I can't deal with any indicators of bad hygiene (skid marks, same tooth brush for more than 3 months, no sign of dental floss etc.). AND DON'T USE MY TOOTHBRUSH!!! Why do people think this is ok?!?!?! Don't put your mouth on my mouthwash. Don't use my razors. And don't use my deodorant. I also need a guy that showers at least once a day. I don't mind peeing while I'm in the shower, but don't take a dump. A guy did that to me once and I told his mom and then deleted both their numbers from my phone. The heat and steam from the shower combined with the stench is something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. I also don't mind farting. It happens, and I'd probably get a good laugh out of it (I'm so mature). Also, if I catch you picking your nose without a tissue nearby, I'm probably gonna wonder for the rest of the day and most of the week where the fuck those boogers went. Don't use my earbuds. Clean up after yourself. I'm somewhat of a neat freak, but I don't expect everyone to be the same. That being said, don't be a complete slob.
DO NOT toss your undies in the washing machine with mine. It freaks me out. If your day starts before mine, be considerate and don't wake me up while you get ready, unless you're waking me up to make sex. I like waking up to sex. And French toast. So if it's not sex or French toast, don't fucking wake me up. Don't erase my shows off the DVR, even if I've watched them already. Don't read my mail, as I won't read yours. I think that about sums it up. Oh...if you for some reason have the desire to use my makeup, don't touch my eyeliner or my mascara. That shit touches my eye fluids, and yours as well. Gross.
LMFAO!!!
I love it! It seems to me that it's always the little things that combine to ruin a relationship. I've been married for almost 13 years, and while I know I have plotted manslaughter many times, I'm POSITIVE my husband has plotted woman-slaughter even more! But communication is definitely key, and even more important than that, is compromise.

To add to the plethora of replies, I can relate to the frustration! I have 2 chapters of a story on Lush, both of which seemed to write themselves, they came so easily to me. When I wanted to escalate the story with a third chapter... it was like my brain chickened out. I know what I want to write, but haven't the foggiest how to write it. I won't abandon it... but I haven't attempted it in months, after hitting the writer's block.
I'm thinking of attempting something in a completely new direction, which will hopefully give me some fresh perspective to finish off the story of two characters who have come to mean a lot to me.
Good luck with your writing, too!

In writing, I hate the careless use of their/there/they're, to/too/two, your/you're, and the like.
I also tend to get extremely annoyed when an author ends a sentence with a preposition, especially in a third person narrative. I've read many stories where the language is used in the manner in which the person is speaking, which I love, because you can actually hear the voice in your head as you read. When reading some of Lush's amazing authors from the UK, for example, they have an amazing ability to portray a lovely Scottish brogue. That means you, Clum!!!
But in a third person narrative, I like the language to be clean, with proper grammar and spelling, so there is no distraction from the story.

My husband is 11 years older than I, and we've been married for 12 years today. 
We dated for a fairly long time before that, too. We have similar upbringings, and similar interests, so we seldom notice the age difference, these days. It was a far bigger gap when I was 19 and he was 30... less so, now that I'm 37 and he's 48.

I think it would have to be Sarah Attar - Saudi Arabia's first female track and field athelete, covered from head to toe, and came dead last in the 800m. 19 years old, and not just up against other countries in the world, but standing strong in the face of her own country, as well. Got a standing ovation, coming last in her foot race... but first, in so many other ways. Just amazing...

I, too, like so many here, was bullied in school. For many years, I wanted to just wipe grades 7 to 9 from my memories, altogether. I was a people-pleaser, and hated to have anyone angry with me, or not like me. I wasn't the only one of my age group, however, that spent those years of junior high in abject misery... there were others treated as horribly, or even worse, than I was. I LONGED to be able to stand up to the bullies on their behalf, but I was just weak and miserable as those others being bullied. And I was also deathly afraid of getting anyone "in trouble," or of making things worse.
It's taken every bit of the 20 years I've been in the military, plus being a mother of two, for me to gain the self-confidence to stand up to those who try to intimidate me. Because, sadly, bullies don't seem to go away, even when you reach adulthood. They're everywhere, it seems, and it dismays me that they are even here on Lush, a place I love, where I have found acceptance.
My solution, therefore, is to use your own kind nature... the part of you that doesn't want to make waves or get anyone in trouble... as a force for good. Didn't you ever see others besides yourself getting bullied, as you were as a child? Did you never want someone to please stand up and help them? Now's your chance. PLEASE report this person who is bullying you. Chances are, you aren't the only one, and you could be putting a stop to someone else's misery, as well.

