Hi everyone!

I was wondering what is it like to date or be in a relationship with a fellow Type 1 Diabetic. ​I’m 27, I was diagnosed 3 years ago, and I’ve been with my partner for 8 years. Even though he tries his best to be supportive and helps me however he can, I always find myself wondering what it would be like to be with someone who also has T1D. Someone I wouldn't have to constantly explain things to or remind that my daily reality is completely different from theirs. ​Right now, a friend of mine has gestational diabetes, and it’s the closest I’ve ever felt to being truly understood by someone in my everyday life. ​Please share your experiences! Thank you all, love you guys!

Oh my God, I am so disgusted and in shock, I don’t know what to do. I’m literally nauseous. This just happened.

I (27F) was in bed today with my husband of 10 years (31M). We do this thing, and its completely consensual, where he sometimes initiates sex while I'm asleep, or we do this roleplay where I pretend to be asleep and he gives me his dick to suck. Sometimes I actually fall asleep, sometimes I'm just faking it.

Today, I felt him grab his phone while I was "asleep" with his dick on my mouth (I hadn't actually fallen asleep). He was on it for a while, then he put it down and finished. I thought "he might be checking the results of a sports bet" cause he is kinda addicted to gambling and there are a lot of matches right now since is the world cup, then when he got up to clean himself I unlocked his phone to check if there were any messages from my in-laws about our son, who was spending the day with them. Instead his screen was open to the instagram profile of my sister (21F) who he has known since she was 11 years old. My sister posts provocative NSFW, revealing photos.

When I heard him coming back, I pretended to be asleep again.

I feel so much disgust. I am paralyzed with disgust. I’m furious, I want to cry. I know there is no going back from this. Oh my God. Why?
