I think I agree with everyone here - there is a time and place for such domesticity in stories that include such things as marriage and kids and all that that means but when it comes to the kind of erotica I enjoy reading, such realities are best left out or at the very least, left to one's imagination or however one envisions a happily-ever-after.
In jeans and a t-shirt, hair in a ponytail and sitting on my bed with my laptop for a few more minutes. Playing hostess to a houseful of teenage boys who are in the basement at the moment but will soon need some food and beverages. As for the horny scale, I'm at about zero :P
I know many men and women who have buckets full of 'deal breakers' when it comes to their partners and relationships. Some make sense and are justified while others are just plain ridiculous and immature. For me, the idiosyncrasies are what elevates a good relationship to a better one. No one is perfect and the longer you are with someone, the more comfortable you get around them so it's only a matter of time before your 'habits' are finally revealed to your partner.

I'm usually very easy going and actually LOVE when a relationship shifts into that comfortable nook where you can settle into who you really are rather than keep up the illusion of perfection where it appears you don't shit, shave, fart or whatever - how bloody exhausting! As long as my man treats me well, is respectful, has a sense of humour and is as invested in making the relationship work as I am, I'm willing to accept and work with just about any silly or annoying habit he has as I would expect him to with mine.

And for any issues that may be more than you bargained for initially, communication is paramount. Talking about it, sharing your wishes and/or needs sometimes makes all the difference. Ultimately, the key is to find that person who loves you inspite of your imperfections, habits, quirks, idiosyncrasies. They are the keepers.

It depends on HOW bad. Sometimes it just takes a good venting to someone who cares about me over a few glasses of wine. Sometimes, a long meditative walk or hike alone to process things works fine while other times, if it's really bad, a good cry while praying for morning usually does the trick.
I've said it several times in various threads on here, a relationship, ANY relationship takes TWO people to make it work. One person can not carry it and especially save it alone unless they're seeking martyrdom. I know this all too well. On the flip side, if one takes the time to really think about things objectively, one would realize that it also takes TWO people to break a relationship. I agree with lafayettemister that cheating is rarely just about sex and it most definitely is NOT just about men not doing right by their women. Goes both ways. I think communication is critical to any successful relationship, that and honesty. I fear that withouth them, a relationship has a limited shelf life before it expires.
Sex in the City 2 (the movie) is playing on one of the movie networks but I've already seen it a few times so I'm not paying much attention right now.
At this very moment, I'm in a pair of yoga pants, tshirt and hoodie, bare feet, hair is long and straight (was at the salon earlier). Finally sat down on the sofa in the living room with my laptop and the television on in the background and waiting...I really hate waiting by the way...

for me, it really is the little things. i mean, it's great to be swept off your feet, but those reminders that someone is thinking of you on a day to day basis are lovely. we've always had a fun little game here where we'll leave little notes for each other around the house in fun little places. sometimes i'll go pick flowers from our garden and put them on her night stand, little thoughtful things like that. i like your little love notes in the pocket best, quite honestly. that kind of stuff always gives me a little boost, so i'm voting for it.


Bang on

I've always told men that women aren't as complicated as they make them out to be (well, at least most of us aren't). Most women just want to be wanted, top of mind and appreciated and that is usually achieved through the small, itty-bitty things sprinkled through out each day rather than some grand and expensive gesture once or twice a year. For me, the small but sweet details keep me smling and happy and makes me want to reciprocate all the more. That kind of attention, at least for me, is like engaging in all day foreplay - and you know what THAT means
I can't and won't speak for all women but for me personally, a story just doesn't feel complete until a man explodes his warm nectar. Of course, I would expect to read the woman receiving the same opportunity

perfection is boring..i loved flawed people

but having said that...i dont think u have a person that is perfect for you..that would just set you up for failure & unrealistic expectations

what u look for is a lover who makes u laugh, loves a GOOD romp in bed & is loyal

the rest is all icing...


Excellent response

If I'm honest, all of the men I've had any kind of relationship with must have had something about them that made me think they were my perfect mate at that time in my life, at least in the beginning, otherwise I wouldn't have given them the time of day. Now that I've grown a little wiser and been through some interesting experiences, my attitude regarding dating and especially relationships have changed for the better I think, more realistic but definitely still have a hint of happily-ever-after for the cheezy romantic in me

Besides, 'perfect' people frighten me!
Okay, just realized I spelled toilet as toilette - ugh! I guess the French girl in me needed to make her mark

anyone who says otherwise is not only wrong, but they're aliens (and probably don't own cats). smile

1. Would you like your man to wear panties or thongs? If yes, Should they be yours or get him some? Also Daily or every now and then?
A: Unless its part of a silly dare, neither. I am not one of those women who gets off on my man wearing panties - mine or otherwise.

2. Would you like your man to be shaven? if yes where? All over, Legs ect?
A: I LOVE facial hair of all types on my man although shaven is acceptable on occassion :P As for the rest of him, I do like some body grooming and trimming but prefer him to stay away from doing a full-on shave anywhere on his body where he might be mistaken for a little boy - I like my man to look like a man.

