Is this long distance relationship just hopeless?

My boyfriend and I live a continent apart. He is 20, I am 21. We have been dating long distance for over 5 years and only had one breakup few months back.

Which in return, he came back to me. But what we realised was, he needed friends, not a partner.

And so recently, he made friends. And ever since that, he has been texting and calling me less, making me feel sidelined.

When asked, he said they have more interesting thing to say and kinda just dont care about the relationship. He loves me, but just cares more about his friends.

Is it just over? I love him, I still care for him, and I want him in my life.

But if it’s over, I will need to cut him off cuz I cant imagine the thought of someone else having him. He is a great friend, but I love him more.

What's up with the dick through jeans/underwear hole thing?

Only ever seen that amongst online gay porn pics, I find it a bit odd, slightly goofy. Like I'm talking pants button still buttoned dick through zipper or through the front of the brief hole. Why wouldn't you just pull your underwear/pants down lol

Awkward rejection.... vent?

Met this really cute guy on Grindr and we decided to meet up. I want to preface by saying, Its the end of the summer and I've been celibate for many, many months.

Anywaysss... we met up and the guy acted really nervous and weird, in which I called him out for it with his reply being, "You're gorgeous, don't get me wrong, but you're wayyyy too tall for me."

I wasn't offended, if anything I giggled and said, "Aren't you 6'5? Im 7 inches shorter than you (5'10)"

And he replied back with, "Yea, but I normally go for guys like 5'7 or shorter." In which I said good luck and got out of there. He later then texted me on Grindr and said he messed up and should have gotten to know me at least cause I was his type to a tea and I just blocked him. Im a little too secure with myself to have a guy be this weird and hesitant about this kinda stuff. Was I wrong?

[M33] I found years—possibly terabytes—of meticulously organized porn on my partner's computer. Should I be concerned?

I recently discovered that my partner has what I consider to be an extremely concerning relationship with porn. I saw that he was torrenting a bunch of porn, so I opened the folder it was saving to and found years' worth—possibly terabytes—of gay and straight porn. I can't even begin to express the sheer volume of what I found.

Beyond just downloading it, the level of organization is otherworldly. He has everything organized by date, type, model, etc., with folders inside folders inside folders. I know it wasn't great of me to invade his privacy and go looking through his files, but I've found other things in the past that have broken my trust. When I saw the downloading app open while he was working on his laptop, I honestly couldn't help myself.

We both work from home and do basically everything together, and I've never even seen him masturbate alone, so I'm not even sure when he watches it. And the amount he has is so enormous that it seems impossible he could ever actually watch more than a fraction of it.

I wouldn't really mind too much if I didn't think it was affecting our sex life, but it clearly is. Our sex life has almost come to a screeching halt. We both deal with depression, but beyond that, he has never once initiated sex. I realize that's just the case for some couples, but after discovering all of this, I can't help but see a connection between his relationship with porn and his lack of desire to initiate—or even have—sex with me.

When I confronted him about it, he didn't really explain why he does it or what drives him. He said something to the effect of it being related to his low self-esteem, and also that it's a hobby. But beyond that, I really didn't get much of an explanation.

Over the last several years, our sex life has slowed down significantly. When we do have sex, it almost always involves watching porn, looking for a third, scrolling on apps, etc. It doesn't feel very romantic or intimate anymore.

Does anyone have experience with something like this? What can I do to help him? I've tried multiple times to tell him how much I think this affects us and our relationship, and how concerned I am. It's not that I have anything against porn—I love porn myself—but the sheer volume of it, the organization, and the number of hours he must be putting into collecting it all feels very concerning to me.

Any words of advice would be much appreciated.

TL;DR: I recently discovered that my partner has years' worth—possibly terabytes—of meticulously organized gay and straight porn. I'm not against porn and enjoy it myself, but the sheer volume, the amount of time he seems to spend collecting it, and the way our sex life has nearly disappeared have me seriously concerned. He rarely seems interested in sex with me, never initiates it, and when we do have sex, it often involves porn or apps instead of intimacy. I'm trying to understand what's driving this behavior and whether there's anything I can do to help.

Follow up to my previous-post, is it safe?

I found a dual-layered silicone of platinum quality (it says "dual-layer platinum silicone" on the box, I think it refers to the quality?), is it as safe as regular silicone?

Is Expecting the bare minimum in a relationship, still too much to ask for ?

Okay, I need some outside perspective because I'm genuinely starting to question whether I'm being unreasonable.

I'm M(25) I've recently started dating this guy, M (23). It's still very early in the relationship, we're been talking for a month plus and officially became boyfriends about two and half weeks ago, which is honestly why I'm struggling with this so much.

From the beginning I've told him that communication, consistency and effort are really important to me. I'm not expecting him to text me all day or be available 24/7. If he's busy, that's completely fine. I just expect him to communicate that.

