SEX...
Re: SEX...
Hahahaha YAY!!!!!
I want to have sex
I was quite good at that. I never got emotionally attached to ANY guy until Dave. That's how I knew he was the one. Right from the very first time I met him, I was all "Do not talk to my man! I will cut a biitch!" when before that, I was like "Meh. Go do what you want dude, I am the hottest girl you're ever going to be with, but it'll be funny to watch you try to hit on other people"
I have never been cheated on, and I attribute it to that attitude, lmao.
Hmm. I never had sex with anybody but Matt, but before I met him, I did try making out with one of my best guy friends for a while. He was really hot (But turned out to be a terrible kisser! Who knew?!), it had been one of those simmering attractions for a while, and basically we both needed to get some action.
It ended badly. For a few weeks there, it was okay, because it looked like a relationship and felt like a relationship. He would call and text me all the time, sent me flowers on my birthday, we'd talk for hours, he'd come visit on the weekends, he never let me pay for anything when we went out, we'd make out for hours. But he a) wouldn't commit to an actual, technical relationship for some reason, and b) was waaaaay too needy.
I ended up going on vacation and turning my phone off for a week, and when I came back, I started not returning calls or texts too often. Things got super-awkward. He went to the college where I now work, so every once in a while he drops in to visit people and comes to say hi. It's incredibly uncomfortable. I kind of wish that we'd left well enough alone and just stayed friends.
So that's my two cents, FWIW.
I had a cuddly Plan B guy in the background when I met Matt. Plan B was several years younger than me (I was 31 and he was 23 when we met) and we had met four years before and gone out on a couple of dates. We were never a couple. We IM'd, texted, and talked on the phone during the whole time. Whenever I wasn't dating someone, he would come around. Near the end we finally broke down and did IT/humped/doinked/did the nasty/hooked up/whatever you want to call it. That's when it got tough.
The last time we saw each other, Plan B started talking about how he could see us together for the long haul, but he wasn't ready for the relationship yet - just give him a few months to work through things. OK, whatever. Then I met Matt, and we were finally going to have our first date, meeting in person for the first time. I was tired of Plan B's bullshlt and ready to move on, with or without someone else in play. I gave Plan B one last chance the night before I left to meet Matt. He totally didn't get it and did not come through. And the rest is history! Great history, if I do say so myself!
LOL! When I met Matt, he told me that pretty much every one of his exes had married the next guy she dated. He told me, "If it doesn't work out with me, at least you'll know that you're really close!"
LOLOL
oh you girls crack me up. I love you Ashley.
YOU WILL HEAR ALL ABOUT IT!!!
Indeed.
Several years ago, I was single for about a year. And I hadn't gotten any... in about a year!!!! YIKES! So an old friend of mine and I were both feeling a little, you know,
and decided to hook up. Twice that night and once in the morning HEEEEEY! And then we went and had our favorite blueberry granola pancakes for breakfast.
It totally didn't get weird between us and we still talk. He lives in Hawaii now (Navy) with his wife (an old HS friend of ours) and their two kids. Everytime he comes home, we still meet up for those dam pancakes!
So it could get work, but there's always plenty of stories where it doesn't!
And I pretty much knew I was going to be with Kevin for the rest of my life on our first date.
There's too much in here to single out and "LOL" about so ... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA (that's my out loud belly laugh)
Please don't mock the homeschooled librarian who's never had sex with anyone but her husband, but... what is "straight edge"? Is that like "straight laced"?
