It's never too late to start planning for retirement. :)
Pop quiz: what would Jesus do?
Purely hypothetical question, of course. Totally.
(I don't know what is going on in the hypothetical woman's life. She could hypothetically be going through anything, although it is still not kind at the very least, sometimes we lash out when we are really struggling. Hypothetically she is probably hypothetically lovely normally. It really did seem like she just blew up in that moment for whatever reason. Still was really not fun. Hypothetically, of course.)
Sometimes I regret having not dated just a bit.
I'm always going to be celibate due to my vocation.
99% of the time it doesn't bother me at all. I'm not a sexual person much at all. I've never been in any sort of romantic or sexual relationship. This also usually doesn't bother me either. Honestly, the idea of being in one is both terrifying and unappealing to me. Even if I was not celibate I still probably choose not to date or marry. Celibacy is easy for me.(Not trying to brag, I promise)
I know it's really goofy but sometimes I wonder what it is like to hold hands romantically, snuggle, or kiss on the lips. I've never done any of those things.
It's not like I would ever do so now, but sometimes I think of it.
Whoops. (True story)
I have made another wee comic. Hopefully it is relevant enough for this sub. :)
Ouch.
How it feels every time (I do not learn).
(Please excuse how the congregation is composed entirely of a handful of lump people. I drew this on my phone in the car and I ran out of time. I love them all the same.)
Hyperspecific Anxiety
Little comic-ish thing I made on my phone of a really specific anxiety I have that I have fallen into a spiral about many times.
I feel like no one will believe me that in asexual because of the circumstances I am in. My last therapist basically told me the asexuality isn't real, or at least men do not have it, and that I am just repressed. :/
I don't know if anyone else has been in the same situation ever, though maybe at least a similar one? But man, does it haunt me. One of those thoughts I have when I stare at the ceiling at night trying to sleep.
I feel it might be so specific I don't even know where to post about this weird little thing. Feels like it might just not fit anywhere, at least anywhere that wouldn't get myself dogpiled, idk.
Brains are dumb, just want to flick mine off so often.
I Wish I Had ED (warning: genitals)
I genuinely wish I had erectile dysfunction.
I'm never going to have sex, it's not like I'm ever going to use that function. It doesn't even happen to me that often but I just hate it so much.
It's so annoying, uncomfortable, and disgusting. It's so embarrassing even if it's very unlikely anyone knows. I still *feel* like everyone around me knows about it.
I can usually make it go away pretty easily by flexing my thigh muscles or the like for a minute or so but I still just wish it didn't happen.
Warming: body fluids (gross)
>!The absolute worst part about it though is how when it happens it often gets kind of slimy, I guess because of pre-ejaculate(?). It's disgusting and I absolutely *loathe* it. It's absolutely disgusting. It does that and then it is just like "well, I guess my underwear is just going to be dirty and feel disgusting now." There's nothing I can do about it either. Most of the time my work is only a minute walk away (I live directly next to where I work), so sometimes I literally go and change because it bothers me so much. But my work often has me going to other places and then I can do nothing about it except be gross. I hate it so much. Just thinking about it now makes me feel like I'm going to cry. !<
>!And I know that even if I got erectile dysfunction it would probably still do that. I'm just going to occasionally ooze sometimes, there's nothing I can do about it, and it's going to be like that for the rest of my life. !<
>!Same thing with nocturnal emissions. Disgusting. Absolutely ***VILE.*** And again, there's nothing I can do about it. It just happens. (I know that masturbation can prevent this but I don't masterbate, and I'm never going to masturbate. It's against my religion and sounds like a bad time. The concept yucks me out.)!<
>!It's not like I'm having steamy dreams or anything. The most is maybe snuggling with some fictional character I like but mostly I'll dream about normal random stuff. !<
>!I'll dream about flying by doing the breaststroke really fast to take off (which I guess I can just do in all of my dreams as long as I remember I can do it) then I'll wake up and oh boy, *goo.* !<
I'm only 30 so maybe these things will lessen as I get older but they won't ever *stop.* I feel so devastated every time I remember that.