3. Would it be a turn on if your man was bi?
A: If he was a casual encounter or a FWB, I think it would be a turn on for me but if it was someone with whom I was in a long-term relationship, I think it would eventually bother me if only because I would worry about competing against both women AND men!

4. What would you do if you caught your man on gay or trans porn?
A: I would talk to him about it and try to get him to open up about why he is watching that genre of porn and what is it that turns him on about it.

5. Would you want to have anal sex with your man? You or him?
A: Yes please to both!

6. What do girls think of butt plugs and chasity on their man?
A: Not sure about the chasity but I am all for butt plugs and anal toys for both myself and my man.
Today is my son's 14th birthday and I'm reminded of how fast time goes by and how incredibly blessed I am to be his mom. It's that simple smile
I find this post hilarious yet interesting! For me, I'm both a folder and a scruncher. If I do #1, I tend to fold neatly and use just enough paper to get the job done BUT (no pun intended!) if I do a #2, I'm a scruncher and tend to use much more than I probably need. I'm not sure about the theories regarding what that says about a person but what the hell do I know?

Now that I think about it, I'm curious about how people replace their toilette paper - with the flap over or under! I can't imagine what THAT says about a person but I know it has been the cause of some serious discussions among couples, lol.

P.S. For the record, toilet paper should be replaced with the flap OVER :P

a real live penis every time..there is NO dildo that feels as good as the real deal

however a good vibrator is a necessity smile


Great answer
Love it! I absolutely LOVE a man who can cum more than once and starting with oral is always the perfect warm-up

Oh wow! I can't say that I've actually thrown up whenever I've engaged in deep throating - I definitely gag and sometimes have come close to throwing up but always stop myself before it gets to the point of no return. Personally, I find that when I lay on my back with my head over the edge of the bed (or chair or wherever), works the best with minimal gagging - the only thing HE has to remember is to remove his cock once in a while so I can take a breath! I'm still trying to 'perfect' it myself so unfortunately, that's about the best advice I can give you. I'll certainly keep this thread on my radar as I'm curious what others may have to say about it smile
I've had both and have enjoyed both equally. For me personally, it's always been more about the man attached to the penis than the penis itself.

Now I've read everything I thought my level of sarcasm was well established around here already. If not, I'll use you to reestablish such.

I suppose I'm just imagining how you and JohnC carried on for nearly 3 months earlier this year, all over this forum? You weren't willingly cheating (even if only cyber-wise), with a fellow who was claiming all along that he was happily married to someone else?

The way you both were parading around here constantly mimicking each other was enough to make even me - gag on a near daily basis. And now that you've seen the light - you are suddenly elevated up on a pedestal of your own design, to call out all other sinners? Gimme a fucking break already.

Knock it off Belle, hypocrisy doesn't look all that appealing on you.


I'm not sure why you felt the need to centre ME out as you did given the plethora of sinners on here. If you want to play moral-cop, I suggest you stay consistent and call out EVERY other person who appears to speak out of both sides of their mouths otherwise it just looks like you want my attention.

Once again, my apologies for having offended one of the great offenders - I didn't realize one could go around the forums saying the things you have and get a hall pass simply by cloaking it in 'sarcasm'. Good to know and duley noted. Perhap the Lush powers- that-be might consider creating a new badge for such personalities.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
I find it ironic not to mention hypocritical that I'm being called 'judgmental' regarding my comment on this thread by two people who have been known to cast their own judgements in past threads.

I wasn't attacking or singling out any one person in particular but making a personal statement which, the last time I checked, I am entitled to do and shouldn't be chastised for it. Maybe I live by a different moral code than some people on here but if you've read any of my past postings, you will see that I am also a woman who believes in the saying 'to each their own'.

You want to cheat on your partner? Knock yourself out but I don't have to agree with it. Don't want an opinion that is not in favor of what you're doing? Then maybe posting it in the forums isn't very wise OR put a disclaimer that only those who are okay with cheating may respond. In either case, forgive me for expressing my opinion on a PUBLIC forum and especially for not celebrating infidelity.

Perhaps someone should consider policing the rest of the threads to ensure that no one else is ever offended again by opposing opinions and/or Lushies who appear to pass judgements. I suspect whoever that lucky person is, will be VERY busy.

And for the record, I have never been cheated on but have known many people and families who have been terribly hurt by it.

After spending a whole day outside at a soccer tournament with a cold wind blowing on me for 8 hours, I'm indulging in a hot cappuccino. Mmmmmm....
Hmm interesting. I don't think I've ever thought of it before, lol. I think I need to take a better look the next time I get out of the shower or perhaps ask my partner which one he thinks I look most like :-)

hold her, caress her.. take it nice and slow. talk to her, make her laugh. entertain her with mindless babble which has nothing to do with where you are or what you are doing and eventually, hopefully she will snuggle up and relax in your arms.


Agreed. I have always found tenderness, plenty of sincere reassurance and lots of laughter have always worked to relax me with my partner. Any man who does that will most certainly be rewarded
