A “chapstick lesbian” refers to someone who exhibits some butch or masculine traits, but they don’t fully fit into the typical masculine/butch stereotype. They may present as slightly more androgynous or lean toward a soft-masc aesthetic, for example. The term “chapstick lesbian” is often used to contrast the term “lipstick lesbian,” which refers to someone who presents as more traditionally feminine.

What are the signs that a guy is interested in you?
I don't know if the guy I like likes me back. I got the quiz result "He might be forming a crush" but that doesn't make me feel very confident. I want him to ask me out but I don't know how to tell if he's interested in me. He's my friend and I don't want to ruin our friendship if he doesn't like me back. How do I tell if he likes me?

My boyfriend is always moody
So my bf and I have been dating for more than a year now. He was really sweet and always taking initiative. But few months ago, we quit the same job and we were happy about it because the job was too demanding and we decided to find a new workplace.

So while jobless, we rarely see each other but we do communicate through FaceTime almost everyday. However, 2 months after that, he started feeling really down. It’s like he felt hopeless and worthless for not having a job and while he does apply for many jobs online but the ones who reached out are not the ones he wanted. So he went into quiet mode. I contacted him but he did not answer and I texted him but he did not reply until after an hour. He replied me saying, “Sorry, I’m tired. Let’s talk tomorrow”. And guess what? The next day he went quiet as well. So just to let yall know that this happened months ago but it’s still ongoing.

I’ve even talked to him about it and he said that it’s a personal thing and I have nothing to do with it. I told him that I feel so isolated and neglected when he does that because it felt like he was pushing me away and it’s not fair to leave me alone wondering when he will back to me.

So fast forward to today, he still does that thing sometimes and to be honest, I’m tired of it. I talked to him many times about it and I even offered many solutions such as telling him exactly what to text if he doesn’t have the mood to talk to me and in return, I won’t ask a thing and give him space. But when it happened again, he did not do any of that.

I love him, I really do. And I feel happy with him but every time this happens, I feel like I’m always the one putting the effort to work things out while he’s just enjoying the ride. I even thought of breaking up with him once or twice and I cried thinking of that. I need you guys advice on this. What should I do?
