Okay so im kinda socially awkward with girls, I have simple conversations with them but it never really goes beyond that. So I dont have many friends that are girls, and I dont know why but I just kinda get nervous when I talk to them. So do you have any tips on how to stop being like this, and how to have more friends that are girls and even beyond that?

It’s normal to be nervous when you’re not used to it. But all you have to remember is that girls are just people too. lol. 😉 Don’t second guess yourself so much. Relax and talk to girls like you would with a guy (just don’t be a pig, remember respect). That’s all. I would hope that comes easily to you…

As for tips, the best one I can give you is CONFIDENCE. Now, that doesn’t mean being a cocky, arrogant, jackass. It just means being secure about yourself and who you are. Feel good about yourself and know who you are. That’s a quality that attracts everyone. Whether it’s just friends or someone you’re into.

If you want to be friends with a girl, talk about things you might have in common, TV shows, books, sports (if she’s a jock), movies, a party coming up, classes, etc. Keep it light, make her laugh. Everyone loves being around someone else who can make them smile.

BE YOURSELF. Girls know when you’re trying too hard, we see it coming a mile away, so just be yourself, be genuine, and you’re going to find some girls that really like you, whether it’s platonic or not. Girls are naturally drawn to guys who are secure about themselves and honest.

When you’re looking for a girl for a friend, she’s just going to be another one of the guys. That’s how you have to visualize it.

If you’re looking to pursue a platonic relationship, try saying something casual like “we should text!” during your conversation and you can get her number that way. Then you can text her and talk about whatever it is you found you had in common. It’s not a big deal, it’s just a way to keep in touch. You can text about “drama” that’s happening with other friends that you both know, some new event coming up. Hell, if you guys chat enough, you could start asking HER for advice about girls! It doesn’t have to be a huge deal because it’s not, okay? Girls aren’t as scary as they seem. (Okay, some are, but not all! I promise!)

Be yourself, be genuine, and be confident.

Those are the best tips I can give you. I promise, you’ll find the rest of the way on your own, and it won’t be half as hard as you think it is right now.

well here’s the doozie–she’s my best friend’s younger sister. we’re in the same group of friends and everyone has begun noticing there’s some intense chemistry between us but it just seems like everyone (including her sister/my best friend/my roommate) is so caught off guard and awkward because quite frankly this came out of no where. so not only is there a lack of experience, there’s an awkward back-story to this whole thing.

You idiot!!! That’s a pretty freaking big detail to leave out when you’re asking someone for advice! Sheesh.

With that “tiny” detail now known, all I can say is…you’re fucked.

Lol. No. Okay, so is your hesitation due to your best friend and how she might react? Because dating a sibling is a bit tricky… (This would work so much easier if you came off anon! I’ll private message you, okay?)se

i’ve been with plenty of guys but never done anything with a girl but i fell for this pretty little thing and there is this insane amount of sexual tension between us and she has literally never even been kissed by anyone. basically we’re both as inexperienced as it gets and have not a clue how to handle the awkward clusterfuck of a situation that we’re in. any suggestions on anything? it seriously feels like we’re both losing our minds over this..

Here’s the good news: you’re both in the same boat! Let that ease your anxiety a bit. She’s nervous, you’re nervous, so let that comfort you in knowing that you’re on equal footing here.

That being said, what’s stopping you? The fact that she’s a girl? SO WHAT? It’s a person that you’re attracted to so do what your instincts tell you to do. Don’t give yourself a complex about the gender difference. Sexuality is fluid. It doesn’t mean that you’re gay or that you’re straight or that you’re bi. You’re attracted to someone…so go for it. If she was a guy, you would have already made a move, am I right? Or at least pushed him to make the move.

You can do one of two things: you can talk to her about your feelings for her or you can kiss her (then talk about your feelings).

If you’re unsure of how she’s feeling about you, whether or not she’s feeling the same, then the only thing you can do is suck it up, be brave, and talk to her about it. Tell her how you feel. She might not feel the same and, yes, that will suck, but at least you’ll know where you stand and all that tension from the unknown will be resolved (even if it means leaving you hurt).

However, if you’ve already talked about this with her, or if you’re feeling the receptive vibes, then kiss her! That will help. Taking that next step. Make it short and sweet since she’s not experienced with kissing and then you both will be able to move from there. You can talk about how nervous you are and what you’ve been thinking. You will be more certain of your feelings after that kiss. You’ll feel if it’s right and she’ll know what she feels as well.

Even if she does share your feelings, she’s not going to make the first move because of the imbalance of experience in general. You’ve already been with people and she hasn’t.

Have you talked about your feelings with each other? It kind of sounds like you did from what you said. But I could be wrong. If you have discussed your feelings for each other then DEFINITELY KISS HER ALREADY!

Is there any other reason why it’s awkward for you two other than the fact that you’re both girls who have never been with another girl before? Because if that’s all that’s stopping you, you need to change your mindset. Girl/boy – doesn’t matter. Kiss who you wanna kiss. Love who you love. Experience is the least of your concerns. If you want to, you both will learn about each other as you go. Just enjoy it! There will be missteps and awkwardness and fumbling, but that’s all part of the joy of being together and getting to know another person.

Enjoy learning about each other and exploring in all the ways you want to. There’s no shame in it. None at all.

You should never be afraid to tell your partner if something hurts or makes you uncomfortable. If they love you, they wouldn’t want to hurt you. It doesn’t have to come across as a criticism. Just say, “Gently please baby… softly.”

theres this one guy that i have sex with and he is unbelievably beyond sexy, and the sex is amazing.. but when he sucks on my nipples hes not gentle at all. and he doesnt really use his tongue he just sucks really hard.. how can i tell him with out discouraging from doing it at all

Honesty is the best policy. If he’s not doing something that you need, trust me, the guy is gonna want to know! I know it’s awkward because you don’t want to embarrass the other person so my advice would be to talk him through it when he’s doing it. A little bit of instruction goes a long way, especially when you’re breathless, naked, and holding him by the back of his head. 😉

When he starts using his mouth on your nipples, just gently tell him how you want it done. Tell him you how you want to feel his tongue on you, tell him to go slower, tell him how good it feels when he does it. Don’t tell him he was doing it wrong before (he’ll get that without it being said), just tell him how you want it done now. If he’s the right kind of guy, he’s going to want to do everything he can to please you, and he’d probably hate that he’s been getting that part wrong. If he gets shy about it, encourage him even more. Verbal and non verbal praise and encouragement will get you everywhere!

That’s just my humble opinion. Anyone else have thoughts on this?
