At that point I don’t think you’re getting caught, you’re getting peeped.

She expected me to stop, I expected her to go away. We both got the hint at the third time and didn’t speak until the next day.

What a coincidence! Home Depot parking lots does it for me too!

Sorry. Top secret. You know, I don’t know what it is, the smell of asphalt mixed with the fragrance of all those plants and flowers out front - it always puts me in the mood. It’s just irresistible 😃

I think the rest of the (omitted) story is that they all agreed, turned out the light and started. When the light came back on, only the OP was actually participating.

I am never caught, per se, because when I masturbate it is always at the club. Having just found and returned 87 wedding rings, most notably a 7 carat diamond, people just nod and smile.

My sweetie walked in on me a couple years back and it ended up in some enthusiastic coupling on the floor. And I admitted I did it a lot to my neurologist after he diagnosed me with Carpal Tunnel and I just had to know why, if I have 2 hands and only one pecker my dang hands had worn out first?

a google search for “87 wedding rings” shows up nothing. I think it more the work of a malfunctioning brain.

Sister walked in (we were teens) to my bathroom and tried to peek around the closed curtain. Didn’t glimpse anything, tho I am sure she could put 2 & 2 together with the best of them.

Try a SD search of 7 carat diamond ring.

Jeez. You guys take all the fun outta everything.

Take a look around the board but make sure you’re wearing your tactical pants when you’re hanging out at the club…or the Home Depot parking lot.
