    I will say, dating a 30 years old man when you're 19 is not the same thing as dating a 40 years old man when you're 29, even is the age gap is the same. Maturity comes with time and experiences. When you're older you're less subject to grooming and/or power dynamic because you already have your own adult life. Which you don't have at 19.

    To the person who wanted advice on virginity at 28, I only had my 'sexual debut' at 27, and not having had sex felt like a massive weight on my shoulders before that. I also have friends who still haven't had sex and are a similar age to you. It's more common than you might think, but people don't talk about it because there's a bit of a stigma surrounding it. However, letting go of that is easier said than done. I at one point just started dating someone who I was really comfortable around, and felt ready to explore that. I was not in a committed relationship with that person, but they were poly, and therefore a great communicator. The slightly unconventional aspect to this relationship actually made me feel more at ease, because the pressure was off this being a 'normal' relationship. Another thing you could do is take PIV sex off the table if you've found someone you would like to have your sexual debut with. This and the great level of communication took all the pressure off, and just gave me license to just explore all kinds of ways mine and my sex partner's bodies could be touched. When I did eventually have PIV sex with a different partner, it did not feel like a big deal at all. All the other stuff actually felt way more intimate and because I had a really positive experience with this person, I was actually pretty sexually confident. Another thing that really helped was listening to Unexpected Fluids, a podcast from the BBC about everything that can go wrong during sex. Knowing that sex is often a bit clumsy, even for people who do have sexual experience, was a massive help. Also, listening to podcasts about sex where people are sex positive and open really helped me gain a vocabulary of how to talk about sex. Communication is one of the best tools you can have. Now I'm actually glad I didn't have sex until I was in my twenties, because I needed that time to be ready. I also skipped the teenage years of fumbling around having no clue about what to do, because I was armed with knowledge and had years to explore my own body first. (That said, fumbling around can also be very fun). Hope this helps!

    I also had my first time at 27 in a one night stand and agree it was really not a big deal at all - i think "virginity" is often framed as something that changes you, but in my experience it definitely did not feel life changing at this stage in my life - which is to be expected! Similar to the person above, I like reading literotica (fanfiction, mostly, but a variety of depictions of sexual experiences) and I think it gave me a good frame of reference that was pretty true to life - I'm no expert, but if you're anxious about it, I feel like reading/consuming media is a good way to gain understanding without physical experience!

    I was 26 and I'd definitely built it into a huge thing. I expected it would take months for me to be comfortable enough to do anything sexual with someone but turned out that when I desired them enough I could use that to override the anxiety. It was still definitely there, but my partner was very respectful, didn't make a bug deal out of it but did check in to make sure I wasn't doing anything I wasn't happy with. It might be helpful to think about what sexual activities would feel easier and you could start with the easiest. For me, pleasuring my partner was easier because I felt in control of what I did, whereas some people would feel more pressure to be good at it in that situation. Whatever works for you.

    Also wanted to say I debuted at 27. Mine was with my housemate and involved about 8 months of getting to know each other and sexual buildup before it actually happened so we felt quite comfortable with each other. He didn't know at the time, and actually he was pretty chuffed about it. When I was dating before that I would often send them a text a date or two in to let them know so they could manage their expectations if they still wanted to meet up. Was a good way to get rid of people who were only interested in sex.

    I would recommend that anyone in a power imbalance (age gap, living in a nonnative culture, etc etc) should have an escape hatch. In my opinion, both of you should want this, because it guarantees you’re staying in the relationship because you want to, and not because you’re “stuck”. I would have plans to detect and escape at least the following three types of abuse. Emotional: do you have a social circle supporting you that does not include him? Physical: do you always have a place to go that is away from him? (ex. a friends house, or a staffed public place that is open 24/7) Financial: do you have your own savings that he can’t touch or monitor, and a way to provide for yourself if you break up?

    I would strongly encourage the 19-year-old to not date 30+-year-olds right now. I dated older people as a teen and I am now 30. Looking back, I am able to recognize that there was always an inherent problematic power dynamic there, even though I was very mature for my age and even though I thought I was an equal in the relationships. I would urge you to proceed with a great deal of caution. Also, I would recommend talking to a therapist (if that's possible & accessible for you) or someone trusted and wise to go deep into why you are attracted to older people and what you're hoping to get out of dating them. There's nothing wrong with being attracted to older people; it just might benefit you a lot to know the underlying reasons behind your desire so you can figure out if you'd be approaching those relationships in safe and sustainable ways. The fact that your question involves trying to figure out how to get them to take you seriously is evidence of the inherent power dynamic at play. You shouldn't have to get the people you want to date to take you seriously. You should both take each other seriously by default. Also I would question any 30+ year olds who *do* show interest in you about why they are interested in you and what their thoughts are about age gaps and how they will make sure that they are acting safely and appropriately within the power dynamic that inherently exists.

