I have made contact with less than 10 people on here. I'm new, but here's basically how I choose who to talk to in general on the Internet:
-I generally only talk to women, This isn't exclusively about sex. I just find that women have more interesting things to say than guys. I have no interest in talking about sports and drinking beer and stupid shit like that. lol
-Pictures are generally not a selling point for me. Many profiles have pictures that were swiped off the Internet and posted deceptively as the person. If the model in the picture isn't the same person in all of your pics, I can safely assume that none of those pics is of you. If someone is being deceptive, I will not contact them, nor will I talk to them if they contact me. Otherwise pics are unimportant in the decision making process.
-Unlike the OP, I prefer to read about a person before talking to them. Sometimes there are things that pleasantly surprise me, sometimes there are things that turn me off. The more information there is, the more I have to help me decide if it''s worth the trouble. It's good to know beforehand rather than later. I realize my hypocrisy, I just haven't had time to fill out my profile fully yet.
-The way that I've chosen who to contact on Lush is very simple. It has to do with the forums. If someone has made me laugh, said something thought-provoking, clever, sincere, charming, kind, playful, etc. I am likely to check out her profile. If I continue to like what I read, I will contact her. What it boils down to for me is if I like who she really is as a person, not just the stuff on the surface, I will contact her. I have only contacted those who I've met through the forums here.

It wouldn't bother me any, but I do know that some guys who would run away in fear. Unfortunately, that's the reality of our world.
I did try dating someone with a kid a while back. I knew she had a kid when I met her and it didn't matter to me. It turned out that we weren't really right for each other, but we've remained friends though.
Let your friend know that that particular guy is a douchebag. Don't let her assume that all guys are.

Thanks for the replies, everyone. I had an ulterior motive for asking, but it is not the one that you probably suspect.
I stumbled across a couple of groups dedicated to this "fetish". I got the impressions that these groups contained no actual women at all. What I suspected was going on were there were bitter guys pretending to be women posting pictures of their ex-girlfriends/wives in some twisted attempt at getting revenge on them.
The responses here have confirmed what I suspected:
1. It's very unlikely that a woman would be flattered by this, especially from a stranger.
2. Most women would probably be offended or turned off by it.
3. The likelihood that a whole group of women would actually post full body shots (face included) to strangers for this purpose is highly unlikely.
I apologize for the ruse, I didn't want to skew the results, by listing my suspicions. I appreciate the replies.

I know that it's not part of this site, but I still want to know how common it is.

I used to have a friend who liked to have her photos "painted" by guys online. In case you are unfamiliar with the term, here's how it works:
Basically she would take sexy pictures of herself, send them to guys in some way, the guys would print them, stroke off thinking about her, cum on the printed picture, then take a picture of the result. She would get off on it.
While I didn't share that fetish with her, I'll admit she coaxed me into it once, and it was kinda fun, but mostly because she and I had a playful connection that she didn't share with her "artist friends". It was fun because I knew her, and she wasn't close to those other guys. I don't think that it would have been that fun for me if it was for a stranger.
I always wanted to know how common this fetish is. So, is that a turn on for any of you? Has anyone ever done that for you? Would you want anyone to do that for you? Was it flattering or not? Would it matter if it was a stranger or close friend? Things along that lines.
Was she unique in her fetish or is this a common turn on?

I have never done that, nor ever had the urge to. They are just boring pieces of fabric unless there is a body in them. I don't know what the damn fascination is with them for other guys.

This may sound odd, but he might be mimicking guys from porn. Guys in pornos tend to self-stimulate when switching positions, etc. I guess it's to keep themselves from going soft. He may have gotten the impression that the practice is normal from watching too much porn.
Then again, it might just be a simple thing like he wants to be his hardest for you when you actually go at it.
I wouldn't be offended, more than likely the behavior is being done to impress you and not to replace you. I would, as suggested above, grab it before he gets the chance and keep him going until you get to the next "step".
Be offended only if he leaves the room and finishes without you, which I seriously doubt will happen.

