Justifying Cheating?
Posted:
7/9/2009 5:26:25 PM
Rosiaq-
A disabled person due to illness, is uncontrollable by either one of the couple. This just happens. I don't think you can ask a person on their deathbed if you give them permission to look for intimacy elsewhere. Those people are to be bothered the least, they need love and compassion. If the healthy spouse sneaks once in a while to get some apeacement for their needs....I'm sure they will do it discreetly. So this one case I can understand.
I still don't think it's any better. If I was on my deathbed or seriously ill, I would rather die than have someone who supposedly loves me kiss me after having relations with another man. "In sickness and in health" does not have the caveat unless I decide to put my physical desires ahead of the promise I am making right here. Furthermore... if I am that ill I will probably be passing soon and most likely leaving everything to the one I love. That's the second kick in the pants. That I would leave all my worldly belongings to someone that can't even keep it in their pants until I die... or love and trust me enough to be honest with me.
Every person has the right to decide for themselves whether or not they want to allow their partner to take another the lover in the event that they cannot perform sexually any longer. And not to have that decision made FOR them. Lying is wrong.....there is no way to make it right.
As far as a persistent vegetative state , like I said in another thread somewhere.... you can get a divorce and give power of attorney to someone else if your need to fornicate supercedes your love and respect for your spouse. But I suppose MAYBE in the event like Terry Schiavo where the brain is only functioning enough to breathe and provide a heartbeat.... the argument could be made that the person no longer truly exists.

Justifying Cheating?

I wanted to comment on the cheating on your disabled husband or wife... but I think Kenny Rogers explained how I would feel if I were in that situation...
Ruby by Kenny Rogers
You've painted up your lips an rolled and curled your tinted hair.
Ruby are you contemplating going out somewhere?
The Shadow on the wall tells me the sun is going down -
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town
It wasn't me that started that old crazy asian war
But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chore
And yes, it's true that I'm not the man I used to be...
Oh Ruby I still need some company.
Its hard to love a man whose legs are bent and paralyzed
And the wants and needs the needs of a woman your age, Ruby I realize,
But it won't be long i've heard them say until i'm not around
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town
She's leavin' now 'cause I heard the slammin' of the door
The way I know I've heard it slam one hundred times before
And if I could move I'd get my gun and put her in the ground
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town
Oh Ruby
God sakes turn around
(ok, maybe without the murder)
The disabled person should have the right to decide if they wish to allow you to pursue others physically, or to get a divorce and remove you from their life.

http://www.beyondsevencondoms.com/ By far the best condoms I have ever used. It truly feels like you are not wearing anything to you and your partner. They will even send you a free sample ;)
Kimonos are good too, but if you are "girthy" Kimonos... and the Crown brand from beyond seven can be a little difficult to roll on.

Men Who Defend Experience
Posted:
7/8/2009 4:00:36 AM
While I can't speak for anyone else, I defend "experienced" women on these forums because it IS about the person. All to often women get torn to shreds for their personal preferences. Slut, whore, etc etc etc... we all know the names.... and in some threads have seen it degrade into attacks on a a lady's IQ, self worth, and morals. By the same token, if people were attacking a woman who preferred not to have sex, AND the threads were becoming demeaning I would not hesitate to defend her either.
It's a personal choice that doesn't directly affect anyone not involved in that person's life.... no one else has a right to judge what's right for you or me.
I think just about anyone who is "inexperienced" feels pressure. Guys don't have t easy either. Is it too soon to go there, will I last long enough, am I doing things well, am I big enough for her, etc etc etc.

