I dont know if its just me or its a combination of both people involved

Is it my manly cave man instinct telling me to move on because I already "conquered" the woman?

Theres women I want to hook up with, and then theres women I want to get to know. Most all of them I hook up with if the chance comes about. It usually happens fast.

But Ive been involved with one person for a while now and it just seems like theres nothing to talk about, it just goes stale.

Ive noticed with myself that this has been a reoccurring thing. I get involved with a chick, we both hit it off and were hanging out and doing stuff together, and then it just gets old.

I think she really likes me but I think about how fast we hooked up and all her guys friends and she says shes not like other girls.. Just about all the female friends I have, Ive hooked up with at one point.

The thing is, shes always talking about her friends and this and that.. I dont talk to her about any of my friends.

I know it sounds like im not being fair here, but shes always talking about one guy friend or another... I never bring up any of my female friends like she does and it makes me less interested.

Any sort of advice from both guys and gals would be nice.

for the record im in my later 20s and shes in her earlier 20s, both of age to drink.

Well, congratulations on being able to drink. I mean, what an accomplishment!

For real, though. It sounds like you have sex so fast that you don't ever get to value the person.

Keep your d*ck in your pants a bit longer, as in MONTHS longer, get out of your own head, take time to know someone, and maybe you'll learn how to care about someone.

If you really care about someone, it almost never gets stale.

Relationships are work.

Don't start a garden if you won't pull weeds and water.

I know exactly what you mean, but honestly Ive never heard of waiting that long or even seeing it from someone I know.

I guess Im a part of the "people dont have time for that" generation.

I may sound like a doosh by saying that. This is a forum and honestly Im expecting people to say what they feel with no filter. This is a discussion after all.

I didnt make the first move in this case, is that a red flag for anyone?

I've never been in a relationship where things have gotten stale, for me. So I guess I can't really identify.

Honestly, your first post in this thread made you sound more like a douche.

Saying you're part of whatever "generation" just sounds like an excuse. Just because you've never heard of waiting that long doesn't mean it wouldn't work or that plenty of people don't do it.

What you have now is sex with no intimacy. So of course you get tired of the physical because it can't be sustained.

Gotta agree with Wmns4life on this one. Also, pursue more hobbies/interests, and pursue women who have more hobbies/interests that do not involve:

1. Getting drunk
2. Getting laid

That way, you will have more to talk about.

This is also a follower mentality. OP, stop doing what everyone else is doing, e.g. ONS, if it's not working for you.
