Yea me too . What gives <| sep |> I have 250 , 331 points , idk why flair isn ' t updated <| sep |> Hi . I ' m starting a research project that works on exactly what you ' re going through . I ' ve studied and practiced behavior analysis for the past 9 years and I just started by thesis on selfmanagement aka selfcontrolselfmastery . I ' m more than happy to share what I know with you . If you ' re interested PM me . I can say that from what I ' ve applied in my own life the results have been absolutely incredible . Either way , good luck and hang in there ! !!<| sep |> Yeah , sure . Forever and ever ? ??<| sep |> Well it doesn ' t have to be nearly as mechanical as your examples imply . There are a lot of ways to ask consent , like saying do you like it when I do this or something . Hell , I ' ve just straight up asked people if they wanna make out and stuff and it ' s fine speaking of people I ' m seeing , not random folk . That ' s my personality though . On top of that , not all women want to be ' hunted '. Personally , that got old pretty quickly . It ' s exciting being the one to do the chasing and making the first move .