Marriage vs LTR
Posted:
7/5/2009 4:22:41 PM
Spokenfor- I totally agree with you. In fact, when explaining why marriages fail I usually reference the "disposable society". This very reason is WHY I made the post I did. Yes, there are some "old fashioned" people out there that believe it's forever and will weather the storms so to speak, but it seems like in today's world we have lost alot of our impulse control. This has also led to the stigma of being a divorcee to be lifted so the fear of being a black sheep is all but nonexistent.
I also blame much of it with the ever growing necessity to have both parents working just to provide a reasonably comfortable lifestyle. It's little wonder the flames of passion get snuffed out when you both get home from work and have a mountain of chores that have to be done.
And then the taboo subjects.
Woman's Lib.
Looking over the history of marriage it's only been in the last 50 years that women were truly considered equals. 1950 and before it was unheard of for women to do anything other than be a stay at home mom and be subservient to their men. It's a fairly major paradigm shift, so it's little wonder that an institution that relied on defined gender roles doesn't seem to work as well as it once did.
Organized religion
Organized religion doesn't have the same gravitas it once held. There was a point in time that it was believed that a divorce or adultery meant an eternity drowning in a Lake of Fire.... That's a pretty powerful motivator to get people to work through their problems.
Sex and the sexual revolution-
You don't need to wait for marriage, it's not a sacred act for procreation only, new demands on keeping it new and fresh.... etc etc etc The sexual side of relationships has changed as well. It's no wonder so many marriages fail when cheating is so common place.
Pandora's Box was opened.....
The thing is we cannot close the box and turn the clocks back to the "simpler, gentler" times. But who would if they could? I love independent women. And think it took too long to get where the sexes are at(of course there is still work to do). Should anyone be forced back into servitude?
Since society will probably not regress, then it's time for marriage law to progress to reflect the realities of today's world. If you look through the CDC or Census statistics fewer people are getting married than ever before and more are getting divorced. if the trend continues it won't be long until marriages are thing of the past...much like dowry's.
Taken from Census Bureau- number per 1000 people per capita
year marriages divorces
1900 19.2 2.0
1950 18.3 5.0
2007 11.3 6.8
(To be clear, my intent is not to be a misogynist...)

Marriage vs LTR

There is nothing that can be done. The world has changed. It's not the 1950's any more. In today's world the only way to make marriage appeal to the masses is to minimize the effects it has on your life once it's done.
As it stands now marriage has a horrible PR campaign. "There's a 50% chance you're going to lose 50% of your stuff." If the odds were that bad with driving.... I think we'd see ALOT more people walking and riding bicycles.

50% percent of first marriages, 67% of second and 74% of third marriages end in divorce, according to Jennifer Baker of the Forest Institute of Professional Psychology in Springfield, Missouri.”

Being married does give you a nice tax break, extra income to show on credit applications, and provides legal status for end of life issues.
I think many more people would consider marriage if the financial stakes were not so high. Fear of alimony, spousal maintenance whatever you want to it call it....is frightening... not to mention in some cases a portion of your retirement can be "re allocated" as well.

The discretion part came out wrong I think. What I was trying to say was....
If he thinks you want more than friendship he may be lying to you because he doesn't want to hurt you by saying "I have two Swedish Bikini models oiling up in my hotel right now." I have a friend that I dated and we both agreed that it was better not to hear details of each other's love/sex lives.
However, if he's a compulsive liar... there is nothing you can do I'm afraid. I have a family member who is a megalomaniac AND a compulsive liar. As much as it hurt me to do it, I no longer have any contact with him. I tried to get him professional help....he lied and said he went but the doctor said there was nothing wrong with him... go figure.

Never does he put himself out to visit me although has been invited
----I don't think he wants to go further than just friends with you.
You got suspicious over him texting and driving? He obviously wasn't with another woman at that time...I'd text and drive before texting and dating at the same time!
I really don't mean to sound harsh...
Sounds like you still have feelings for him and he knows it.
He's probably moved on and doesn't feel like it'd be appropriate to share details of his love life with you.
While I cannot stand liars... this would be one situation where I'd appreciate the discretion if I were in your shoes.
As much as you don't want to be friends with a liar, I don't think anyone wants to be friends with someone who checks up on them either..... if you want to save the friendship it may be time for an honest conversation on how you feel about him and how he feels about you.