1. You need to talk to him about things, that's the only way that you're going to know what's up between the two of you.
2. Not to be rude, but why has this been going on for 2 and 1/2 years without being addressed?

If you've been through a rough situation that causes you to fear interacting with others, then your choice is pretty clear.
1. You can continue to be afraid of people and life, sit in your house playing videogames and being sad that you don't have any real human connection with others, which is pretty clear that you actually want from your romantic date description. You can spend the next 30-40 years doing that, whacking off to porn because there is no one real in your life, and kick yourself for being lonely, afraid, etc.
Or. . .
You could find a therapist/Psychologist/counselor/whatever they call them in your part of the world. It's that person's job to help people get through situations just like the one you have.
Your first and only relationship was traumatic for you. Understandably, it is very hard for you to trust anyone, including yourself, assuming that you question your own judgment after that first relationship. A good therapist can help you sort out all of those mixed feelings that you have and help you to make good judgments, so that you can learn to trust your own judgments again.
As for your online lady friend; unless a miracle happens for both of you, more than likely your relationship is doomed. I'm sorry to be so blunt, but think about this for a second. What happens when one person in a relationship is afraid of intimacy or commitment? The relationship usually ends, oftentimes badly. One person cannot be strong enough to hold two people together forever.
Knowing that, how do you think a relationship in which both people are scared will turn out?
If you do really care about this woman. Both of you need to address your fears, get outside help, and communicate with each other. Being cold, hiding from each other, etc will never work. You two do have one big thing in common, your track records/trust issues. Oddly, it could be the one thing that could make it work, while at the same time being the most likely thing to tear it apart.
I can't tell you to try to make it work or tell you to break things off with her, but I can tell you one thing; you need to tell her why you are being cold towards her. Think about how you would feel if she did that to you. It's unfair to brush her aside and let her think that its solely her fault. Understand?
I hope this helps you some. I just know that sitting around your house is not going to bring you any happiness in life. That's not a path you want to stay on. Find a way off it as soon as you can.
Think about it this way:
If you have a toothache, you would go see a dentist.
If you broke a bone, you would get it X-Rayed.
If you have a phobia/emotional troubles, you go to a therapist.
It's not something you can fix yourself because you cannot be objective about yourself. Find someone who can help you.

"If she smokes, she pokes." lol
This is one of the times where I am actually a hypocrite when it comes to something.
I used to smoke; cigarettes, cigars, and pipe tobacco, but you know what? Even when I was a smoker, it is/was somewhat of a turn-off if a woman smoked. The kissing an ashtray analogy is pretty accurate. It's not a deal-breaker for me, but it definitely detracts from the fun of being intimate. That smell/taste is constantly invading the moment.
Tobacco in various forms tends to smell best before burning, less so while burning, even less so after being inhaled, then exhaled, and worst as residual odor. In other words, if that smoke has been in someone's hair, mouth, clothing, etc. for quite a while, that smell/taste becomes worse with time.
There are various grades of tobacco. Expensive cigars and pipe tobacco are made from much higher quality tobacco than cigarettes and cheap cigars. Expensive cigars are pure tobacco, whereas the cheap stuff is chemically treated. That's why some tobacco might smell better to someone than other types. A cigar isn't always a cigar. :P
Anyway, to answer the side question about pot. It doesn't matter to me one way or another, actually. As long as the woman isn't a complete burnout from smoking too much too often, I'm cool with it either way. It's not my thing, but I don't see it as being harmful really. The smell doesn't bother me probably because, unlike cigarettes, the person doesn't do it habitually all day long. There isn't as much smoke residue.

