So me (F18) and my partner(M20) have known eachother for about 4 years and we’ve pretty much just been close friends up until may of this year we decided to take things further. This guy is literally like my best friend we never miss a day without FaceTiming and go to sleep on the phone every night. I care about him so much and he genuinely makes me so happy. We’re supposed to be meeting in October and I can’t lie I’m SO nervous. Like what if it’s awkward and he realizes he doesn’t like me in person? It’s been eating at me and I have no one to talk to about this. To any of you that met up with your partner for the first time, what was it like? (Also this is my first boyfriend lol)

When your partner goes out whether it’s with friends or partying does it make you feel some type of way? And why? Me personally I get a little bit jealous but at the end of the day they still have to live their life. Kind of sucks tho (F18) (M20)

So last night me and my partner were just having a regular conversation and then he randomly suggested phone sex( I’m already pretty shy) and I just said yes even though I’ve never done it before and I was nervous cause I figured maybe I’ll just try it. But only mentioned with cameras off (which is also why I was more comfortable) well, as soon as we’re about to start he says do I want to try to turn the cameras on instead but just our faces and I didn’t really want to do that and I noticed he got an attitude after I said no. Which was new to me cause he never acts like that so I told him just forget it all together because it threw me off and i wasn’t even in the mood anymore. And he kept asking over and over to just do it with the cameras off then instead but at that point I didn’t even want to anymore. Then we just went to sleep and he didn’t text Goodmorning or anything like usual. Was I wrong for saying no? Should I just stop being so shy I don’t want it to push him away because other than this we really do care about each other a LOT.

So me and my partner are long distance and meet in 2 more months. He always initiates phone sex but I’ve never done it before and it just feels awkward to me. I feel bad because I don’t want that to push him away, also a virgin so I’ve never even had sex anyways which makes me even more shy. He never got mad at me for it or anything but I just don’t want him to stop liking me because of it. What should I do? Any tips on if I do decide to do it?

So me and my partner have been friends for about 4 years now and have always had a crush on each other but didn’t decide to actually take it this far until a few months ago. We have a 5 hour distance which isn’t bad at all so we’re meeting up in about 2 more months. We’ve spoke about sex and what that’ll be like and I told him I was for it but the truth is that I’m really REALLY nervous. Not only will it be my first time but I’m kind of insecure about my body lol. I’m on the curvier side (which he knows) but I have cellulite and stretch marks. I’m hoping he won’t even care but who knows. Has anyone else ever had a similar experience? And how did it turn out? (Also I’m (18 F)).

Okay so I keep hearing different opinions on 2 by 4 cages for Guinea pigs. Whether it’s “too small” or not so let’s settle this here. Is 2 by 4 okay? Or do you think it’s too small?

So I’ve had this Guinea pig for 2 weeks now
And he’s been sneezing since I got him (from petsmart)
It’s not constantly and some days he doesn’t sneeze at all. I was hoping that maybe it’s just from the fresh hay? He’s been eating perfectly fine he’s pretty shy still so there’s no change about his personality but I just wanted to know what could this be from?

I just turned 18 2 weeks ago and in my entire 18 years of living I never been to a friends house, never had a friend over, never hung out with cousins, never went to the store by myself, I have never done anything alone without my mom being around. She won’t even teach me how to drive or anything and every time I bring any of this up to her she calls me a problem child and says I’m just starting stuff as if any of this is normal. I live with her so I can’t just sneak out and risk being thrown out…I’m not sure what to even do it feels like this will never end, has anyone else been through something similar?
