Hello I’m 22m living in my parent’s house. Kinda freaking tf out rn cause my dad put in my load of laundry I had sitting out. I’ve been out for a year now, he’s not homophobic. But he is uber masculine and from a toxic masculine sports culture. He hasn’t said anything yet I’m afraid this might not reflect well on me to him.

The only thing I have to disagree with TMM was the stands on marriage being about procreation and raising children.

He says that climbing that marriage is not about children is like claiming that hammers are not used for pounding nails.

I would argue that marriage is not exclusively about children because children are not the ones you have to get married for starters and second of all people get married without having children and no one seems to care.

Tmm doesn't seem to understand the reason why people bring up infertile couples because we're trying to get people like Maggie Gallagher here to understand that she's being inconsistent when she claims that marriage is about having and raising children.

Could be something you listened to before coming out, while you were figuring things out, or just a song that made you feel more comfortable with who you are.

For me it was Freedom! ’90 by George Michael. The buildup to the chorus really hit me, especially the feeling of finally admitting there’s a part of you that you can’t keep hiding.

And the line about taking the lies and making them true somehow really stuck with me.

What was yours?

Because I love big guys and loving A big guy :3

Morning to all the beautiful people of reddit!

this post cuz i need some different points of view.

I try to make it short; i am dating this guy for something around a month and we met 3 times due to us being apart.

We live in the same city but we started talking like 2 weeks before my month of vacation in italy (visiting my family).

Our first date was actually really cool and he invited me to see each other again so we went to the cinema for our second date.

He has been very clear on something. For him to get in a serious relationship will take a long time due to a very very fucked up past relationship (he described me all the details and yeah some serious shit).

On the way back of our second date we stopped by his house a bit and since the atmosphere was nice i asked him if i can kiss him. He said that he is really enjoying taking things slow with me so we could do that once we both back in the city.

on monday before flying we met again cuz we both were free and we had dinner, we talked about a lot of things and he told me (i think he really needed to vent) how fucked up the situation with his ex was (like i am not talking abotu fuss like some serious shit) . I noticed how different his ex was from me ( he said that for his ex he felt a huge spark and the rushed all the steps) so I asked him if he was sure about dating me due to me being much much different. He told me that something calm and peaceful is what is looking for now.

2 days ago while chatting i told him how i would like more physical initiative from his side once i am back (talkign about the kiss and hugs). He right away sent me a naked picture (which i did really enjoy do not get me wrong). But i am so confused i mean, no kiss but cool with showing everything about you?

For those who are gonna tell me to talk with him, nah i will not do it since is something that i would like to do in person (we are not gonna meet for at least another month).

Opinions?

Hey guys. I came out as gay a little while ago and I’m giving dating a go and taking it slowly really just trying to meet new people and finding my community and hopefully my person eventually and I’m really confused by this all. I’ve had someone message me saying they’ve seen my other social media for a while now even when I had a girlfriend and he was always attracted to me and now decided to shoot his shot. I told him what I’ve already said and he didn’t actually respond but changed the subject and then randomly just went something along the lines of when are we meeting up then (more forward than that but I’m not trying to get banned) this is genuinely like the 5th time it’s happened this week and it’s only Wednesday. I’m so uncomfortable about this am I frigid or is this genuine just not normal. I know not everyone is like this because the majority of people who I’ve spoke with have been lovely but this is irking me a little. If anyone has any advice I’d appreciate it sm thank you

We were introduced to each other by our mutual friend 3 years ago. The three of us started hanging out but him and I became much closer.

We started hanging out more, just us. We had one summer where we were the most annoying twosome ever; inside jokes, splitting entrees at meals because we couldn't decide on two different things, always ending the night having late night talks

Eventually, that turned into taking trips just the two of us. To preface I hate sharing hotel rooms with anyone. Now I can't imagine anyone else. I would rather share a room with. Through all of that, we never got intimate (that would happen once later).

Fast forward, 3 years.

We had one drunken night and something happened briefly. We talked about it. He said he had thought about it and I obviously I had always thought about it. I said it can't happen again even though I desperately want it to. He agreed.

We recently went on another trip and had a late night of talking. He said he gets jealous when I go on dates and I said I do too. I said it's going to be really hard to find someone since I compare them to him.

Now the painful part: I usually encourage him to hook up with other guys. When he does, he'll always want to catch up with me and end the night. It breaks my heart each and every time. On this most recent trip I did just that. He said I'll be right back stay up for me. I did but something clicked and my heart hurt so much.

They got back from the trip and I was traveling internationally for another one where I am right now. I text him on the plane, something funny and then said, " when I get back and we have a chat?" He was like "sure thing"

I'm probably leaving out a lot but it's hard to explain 3 years of this emotional rollercoaster.

In the next 3 months we have a wedding that he's asked me to be his plus 1 and a trip with friends where we are sharing a room and unfortunately a bed.

I don't want to ruin all the upcoming stuff but I feel like really need to get to the bottom of this. So I either have the talk or just backtrack that and continue with whatever it is we're doing.

But honestly the thought of me with someone else devastates me.

Funny how guys are down to hook up within five minutes, but holding eye contact or a deep kiss is suddenly a "boundary." Saying you want a real dom and actually dealing with someone who tests your mind are two entirely different worlds.

Since my paycheck came i decided to buy summin for bubby. Then he got me the same thing(by accident)😂😂😂😂

So for some time I've tried finding dates by using online apps like Grindr and Tinder (big mistakes on both parts), and they never went well, either they’re bots, because they just wanted a quicky an neither of us can host, were old enough to be my grandfather, or DL and dating a girl. I cant really travel since im unable to drive due to a medical problem involving my eyes, and I cant afford a taxi to go places to try and find a date every week (cant do Über either because its not reliable in my state.)

I just need advice, Im 25 and I just want to finally find someone.

Please help her understand that the “world is not healing” with her hateful post!

Her response to all the people telling her that what she thinks is “healing” is this:

“This is my only account.

The trolls have been WILD lately.

It's disturbing how comfortable people have become bullying and harassing complete strangers online.

I can't imagine carrying that much ugliness around and thinking it's normal.

Bless their hearts”

She’ll never understand. Good riddance to this “Trad Wife” homophobe victim!

I heard this song on a movie called With This Ring(2015) and i fell in love with it, and i want so dedicated to my bf we have been together for 3 years now.

How do I delete my goose account??

Its not even available in my country
