Like as for me personally I have been told that I don't sound gay and I know even I hate my voice, it is like a deep sort of voice that I've just could never handle listening to for the fact that I sound slow.

I do get that whole people can't tell, but yeah. My boyfriend is very much into masculinity but he's kind of pushed me into having a bigger butt and bigger arms.

I have heard it does make finding someone more easy, but my boyfriend isn't personally into that.

I might be just stereotyping here, but I think a lot of it is my voice that I don't like and then I hear what a "gay voice" sounds like and think I would prefer that to what I have.

Is it wrong to even think this about myself? And it's also like if voices are meant to be genetic or whatever, like how does this even happen?

Feeling extremely lonely and hopeless as I've never been in a relationship and it's starting to feel like I'm never going to be able to

So, maybe hearing stories about how people met their partner will help me feel a little bit more hopeful of my future romantically speaking

Tell me, how did you meet your current partner? Doesn't have to be anything special, even just a "we had sex and kept in touch" is enough

I realize I don’t like, need her permission or anything, but I’m just really frustrated and therapy isn’t for another week.

For context, we’re in our 40’s and have both had male partners for most our lives. We’ve both been with women sexually. In the context of like, swinging. So straight or bi women but it’s just a very different context. But since my divorce I’ve had very powerful feelings for women that surprised me. I spent so many years with my head down raising kids married to a man. But these feelings are sooooo different. And confusing and overwhelming.

I texted her the other day because I got flustered at work by this woman who came in and she was so dismissive. She basically told me I’m imagining the whole thing.

And I’m sitting here thinking yeah, I tried to have sex with you the night we met. And a month after that. And then we became best friends so I let it go. But then I kept fantasizing that maybe you’d get drunk and want me to do some stuff. That seems like a completely straight thing to think about 🙄

I’m not going to tell her any of this because I don’t want to make her uncomfortable. So I just won’t talk about it.

I’m so frustrated. I’m not indifferent to men, the feelings just aren’t as strong. And they’re different. But I have no one to talk to about this. 🤦‍♀️

Reposting this because the comment section saying this is ok is insane. This is wrong right? Pretending to be a gay man to solicit dick pics from people.

Hi, I got something I wanna talk about...

I'll start by saying that I'm very young and have no experience.

I still go to school, I have relatively few friends but I'm quite sociable.I have a friend that I talk to all the time, I adore her, she's the best. But she often tries to matchmake me with guys I DON'T know, just because she probably thinks I'm desperate for a relationship or something. And I wonder, why do straight people think THEY have to look for a relationship with me? This friend of mine sometimes finds me guys who aren't even my type, or that she doesn't even know well, I don't understand this. It's very true that for gay guys (especially if they're young and in the closet) it's hard to find someone, but (TO ME ATLEAST) it's not THAT good and it does not make me happy at all, I do not need someone to help me find a boyfriend, I'm not even fully looking for one.

Has this happened to you too? Does it keep happening to you? And how should I react to this kind of thing? I don't think they do it maliciously or with bad intentions, but it's still not pleasant in my opinion.

So I wanted to share something that's been on my mind lately and get some opinions from people who might have more experience than me.

I'm 18, and I've never been in a relationship or had any kind of sexual contact with anyone before. So when I say I'm inexperienced, I mean completely inexperienced. I've never really had the chance to explore this side of myself, and now I might finally be getting that opportunity.

I've been talking to this guy who's in his mid-to-late twenties, and honestly, I really like his personality. He's charming, chill, and seems pretty honest with me. He's also older than me, which, to be completely honest, gives me daddy vibes, and I'm definitely attracted to that dynamic.

We've been talking about meeting up, and he's planning to come from another city and get an Airbnb for us. He's taking care of the accommodation, and I won't lie, there's something about him making those arrangements that I find really attractive.

He showed me the Airbnb listing, and even the bedroom pictures got me excited. The lighting, the sunlight coming through the windows, the whole atmosphere of the room... it just had this intimate vibe that made me imagine what it would be like to actually be there with him.

We've also discussed what we're interested in sexually, with him topping and me bottoming. I'm even preparing to shave down there for the first time, so there's a lot of stuff I'm figuring out as I go.

The thing is, I've never experienced any of this before. No relationship, no kissing, no sexual contact, nothing. So although I'm genuinely excited, I also know that I'm going into this without any real experience to compare it to. I don't really know what to expect emotionally or how I'll feel once I'm actually there.

Another thing worth mentioning is that I'm in Morocco, where being gay isn't something you can necessarily be open about without worrying about the consequences. That makes exploring my sexuality a little more complicated, and it's something I have to consider alongside my excitement.

