What type of men does “no sex before marriage” usually filter out? 😭

Ladies I’m curious 😭

If I communicate clearly from the beginning that:

• I don’t want sex before marriage

• I’m okay with holding hands, hugging, cuddling etc

• Making out and more physical stuff would only happen once the relationship feels genuinely serious. Ie: once they’ve earned my trust.

…what kind of guys would this usually filter out?
Will this scare away most players/f**ckbois or do some still stick around pretending to be serious? :’)

Just asking based on women’s experiences because I know boundaries help but they’re probably not magic lol

Hi! F 22 here I’m looking for anime that are grounded in reality with little to no supernatural elements.

I really enjoy stories that focus on human experiences, emotions, and relationships. I loved Heidi, and I’m especially interested in anime that highlight social issues or have historical settings with a meaningful message.

I also once watched a Hiroshima bombing scene in an anime that really stayed with me, so I’m looking for something similarly emotional and thought-provoking.

I also prefer older anime (70s, 80s, 90s), but I’m open to newer ones if they fit this vibe.

Basically, realistic, slice-of-life or drama anime that feel impactful rather than fantasy-heavy.

Any suggestions would be appreciated, thank you! :)

Yesterday, I found out that my mother had a miscarriage before giving birth to my brother, who is 16 now. The baby that was lost apparently had his cheeks developed, a heartbeat, and other features he was a boy.

My father only told me about this yesterday, and, miscarriage is something I've never had to think about before.

Although I'm a 22-year-old woman, it hit me differently than I expected. Knowing I lost a brother I never got to have is genuinely very painful.

I didn't know where to share this, so I chose Reddit to vent. However, the comments were far from kind people were outright cruel, saying things like 'lol' or questioning why I'd even feel sad about it.

Honestly, that broke me more than the news itself.
He was a baby brother I never got to meet. I was only 4 or 5 at the time and too young to even know.

I don't understand how a space that's supposed to be safe for venting can also be so cruel and inhumane. Why are people like this?

Not asking for advice on my situation, this is just a thought.

I'm 22, almost 23. And being a woman, where society already ages you out so quickly, that pressure feels a little heavier.

Does anyone ever feel scared because of their age, especially when it comes to dating?

Like the fear that all the good people will already be taken by the time you're ready, and you're past the school and college phase where it all felt more natural.

No I won't rush into dating just because I feel old, but I also can't deny that the feeling is there.

I haven't dated anyone because dating wasn't really normalized around me, and I was just busy with my own life. So it's not like I have any experience to begin with.

Does anyone else feel this urgent need to find someone as quickly as possible, whether you will act on it or not?
