So how is it your fault? He’s the one that cheated. It’s pathetic how he’s looking for an excuse to give you the blame for his fucked up behaviour. HE IS TRASH and you’re better off without him.
That’s horrible, I’m so sorry.. Just know that it was NOT your fault, it NEVER is your fault for being cheated on. Cheaters are some of the absolute worst people in this world, I hate them sooo much! Like honestly, if you’re unhappy in a relationship, which he clearly was if he felt the need to cheat like an asshole, he should tell you, and you should talk it out and go from there. Once again, I am so sorry for you,
My ex had an affair as well. Overheard some more than friendly things over the phone. It's tough trying to find that, "care" or respect between you and someone else sometimes even if it seems like there's smiles and laughs mostly.
Love is a scary and dangerous game tbh. This person will either be the one to break your heart into a million pieces, or the person you’ll spend the rest of your life with.
Depends if he was pushy or not. If he wasn't. Maybe he felt like he wasn't good enough for you. I mean, 4 years, dear? I mean, we can't be cliche and say, oh, sex ain't part of love but it damn sure is.I say wait for it like a fine wine. All those emotions he should feel for you would come out, you can't explain it in words. It is next level. This usually is established early on or comes naturally.
I see it more as generational. Like, my friend was telling me there was this girl telling him particular things that if he wanted to swing there, he could make something happen but he has a child already with his SO. He says, as he gets older, he doesn't really care for sex as much. I feel the same way too. It's endearing that there are people like marussya that want to preserve their innocence. It was my gen-....
and FON's that made fun of people for being virgins but looking back at it now. I see, it was just children being children and poking fun. Nowadays, this new gen, wants to treat sex like going out for coffee. I noticed all these 18-22ers having sex just cause. It doesn't impress us anymore, you kinda grow out of that mindset. You know? The whole virgin stigma was my gen's doing and we didn't know better then.
I completely agree with @Hold_Junkie93 on this. In my teens, it was a stigma around being a virgin already, and it’s way worse now. All young people care about these days, male or female, is sex. This is why I prefer hanging out with older people, they have grown out of this. Most my friends are around 30+, because of this reason. Sex is a thing, it should be done by people who want to, and if not, that’s fine too.