    RELATIONSHIP DOUBTS, OMG I've got Relationship OCD, which is a super fun form of anxiety that takes any doubts about anything in relationships and ratchets them up to Level 17 all the time. One of the really hard bits about any form of OCD is that the intrusive thoughts are super distressing for the person experiencing them, and sharing them with other people (i.e. with confessing compulsions) can be pretty detrimental sometimes if the person you're talking to doesn't also have the internal experience of OCD (like when you spend weeks convinced that maybe you don't actually love your mother, for example). So therapy with professionals trained in the treatment of OCD specifically and/or OCD support groups can be super helpful if doubts feel like they're more than thoughts and are actually causing physical/mental distress on a debilitating level! Overthinking About You: Navigating Romantic Relationships When You Have Anxiety, OCD, and/or Depression (Allison Raskin) is a wonderful book and I will never not recommend it to everyone. P.S. I cannot overstate how meaningful that ADHD video was for me! Thanks soooo much for making it ❤❤

    I’d love Hannah to touch on how society views sex through a masculinised lens. Women are often told we’re “not broken” etc for differing sexually from men, but we rarely talk about how the patriarchy and consequently men perpetuate inflammatory views on sex, sexuality and how one should engage in said things. I think there needs to be more conversations had re the cultural and societal trappings of sex, relationships, women and how they all bleed into one another.

    I find it interesting that you said that the person with the higher sex drive is often considered as "normal" and the person with the lower sex drive considered as "the problem". While I don't doubt that's the case in a lot of discussions between some couples, that's not been my experience at all. As the person with the higher sex drive in several relationships, I've always been made to feel like I was annoying, unreasonable, that my expectations were unfair and essentially been made to feel like a predator for craving sexual intimacy with my own partner. I think it really depends on what the man is experiencing really: if the man has a higher sex drive then the woman is the problem for not making an effort, if the man has a lower sex drive then the woman just has unrealistic needs for wanting more (this was my experience). I know there's an expectation put on men to always be "up for it" so I'm sure there will be some men who disagree with the above statement, but any time I've been in a straight relationship that's how I've felt.

    Agree. I an in a straight presenting relationship and my sexual desire is significantly higher than my partner’s. I feel exactly like how you describe in my sexual relationships. I think in general the men’s sexual desire is normalized regardless of how high or low. But we can’t negate that men are expected to naturally have higher sexual desire, and so when a woman surpasses the man in that respect, the woman is othered. It is because of that sexual script, why we are seen as weird, not in contrast to it. Acknowledging all these societal sexual scripts are interesting, even though I don’t fit into them. My experience doesn’t negate the general society’s expectations.

    I definitely relate to you enjoying learning about ADHD. I'd heard OCD joked about a lot, but actually studying it as part of my Psychology A-Level (along with depression and schizophrenia) gave me a completely different understanding of what it looks like and how hard it can be to live with. However, that also means that whenever I hear someone joke about having OCD, I want to cry "No, you don't, you just like being neat!" It's my equivalent of the "It's not a pun, it's a play on words!" scene from Futurama.

    In regards to the "doubts" question: my own experience with that is that I've always had doubts throughout my relationships but chosen to acknowledge those thoughts then move on OR talk about it with my partner. It also depends on what those doubts are about. Are the doubts caused by wandering thoughts of "are we completely compatible?" or are they serious and recurring thoughts of "this specific thing they do is really upsetting me and I'm having doubts because of it"? If it's the former, I would acknowledge them and investigate if there's anything more but, if not, just move on from them. If it's the latter, that would be something to seriously investigate and bring up with your partner.

As someone in a 5 year relationship with a wonderful partner I find that my anxiety causes so much doubt regarding the health of our relationship and the long term, even though there’s no real reason behind those feelings.

    Maybe it would be easier to bring it up casually and start with risk-free examples such as celebrities. So when it can be dropped into conversation casually e.g. that someone in something you are watching is hot. Also maybe focusing on him first - "do you find x attractive?" or naming the top 5 celebs you each find attractive or who your teenage crushes were. I don't know if you would have such conversations already, but might be somewhere to start if not?

    For the trans woman not able to orgasm with a partner, I wonder if that might be related to dysphoria, and having another person watching her or with her. Being in a longer term relationship (if that's something she's interested in) might help with that. In a long term relationship you have more time to become more comfortable around your parnter, and your partner has time to learn how your body works and what kinds of touch you like best. Either way, I'd recommend communicating before sex starts, like Hannah suggested, that you usually don't orgasm with partnered sex, but you can still enjoy it, and communicate throughout about what feels good physically and emotionally, so you and your partner can both be comfortable and enjoy yourselves.

