One question for this man: why, why, why would you ever say that? And yeah, your dads probably just acting weird because this goober made it weird and made him super uncomfortable.
It’s basically like going to your girlfriends dad and saying “hey, how you doing, I’m the guy that’s railing your daughter.”
You're not a jerk. Not remotely I'd put money down that your friend was not the first. She's half her age and was just a target of opportunity. Your BiL is the major bad guy here.
Dude it could be special for her too. She might feel very special. She likely won't judge you for it. If she does, well that would be more negative about her.
She'll also be more willing to show you how, and take it slow. Less expectations.
You'll find out that sex is so natural.
If condoms are needed, you should buy several brands and practice by yourself. Nothing worse than a wrong size or style of condom
Her panic attacks are just guilt tripping. However there is something I have to ask. When she asked to be forgiven, did you make your tell wife of her affair all about it? If not you should have.
Thank you. Tbh I don’t believe in marriage as a ultimate goal and neither does he. There is no happy forever after. Nevertheless, I still want to build something with someone to whom I am enough and from the beginning I always felt that I needed to change something about myself. I even talked to his ex once and she told me she felt he was constantly trying to change her.? but at least he envisioned living with her .
I am fed up of feeling like I’m not perfect enough.
If you want sex and she doesn't, or you think it's important and she doesn't, this isn't going to be a relationship that works.
It's not like you liking Mint and her liking Strawberry when it comes to milkshakes – those are things you can totally work around, but if you have completely different values like this? It won't work.
More to the point if she can't even have a conversation about it with you, how can you see a future in the relationship anyway?….
Why not? It’s been four months. Dating is to find someone who’s right for you, and I promise that you can do better than this guy who doesn’t respect you at all.
I think your boyfriend is free to explore and do what he wants and I think you are free to set the boundaries you require for you to be in a relationship.
If those two things don't overlap then you move on. You can't force him and you shouldn't succumb to his pressure to force you.
Thank you, I'm going to put more effort in my relationship, maybe I'm the problem, I need to be a better husband, I need to be more creative in order to be a better lover with my wife. I really appreciate your advice
I feel like most young relationships don't work out for that exact reason, even if people are a perfect match. It's a matter of right person, wrong time. I entered a relationship at 18 that ended up lasting 5 years. It was amazing and there are no hot feelings between us. We are still connected on social media, so it's nice to check in with him. I am thankful for the experience we had; I learned a lot. You will get over it with time.

She was 11 when they met. He's known her since then ?

Of course you did.
If you want sex and she doesn't, or you think it's important and she doesn't, this isn't going to be a relationship that works.

That’s a good point when framed that way. I’m definitely leaning that direction.
Why not? It’s been four months. Dating is to find someone who’s right for you, and I promise that you can do better than this guy who doesn’t respect you at all.
I think your boyfriend is free to explore and do what he wants and I think you are free to set the boundaries you require for you to be in a relationship.

At 5, she'll remember. I remember things from when I was 4.

Wish he’d just trust me
