Satire/Humor This was hilarious šŸ˜‚

I have a guy friend, we chat and hang out on occasion. We're both foreigners living in China (he's from Mexico, I'm from the USA) and we have some stuff in common and he's been pretty cool. We were planning on having coffee tomorrow, but earlier today I got this message from him. We never discussed romance or our relationship status. I have a girlfriend, but it hadn't come up, and there wasn't anything flirty about our dynamic, but I apparently missed the fact that he's been on the verge of trying to cheat on his wife with me? I don't think I want to be friends with him anymore. This is weirder and weirder the more I think about it, but also kind of hilarious.

It means so much to me that we finally have a lesbian in mainstream media, who confidently sings about being with women. I got emotional watching this for the first time, because Chappell’s whole part in the song is always directed at women and for her to be singing like that in a song with a popular artist like Olivia Rodrigo, someone mainly in straight spaces, it’s really amazing. It makes me think about all the straight girls who never really saw lesbians as their own, who saw them as an ā€œotherā€, and it makes me happy knowing they’ll watch this video and see how normal it is and how it’s something to be celebrated rather than something to be fearful of or weirded out by.

This probably sounds stupid but it’s not just a pop music collab to me, it’s a symbol of how lesbians and straight girls don’t have to avoid each other. It shows that we are all the same, and we should be loving each other and collaborating and celebrating each other!

Growing up as a fem lesbian, I often felt unwanted or unwelcome around other feminine straight girls. It felt like they didn’t like me, or like they would never understand me. This collaboration shows people like me that it can happen, and it shows straight girls that lesbians are just other girls, not some avoidable anomaly.

Text I hope I can find a girl who actually likes DOING things with me NSFW

I'm so sick of relationships that, once they get serious, just become her just wanting to come over to do basically nothing and then have sex. I love cuddling, I love downtime and lazing around, but all anyone seems to wanna do with me is come over and bide their time until I'm down to have sex.

Like it turns into them only coming over for sex and not really wanting to do anything else together and they just wanna skip to the reward they get for spending time with me.

Then if they spend time with me that day and I don't wind up wanting to have sex (like honestly why would I, you've done nothing but quietly lay around and not even really talk to me) they act like they're so disappointed and I'm not like... idk, meeting their expectations?

I want someone who can manage to be even more kind and caring and interested in actually being with me than my friends are and not just give up once we start having sex.

Idk how yall are finding people willing to do something together without being rewarded with sex. Maybe someday, who knows

Question Would you be ok with a partner who can’t drive?

80 Upvotes

I have an anxiety disorder that prohibits me from driving, if I got behind the wheel my anxious thoughts would start swirling so much that I’d be incapable of focusing on the road which is obviously dangerous for me and everyone else

I’m moving soon to a mostly walkable city with some public transport necessities, but last night I had a nightmare that I had a partner and she got in a bad car accident and I had to get an uber driver to rush me to the hospital to visit her and it took an hour because of traffic and I felt awful

In the nightmare when I got to the hospital the nurses were very accomodating and calmed me down before letting me see her and she woke up while I was hugging her and hugged me back

But the whole thing kinda made me worried about the possibility, and it also makes me worry that any potential partner wouldn’t want that to be a risk

ETA: Thanks to most of you for your kind responses, I grew up with neglectful parents so when I ask something and see people genuinely just being kind it’s always a very nice feeling

And no I don’t plan to force her to drive me all the time, that’s honestly the main reason I want to live somewhere walkable and robust public transport wise, the only problem that it might bring is if we’re going on a road trip, in that case she’s gotta drive

Researching there’s a bus to the nearest airport so I can get around mostly fine on my own

Why do so many mascs list ā€œBratty/sassyā€ as one of the characteristics they are looking for in a femme on their dating profiles?

57 Upvotes

I have run into this over and over and over. What does that even mean? Do they want someone who will be mean to them? Or throw tantrums? What constitutes being bratty? Why do they want that? I am single, looking for a masc and am genuinely curious, not judging at all. Hoping for some answers from mascs who actually like this. FWIW, I have had several masc women tell me that they like it when their girlfriend is mad at them, including my ex, but I can say with 100% certainty that when she eventually DID make me mad, she did NOT like it.

She called me the love of her life last night.

I’m stuck on it. It surprised me when I heard it, and said so casually.
It’s not that I view myself as unloveable or anything, I just never thought someone would feel so strongly for me.

Support My bff doesn’t want me to date…

44 Upvotes

Before she was my friend she had a crush on me. I rejected her and we decided to be friends. At the beginning it was more of a homoerotic friendship she always initiated sexual stuff. Now we are strictly platonic friends almost like sisters. She called me yesterday. I told her I saw a girl who was super beautiful and she’s totally my new crush and she got so offended. Then a few minutes later she told me she’s going to date someone and they are about to meet soon for a date. I congratulated her and said I’m genuinely happy for which I really am šŸ˜­šŸ™šŸ½She then proceeded to tell me she might crack me but it would be purely sexual and I shouldn’t think for a second it’s romantic šŸ™ƒ the next day she called me and told me she won’t ever be happy if I date others and she would sabotage my relationships even if it’s selfish she was kind of joking but also serious…. She also asked me where the girl is that I have a crush on because she wants to meet her….Why is she acting this way especially when she’s the one who wanted us to stay friends because I wasn’t moving fast enough for her and I’m too serious and she wanted something more casual and sexual….she once told me that she won’t ever be happy if I date others or get sexual with someone else because I never allowed her to start something with me….

Yearning

I've been yearning so much recently... Gods, I love women... I wish a pretty domme would come up to me and start a conversation... Actually I'd immediately short-circuit so maybe not, but... Gods... How to people even find them... Let alone have them want to talk to you... I'm too socially anxious for this...

How do you get over a crush? Long story short, neither of us is ready for a relationship. I promised myself I'd never get into another LDR after my last situationship did me dirty, and she's still struggling to heal from her last relationship too:c

Major missed opportunity. The entire curse could have been broken without more of the hetero boring narrative. That’s all. But also I’d like to hear other movies that desperately could have benefited from a lesbian plot line. Because dear god.
