Polls: Dating

28F, I’ve been single for 5 years. I dated someone briefly for a few months when I was 23 & I felt like I was settling with him which is why I’m glad things ended. He knew he was the first guy I steadily saw but wasn’t romantic with me, he knew what I expected on Valentine’s Day (the cliche stuff). Instead he takes us out to dinner & while he did take pay for most things/paid to take me on a cruise for his bday vacation I just felt like he wasn’t into me enough. That’s one example but he was too eager to have sex (wasn’t willing to wait for marriage) & that was another turn off. I’ve been single since bc I’d rather be alone vs feel I’m with someone mediocre. I am convinced I’m going to end up alone considering no one better has come around since

2 guy friends, a possibility of dating?

Both guys I've known online for 2 years, we talk on and off, with our good and bad weeks. I've met them eavh individually once, very different kind of days out and different guys.

Number (1) and I share a lot in common its almost strange. We share the same values and he's very mature. I can see something long-term with him. The only downside is that the differences we do have we argue over. He also has autism which means that there are constant communication issues. I feel like we're both very submissive people but that could be potentially comforting. There was no pfp when I started talking to him, so I talked to him for the conversation. In some ways I find him attractive, but it's 50/50.

Number (2) and I share almost nothing in common, although we seem to be able to communicate very easily. Once talking we are both there for each other emotionally and are passionate about our ideas. The downside with him is that I feel I'm constantly struggling to make conversation as it revolves around him. If a relationship were to evolve it would be short term. He is more dominant than myself. I started talking to him originally because he was attractive.

So my total body count is 11 and I'm 26:
- lost my vcard at 18
- (19 years old) about 11 months later no2 and two months after no3
- (20 years old) 7 months later no4, 7 months later no5
- (21 years old) 2 months later No6, 2 months later no7, no8 (same week), two weeks later no9, two weeks later no10 (went out for two weeks), two weeks later no11
- (22-26) been out with no one.

I've been a bit nervous over it, but then again I remember all my friends at the time who had a different guy every weekend sometimes even 3/4 different guys in the same week, so that makes me feel better about myself.

Like say you cancel a date, and he doesn't try to chase you after that, or you don't return his texts, and he stops trying to text you. Or, he's really quiet during the date, and looks unimpressed by you. Does that make you feel insecure and make you try to have sex with him to try and prove yourself to him that you're a caring individual and not a bad, distant person?

My boyfriend takes such good pride in cheating on every ex he had, him and his dad are very similar in that department I court him on a couple times texting other woman and I pushed it to on side for the simple fact he would be homeless if I sent him away he has a son and doesn't see him (his ex will not let him he has tried to see him) I really do love him and I would miss him a lot he has told me he's done and has give me no reason to believe other wise

I live in a studio apartment. It’s a room next to the landlords home. I have to pass by her backyard to enter & exit my studio. Things were great when she lived alone now her daughter around my age moved in permanently with her as she broke up with her boyfriend. She has 4 kids & now building a tiny studio for her. When the landlord isn’t home she is bringing her boyfriend same as I do. Our bfs arrive at the same time I assume after work, so it’s uncomfortable for boyfriend visit me now as they are outside always & weird to pass by them. It’s only easy for boyfriend visit me super late when they are asleep. It’s kinda weird two girls bringing bfs home. I miss my privacy i used to have alone with my boyfriend. Also the room they are building for her the door is right next to my door now when I enter. Even tho her boyfriend visits daily now or living here, and my boyfriend visits weekly only or every other week, it’s giving me more stress her boyfriend arrives same time mine does too. They have similar color car too which is weird and he steals my and his parking spots so we now have to park super far. I plan move out in 5-7 months but plan tell owner in 3 months I’ll be moving out. I have no kitchen, also I plan have baby this year, so I need a bigger place & windows & kitchen & be alone with boyfriend. Not live with other girl. Not live anymore in owners backyard but have a private place to live. Maybe a Duplex or real apartment. Now I kinda understand why landlords want to rent studios only to single men that work all day & no girls. Lol.

I am teaching ski at a ski resort and we are quite a big group of young people working here seasonally, some I know some I don’t. Met this very cute guy and there was immediately something between us, we exchanged numbers and started hanging out a lot just the two of us for like a week. There were cuddles and intimate moments but never sex as I wanted to get to know him better first. Luckily a friend who knows him saw us together and called me aside after about a week, to tell me that he is in a relationship, with a girl she knows. I feel really bad about it but there was no way I could have known before. Luckily I didn’t sleep with him. Do you consider this as cheating, do I have to fear that people will tell her he cheated on her with me?
