I feel like when I’m busy with work, I don’t even want to reply to attractive guys. Is this normal?

Lucky you! I will always make some time for my raging hormones. Would drive me insane if I didn’t.

Yes, same here. And it is perfectly normal! For me, it’s all about the state of mind I’m in.

yes

I go through peaks and valleys for sure. There are times where I need to get off like 3-4 times per day, and other times (like now) where I will go multiple days without doing anything.

Yeah stress dampens my sexual drive for sure. I still try to reply to attractive guys though to “save for later” but most of the times people just quickly move on to the next person if you’re not available right then

Okay stress release me daddy

I want to be proud and confident about this but could use some moral support.

Haven’t done the dating thing in a while so need advice!

Or am I overreacting and I should initiate the plan? I initiated the insta follow and the dm so I feel like it’s his turn…?

Well I recently told a guy I have been seeing I have HSV-2. We have not yet been physical but it’s been heading that direction. Man I hate this part - waiting to see what his response will be after he researches and talks to his doctor. I’m on daily meds which help reduce transmission risk. You’d think that since HSV-2 affects 20% of Americans and likely a higher % of gay men, there would be less taboo but it’s hardly ever talked about. Anyone else in my shoes? Or had it disclosed to them?
