Dualistic question: for the ladies would you ever date a recovering sex addict? a man who’s paid for sex at least 700 times? Could you look past that?

And for the men would you date a former prostitute or pornstar? Could you look past that?

Man here so I’ll answer the second question. I think I would be more likely to date the prostitute over the pornstar so long as the prostitute didn’t also perform as a stripper, pornstar, OF girl, etc.

For me it wouldn’t be the body count that really matters it would be having things on display and available on the internet for anyone and everyone to find and know about and then having the stigma associated with that.

I think if the person is genuinely looking for monogamy and has taken care of their sexual health, I wouldn’t be too bothered. I will say that personally I don’t like the idea of someone paying for sex so I really would rather not know about it.

Don't hide the recovering addiction but it's not necessary for you to disclose the specifics upfront. Not everyone deserves access to your personal history. Also remember that there are sites where women are posting details about men they date, so be careful to protect your privacy.
When you meet one that you are serious about, offer to pay her as a role play and see how she takes it😉 If she takes the money and plays along, boom! She can't be judgmental about it can she? haha. Plus it will give you some insight on if you should mention it.

As an older guy, I would say yes given a certain amount of time and whether they actually healed/recovered or changed their way of life. You could say the same things about cheaters, gamblers, or even alcoholics perhaps.

He supported my career and dreams and this just doesn’t make sense. We have gotten a counselor but things aren’t getting better. Comment>

Been having trouble moving on since girlfriend ended relationship 3 weeks ago after 2+ years of dating.

Now I just have so many regrets that I let her go. I know we still love each other and left on “good” terms but can’t forgive myself for my lack of action.

My SO adds very little to our relationship. She has a dead end job. I cook. I work. I oversee finances. I plan trips. She doesn’t have a voice in the relationship. I’ve asked her to give her perspective but she always defaults to mine bc she thinks I’m smarter/worldly. She feels intimated by me and my social circle. Lately, I’ve found myself thinking for her. Anticipating her wants and needs and then adjusting my behavior to meet them. Which she appreciates but it’s frustrating 29M 27F
