is being subscribed to onlyfans cheating? Anonymous 120534[Reply]

back in dec 24, i found some messages on my bfs phone from a sex worker on reddit that he sought out. the way the messages were made it seem like it wasnt the first time he had done something like this, so since then i had been suspicious that maybe this was a constant thing for him.
i then found through an apple payment that he paid someone for something on of, but i couldnt get into his account, until today.
i finally got in his account and saw he was subscribed to multiple workers and also was talking to them. ik obviously for them, thats literally their job, to talk to people, but the way some of the conversations went made me feel hurt.
i want to also add that, as long as it isnt an addiction, i dont care if he watches porn, i do too. my problem is the fact he is paying a lot of money for it and the conversations hes had with some of them talking about his interests, recommending them music, etc. stuff that feels personal.
i feel like its borderline cheating, but at the same time i dont know. i’ve never been in a situation like this and don’t really know how to feel nor what to do. it just also sucks because lately things between us have been stagnant and stressful, just from things happening to us separately, it isnt helping us be our full selfs atm, so adding this really makes everything feel even worse.
he told me he wants to be with me, and i want to work it out, but at what cost?

If you were actually sorry he just wouldn't have done this in the first place.
The only thing he's sorry about is that he got caught.

it’s even worse than cheating cos he’s spending money for YOUR presents and treats on another woman. if he has disposable income why the fuck isn’t he spending it on you?

This. Why can’t he confide in op. Paying for only fans is pretty pathetic. Like at least he’s not cheating and bringing disease . He should be ok on the free porn pass.

Aw… you are so sweet. Thank you!! I don't have it yet though! I was just good at getting good grades so I decided to stick with doing school. But I wouldn't recommend a PhD unless you are already extremely motivated to do independent research, and that is often difficult to gauge for a college graduate.

>>120693
The relationship is new but these are the biggest things: He's extremely intelligent, smarter than me, has a graduate degree, was crushing on me for years online, pursued me, writes me stories, committed to me instantly, buys me little gifts, predicts me well, responds instantly, already booked a flight to see me, listens and remembers, feels guilty when something hurts me and changes, makes me unbelievably horny, and just has an air of superiority. Obviously it's the honeymoon phase but I think these all are really great signs and I wasn't experiencing most of this stuff in my past relationships.

I feel so ashamed every time I like someone and I have never had a boyfriend. I have never been asked out by a moid. I thought that once I entered later teenagehood, that these relationships would be thrown at me inevitably. However, the only people that have asked me out were other women and for the most part, none of them I wanted to be with. I have tried to make subtle advances on guys before even though I dislike doing it because I'm a freak with aspergers and can't handle myself well, but none of them have really reciprocated in a meaningful way.
There's a coworker I have at my job who is one year younger than me and I can't stop myself from thinking about him. He's not someone outstandingly unachievable and attractive, he's on the shorter side (under 5'10) but his face is so fucking beautiful, I can't even look at him unless we're talking. I hate myself so badly for liking him, yet I can't help myself from thinking about when the next time will be that I'll get to talk to him, when I'll get to see him, what he's doing.
I'd like to think I'm not super unattractive, maybe cripplingly average instead and perhaps it's just my lack of social skills that has done me in when it comes to relationships. I have received compliments from guys before (mostly older), have even been catcalled. I'm pretty underdeveloped for my age I guess, I'm shorter than average and underweight. I've been told I seem like I'm a very awkward person and hard to talk to before by a guy as well. I used to get made fun of a lot when I was younger but I think I grew out of a lot of the stuff I got made fun of for after puberty.
Despite that, I still don't have a boyfriend while all the other girls my age have boyfriends. I don't even have any irl friends as I was very truant in school and ended up being transferred to an online program (though that's another conversation), so I lost all the ones I did sort of have, yet I felt like they were always only friends with me out of pity. I always feel so terribly guilty and horrible every time I begin to like someone, like I've telepathically molested him just by having feelings for him. I can't ever shake this feeling of shame that makes me extremely depressed and I just end up convincing myself I don't stand a chance.
A lot of the time I tell myself that it's not worth it because it'll end up being more trouble than it's worth and that I'm too asocial and weird to be a good girlfriend to anyone. I always feePost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Thank you for your advice. To be honest, I don't have any female figures in my life that I can talk to readily. I don't have any female friends at all anymore, even online, though I desperately want them. I feel very shy when I talk to other girls and almost afraid but I desire them in my life. I'm still actively trying to find another girl/girls, preferably being like the friends I had before.
As for the stuff about social cues, I think I get by just barely by mimicking what I see other people do, however there will be points where too much of myself slips out and I embarrass myself. I've done this countless times, even with the coworker mentioned. It's like I just start saying whatever comes to my mind to fill the silence without thinking.
About the gym and dance classes, I think it's a particularly good idea. I get wound up a lot and I find that repetitive movements or exercise helps, though I'm a bit too nervous to approach stuff like a gym yet. I used to bike a lot but I kept getting into weird ass encounters with people (like people yelling bizarre shit at me from their cars) and it got to a point to where I just didn't want to do it anymore.

