So, I'm giving online dating another try. I came out of a six-month relationship two months ago.
Two of the guys I was chatting to before my relationship are back in touch with me.
One of them I really fancied. I actually knew him IRL and had fancied him for years. He saw me on the dating site and asked me out. We went for coffee. I have my nose pierced. After ten minutes, he asked me if I also had my clit pierced. Really? We're having coffee! We're in our forties! Just calm down!
The other one was very very lovely. I didn't really fancy him, but he was a very sweet guy and we had a lot of lovely messages. He's very articulate and kind. I was thinking of giving him a chance because he's so nice. But last night, he wanted to send me a dick pic. We haven't even met. I just don't get it.
Why do these men seem to want to skip the initial stages of a relationship? I've had a couple of long-term relationships and a few shorter ones. The sex comes naturally. When I'm ready. And then I bloody love it! I'm not a prude. Let's have it off as often as we can! But, ffs, why can't they just get to know women first?
Is this the way it is now? Are women willingly accepting dick pics before they've actually seen the dick with their own eyes? If a partner wants to send me a naughty pic when we're in a relationship, I don't mind - it doesn't turn me on, but I wouldn't flip out about it. But why can't they just hold their horses a bit and wait?
I'm worried that I'm just not modern or liberated enough or something. But I just don't like sex unless I like the person and have a bit of a rapport/feelings for them.
Should I give up? Are most women into this new way of going about things?
I mean, dicks are pretty ugly-looking things at the best of times.
Help!
