Help, tips, advice for being comfortable with my sexuality with other people? I just have this deep-seated internalized shame and self-hatred that prevents me from being comfortable with my sexuality (I struggle to even associate with it) in social situati

As soon as you figure it out, mind letting me know?

Though honestly… I think a lot of it just comes from time. And in finding the approach that works best for you. For me, I get uneasy bringing up my own sexuality around other people because I simply dislike being viewed as a sexual creature. I have to trust someone a lot in order to engage on that level. And it also combines with plain ol’ social anxiety. There are hangups there, and I’m a weirdo.

However, I seem to have little trouble throwing my turn-ons out onto the anonymous internet. And I think that has to do with it being on my own terms, and in my own space. As time has gone on, I’ve also used this blog to show others the kinkier side of me. It’s a lot easier to simply give someone a link and say, “Have fun delving into the seedy depths of my libido!” than discuss it personally sometimes.

So I guess my advice is, find a setting you’re comfortable with and go from there. You don’t need to launch yourself at the world yet. Just one or two people can do just fine.
