@yoooff Your head is still stuck in purity culture. You are in no position to give advice if you have such a strong one sided view on such things discussed. People break up, people get together. People hook and don’t. Expecting someone to be pure just for you is so unrealistic. What does “right” men and “right” women look like for you? I keep seeing you in other comments just commenting for the sake of hearing your own voice. Not even providing advice. Your one suggestion to someone being to break up in another comment section. NOCD isn’t your local bar where you can just shout and hoot out random ass comments.

@Enthusiast - His wording might not have been the best lol but everyone's allowed to have different morals so someone is allowed to like hookup culture and someone is also allowed to feel uncomfortable by it. Both are also allowed to find a partner that's compatible for them. If he isn't promiscuous and he wants a partner like him- makes sense! Avoids big compatibility issues. It's not really fair to say someone should force themselves to be with someone who's not compatible to them or to say that only someone who agrees with hookup culture can say how they feel. Everyone has a different mindsets as we are individuals, not a unit :) Society always preaches that we shouldn't have to force ourselves to like uncomfortable situations so I think that applies to everyone across the board. I often see people trying to force others to feel comfortable with hookup culture/ promiscuity and that's not fair, just like judging someone for their promiscuity can be seen as unfair as well

@Enthusiast I’m not sure why you’re so heated and defensive right now 😄 We can have a calm conversation as adults. For “body issues” you made a mistake- I was only speaking directly to the original poster taboo_brain19 because she wrote that she feels insecure about herself. That wasn’t towards you at all. So you can settle down.. lol 😂 And that’s great that everyone can find a compatible person for them :) 👍 Have a nice day!

@Enthusiast I know what I read and it was obviously aggressive. This way of speaking is immature tbh. I like to have calm discussions on here as it is a mental health platform after all 🙏

@Enthusiast Reminder this is the NOCD app: It’s not about being “sensitive” it’s about reading the room. This a professional mental health platform where we give advice, try to be kind and help others here with their issues. Your rude attitude is highlyyyy inappropriate for this app and it’s devaluing the decent points you did originally have to add to the conversation. Even if I was “sensitive,” so what? Isn’t that the whole point of this mental health app? 😂 For people to be vulnerable and sensitive lol? I have already rightfully earned OCD conqueror so who are you to teach me unsolicited fake help on how to use “uncertainty”- in a mocking manner to gaslight me on your rudeness. That is gross to preach OCD practices for your advantage over others. Your unkind way of speaking has no place here and it’s unfairly taken all the attention away from taboo_brain’s original post for advice. This attitude & gossiping is best for TikTok comments. Btw I didn’t convince the poster of anything- even she herself commented that hookup culture in this generation is “very sad” and so it’s obviously not compatible for her because she’s saying it’s uncomfortable. Therefore, my advice could relate to her & you do not speak for her. I’m allowed to try to help whoever I want, just like you are. It’s not your place to boss anyone around. Once again, “have a nice day” 👍

I was also reacting the same way about my boyfriends past romantically and sexually. His past sexual and romantic relationships didn’t involve strippers but it doesn’t matter the occupation, in the end it’s about the people. For more context, he’s had more of a sexual and romantic history than me as I’ve never dated or hooked up with anyone before I met him. Here are some things I have come to accept: -Them having a past, sexually and romantically, is nothing you could be upset about. -People like people lol. This is one I was struggling to accept for a while . I used think I was a bad gf if I even acknowledged the slightest bit that someone who isn’t my bf was attractive. I would even feel guilty when I went into my relationship for having small school crushes and even celebrity crushes. It happens ! People like people. -Rejection: His past is not personal to me. It used to hit me so personal and deep that he dated people before me and was also intimate with them. But during the time he was having these interactions we didn’t even go to the same high school (we met 1st yr in college) on opposite sides of our city so we had no connection to ever meeting before we did. I understand that you feel sensitive to the situation because you’re experiencing rejection from his past. How I choose to accept his past is saying : His past is not personal to me. He didn’t know me when he was having these romantic and sexual relationships. I will not blame him for pursuing romantic and sexual relationships before meeting me. Shaming: At some point are we becoming hypocritical of our partners past when we ourselves have one? Like I can bring up how my bf found his ex gfs attractive at some point and get upset but he could also say “Well, you found a boy attractive in High school and it wasn’t me ”. We get so caught up in them and their history and forget that they could point a finger back. My point being let’s not become hypocrites (if it’s relates) and lean on shame when it comes to accepting our partners past. Don’t make them feel bad for being attracted to someone.

