This is coming from a fellow 19 y/o
I don't think it's a good idea to see getting a boyfriend as an opportunity to "open yourself up to males" (I'm assuming make more male friends/talk to more guys).
I feel like it would be better to start talking with guys first, opening up, then use that as an opportunity to find someone. That's what I did and I ...... reply
I wouldn't recommend doing it with a stranger. My friend did when she was drunk and she said she regretted it immensely. On the other hand, I see where you're coming from, and I completely agree. I wouldn't want to have sex with people I know unless I feel absolutely comfortable with them, something that rarely happens. If you have a friend like th...... reply
As with all other posts, I'll keep this one short. Yaoi doesn't depict real gay relationships. It's made by Japanese women, who often don't know anything other than the fact it's two dudes in a relationship.
It's almost impossible for categories and subcategories of porn not to fetishize something. But they fetishize fictional characters, it's a v...... 1 reply
Don't worry. I started my first relationship right before I turned 19.
I'm not sure what you're like in your day to day like, but if you put yourself out there and actively talk to people, it may come naturally. If you never talk to anyone outside your friend group, it may be a bit more difficult.
I was kind of in a similar situation to what I d...... reply
I completely agree with you. It is not alright to fetishized gay men (or women for that matter). Also, if anyone would like to add to the discussion related to what I have stated in this post, please let me know! I'd love to hear your opinion.
Also, as a forewarning, while I am writing about the history of BL in Japan, please do not turn around an...... 1 reply
I'm single as well by choice lol
I have a lot of guy friends and they would often tell me to be who I am and show how passionate I am in my hobby (which is art) and people would come through.
They often tell me that being who you are... whether you're an awkward person or a sociable person some people find it cute! And I frickin believe them with t...... reply
When you as a person are whole, happy and showing people that you are happy being you (even with shyness) - that will attract the right person.

I feel like you should calm down and be you! Or if you think their cute tell them to at least get a little bit off your chest. Go slow and see from there where it goes. Don’t go telling them you like them the first time you see them so you won’t probably get rejected and also ask people who are dating people and have a lot of experience for adv...... reply
No boyfriend for 19 yrs in my life. It just sucks. Well, there were some people who'd be interested in me, but I just push them away. Truth is I am a typical asian girl and I am not good at expressing myself, therefore I am 'a shy girl'. I am junior in an university this year and I really want to have a boyfriend because I see that as an opportunity to open myself to males. When I see someone who is attractive and they talk to me, I lose my ability to talk and acts the opposite way I want. I dont think of it as a very critical problem, but still I really want to change. Any advice? Haha ( ̄ε(# ̄)Σ
Yes, EXTREMELY weird! Everyone should know that the law CLEARLY states that you must have had at least one lover before the age of 12. As quite the player myself 1 reply
