SEX

I’ve (f25) been in a relationship with my bf (m28) for a little over 2 years now. We moved together a year ago, got a flat together and he proposed to me this summer. I said yes and it was one of the best days of my life. I love him very much and I am very compatible with him, except one little thing..
Before we had sex for the first time, he opened up to me and told me how his ex gf left him because of his size. So he went through this already and it caused him serious self esteem problems. I can’t do this to him again. at first it wasn’t so bad, since we were both discovering our bodies and he used to stimulate my mind before everything else, which led me to actually enjoy the sex we had. But as it is normal, that excitement won’t last forever and now I am lacking and craving the sex I had with my ex partners. I can’t even get wet anymore, it’s like my vagina doesn’t even know what penetration feels like. The little penetration that I get is dry and hurts, unless we use lube. I am just tired of faking enjoying myself, but can’ do anything about it. I love him too much for this to be a dealbreaker, but I really don’t know what to do. Is this what my future sex life will be from now on?

My boyfriend and I are each others firsts. We've only been dating for a few months but have really clicked. We usually get to see each other once or twice a week. The problem is, sometimes he finishes within about 7 minutes. I have absolutely no problem with this. I actually think it's kind of flattering. He tends to apologize for it, and I hate him feeling insecure over something natural. Especially because he more than "makes up" for it. My question is: is there anything I could say next time it happens to make him feel better?

I am 25F I've been seeing a guy 27M who has been an acquaintance for a few years. We have already had sex, it's really good, I give him oral all the time as I really enjoy doing so but he is desperate to go down on me and I'm embarrassed, I don't want to be super drunk in order for him to do that, I just want to feel comfortable. I am not a prude, I am a sexual person but I worry about; do men think about women looking bad in angles? How we taste? I feel like there will be more pressure for me to orgasm and that I don't have control of situation, which is usually how I enjoy sex.

Im a girl and Im straight. Ever since I was a kid and I'd find my dad's or my friends' dads porn magazines and videos, I just found the naked girls super hot. Since I was so young, I don't think it was a "Whoa I'd like to look like that and have guys attracted to me" thing because I was literally in primary school and thought sex meant people kissing while being naked, but rather a "Damn. Hot body" thing. I just think female bodies are very attractive, however I've never actually been attracted to a girl before. What's going on?

RELATIONSHIP

I have been dating my boyfriend for almost three years, but one issue keeps me wondering if it’s been genuine or not. From day one he has had huge issues with his phone. If I even glanced over he used to flip out. It’s not so bad anymore but I still am unable to check things out when situations warrant it. On the other hand he uses my phone like it’s his own, and since he is much larger than me I am really unable to do anything about it.
Thoughts ??

I've been dating my girlfriend for almost 6 years. It's long distance but we've had ideas about a future together. I never had a big desire to get married but I would do it for her. Having a kid has been a dream of hers since I met her and recently I've been seriously considering my position and I cant think of any reason I would want to have a kid. I told her this last night and we both broke down. She had been under the impression that I was down for everything and was understandably upset when I told her. She told me she still wanted to stay together but if there came a day I was 100% sure I didnt want kids. I left a possibility of changing my mind because ive changed a lot since I met her and was always hoping my position on this would change too. But now I feel like I'm in charge of deciding when this relationship ends. It was always my biggest fear that we would end up in a situation where she leaves me because I didn't want to have kids and now I'm the one who will have to decide whether or not this relationship will continue. Not even sure I'm asking for advice I just wanted other people's takes on how much of a piece of shit I am.

I’m tired of my fiancé making me set alarms for him to wake up in time for work. And every time I set an alarm and go upstairs to wake him up, he gets pissed at me. So then he will make me set another alarm so he can “have ten more minutes”. Mind you, I’m also busy with our three year old and soon to be newborn coming any time now, cooking, and cleaning. It’s extremely stressful for me to have the job of waking him up as well as everything else. But yet he always tells me he hates it when I try to act like his mother? I wish he would get an actual alarm clock. I finally put my foot down today and said it’s not my responsibility and he said “Okay. I guess I’ll just keep being late for work and lose my job then.” Like it would be my fault. No, it would be his right?

Asked him(44m) to marry me(39f) last night. He said absolutely not then proceeded to get upset when I wasn't "in the mood".I was so vulnerable and honest. I wasn't upset when he said absolutely not but a discussion would have been nice. Then when I wasn't being the fun one on a Friday night because I didn't want to do it, doors got slammed, there was yelling etc. I slept alone and feel so hurt. How do we move past this?

PARTENING

I put parental controls on my teens iPhone, blocking certain apps and websites. Problem is: she’s still somehow accessing them! How?! I’m so confused?

as we prepare to bring a child into our family, MIL has said that regardless of what anyone says or wants, she will be coming to live in our home for 2-3 weeks to take care of the child and her daughter, and insists that this is a completely normal thing that every mother does with their daughter. I’ve never heard this, and neither have the women in my life that I’ve asked, and while I voiced that I was thankful for any help being offered with doing the dishes, laundry, etc (things she mentioned), what she was describing didn’t sit right with me. I’ve always looked forward to this time in our lives and being able to cherish the time with my wife and take care of her, and I pointed out that if my mom were to forcibly come live with us regardless of what my wife or I say to come help with things, that wouldn’t fly. Does this sound normal in your experience?

Should I correct my almost 8 year old son who over talks? Last year his teacher would reach out to us every few months to let us know that he would talk too much in class and sometimes disturb others and that she had resulted to ignoring him when he talks. I also heard the same complaint from my father and I’ve been noticing he does it when he’s around other people. Although he has gotten a lot better in the past few months he still over talks and when I try to bring it up he usually closes his ears and tries to run away. Should I let it go or talk to him about it?

I was at the park with my 3 year old and my 2 month old strapped to my chest. He had fallen asleep with his pacifier in his mouth. He spits it out when he’s ready and he might fall asleep with the pacifier maybe once a day. None of that a total stranger would know, but she came up to me anyway to tell me to take the pacifier out of his mouth. After I told her it is fine, she kept bothering me about it. What really irks me is that she ended up leaving her own child in the park to play alone. So what inspired her to be “supermom” and judgy with me?

WORK

I have a large technical presentation that contains many detailed information and many various topics. I don’t think I can do a good job presenting this in person as there is so much context and will take minimum 1.5 hours to 2 hours. Is it rude to let the client know I can’t make the F2F and will need to attend virtually?

I don't know if I made the right choice. I was a 3rd year apprentice millwright at local 2158 and I chose to leave about 3 months ago and now work for the army Corp of engineers. Each job has their pros and cons but on a personal level I feel like I turned my back to the union and started all over. I could still go back if I wanted to and finish out my apprenticeship and become a journeyman but I'll lose my government job if I do with unknown possibility of going back. I'm just torn and I don't know if I've made the right decision or if I'm just jumping to conclusions too soon because I'm not making the same money.

I'm in the middle of a job hunt. I've had interviews with a few different companies. Currently a strong candidate for a less desirable role. If they come to me wanting to offer me a job, but I'm still scouting all possible options, what are some things I could say to let them know I still *might* be interested, but am waiting to hear back from others?
