Friendship

There’s no reason why I, or anyone else, should try to talk you into doing a sexual activity you don’t have any interest in doing. Coercing someone into doing something sexual they don’t want to is an abuse, and in many cases, also falls under definitions of rape, and for good reason. What motivates…

If you’ve already spoken to her about your concerns and directed her to some resources for more information, there’s really not a lot more you can do when it comes to your friend. I would, however, suggest that you check into the age of consent in your state, since very few states have an age of…

Leave a note for her saying, “Hey, I know you really dig your new guy and all, but I was wondering if you and me could hang out together sometime. Just us. You’re still my best friend no matter what, and I miss you.” Some people get really wrapped up in the excitement of new relationships, and they…

One of the absolute worst reasons to have sex – and a great way to assure that the sex you have won’t leave you feeling great physically or emotionally – is because everyone else is doing it, or because you feel left out. When you have sex with a partner, it should be about you and about that…

What an awesome friend you are! Obviously, everyone who is waiting for sex, or a certain type of sex, can have different reasons for waiting. Too, a person’s reasons for waiting might change over time, or if a person originally had wanted to wait, they may not want to all that much at a certain…

We have talked about those kind of things before I decided I was a lesbian. She always told me how weird and unnatural it is. But while it might be for her, for me, it’s not.