The Friends analogy has nothing to do with what you mentioned. I do understand your point. However, it seems that you've misunderstood completely. So, to clarify:
What it means is that different people have different likes and dislikes. Those likes and dislikes are neither good nor bad, they just are. Personal taste is just that; personal.
The reason that I used that analogy was that I've encountered ferociously straight people who claim that everyone is straight and that any deviation from that is lying to one's "true self". I've also encountered fiercely gay/bi people who claim that EVERYONE is gay/bi, and anyone who claims to be "straight" is just lying. Both "beliefs"are completely wrong. It's black or white thinking; a false dichotomy. Either this or that; no grey area.
It also smacks of hasty generalization. In other words:
Dumb straight person says: "I am straight, never had a gay thought ever, therefore everyone else is that way also."
Dumb gay/bi person says: "I am gay/bi, was maybe in the closet, therefore everyone else is that way also.
And just so this is not misunderstood. The bad people I've mentioned are a small part of their respective communities and I do not attribute that idiotic behavior narrow-minded thinking to the each group as a whole. :P
I was simply answering the question asked by Nicola. She asked if I had ever been with another guy, and I haven't. I have no interest in men, just the same way I have no interest in watching that TV show. I used the analogy to point out that I'm not one of those guys above who said, "Ewwww" or "HELL NOOOOO". It's also very silly to judge someone for his or her personal taste. I would be a complete dick if I told you that because you like your favorite movie that you are evil, or that I claimed that you secretly liked romantic comedies no matter what you said to the contrary. Yet, we do that to people based upon sexual/romantic attraction. The analogy is accurate, it's the baggage that society adds that is wrong.
See my point now?

Three things:
1. Why did you put the word "straight" in quotes in the topic name?
2. Why do people feel the need to be drunk or stoned to try something new or ? If you want to do it, just do it. If it's something that appeals to you wouldn't you want to fully experience it instead of not being able to remember most of it?
3. As for me, I have no interest in my own gender. It's kinda like the show "Friends". Some people enjoyed watching it, but I had no interest in it. It's just not my thing.

Even though you've asked the gals, I'm going to chime in anyway. The advice above is spot on. Ask any longtime couple how they met and almost every one of them started with, "Hi, my name is. . . " You don't need fancy pick-up lines to meet someone.
It sounds like more than anything that you're making this into a HUGE deal in your mind. Sure, all of us get nervous, but you may be placing a lot of importance on not messing this up. Just relax, take a deep breath, and just say hi. You've done it a million times in your life, this one is no different. It's only different in your mind. I'm sure that she's stumbled for words in her life also. We all have.
Since you're obviously not in high school anymore, I doubt that she's going to fault you, or make fun of you, if you don't say everything 100% perfectly like a radio announcer. She's a human being, you're a human being. You have something in common. So go talk to her already. No biggie. :)

Depression, and other medical conditions, can also cause someone to lose interest in sex, even during the process. Some medications, lack of proper sleep, stress, a guilty conscience because he's cheating on you, or he could be gay prostitute and not really an electronics guy.
Now that I've properly scared you, take a deep breath and relax.
The reason that I went overboard with that was to make a point. Unless he's willing to talk about it, or see a doctor, you might not know for certain what is going on. We can all speculate for a million years, but it won't change the situation. He needs to be willing to address this with you. If not with you, than with someone else; a doctor, a close friend, or a family member.
Does that make sense?

I had a conversation with a friend about this. She and I were discussing toys and she brought up a famous website where one can buy toys among other things. She said that she was treating herself to a new toy and since I was stressed out at the time, she suggested that I should buy one for myself.
Basically, women have really cool toys like rabbits, men have lame toys and limited options.
Guys have:
-Blow up dolls which look and, I would assume, feel nothing like a real woman.
- Pocket pussies, which look more like a real pussy, but really don't feel like one. They also can be messy to clean up.
-Fleshlights, which I've read feel nice, but start getting pricey. I'm sure the messy clean up applies to this as well.
-BSDM stuff. Probably not much fun without a partner. So that leaves out single guys, maybe.
-Real Dolls. Supposedly the closest thing to having sex wirh a real woman that is currently technologically possible. Very pricey. THOUSANDS of dollars to purchase one, without being able to try it out first. I'm assuming the mess would be an issue. So would hiding it when not in use as to not be embarrassed, as well as lugging that much dead weight aroiund before and after use.
-Vibrators, mentioned above are probably fun, for those who like that. For those who don't, they are pointless.
I'm overgeneralizing for the sake of brevity, but you get the idea. My friend bought a new rabbit, I bought lube. Lube comes in handy, no pun intended.