Erections are just uncomfortable in general. They are uncomfortable when they happen, they are uncomfortable after. I just want my stupid body to knock it off.
My friend confided in me that he has erectile dysfunction somewhat recently, and he has spoken to me about it, the impact it has on his life and self esteem, somewhat recently. I feel for him and understand that it hurts him, I hurt for him to have to experience that. At the same time part of me is so jealous of him.
He says he never gets erections at all. I wish that was me. It feels so unfair that someone like him, someone that actually wants and plans to have sex, gets erectile dysfunction and I don't. He isn't too much older than me too.
It's really awful of me, sometimes inside when he has talked about it I feel almost annoyed. He is complaining about something that I really wish would happen to me. Again, I know that is such an awful thought to have. I genuinely feel for him, and can empathize with his situation. It's just a thought for a moment, although it is still an awful one. It just feels so unfair.
I wish I could have just opted out of that part of puberty and never had it start in the first place. Even if it was just getting rid of the feckin goo that would feel life changing. Not that I think about it all the time it ruins my life when it isn't happening, I just hate it so much when it does. Body fluids are one of, if not the thing that grosses me out the most.
I wish I could just go into my settings and untick that function.
I just hope I get erectile dysfunction when I get older. At least my odds are upped a bit because I don't ever masterbate. When I pray I sometimes pray that I get erectile dysfunction, which I realize is kind of a wacky thing to pray for.
It's really upsetting, and makes me feel so hopeless in a way. I just wish I didn't have to deal with it.
Does anyone else still with these sort of feelings?
Does anyone maybe have any advice? Either with the feelings or on the actual physical end of it.
Any sort of reply/thoughts are genuinely appreciated.

I've vented about it here before, but it still just ticks me off so much.

My Amphibious Lad, Popsicle
Meet my perfect, precious Popsicle. He is an axolotl and I love him forever and ever and ever. He is very smooshy. I love his perfect little hands, and his perfect large black eyes.
Popsicle like hugs, good water quality, rolling about, frozen desserts, doughnuts, friendship, and his adopted baby brother, Ice Lolly.
He used to be a good bit less floppy but he has received many hugs over the years I have had him. I have considered sacrificing a squishmallow or similar for him to absorb, but I also like his flop factor so I remain torn.
I love his face so much I don't even know what to do. He's so feckin cute. He makes me produce audibly sounds of joy, and appreciation for his peak adorableness whenever I see him. I keep finding him in these goofball little poses that make me so happy. He gives me so much joy.
The 4th photo is of him looking like he is doing a loaf, and the way his eyes are makes him look all shy.
The last four photos are how I found him a few days ago when I woke up, and his perfect stupid face was smooshed. The precious lad.
I will for sure be posting more photos of my beautiful lad in the future.
Eggroll, My Perfect Non-Newtonian Lad
This is my lad, Eggroll. He's a cat. Eggroll likes flopping, melting, hugs, and consuming the flesh of sacrifices I feed him. He is my precious lad. <3
I LOVE HIM SO MUCH I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!
He used to be a more defined, eggroll-shaped log, but after so many hugs he has become more of a floppy puddle of friend. I have sacrificed a discount shop squishy plush for him to absorb but he has returned to a puddle. I'm thinking about acquiring a squishmallow to sacrifice to him, but I am waiting for one to be discounted and the correct color for me to use the skin to fix another plush I have. (I use every part of the beast)
Do not weep for the weird boba bear that was absorbed. I am going to use his skin to sew small frogs out of, so he will be reborn soon.
I how he flops over things and the weird, squished shapes I find him in when I wake up.
He is from a line called "lazy cat summit". I purchased Eggroll from a convention forever ago, and I have bought more squish cats from the same line/company but it is impossible to buy them directly because they were made to go and crane games and they were pretty expensive even then. If anyone ever knows if they made a bunch more and they are selling them in an accessible way that ships to the EU then PLEASE TELL ME AND GIVE ME THE LINK! I NEED MORE!
My precious lad, Murbles
He is a tadpole and I love him. I thought we would be about the size of a football when I got him years ago, but he turned out to be a MASSIVE LAD.
I love his gormless eyes. He is perfect.