Recently he's been dealing with a lot of family, business and work issues. I've tried to be understanding and supportive, and I genuinely don't mind being there for him. But when he's overwhelmed, he tends to disappear.

He went MIA for several days (4), and I eventually had to ask him what was going on. He explained that he was overwhelmed and didn't want to bring all his problems into our relationship. We had a really deep conversation about it, and I told him that I understand needing space, but I'm his boyfriend, not a separate part of his life. If he needs space, he can literally just say, "Babe, I've got a lot going on, I'm going to be quiet today but we're okay." That's all I need.

He agreed and said he'd work on communicating better.

The next day, he told me he'd call me after some meetings. The meetings were supposed to finish around Mid day. I didn't expect him to call exactly then because obviously things happen, but he didn't message me either.

Later that afternoon he told me he'd been insanely busy and exhausted, but said he was still going to call me. I gave him multiple opportunities to cancel because he was clearly tired. I even offered to talk while I was walking home so he wouldn't have to call later.

He insisted he'd call.

He didn't.

He eventually messaged around midnight saying he'd passed out and would call me in the morning, he didn't call in the morning lol.

This is the second time he's done this.

And that's what bothers me. It's not that he was tired or busy. I understand that. It's that he said he was going to do something, insisted he was going to do it, and then didn't communicate when he couldn't.

There's also the issue of actually seeing each other. We're only a five minutes apart and I've seen him once. I've told him I want him to initiate seeing me more because I don't want to feel like I'm constantly asking to see my own boyfriend.

He has said things like "I'll try to come see you tomorrow," but then nothing actually happens and I have to figure out whether he's coming or not.

And here's where I'm struggling.

He was in a relationship shortly before me (they broke up two weeks before we started talking) and from what he's told me, he used to put significantly more effort into physically seeing that guy — driving to see him (30min away) multiple dates (6/7) spending time together, etc all in the space of two months/they dated for two months.

I'm not saying I want to be treated exactly like his ex or that I want their relationship. I'm saying I know he's capable of making that effort, so I'm confused about why I'm currently struggling to get basic communication and quality time.

I genuinely care about him, and I know he's going through a lot. I'm not expecting perfection. But I've already communicated what I need, we've had a serious conversation about it, and then I'm seeing the same behaviour immediately afterwards.

Am I being unreasonable?

Is wanting your boyfriend to communicate when he's going to be unavailable, follow through when he says he'll call, and actually make an effort to see you considered basic relationship expectations?

And for the gay guys specifically: is this normal in gay relationships? Is there some dynamic around needing space/independence that I'm not understanding?

Because I'm starting to feel like I'm fighting for basic effort at the very beginning of a relationship, and I'm wondering whether I should give him more time because he's genuinely overwhelmed, or take this as a sign that we're simply not compatible.

I don't want someone who is available 24/7.

I just want to feel like I'm actually in a relationship with my boyfriend.

Are these troubles in love life normal ?

I know the caption sounds a bit crazy, but I’ve been feeling down cause of my dating situation.

I 20M have been always dreaming of committed monogamous relationship. I know some might say it’s naive or stupid or immature and that I should probably experiment, but I think I’d love to experience the so called “love”.

So my issues is that no matter how many guys I get in contact with only 5% end up talking with me after knowing I won’t sleep with them (instantly).

Then only 3% of those 5% end up going on a date with me.

Then with time I found out that the 3% actually don’t share the same views and they were just waiting for me to change mine and sleep with them.

This constant cycle of getting my hopes high and then being let down is kind of sad.

I’m nice, full of excitement and I’m kind. I like to draw and I love yapping and talking about various subjects.

I’m pretty I’d say. I’m even scared to post pics of how pretty I get called. I’m blessed down stairs bellow if you know what I mean. I just can’t wrap my head around the fact that my love life is going south. It feels like I’m wasting my best years.

Is it normal to get a boner from small forms of romance?

Everytime I have an encounter with a guy whom I think is cute, or who flirts with me or gives me wrong eye contact, I feel my dick start to rise even a little bit or like one time I went to ask a hot guy for his instagram and the conversation was really good but I had to literally hide the boner I got. Due to past experiences I don’t think it’s best to make certain decisions when I’m horny, but I don’t know how to control it. Sometimes I’m not even that horny but small situations give me boners so easily and I’m worried, because I think I should be able to have a small flirty conversation before rocking a full boner. I’m not even thinking about sex in the situations I just don’t get it

How to keep good care of a dildo?

Silicon, of course.

Besides washing it and use a towel to dry it a bit:

- How long does it take to dry itself?

- Can I just put it back in the same box, or should I put it in a plastic bag first to keep it safe?

- Even if something happens, is washing before use enough?

The box question is because I want to keep it in a drawer, hidden away. I still live at home with my parents, so I want to avoid them discovering it. Still, I'd like to prevent it getting stained/infected or something.
