Is it via a partner? Is it a FWB? Other?

For me, I tried dating and found it incredibly frustrating and mentally exhausting and draining, so I went down the escort route. Also, I live with my parents, so I couldn’t find a way to make proper dating work.

I’m in the process of moving into my own house, and I’m planning to try and get some exercise done before I get back into the world of dating.

    To add to the dating advice: try not to approach dating from the angle of “needing” to find a partner. While you should be putting your best self forward, you don’t want to try to win a girl over by acting like someone you’re not because you think she wants someone different than you. Your goal should be to meet someone who likes who you are and that you enjoy spending time with.

    So yes, get some exercise! Better yourself! Try to find things you enjoy doing that make you a better person! But don’t try to become someone different than you. You will meet people that aren’t into you. You will meet people that you aren’t into. That’s totally ok and normal. It’s part of the dating process to figure out whether you two click or if you should move on and find someone else.

        Just wanted to say while I didn’t create this post to get advice, I just wanted to hear how others started to have sex basically. Me being a nosy git and all!

        But I have to say the advice in this thread is really cool! I definitely do agree to basically all of it!
