Post must this be the Yoda... understand I do not... Gingerbread Man fresh I like... post topic sense makes none.
You must be willing to work with those you allow into your life. That being said, don't for one second settle for anything less than what you deserve. A good man (or woman) will work equally as hard to bring you joy and happiness. The reason you must endure the shitty ones first is so you appreciate the good one later.
I know you probably didn't want to hear that... but as a woman on her 3rd (and final) marriage... I had more than my share of jerks and it really makes me appreciate my wonderful husband even more. Is he perfect... no... but he's as close to perfect as I'm ever going to get... he treats me like a queen... spoils me rotten... and never makes me question his love.
I hope you don't give up on relationships... they are really worth it.
Remember...
“Life is not a journey to the grave with intentions of arriving safely in a pretty well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, champagne in one hand, chocolate bar in the other, in a body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming ... FUCK YEAH! What a ride!”
For me personally, it was a term used as a put-down toward another woman that was worse than being called a whore, slut, or even a skank. I don't use it in my writing as I find it crude, but I know that some authors love using it. I never bring an author's score down for using that word. That's just disrespectful.
If you want hot erotic steamy sex, The Sleeping Beauty Chronicles by Anne Rice, but I warn anyone not familiar with them... it has MF, FF, MM, BDSM, gangbangs, and much more. It starts hard & never stops. XXX and should really come with asbestos gloves as it's just so fucking hot. It's hotter than 50 Shades
A great series with a limited 3rd person POV is the Harry Potter Series.
Another great series is The Hunger Games.
If you want a good laugh, any of the Stephanie Plum books by Janet Evonavitch. I'm not ashamed when I burst out laughing and people wonder what I'm reading.
I'm also enjoy The Pretty Little Liars and The Lying Game series by Sara Sheppard (both have a TV show on ABC Family) Both series aren't much like the shows, but are great reads.
Most likely not as he pushed me into losing mine before I was really ready. As it turned out... he wanted to lose his before his 19th birthday which meant I had to lose mine before I wanted. Since I'm not sure how my life would have been different. It might be the one change I would risk in my life. I won't admit my age as it will violate Lush rules.
I've fantasized about it... but I've never done it. I guess I'm just too shy in person... plus... what would he want from me later?
More fun to be a fantasy.
I had to read the posts to understand the thread. That being said........
<------------------------ I'm not really blue!
I selected the image because of my screen name. I chose not to use a real picture of me for personal reasons. I rarely assume anyone's picture is really them. Just easier that way
When I was dating after my 2nd divorce. I went to get my pictures taken and thus I was "extra" dressed up. A guy saw me & asked me out. I still dressed nice, classy blouse, slacks, styled my hair, make-up, and he questioned me about the "dress" I was wearing. When I explained it was for a picture our date went south really fast. Had he asked me to wear that dress... I probably would have. But to assume that's my "normal" attire was ridiculous. A few years later when my husband & I started dating, I did "dress-up" for him, but over time we did relax. Now we've been together for 5 years, happily married... and we still dress-up for a special night out. I love it when he puts a little effort in his appearance and I make a point of telling him how much I appreciate it by giving him genuine complements.
Maybe our men just need to be reminded that we like it when they look good.
Since I lost my virginity in my mom's bed while she was out... I'd rather be in a nearby room. I mean... I'm a married woman now so really... if they are all that bothered by it... I'll just try to be quieter next time... lol.
Cotton thong. I wear the cotton because of how they breathe, and the thong because it makes me feel so sexy & are just so comfortable without the annoying panty lines.
The only time I don't wear my thongs is when that bitch "Aunt Flo" is in town. Then I wear hipsters.
I have started sex a bit dry, but I'm normally pretty wet, but I have experienced the sensation you described... and it doesn't last long but it is intense & amazing. The only down side for me is starting this way means I probably won't cum from vaginal sex. However, my hubby never leaves me without an orgasm as he'll just eat my pussy until I do cum.
