I often come off too strong too soon and scare the other person away; please help...

Therapy doesn’t just stop when you don’t click well with your therapist. That just means you need to try someone else. Give it another try.

I don't know what it is they could tell me that I don't already know...and I don't think they'd be much help on these kind of matters.


I’m not going to diagnose you online, but you seem to clearly be dealing with grief and trauma. Therapy is pretty helpful with both of those, but not every therapist is a trauma expert. And not every therapist is an expert at working with neurodivergent adults. You need to do a little research and be patient and be open to therapy. Going in thinking that there’s nothing they can teach you that you don’t already know is the wrong approach. We don’t take that approach with any other medical (or mechanical) problem. Be humble and let a professional talk to you with an open mind, but don’t expect that every therapist will be the perfect fit. You might need to try someone new if it’s not working out. I just left a therapist of over 10 years because we weren’t making progress any more, they weren’t challenging me. It happens.

There is a major problem I seem to have and it really frustrates me as I feel like I keep making this same mistake over and over again. I often come on too strong too soon (online I mean) and I end up scarring the other person away :,(

Like, there was someone here who was really one of a kind, one in a billion, thought she might be "The One" but as I often do I stupidly came on too strong and she ended up ghosting me, even after she reassured me (because I kept asking to make sure I was doing everything right) that "You are fine" and she would say "I appreciate that". I mean, I thought maybe I had some appeal for her but...as I often do, I blow it. :,( And of course I've had more than my fair share of catfishers too I'm sorry to say.

I wish I could somehow learn from my mistakes and do better...I've been quite depressed and lonely lately (seasonal changes probably don't help that any) and it might be that it will soon be 2 1/2 years since my wife passed away. Still, can anyone help me be as appealing and persuasive and all that as I can? And try not to come off too strong too soon? I know that's my main problem by far...


Maybe repeatedly asking if you were interacting with her correctly gave off the wrong vibe.

Dream size for your love

Kacchan:
For me, it's less about the size and more about the mentality. Whether a person is class 3 morbidly obese or underweight, if they feel sexy and get turned on by fat, weight gain, and/or getting someone else fat - then they are the perfect size in my book.

I've dated all different sized people - including someone who was severely underweight, but was completely sexually confident with their size and were WAY into weight gain. I truly felt like that person was perfectly-sized. Another I dated was beautifully fat with a gorgeous fat belly, love handles, squeezable fat arms and even a cute double-chin just beginning to make an appearance. But they HATED it, and detested themselves, and no amount of positive reinforcement from me would change their mind, so.... NOT perfectly-sized. smiley


Great point. I think one of the other threads on here talks about this, maybe not as successfully, but self image and accepting how you look is so heart wrenching for some people, and for the people in their lives who wish they could see how beautiful/handsome they are through someone else’s eyes. It’s very complex.

Followers

FF Team:


The easiest way to do this is probably by adding another tab / page on the following page: fantasyfeeder.com/follow - and a link to 'view more' on the profiles that show on the profile section.


That would be perfect!

That aside, the followers layout could definitely use improvement.

Story posts

FF Team:
To add multiple tags to a story you jut need to press and hold the 'Ctrl' key while clicking on the relevant / multiple tags.

This is not a premium feature so all members can categorise their story content correctly to reach the right audience / readers/

Have you tried pressing Ctrl to multiple select?

If you have and its not working please can you let me know, and also state what device and browser you are using.

Thanks,

Couldn’t they just be normal checkboxes where you can select multiple the normal way? Having to hold ctrl is not very clear and doesn’t work on mobile.

Story posts

Abyssal Mind:
For some reason I can't add more than one tag but I've seen other authors post with more than one, it's actually driving me a little crazy. I'm new to posting stories so I might be doing something wrong, if it's a premium feature let me know. That'd be kind of dumb but if that's how the site works so be it.

Actually, any tips on posting would be very helpful. I want to make the best stories that provide the most value possible, I have a passion for this kind of storytelling and I want it to show.

-Much appreciated, A.M.


I know exactly what you’re talking about. My only guess is that in the past you could add multiple tags to your story but an update somewhere along the line broke that. So when you see a story with lots of tags it’s older. Or maybe you and me are just unlucky!

For the second part of your question: I don’t write the most popular stories here, even though I’m fairly shameless when it comes to promoting them. I try to write honest, good stories, though, even if it’s just smut. I try to edit a lot before I post and listen to feedback and write stuff that’s not dumb. So what I write isn’t the most popular, but enough people like it and I think it has value. Write the kind of stuff you want to read.
