No, she made it very clear before that this would just be a one-night-stand and that we would likely never see each other again. She was very upfront about it and she really made sure I was okay with this and I did not felt pressured into it, which was very nice. But I wanted to know what it was like, so I was okay with it. I do not regret it. I mean, now I know.

I should apparently go see a doctor because (spoilered for anatomical details, I hope it is still okay for Dakka)

my foreskin is a bit too tight and therefore I cannot retract it or else it gets painful.
The sex was… okay, I guess, but somehow I enjoyed just cuddling after it much, much more.

Phimosis can normally be treated with prescribed topical steroids, or stretching exercises. Some people require surgery, but that's far from the normal procedure. I also have retraction problems I won't go into on Dakka, but last I went to the doctor about it my life was too stressful to actually start the steroid cream course, so now, a few years on, I need to remember to bring it up again with my current doctor. It's not a debilitating condition, though, and the foreskin doesn't need to be retracted, but it might be easier to get it treated in the long run, as it can lead to problems with properly cleaning your Manwurst.

Same here. I am quite disinterested in sex for its own sake, actually. Not to the point of being asexual, but finding a decent person to stay with, who I share interests with, is a quintillion times more important.

so much this. I hate how realitionships these days seem to be sex+ some. It should be the opposite. I see no point in being withsome just bacasue you want to bonk.
In a typical attempt from life to stop me being happy, I'm going out with someone in an hour and twenty mins, so forty minutes ago my body suddenly decided that the takeaway I had last night actually disagrees with me, despite it never having done so the tens of times I've ordered the same thing from the same place in the past.
The Loperamide I took has had about half an hour to kick in, so I'm hoping it keeps everything at bay, but I've been sat on the toilet since noon expelling hellspawn from my backside. Always a fun thing to be doing before going out with someone.

personally, I cannot believe ( from your self depreciating comedy) that you are actually going out avatar! I hope all goes well, maybe the prepariatory ring of fire is a good harbinger I myself have a hawt girl interested atm through no effort on my behalf. It's very affirming .

Thanks. Are not steroids supposed to be something for body-builders or something? Do they have any kind of possible side-effect?
How did your date went? I hope everything went perfectly.

Well yeah, me too. But after 9/13 years of neither (if I recall your ages correctly), you will certainly settle for what you can get too. Especially if that is not actually hurting your chance of finding someone to really spend time with, which I do not think it was. And my profile was really, really not designed to attract people looking for one-night-stand either. It just happened.

Shame. Would be fitting, seeing as you're a monkey, right?
I am a monkey, but I take a reasonable interest in personal hygiene. I even shaved today.

Despite some of the crap I spout, I don't generally believe that I'm all THAT bad in some areas. It's actually the second time I've been out with them (last was around mid-November last year; I can't remember if I posted about it or not), and I think it went well. Like last time, we talked a lot (over 3 hours), and agreed to go out again on the 29th. I'd rather a flaming rear not become the usual sign of fortune, however.
Hybrid Son Of Oxayotl wrote:Thanks. Are not steroids supposed to be something for body-builders or something? Do they have any kind of possible side-effect?
Body-builders used Anabolic steroids, which are different to things like topical steroid creams, which are (I believe mostly, at least) Corticosteroids. The term 'steroid' is fairly general, but you'd have to ask your doctor or a pharmacist about anything more. I don't think there's any medicines that don't have the capacity for side-effects, but the main one with topical creams is likely to be skin inflammation and surface reactions, exactly the same to a bad reaction to a new moisturiser or hand cream. Again, your doctor or a pharmacist would be able to give you better information.

I'm feeling super-validated in starting this thread now!
Did dakka just (albeit indirectly) get someone laid? Holy smokes. Good for you, Hybrid!
Incidentally, there's nothing wrong with enjoying the cuddling. It's part of the whole experience, and one that I enjoy almost as much as the main event tbh.
Well, my problem hass mostly resolved itself. She cut her hair and died the bottom half of what did remain blonde (think anime style haircut, short and square in front/sides, long in the back), so now im significantly less attracted to her. I know, shallow right?