I find it extremely distracting to read what could be a really good story, if the structure was only a bit better. Thanks!

This can be important. If you've been thinking about it or saw something that made you think about it. If your body is telling you to think about it. If you smell something that makes you think about it. Get where this is going? The brain is a powerful sexual tool. Even if you try to "cold start" a woman or she does herself, her brain kicks in and "primes the pump" so to speak. Then it's a matter of how well "primed" she is.
I'm definitely with CK - the brain is what makes it happen, because it's the most powerful sexual organ we have. And if I need to get myself off because I've been thinking about something (or someone) all day, then it can definitely happen in about 30 seconds, if I want it to. Also, as Shylass says, when you can do something really well, then it can get done REALLY quickly!

Evi and Maz, you guys are the perfect thing with whom to wrap up a day. Thanks so much for the comfort and inspiration.
Here's my contribution, by William Ernest Henley.
INVICTUS
Out of the night that covers me
Black as the Pit from pole to pole
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the horror of the Shade
And yet, the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me, unafraid
It matters not how strait the Gate
How charged with punishment the Scroll
I am the master of my fate
I am the captain of my soul.

I'm sorry this happened to you - usually I find people are a bit more sensitive on Lush, even when I make statements or ask questions that are considered to be silly or self-evident.
Birth control can do crazy things to a woman's hormones - I too was once on a prescription that wasn't right for me, and I was angry and crying all the time. I've since come off them altogether, due to age and the fact that I smoke (seriously high risk), and I also noticed that my sex drive went through the roof afterwards.
I hope things get better for you, soon.

I also tended to chase older men when I was younger, for the same reasons as mentioned above - less drama, better sex, more confidence. That being said, what made my relationships work the most was common ground. My husband and I are 11 years apart. He just turned 48, I'm almost 37. The age difference raised a lot of eyebrows when I was 19 and he was 30, but we've been together ever since and have been married for 12 years. We were both raised in military families and both went on to join the military, ourselves.
I guess the experience is different for everybody. Does age matter? Yes, I think it does. But does it mean you can't have a long-term, meaningful relationship with equal partners? No, I don't think it matters like that. You have to use your head, while you're following your heart... easier said than done, eh?

If she doesnt ask you, then your not being dishonest, your just not telling her everything, its different.
If like me you feel like you have to be honest, then you should be able to trust this girl with your secret, if she's the type of girl to go and tell everyone, is she really the person you want to give your virginity to?
I'm with Jayne... sex, no matter who it's with, or for what reasons, is as intimate and personal as it gets. You don't give it to just anybody, especially the first time. However, admitting it AFTER the act is no shame... especially if she's in 7th heaven, breathing heavily, and has just had the sweetest, most attentive lover EVER, make her feel like a zillion bucks... ;)

I once read a fantastic how-to article with a hilarious, step-by-step guide to oral sex (written by a man). I didn't think I was that bad a practitioner of oral sex, but when I tried all of his suggestions... well, let's just say it was a memorable evening!
They can be summed up like this:
1. Eye contact is essential
2. Hum a bit
3. LOTS of saliva - the wetter the better
4. Play with and lick his balls
5. Massage the taint area (hard ridge of flesh between his anus and his penis)
6. Gently insert a well-lubricated finger up his anus
7. Talk to him - tell him how much you want him, how wonderful he tastes, how much you love sucking his cock
8. Feel his body reactions - listen to his breathing, feel the way his balls tuck closer to his body when he's close to orgasm, and DON'T STOP what you're doing!
9. Accept his ejaculate - whether you spit or swallow, allow him to finish in your mouth
10. Above all, don't stay silent or treat it as a chore. It's an extraordinarily intimate act - a wonderful gift to him. Make him feel good, and he will more than likely return the favour and make YOUR eyes roll back in your head!
Anyway... this is paraphrasing from what I remember, but I wasn't able to make MY husband come before, either. Now, I can...
