with others, I've come to realize asexuality explained a lot. It's been a relief. I've...

    Sex drive: use it or lose it?

    No sure if the OP reads this topic anymore, but in case it's a comfort to someone else I consider myself asexual. I've seen quite a few asexual christians around the internet. Celibacy is a cakewalk, unfortunately it hasn't made my life easier or happier in regards to romantic relationships or...

    Advice about age difference?

    Being respectful is all you can do. Always be humble enough to realize maybe you don't understand all the complexities of a situation or their situation. Two people can experience the exact same situation but struggle with it in very different ways because we're different people with different...

    Family Issues

    My father has divorced my mother (by law she had no choice). It's become evidently clear that he's been having an affair for years and has been lying to his family for years. He has not told us yet, he's still hiding it. My dad has a sister, my aunt. I don't know her well but she's a bubbly...

    Should I move?

    That's a stressful situation :( I understand where you are coming from Messy. If I can be frank with you dear Messy, its sounds like the kids are in control of the home and not you. You don't want to stop their rowdy playing as a caring mother, but as a result you feel like you have to move to...

    Dating a Friend

    Just a feeble opinion. If you want to keep it light.... Maybe you should cheekily announce you're going to try to loose the bet to your friends. Then seek to find someone to date outside the circle of friends. If this girl is interested she might start dropping hints or change her behavior...

    Enjoy being Single?

    All I can think of... is that I'd want to be relaxed, independent, happy, and enjoying life whether I'm in a relationship or not. I'm not really in a rush to be in a relationship. Don't think I should be in one atm because I'm still working out being okay just as I am. One day though, things may...

    The last thing that burned you

    Sorry to hear that. Last time I burned my finger on steam too, was really tired and make a careless mistake. I only know to use aloe and ice though.

    Questions for Both the Guys and Gals

    Completely legit, especially the tacos. I should add that to my list! :D You're right that everything can change. I've seen people even go against their core nature, do things I never thought they would. Nothing is guaranteed nor permanent. Not people's good traits. Not even faith. It all can...

    How Can You Better Yourself?

    I'm working on becoming a more emotionally healthy person. Finding better boundaries, making better choices, becoming less responsible for others and becoming more responsible for myself and thus more independent, happy, and successful.

    Questions for Both the Guys and Gals

    Ah yeah, some of us have had low standards or were so "forgiving" and "understanding" we let toxic or unhealthy people into our lives over and over again. Instead of choosing to be with people who are mutually edifying and uplifting. And any relationship can be made to work regardless of...

    Need Advice on a woman-how do you "rewind"?

    Look at investing your time into a project or job. Something with a defined goal to keep your focus. If you have a hobby, try investing more time in things that bring you joy. Also try spending time with friends to help with your emotional needs. Make sure you're eating well and exercising. Get...

    Do YOU have a crush on anyone? (59)

    Brother, perhaps you should get something to eat and get some rest. It's better to stay offline if you're feeling drunk. Take care of yourself Rhamiel.

    Healthy Diet?

    You know, I honestly wouldn't mind if I had a boyfriend/husband that was into organics. It's just something I can't afford, but I respect the concept. As long as he wasn't legalistic about it, it would be cool with me.

    The shower..

    Eh... well.... I guess spiders normally stay where they are. So as long as he doesn't jump or it's not dangerous I'd be fine. I'm more concerned about wasps or roaches. :ueee:

    The shower..

    When you take a shower what shampoo do you use? Recently switched to Tresemme after using it at a hotel. Any conditioner? Always, and see above. Have you ever fallen down in the shower and cut yourself open with blood seeping down the drain? That's scary... but no, not that I recall. I...