Alright, we helped a brother out, our first definite success story!! I hope this has you feeling more confident with yourself Hybrid, now get out there and find the girl of your dreams.

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices.

Then that explains it. You probably shouldn't form opinions about how silly it is to want sex without a serious relationship until you actually know what you're rejecting.

Some of you guys sound like prudes. While i want to find somebody that i like i think sex sounds like plenty of good fun. I won't be in a relationship just for sex and absolutely nothing else though. If i'm uninterested in the woman then it's not going to last.
@Hybrid Son Of Oxayotl: Sorry you couldn't find somebody that might've gone for more than just a 'one night stand'. I was hoping we were on to something. That said i was more worrying today if she was going to be a stalker or super clingy. About how far into it did she tell you she just wanted a 'one night stand'? Was it online or face to face? Well either way i'm proud and jealous of you.
For me another thing i really want in a woman is a sense of humor. I just can't stand people that take everything seriously. Enjoying a laugh here and there is a nice thing that's for sure. Hopefully not too hard to make laugh either. I can be a pretty funny guy at times.
---------
I'm actually wondering if some people are asexual. There seems to be at least a good few that seem almost completely uninterested in sex and it just astounds me. I don't understand how that could be. I'd imagine even the biggest prude from time to time has a story of one time where they just totally lost it due to sexual arousal and relief from it.

So if someone says they aren't interested in having sex, they're either asexual, or a prude? Seems excessively judgemental.

Ashiraya wrote: Asexual people completely lack sex drive. It's very rare but exists.
Yeah i know and have heard it but i'm really curious to all the people that seem to be prudes here. Certainly there has to have been a moment where each of you has been aroused. It's supposed to be normal. I don't see the hatred of sex. That said too much could really ruin the actual bond of a relationship. As long as there's a mutual understanding between the people involved then it's fine it my book. Even though i kind of wished Hybrid got a girlfriend out of the deal she was at least decent enough to lay out all the details and be totally honest with him. There are a few women who couldn't even tell me the problem they had with me. For me i tell women if you have any issues with me whatsoever tell me right away so i can fix them. If i'm interested enough to be with you then i want to keep things going as well and smoothly as possible.
@Avatar 720: I'm not sure i put it that way but i just don't understand the disinterest in sex. If that's what you want then ok but i'm on the opposite end. Personally i can't understand the slut-shaming some people go through. I mean when it's all the time and always a new person then i tease them about their sexual promiscuity. Really it's not so bad if the person has a lot of sex with different people so much as how they handle it. Are you going to sleep with other people while in a relationship? Are you going to lie to the person you intend to sleep with or have a relationship with? Are they ok if you guys sleep with other people in the relationship or have strange sexual combinations (sexual combo: 4 hits!!!)?
Maybe that all sounds weird to some but i don't mind a lot of this sh*t as long as the person is totally honest and allows mutual understanding and mutual treatment. One example for me is i don't understand why some guys expect to receive certain types of sex and not give it. I mean as funny as it sounds i'd practically kiss a dude if it got my woman going. If i asked her to kiss a girl i'd expect to kiss a dude. It's just considered inappropriate in our culture for guys to do that though.

I dont hate sex. I hate how it seems to be the main purpose o relationships these days. Also, I have no interest in sex. I just don't want to have sex and don't see a point to having sex unless you wish to procreate (which I never plan on doing).

Well for some it can definitely get you into a lot of trouble and ruin some lives including your own. It is fun having it though.
That said if you don't wish to have sex and don't want to procreate then what's the point of even wanting to have your balls and such. I'd just find it incredibly bothersome to have an extra thing tying me down (no pun intended).
That said there's a few people i really wish could be neutered or take a pill that'd control their sexual desires. They just go way out of control with it. That said they'd seem like a dog then. 'Quit humping that woman! No! No! Not on my couch!' *smack his head*