YIKES! Tensions are definitely running high in this thread.
Men vs. Women
All in all this board/thread is filled by posts pointing out the differences in men and women in a combative nature. As a whole it's clear why so dating is so hard. So many preconceptions on how the other sex thinks, that when a good person comes along it may be easy to dismiss them. We all "know" these things about the opposite sex, why don't we accept them and find ways to work with each other. Some men are all about sex, some women are all about money... but it's rather unfair to paint individuals of either sex with that broad brush. When we do, we resign ourselves to a bitter life lived alone.
Ideological Differences....
Clearly there's a divide in the sex department. What works for some won't work for others. But it doesn't give anyone a right to make derogatory remarks about the other side of the spectrum. There is no reason to call each other sluts, tramps, prudes, ice queens, etc etc. There's no reason to make assumptions about either sides intellect, moral values, or any other quality for that matter. We all have different views on life, love, and sex.
There is no need to be disrespectful of each other just because we are of the opposite sex or of opposing viewpoints.

I dated a girl that kissed like a puppy trying to lick ice cream off my ENTIRE face.... and thrashed around like Linda Blair in the exorcist. Lack of any thing resembling coordination and rhythm is worse than the Dead one.
No way to get/keep rhythm...and constantly bending you forcibly...... excruciating.
Wonderful woman... but between that and her table manners, we had to part ways.

I think in the end it'll all boil down to "natural selection".
Men who want a woman who holds out will end up with girls who do so.
And men and women who let the chips fall where they may will end up together.

Not to mention we are preprogrammed and designed as a duo.....
What's the worst punishment next to death? Solitary confinement......How do we punish children now... timeout.....
We are meant to be together... we are not supposed to be alone. If we were, we'd be asexual or hermaphroditic with no need for such complex communications and networking tools.
We need to love and be loved....we need to be held and touched. Study after study has shown that talking, laughing, crying, cuddling, hugging... is all very beneficial to us.
Yes, it is better to have loved and lost... you will love again and chance are it will be the greatest love you have ever known....if you let it.

You had mentioned earlier you thought perhaps age may be a factor.... you may want to take a multivitamin(if you don't already), and perhaps look into other herbal or supplemental vitamins.
Such as DHEA, L- Argnine, Gingko Biloba, and melatonin. They all assist in prolactin inhibition, estrogen production/utilization, and blood flow.
Of course.....talking to your doctor first is always a great idea . :D

The other thing to think about is....
Everyone on here has given the OP a different view... and yet most of if not all of us are on here and looking. If there was one right way to go about things there would be no need for dating sites, forums, and Ann Landers. We'd all have the Love Handbook and live in a Utopian society.
Whether you sleep with a guy on the first date or the 150th... a jerk is a jerk. You can play by all the rules... have a formal courtship... have a storybook wedding.....live a fairy tale..... and it's still no guarantee of happily ever after.
I have no idea how to put this lightly...but here goes....
If it's players you're trying to eliminate, this "make him wait" strategy will never work. A player will be out fooling around with every other piece of tail WHILE waiting for you to "give it up". For every game, test, and pitfall a woman has devised to weed out the good from the bad... the bad has a counter.
Sure you'll catch some of them, but you'll also weed out some good guys who either feel like you're not attracted to them "in that way" or guys who feel that playing games and using sex as leverage is not the best way to enter into a long term relationship.

Can't believe I am posting in this thread......but here goes....
I'm sure you've heard and tried all this... but I figure it can't hurt
If you are having difficulty there are some other things you can try....
Look into the Kama Sutra there are several positions in there that will force even a modest sized man to hit the "spot".
A part of the problem may be somewhat psychological... tension... worried it may not happen etc etc. Teach your man to use your toys to on you, or mutually masterbate.... just as you climax, have him penetrate you...as it gets more and more familiar have him penetrate you sooner before you climax.
You may also try temperature changes.... give him oral with hot tea(not too hot!) and have at it.....
Textured condoms... I know... noone likes them if we are in a committed monogamous relationship...
Vibrating****rings.... not the cheapo disposable ones from Trojan. Get your self a high quality one... it will turn his member into a "Rabbit" giving you clitoral and gspot stim at the same time.

