Last night my boyfriend and I came to an agreement whereby I’ll take off my shirt and he’ll rub lotion on my back. He gets to see boobs and I can stop trying to scratch that spot on my back I can never reach. 😃

Okay, really, it’s just been too long since I started a thread, and this is the best I could come up with.

No biggie. I can get Mr. Wanna to do most anything I want if it involves taking off my top.

Showing boobies for a nice lotion massage = fair trade. Uh, he _is_ giving you a massage and not just putting lotion on your back, right?

Massage, yes. Quite a good massage.

He likes giving foot rubs, too. What a catch!

I have a similar arrangement with my girlfriend; her choice of a massage or lotion rubbed on any portion of her anatomy that she feels needs it. She did feel obliged once to tell me that such activity did not necessarily constitute foreplay and was not to be construed as a promise of further intimate activity. She didn’t believe me when I told her that I just enjoyed being able to run my hands over her skin.

You have boobs on your back? Gosh, I don’t think his curiosity is all that unfounded.

One of my friends was frequently quoted as saying he’d like to date a woman with three breasts.

“Three?”

“Yes, two on the front, and one on the back-- for dancing!”

It rubs the lotion on my skin and then it sees the boobs again.

LOL 😃 Do you think it would freak him out if I said this? (I think it might freak _me_ out, but it would be worth it.)

Geez, I feel I should retire.  
What’s great is no matter if \*\*The Weird One \*\* says or not, she will think of it and what is _really_ great is that a woman with no shirt on will be thinking of **me**.

That’s the most action I’ve had in a long time.

I’ve got this theory. Whenever a woman (other than a professional masseuse) has given me a backrub, shoulder massage, etc., it’s been exceedingly uncomfortable. But dudes are often very good at them. I believe that this is because a guy figures this is a good first step in getting into a girl’s drawers and, even if it doesn’t go any further, at least the laying on hands is pleasant. But chicks don’t need to be so sneaky – if they want to get laid, they can do it without needing a strategy. So they have no incentive to get really good at backrubs.

In most cases, he’s only doing those things to get you in the sack… or to get you to marry him… 😃

Though some of us saps continue to do many of these things even after marriage.

Mrs. Butler can’t sleep without getting some head scratching/back scratching as we watch TV prior to sleep.

Since she’s been gone for a week, I’m looking forward to getting back to our ritual.

Lotion Boy (I’ll bet he’ll love having _that_ nickname) told me that his parents were never very demonstrative when he was a kid, but they did sit on opposite ends of the couch and give each other foot-rubs. Sometimes, one of them would fall asleep and the other would start complaining that they weren’t getting their fair share of foot-rubbing. 😃