    About doubts: I know that we're told that you should "just know" or "just feel it" when it comes to romantic partners but I believe that when you're having negative feelings, you should always look at the facts. What I mean by that is asking yourself questions like where do these doubts come from. Are there actually issues in your current relationship or maybe something happened in your past relationships that hardwired you to for example expect to be abandoned at a certain point and your brain is trying to protect itself from it. Another one is has anything changed in the relationship that made you feel doubts. Maybe your partner is treating you differently or you've developed a routine you're not happy with. These things can and should be addressed with your partner because you shouldn't feel like it's your fault that you're having these thoughts and therefore you must suck it up and deal with them alone. I've struggled a lot with commitment in the past because of my abandonment and trust issues (still working on those lol) and I found that talking to my partner honestly and going through it together, as a team, really helped and made our relationship stronger. I know, who would've thought communication is good 😅 But seriously, being vulnerable is a sign of strength, it shows your partner that you trust them and makes them feel more confident to be vulnerable with you as well so let them be there for you and tackle your issues together. Good luck to everyone! ❤

    I have my degree in Interpersonal Communication and when I hear you talk about John Gottmann, my heart skipped a little beat. He also did incredible studies on the Four Horseman of the Apocalypse of negative communication and if the relationship would be happy and sustainable.

    I love you Hannah and love your vids so much! However while I do understand the point of ”your first time with a new person is always a first time” feels more like stab than comfort. I have had people say this to me before when I have managed to get the courage out and talk about my fears and it feels extremely belitteling and like my feeling of fear is not serious or doesn’t matter. Just wanna bring this up that this is not that good of a comfort

    There have been some small scale studies in the middle East that suggest fennel seeds are helpful for PMS mood stuff. I think it's a folk remedy there? I figured it couldn't do me any harm so tried it out and have found it makes a huge difference to me. Not sure if it would help with full on PMDD, but it might be worth giving it a try. I was at my wit's end when I tried it as I have a really short cycle and fairly severe PMS (wiping me out energy wise for one week in three and despair and weeping for 1-3 days pre period). So long as I remember to take it I barely get any PMS symptoms any more. I just get it in capsule form as I am not a huge fan of the flavour.

    To the person who is pregnant, please please PLEASE, all of you having babies, go on a paediatric first aid course. In the UK St John's Ambulance offer a course for £450. That sounds like so much money but it's life changing information. £450 to save your baby's life. It's worth every single penny and so few parents have the knowledge of how to save a child's life. Sorry to rant, I just work in childcare and have heard far too many stories + have seen far too many parents go to A&E unnecessarily because they don't have the basic knowledge of how to handle a situation. Rant over - best thing you could do during pregnancy ☺️

    i’m only 24, but if i heard that someone my age was dating a 19 year old, my initial reaction would be “ew.” & id be worried for her. i know i personally have NOTHING in common with a 19 year old. i work with a few 20-21 year olds, & even then i feel like we’re from different planets.

    Can I ask why it bothers you in this context? She didn't really talk about it, she just referenced the term, so I guess I find it hard to see why that would be an issue, even as someone who has very much been there myself. I'd understand if she was going into any sort of detail, but she wasn't?

    It is valid as a young woman to be attracted to 30 year olds, but if you’re going for someone much older, you need to be mature, and understand who you are, your values, etc. it can be so easy for a young adult, 18-20ish, to be learning about who they are as an adult. And older people can take advantage of that, or even just sway your values or personality, even if it’s not intentional. I never was particularly attracted to older men, but I ended up with getting with a man that is 10 years older. But we met online, I commented to him first, and I was 22, and my personality and values were solidified. We have been married for 5 years. But if I had been any younger than 22 and graduating from college, I don’t think it would have been healthy for me to be with someone so much older.

    @banquetoftheleviathan1404 to each their own. To me, reminiscing about a shared past when you were a similar age was not important. Everyone has a different view and experiences within the years they grew up, even if they’re approximately the same age, anyway. I took it to another level, because my husband is also from England. So we only have generic childhood experiences (that are very different) to bond over lol. Our current interests, values, and beliefs were much more important to us.

    @banquetoftheleviathan1404 Fair enough, I appreciate you for saying that kindly. I totally understand that, I was worried at the time (in my last few years at college) that I would have to ‘mentor’ someone my own age (a potential boyfriend) to some extent, and I didn’t want that. I was careful to not feel belittled in my relationship with this older guy, and there are some things he knew that I don’t, but it doesn’t come up often in our daily lives, especially since we’ve been married for 5 years. Plus since he’s English and we live in the US, there’s a lot of things we both didn’t know. We both take accountability for our own tasks and responsibilities, which I think is the most important aspect to this. No one wants to nag or teach daily skills all the time.

    To the person who suffers from PMDD. So do I, I don't know if this will help at all as not everything works for everyone. At the end of November, I went on fluoxetine (antidepressant) and I have found that although I can still feel the symptoms the week before my period, they are way LESS heightened than they were before. Unfortunately for treatment, it really is trying what works for you until you find it which I know can be really frustrating. I had also been on citalopram which personally didn't work for me at all and in fact actually made my symptoms worse. Every body is different so it's just finding what works for you. What I will also say is even though PMDD is a lot more common than people think, the likelihood is you will have to be the one to do the research and educate your own GP (which I know is not at all how it should be and is super draining). I would recommend the PMDD information on the mind website. It helped me get all the information I needed and is worded so clearly. So much love. It really does suck when you go through this every single month and the world somehow expects you to get on with your life as if you're not experiencing this. Xxx