Justifying Cheating?
Posted:
7/2/2009 1:28:03 PM
I don't think staying married "for the kids" is ever a good idea. I think it gives them a bad idea of what a loving relationship is... and so the cycle of abuse continues.
But I do agree... a relationship is like a symphony and communication is the conductor... it'll continue for a little while without the conductor... but sooner than later it will devolve into a chaotic mess.

Justifying Cheating?

Pazoozoo- Well..... that's a pretty specific circumstance. And if there is no family for power of attorney or a Living Will to handle termination of life support...
I think it would be safe to say that just about anyone who has been in love would agree that if they were ever in that state they would understand if their spouse began relations with others. That's not cheating....
Personally, I have a Living Will drawn up and recommend everyone does so. And even if I didn't wish to have life support removed in that circumstance... I would want my wife to have a happy and fulfilled life. Not one squandered in a hospital waiting for me to pass.

So be friendly to her if you see her in class. You're both adults... she screwed up....you moved on. You can march in there like you have an axe to grind, but all it will do is distract you from your studies, and potentially ruin any chances you have with any other girls in class.
Not like you have to hang out or anything.....but the normal... how ya been... etc etc etc doesn't hurt.
It may not be easy... but truly the best way to handle it is to do your best to concentrate on your education, sports, music, whatever... and wash you hands clean of any and all bitterness. Negative emotions hurt you... not her.

It would be easier to just blame the guy and blame sex. But only one side of the story is being given here.
Going on the popular opinion that all men a sex fiends... wouldn't it make MORE sense if he was a player and just wanted it that he would continue calling her FOR sex?
Or is it possible, that perhaps after they had sex some dynamic changed in the way the related to one another that caused him to feel suffocated? She said he's pulling away... he didn't disappear. ...yet.
Maybe he really does like you and you just came on a little to strong after you guys slept together. If he's the guy you said you thought he was..... maybe he's just scared and not sure how to handle himself in any other way than pulling away.

first date sex
Posted:
7/2/2009 11:40:31 AM
After reading almost this entire thread I have some questions lol
What about the person?
Many are talking about mileage....numbers...lists..... kick her tires and give her a go.... How many dates DOES it take to minimize the number of sexual partners a woman could have had..... assuming both are disease free.... what's the difference between a divorced woman who was married for 10 years and had sex 4 times a week vs a woman who dated off and on for 10 years. I doubt the even the most active single gal had sex 2000 times in 10 years.
It doesn't matter if you wait another date or another 10 dates her "mileage" is not going to change.
As for the other side... doesn't withholding sex based on an arbitrary number in the hopes that it shows in interest in you rather than just sex kind of set a precedent for the future of the relationship? Specifically, that sex be used as a tool of some sort rather just a more intimate expression of how you feel?
How many dates are a minimum for those of you who "make him wait"? What constitutes a date? Does amount of time talking on the phone, texting, and love notes accumulate to the magic number?
If sex is bad, it's bad it doesn't matter when it takes place. The only difference is how much time and energy was wasted by the two of you to find out that you are not compatible.
The right time to be intimate should be a matter of the heart andchemistry.....not mental gymnastics and mathematics.

You weren't stupid. Love is the absence of reason. Things change over time... some people grow together, some grow apart. Be glad it happened now before you got married, had children, bought a house.......
You are free to do as you please... to make your own destiny. Instead of getting caught in a negative mindset fantasizing about her demise...
Use that time and creativity to dream up what you are going to do with the rest of your life. Go skydiving! Meet the most beautiful woman you have ever seen at the DZ..... Imagine how great it can be and how VERY lucky you are that you found out now... instead of later.