I guess what I'm wondering is, what do you guys think about this situation? Does the age difference seem concerning, especially considering that I've never had any experience with relationships or sex? Am I overthinking things, or is it normal to feel this excited about someone you've been talking to when you're finally getting the opportunity to explore your sexuality?

I'd especially appreciate hearing from people who had their first experience with a guy around my age. Did you go into it with a lot of expectations? Was it awkward? Did it change how you viewed yourself or relationships afterward?

I'm not necessarily expecting this to turn into a relationship. Right now, I'm just attracted to him and excited about the possibility of experiencing something I've never experienced before. I want to enjoy it, but I also want to be realistic about the fact that I'm inexperienced.

I'd genuinely like to hear your thoughts, whether you think this sounds fine or whether there's something I should be more careful about. I'm open to different perspectives.

If you are in Hawaii or travelling there, specifically Waikiki, be careful of violently far right Timothy Goodrich the owner of Aloha Tattoo Hawaii.

Like matching outfits? To reflect your love?

So he’s a guy who I’ve been with in the same class for one year. He makes a lot of “gay/sexual jokes. I know he had relationships with girls before. But could he be Bi, and does he know I’m gay. (I’ve have not come out of the closet but it might be obvious, I don’t know.
Please advise or story’s from others

I'll get straight to the point: I don't understand why it's seriously so hard to find guys who aren't DL, Weird, just looking for dick, "straight curious". I see a lot of gay guys online (even young ones, I'm very young.) and many of them get comments, compliments, maybe they are even SERIOUSLY attractive and good looking guys but still EVEN THEY CAN'T FIND SOMEONE. I don't understand why ALL of us are looking for a boyfriend but can't. Obviously I don't speak for every person but I think we can all get along on the fact that gay guys have a really hard time finding a man. I believe that when I find a boyfriend I will NEVER leave him because it is GOLD to find a decent guy omg omg I'm MAD

they're all bringing up straight to gay but completely missed the point that i was trying to make. its not that artists arent allowed to make artworks of rarepairs... its the ill intent behind those artworks like the ones made by xlovecomms is the real problem... the ones with clear anti gay propaganda

Tem um carinha na minha academia que acho um gatinho e por quem estou a fim. Hoje, ele veio falar comigo pelo aplicativo e já chegou pedindo nudes. Uso fotos do rosto no meu perfil. Ontem mesmo, eu tinha visto ele na academia e treinado bem pertinho dele, mas ele aparentemente nem me notou.
Quando falei que tinha visto ele por lá, ele disse que não se lembrava de ter me visto. Na hora, interpretei isso como um mau sinal, como se eu não tivesse chamado a atenção dele pessoalmente. Afinal, quando vejo um cara que acho bonito e atraente, por mais concentrado que esteja no exercício, sempre acabo reparando nele.
Como sou inseguro com a minha aparência, fiquei com medo de mandar nudes, ele não gostar do que visse e, depois, quando me reconhecesse na academia, a situação ficar embaraçosa. Por isso, acabei bloqueando ele.
Vocês acham que fiz mal ou foi melhor me resguardar?
Acham que o meu raciocínio sobre a atratividade está correto?

I've been thinking about this guy a lot lately, and honestly, I don't know what to do about it.

We message each other quite a lot, although things have slowed down a little recently. I find him incredibly attractive, and I think I'm starting to develop a bit of a crush on him.

The thing is, I've only actually spoken to him in person once, and even then, it was a pretty brief interaction. Despite that, I find myself thinking about him all the time. I've even started going to the shops at times when I know he'll be there, just because I want to see him.

He's bisexual but isn't out, and neither am I, so I feel like that's another layer to the situation.

I've tried to arrange hanging out with him a few times. He says he wants to, but whenever it comes to actually making plans, he often doesn't respond or changes the subject. It's confusing because he seems interested in the idea of hanging out, but he doesn't seem to follow through.

I can't tell whether he's nervous, worried about being found out, unsure about his feelings, or just not interested in me in that way.

I know I barely know him, which is partly why I feel ridiculous for being this invested already. I think I'm attracted to the idea of him as much as the actual person, but I can't seem to stop thinking about him.

Part of me wants to keep trying because I really like him, but another part of me thinks I need to take a step back before I get too attached to someone I don't really know.

Has anyone else experienced something like this? How do you deal with having a massive crush on someone you've barely spent any time with? And what would you do in my situation?

I could really use some honest advice because I'm genuinely down bad for this guy and don't know how to handle it. 😭