I also struggled a lot with those feelings of shame. I'd compare myself with some ideal version of me that had used every opportunity, done everything right, whatever. The perfect me. And I'd think: "I deserve nothing, because I failed to become that person." That's not what life is, though. Everybody could have done better. It's about learning from your mistakes and improving little by little–building momentum in the right direction. You aren't undeserving of a love because you're imperfect at 19 years old. I can't really help you with social awkwardness, but I'll second the recommendation of getting some exercise. The body controls the mind more than the mind controls the body, so get yourself some feelgod chemicals that way and you'll probably feel a lot better about this crush.

The diagnosis demi- and fraysexual are sad to me. Both seem like they are born out of trauma from how society handles heteronormative love.
The latter is, as >>120251 pointed out, a justification for a trauma response. It's fine to be this way, all ways of living with and without love and sex are fine, but it's not an identity. It's a mode of dating. You are not discriminated against for hitting and quitting lol.
Demisexual, on the other hand, is a label I myself found interesting in my tumblr days. I honestly now suspect I'm just autistic, and/or that I (prefer to) develop sexual feelings after I have learned I can trust someone due to trauma. It's something I did get flack for from jocks at college or whatever, but for the most part, too, this is not a trait people get discriminated for.If anything, demisexuality is rewarded socially because you are not 'loose'.

Anonymous 120363

>>120362
One thing I've always found frustrating about the term demisexual is that it by definition, by people who identify as demisexual, means someone who is only able to be attracted if they've developed a prior friendship… which is fine and all, I don't consider it a sexual orientation, but if you feel that describes how you feel love, good for you…

But the term demisexual is then pushed, by various sex-positive weirdos onto any woman who says she's not interested in FWB/ONS/hookup/casual dating/whatever… The reason I'm no into one night stands is not because I need to be friends first before I can be sexually attracted, its because I need to love someone and they need to love me back… But this weirdly specific term demisexual which focuses on platonic feelings is pushed onto people like me. And honestly, when some people get the "have you considered you might be demisexual" shtick, they buy in, and they remodel their identity and their internal conception about how they form love and fall in love around this weird, arbitrary term.

If "I need to be friends first" describes your falling-in-love style, whatever, but why is "have you considered your sexuality is I-need-to-be-friends-first" pushed onto every person who wants love and not fucking these days.

Anonymous 120581

>yeah i uhh, i fuck people and then lose interest when they start to love me
This is a highly stereotypical male sexual archetype. It is extremely common to see women identify this male archetype with trauma in romance fiction leads so that the heroine has the ability to heal that trauma to reform and win over the rakehell hero into a heckin wholesome monogamous future father. When in reality it is just pure misogyny and narcissism with no traumatic root. I do not think it is necessary to say that the four or five women on this planet who identify with that archetype are necessarily better than that. It is entirely possible that they are just narcissists too.

Are lesbian relationships more empathetic and loving than het ones? Anonymous 119649[Reply]

Bisexual nona here, since being pinkpilled and observing male behavior ive wondered if lesbian relationships are more kind and understanding than heterosexual ones. It seems like women(myself included) to prioritize bonding and emotional intimacy and a deep bond.
(talked to moids before never gotten to even dating just some interest ig and self inserted into f4f fanfic and have sexual/romantic feelings for other women.so i have no experience just wanted to put that out there.)

Yeah, these statistics are only true because a het woman coming to and realizing that she's being abused by her boyfriend/husband in any way is a series of wild fucking mental gymnastics. Doesn't mean they're not being abused.

After centuries of women's abuse at the hands of men (especially a man that has the title of husband) being consistently excused, trivialized, systematized, and every other fucking thing, I'd be shocked if het women WEREN'T making excuses for their shitty boyfriends and husbands. We all know a story of a woman who went against her male partner and ended up dead or ruined.

You are taking something so badly made up out of your ass that I literally can't even understand what you are talking about.
I specified in the end that the key problem is woman to woman bias of allyship, there is too much assumption of similarity between women. And because of that there is less willingness to actually deal with issues arising from differences.

i think lesbian relationships struggle because there's a little bit of figuring yourself out that each one is typically going through. a good chunk of the lesbians i know are "trying" to be a lesbian like at a fitting room or some shit like that, rather than trying to make a relationship work. it's definitely possible, i know multiple lesbians (including single and monogamous, no poly) who have had wonderful and fulfilling relationships.
if you want to be in a relationship with a girl, you can make it work if you find a girl who is willing to make it work and also figure it out. the playbook for lesbian relationships is kinda… non-existent imo. the het playbook has been around for literally forever, so you'll have to be more flexible with lesbians. but because the pool to pick a lesbian partner from is smaller, it's gonna be harder to find someone.

best of luck nona, i strongly suggest you live life to make it work for you and at some point you'll meet someone who you can make a life together with. keyword MAKE.
