    I wish I'd pierced my eyebrow back before I had to get a respectable job and can no longer get/have one! :weep:

    I reckon you realize now that when stuff like that comes along, it's not temptation but a gift from God, eh? :)

    Wish I'd majored in art in school and followed my original plan when I joined the Navy to use the education benefits to get a commercial art degree.

    Then again, had I done that, I'd probably be drawing advertisments and hating humanity.

    I dropped out of Uni when I had my big depression in the 90s. I wish I hadn't, or that when I got my act together, I hadn't chosen 'something more practical'. Doing management stuff in the Arts is fun and all, but I miss the mental challenge. I want to go back and get my Master's degree, but I just can't afford it.

    Where do these women come from? I thought women were the
    "I'll only have sex with those special men I have deep feelings for" gender?
    At least that's usually their excuse for not putting out as often as they should/could.

    Yes, indeed. It took a whole fresh understanding to realize that too!


    I was a nice guy, and I listened. As a devout Christian who was different from other Christian guys at my school (I didn't force anyone to believe what I did neither did I thump them over the head with a Bible), it attracted women, which is ironic when you think about it. :lol:

    OK, we're on date 3, still holding out the booty. I did sleep over last night. Trying to let things happen at their own pace and stuff, but when exactly CAN I jump his bones?
    He's a nice guy. No,really.

    gul agrees: Better do it soon, or he'll lose interest

    Really? But it's only date 3, it's not like we haven't done anything but I don't want to go too fast either.

    Not too interested in an MMM, though a MMF would be okay. Certainly FFM is the holy grail. The problem was that the opportunity would have required cheating on my wife, something I'm not interested in doing. Does that cancel out the bad karma?

    Nah, if you're hoping for something other than a short-term thing, take your time. But do make sure he knows you want him. The 'losing interest' bit, imho, is just a different way of saying 'she makes me feel insecure by not jumping my bones, doesn't she like me? I don't like this feeling, so I'll split before she gets a chance to dump me'. Men get just as insecure as women about (the other) sex - they just don't tolerate that feeling very long. The fragile male ego and all that :shrug:

    Any wife worth having would completely understand, even encourage and participate in a three-way to make her man happy.

    Of course, that probably makes Mrs Albert the only wife worth having. I can sure tell ya Mary would head straight for the drawer with the cleaver in it if I even brought it up.

    Depends on the people. I dated the Mrs. for 6 weeks before she gave it up. I also know of at least two couples who hooked up initially as one-night-stands and ended up staying together.

    Hell, I thought the 3rd date was the common consensus on when to DO IT. :fun:

    Well normally I don't usually have regrets about missed opportunities but this weekend I was in Chicago for a wedding and I met this very beautiful girl who I didn't realize at the time was seriously flirting with me and now that I'm back home and sober I realize what a big opportunity I missed. This girl was hot, blonde hair, blue eyes, tight body, plump ass and she was from Savanna and had this real thick southern accent which I love. Problem was I had been drinking since thursday with my brother. Our flight out of Ft. Lauderdale was at 8 in the morning so we stayed up all night drinking, got the airport and drank on the plane, woke up when we landed and drank at the airport waiting for our pickup got to the hotel and started in on the mini bar, left there to go to the rehersal dinner were there was an open bar, after the rehersal dinner we threw my cousins' fiance a bachlor party........ basically I was sloshed all weekend. So while she was flirting with me and eyeballing me and going on about how she loves Jamaica, Jamaicans, and nude beaches I missed an opportunity for some late night skinny dipping in the hotels indoor pool and possible some real good cowboy type drunken sex with a hot southern bell. :ua:

    Damn you alcohol, damn you to heck!!!

    Honestly, looking back, now I'm glad I didn't sleep with him. I was right to think all he was interested in was sex. The way I look at it, I may not have gotten what I want but I didn't lower my standards. If a man can't wait for 3 days he's not worth my time.

    In other words, he dumped you, so you figure it wasn't your personality?

    It very well may have been my personality, but he certainly wasn't concerned with that while he was trying every trick in the book to get me in bed. I could care less why he stopped calling me, that happens, the point is I made the right decision.

    :yes:

    As long as you are happy with your decision, it doesn't matter what others think of it. Some folks go on to have that urban fairy tale one night stand to happy fifty-year marriage. But it isn't for everyone, and there's a good reason why nothing comes from the majority of one-night stands.

    It just ain't worth.