Just move on with your life. Make all of your dreams come true.
I also made the same mistakes you are considering years ago, but I have to say I am extremely glad I did not. It sucks right now to be sure, but when the pain subsides you will either be left with: Guilt, a sullied reputation(surely you had mutual friends), and possible legal action....or you can be ready to accept someone into your life that you deserve...and that deserves you.
Good Luck to You....

The most important sex organ is in between the ears. If you cannot communicate all is lost before you have begun.
Honestly, I think the OP may have done other women a favor..... maybe he'll work on his "technique".

Justifying Cheating?
Posted:
7/2/2009 9:18:31 AM
There is no justification for cheating.
In a perfect world married couples would be honest and open about their sexual needs. They would be willing to come to compromises so that both are fulfilled. It would be something shared between two people in love as an expression and reaffirmation of that bond.
Sadly, all too often it becomes a bargaining chip, something to the fill the void of a different need, or a chore or duty....like mowing the lawn or folding laundry.
If you can cheat, you truly do not love the person you are with. Could you do it in front of them....watching the tears stream down their face?

I don't kiss on the first date

I have to agree with Happily....
Having rules set out before the first date would send up some red flags for me. I think it speaks volumes about her preconceptions of men. She may as well just say "Men are pigs".
However, knowing full well that she has intimacy/affection issues...her date STILL kissed her on the cheek and violated her personal comfort zone, which is rather disrespectful of him.

Dominant vs Submissive, for real

Kim, Cassa, Rain, and Dave collectively hit it on the head.....but I would add....
Like anything else in life it is what you make of it, and it means something entirely different for any given couple. As long as whatever they do is Safe, Sane, and Consensual....noone has a right to dictate or judge anything that couple decides to do. Including defining their role in it.
On a side note....I would also recommend collarme.com to anyone who reads this thread and finds any interest in the topic.

Find something constructive that brings you any source of joy. For me, it was plugging in my headphones and riding through Red Rock park. I jokingly called it "Pedal 'til you Puke" therapy. Every visit I'd try to beat my last time. Before I knew it, I had lost a TON of weight....from my belly and shoulders.
The best thing you can do right now whether or not the two of you are going to try to work it out is to focus on yourself and your children.
Oh and spoil yourself a lil bit! Sleep sideways in the bed... eat Cheetos in your boxers while watching sports.... leave your socks On the hamper not in IN it... ya know the little things you couldn't get away with normally.
In all seriousness, good luck to you... it's a long road......but I promise you there is a fulfilling life at the end of it.

hehe well I'll do my best to keep it G rated... it appears after reading some of the posts there are some sensitive people at these events. I just moved home from Vegas to take care of family matters, so I haven't had a chance to blow off any steam yet.
And again, I'd like to thank everyone for the hospitality, it's hard coming back home and having all your friends married off or moved away. And a preemptive thanks to those who organized this event to bring people together in a safe and fun environment.

Forgive me for being forward based on assumptions formed from only your previous posts......
It sounds like you have a lot to be grateful for. You have had you eyes opened to a new part of yourself.....such realizations hardly ever come without pain. Clearly something happened to you 17 years ago which altered your outlook and the way you deal with your personal relationships. Right now it may feel like the end of all that's good and wonderful.... but the best has yet to come!
From here you can better yourself, crush those insecurities....embrace your emotional self..... and who knows maybe a few years down the line your paths will cross again and the timing will be right. Or perhaps another gentleman will captivate you.....but this time no more demons to drag you down......and your heart will be open and ready to give/receive love.
Like riding a bicycle, you'll fall..... gets lots of road rash.... and lots of scars. But over time the scars fade into memory of what you learned as you speed down a hill with the wind rushing through your hair.

Eggs and bacon walk into a bar, the bartender says "Sorry, we don't serve breakfast."

Figured I'd drop line and say hi! I saw alot of talk about dancing... what kind of music is usually played? And what are these parties like? I'm kinda shy in person.
