Sounds good to me, but I’ll probably have to work or something…  
☹

Let’s see, it’s been six months since she moved out, so I’d say about six months or so.

I’m with T-keela…YEARS is waaaay too long. It’s been two days for me.

I’m really trippin’ over YEARS. That just ain’t natural. I mean: you can only service yourself but so much before you NEED to take it next level! LOL! You “years” people need to simply go out and CLAIM some ass. Go ahead. Try it.

Again…YEARS!!! WTF? ain’t nobody that fu#@ing ugly.

I’m married, so I don’t prowl anymore…BTW I got married for my first, one and only time on New Years Eve Dec. 31, 1999…just felt right…at the ripe old age of 38.  
I’ve been with my SO for nearly ten years now and I can still get it up 24/7.  
BUT…back in the day, I could find willing women anywhere. I’d love to give some of y’all a clue but you’d probably fuck it up.

Yeah, I’m an old whore dog. Whether that’s good or bad, I dunno. But it sure was fun! I remember in my sex psych. class at SHSU the prof. held a poll of sorts.

He wanted to get a tally on # of partners among his students…

Needless to say my colleagues thought I was lying. Hey, what can I say…I came up in the 70’s and 80’s before AIDS was around. I arrived at a rough estimate. Here it goes, I had a party at my townhouse every fucking night for about ten years. No bullshit, real parties too, kegs, lids, booze and chicks. Rock and roll 'til the wee hours.(On average) aproximately 2-3 different girls per week would spend the night w/ me…  
Lets just go w/ the low avg. 2/week x say 50 weeks/year just so I don’t over estimate. What’s that…about 100 women/year  
Damn…that sounds pretty bad don’t it! Multiply that times ten years. Hmmm and I guarantee that’s on the way low estimate. I can remember some nights when there were two and/or three women per/night and some times at the same time.

What can I say? I had a complex of some sort (remember Sam Malone…what’d they call it? the Don Juan syndrome)

So, to all you impotents or celibates or fraidey cats or nitpickers…that’s cool. Do what YOU gotta do. But when you get older, don’t say you didn’t have the chance.

I’m no Tom Selleck BTW…😃 and for those of you who think I’m full of shit…bite me!😉

I don’t think you’re lying, **T-keela**. I figure if Wilt Chamberlain can get all that ass with his ugly self (rich or not), then ANYTHING’S possible.

\<brief hijack\>  
Can anyone recommend something to increase my libido (prescription or over the counter)? My husband would like to go daily (twice if I let him)…but I’m just not up for it that often. Twice or three time a week and I’m good to go. What can I do?!

Might be a good theory, but my husband tells me that I can get all the protein I need from HIM. LOL!!!

Aside from the red meat (cooked rare) w/ a nice bottle of wine, which does seem to work, at least w/ my wife and myself. I hear viagra work w/ women also. I don’t know 'bout the oysters and ginseng etc…

I find that if you bring your partner to one or two really good orgasms every time you have sex. They are inclined to have sex more frequently than if you just get off yourself and peter out  
(so to speak) Matter of fact, for me probably the best part of intimate relations is seeing that my partner DOES in fact reach a climax. Then it’s my turn!

I remember my first SO (not wife) I was at a party (her roommate) was having. Never met anyone there before, I was with my roommate on a roadtrip. Stopped at some chick’s place that he knew.

Anyway, it was a party, and they had set me up to meet this girl. Fucking blind date…ain’t that a trip, (I really think it was some weird joke my roomate was playing) He knew I didn’t need a setup.

Anyway, about midnight this girl walks in…goddamn this bitch was fine…I couldn’t even speak, I swear…but I could feel the attraction, it WAS HOT. I just walked across the room of people and kissed her. FOR REAL no peck on the cheek either. Never said a word, matter of fact we were both smoking in bed before we even spoke.

Lived with each other for about a year. I loved her to death and vice versa…we were just too young to actually commit longterm. But goddamned it was good.

MORAL of the story…take a fucking chance!

This made me almost spray my laptop with coffee this morning and yet is so true. Believe me four and a half years is not through choice. 😃

I didn’t even have the emotional intensity or investment of interest in the anniversiary of my nativity to add an exclamation point after the ‘yay’. That’s gotta count for something. My birthday was so insignifigant to me that I didn’t even remember it _was_ my birthday until someone told me.

All right, I’ll give you that. It’s just that I have a weird memory for such things… what can I say?

Actually, you remind me of my friend Dylan… he’s notorious for not remembering his own birthday. Last year, he got a call from his brother in Toronto… and asked him why he was calling. “It’s your birthday!” was his answer.

This year, he wondered why his mom was up earlier than usual, and went into the kitchen to ask. His mom told him that it was his birthday, but he promptly forgot… he was certainly reminded when he received ecards from his ex-girlfriend and another friend!