@Enthusiast My bf was also an alcoholic and did stupid shit, but I guess the fact that he still said they were hot bothers me. I’m really trying not to have resentment for his past when I myself haven’t done things I’m proud of

To be honest many of the dancers are attractive and many also are squared away in college , working towards bigger goals and many are not exploited at all .Normally many establishments have security and if customers become disrespectful towards the dancers they will suffer negative consequences.

@taboo_brain19 This is only my personal vantage point, many people males and females that attend the clubs are just regular people that have similar ethics and values as anyone else . If the person attending the club is of good quality and morals to start with attending the club will not affect that . Depends strictly on the individual. Me personally am a male and find the environment is just a type of fantasy and if not taken too far is ok for me .

I’m so sorry :( I’ve dealt with similar. Sometimes it’s a sign you’re not compatible if your bf is into promiscuous things and you’re not and so they make you uncomfortable. If his interest in those sexual hobbies will always bother you, maybe re-consider the relationship..? Often, the interests don’t just stop at strip clubs. There’s usually more explicit events things in the past that happened that we just don’t know about (which I found out from experience with my previous partner). There’s layers to these things Keep in mind that we are individuals so you’re allowed to have a different comfort level. It’s okay if something makes you feel uneasy. Don’t let anyone tell you different or peer pressure you into feeling comfortable with something you’re not (The body issues is a separate topic and I don’t wanna make my message too long lol so I’ll just say that also needs to be worked on, in your personal time) ❤️🩹

Sorry if this is a bit of an odd post, but I’m wondering if there are any girls out there that have specifically struggled with shame around watching porn? A lot of my real-event ocd stems from watching that kind of content in the past, and for some reason it feels particularly taboo as a woman. As a young teen, I saw some genuinely disturbing things, and I think a lot of that was to do with having unrestricted access to the internet. However, despite lots of people telling me “that’s normal teen curiosity” it just never feels like it applies to me, and that I’m genuinely just a sexual deviant. I think because that kind of content is so graphic and overstimulating it’s really stuck in my brain, and I just wish I could turn back the clock and switch off the computer. I’ve recently been struggling with doing typical ‘girly’ stuff because I feel tainted and gross, and I just want to get back to feeling myself again.

Hi, I'm 17,about to be 18. I've been struggling with these thoughts for the past 8 months. I was wondering if someone experienced ever the same because I feel im "different". BACKGROUND: (I'm not diagnosed with Ocd but seeing a local counselor) About 9 months ago I cheated on my boyfriend with this guy S (who blackmailed, manipulated and molested me). Since then when I realized that what i did was very WRONG and so I started ruminating picking apart every single interaction and telling my boyfriend, i tried to remember every single detail because otherwise I felt like i was being a fraud and hiding things to save myself, i had many crisis about it because I had also what i think was false memory ocd. My boyfriend forgave me idk how tbh I still wonder. CURRENT STRUGGLE: Months ago I was sure I didn't wanna S in any way and i was sure even when everything happened. For the past 2 months tho I've been having thoughts like " Do I love S?" "I love S" "S is hot" "Would S find me hot?" "What if I want S?" " What if I don't love my boyfriend enough?" "What if I secretly want S?" "What if I see my boyfriend as a friend only?Do I?" And I tried testing my reaction to intimate scenarios with S, I'm scared I like it i dont really wanna love S or have any secret attraction, I wish I didn't have any of this and I want to be sure of my feelings for my boyfriend because I know I wanna be with him and I see a future with him like he brings me comfort. But a part of me keeps trying to convince me otherwise. Sometimes I think I'd rather die than have these thoughts. Im so scared of not being able to control my feelings, im scared I can't resist S and its giving me anxiety and making me cry. Sometimes when i think of those sexual scenarios with S or I get those thoughts my mind tells me to smile because i like it because I find it funny. It makes me doubt myself all over again. Like I'm always like I need to test if I'd feel aroused to intimate scenarios with S, lately im trying to fight this urge to test and test but my mind is like "just do it this once so you can be sure. I can never watch anything romantic or sexual or whatever because my mind would be like "you and S" or sometimes I'm just enjoying time with my bf and im like " yes we can just have a sneaky cheating thing thats ok" and it makes me want to figure it out to find an answer a solution because idk it just does like I need to find the meaning of it if it means the truth and all. Im worried im just an awful person and these thoughts just ruin my quality of life . Today i had a crisis where i ended up doinf swlf harm, I'm so scared of finding someone that's not my boyfriend desirable or sexual appealing or whatever it is, I also have bodily reactions when I try to imagine and test my reaction to scenarios. Now i keep groing everytime and I dont know why but i have this sensation and I dont want to havebit especially when its something S related. Does someone experience the same thoughts? Am I alone in this? Is this ROCD? What should i do?
