Spike Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 1 minute ago, Batard said: The items you listed there, that goes without saying, I wasn't reflecting on things quite as traumatic as those. I feel that people of ky generation are loving in polar extremes. Afraid of sex, the diseases, the responsibility of children, accusations of 'rape', being raped; or they are far too casual, freely aborting children without remorse, witholding information of carried diseases, and abandoning children. Sexual education is in a rock and a hard place, teach them roo young and run the risks of creating a celibate generation, teach them too late and you've an epidemic of pregnancy. I feel I was at the optimal age when I first had sex, not too young to be twisted by pubescent emotions and not too old to be twisted by bitterness towards the fairer sex. I think I was 19? Some of my friends have very twisted views on sex; one of them almost sees it as a transaction between men and women and feels bitter when 'his end of the bargain' isn't upheld.

Devil-Dick Willie Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 I think sex is as intimate as you want it to be. Or, you have different sex with different people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is impossible because it's between two people (or more, hubba hubba). No single person decides what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if one person believes it to be serious while the other just thinks it's a fling? It takes two to tango. Think about it, this is why rape is such a touchy subject without clear definition these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil-Dick Willie Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 So my next fling will accuse me of rape if I smash rather than make love? Bit paranoid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, mainly because that isn't even close to what I said, implied, hinted at, signified, gestured towards, insinuated, entailed, etc. I posted the word 'five' and you read 'ten'.

Devil-Dick Willie Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Just ended an off and on thing. Decidedly. Not happy with it but I felt I had to put the foot down. I feel like shit, but in a week or so I will never have to worry about her ever again. Good long term decision I think even if it's a bit horrid now.

Administrator Stan Posted July 9, 2017 Administrator Share Posted July 9, 2017 bit of a rocky patch at the moment for me and my missus, despite having a really good holiday few weeks ago. We appear to have different priorities. She doesn't want an Indian wedding. I do (even compromise to keep it small). She doesn't like that I go to watch sport whereas she always wants to go on holiday. She also wants me to move to London away from my family/friends who I'm very close to and always have been. I've said that one day eventually I will probably do it but I've finally got a bit of calmness and settled feel about my life and I don't want to disrupt that just now (I think that's fair). I also want to save up for a nice wedding and a decent house which becomes more difficult if I'm forking out for holidays (and she's not one to look for cheap holidays) every few months. it's hard enough saving as it is while trying to enjoy life but I want to save up to not just live and get by every day. I want to save up for myself, herself, our family if/when we have one and make sure we/they have a good life. Comparatively, she wants to have everything now, in the present, and because she earns more than me she is able to do that. Deep down I don't think she fully appreciates that I have a flat and a mortgage and bills to pay off each month whereas she's living at home with parents... Tough times at the moment and although we both want to work it out with each other it's hard to see the answer or solution right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the first time in any relationship I've ever had that it's got to this stage and I've seriously chatted about getting engaged/marriage.

Storts Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Had our two year anniversary a couple of weeks back, never thought I'd be in such a comfortable relationship, pretty stress free. She's wonderful - I get freedom. Big decisions down the road which will loom larger as time goes on but trying to avoid such difficult conversations for now.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 9, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted July 9, 2017 I've had a casual thing since about February but won't be continuing due to me returning to the Isle of Man this month. Typically, it suddenly seems to go from casual to there actually being some feeling there as soon as me moving away becomes close enough for it to be reality .

Terrible really. One person gets attracted. I much prefer being in a relationship where both you and your partner are feeling the emotion. The sex is basically better too. Stan, good luck mate.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 9, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted July 9, 2017 I've always preferred a relationship. It's a strange one as the feeling is mutual on this occasion, we'd probably have been "in a relationship" if not for knowing I'm moving in July. We've pretty much been acting as such.

Rick Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Sorry to hear that Stan. I've never had that sort of worry myself, always been lucky in that sense but I can imagine it's a gut wrench thinking about how she truly perceives you and your responsibilities away from the relationship. In the last month or so me and the missus had our first "row"...i put that in quotation marks because neither of us got angry, it didn't get heated, we just had a disagreement about something silly (as you do, and it was my fault) and we ended up barely speaking for a day or two...obviously when it's the early stages of a relationship, this sort of thing can be a killer, but I can honestly say that it's made me change my mentality for the better and I have becone a lot more laid back. Its weird the effect this woman has had on me so far, she's fucking amazing. She can be a pain in the arse sometimes and a cheeky shit, but i couldnt imagine my life right now without the lass. Sorry for the soppy bollock ending, I'm gonna go cut down a tree to regain man points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
