This thread actually has two purposes. First, I want to gloat, because not only did I get laid last night, I had two different guys in the time span of 6 hours…pretty impressive…(Shh, no one tell Punha, my virtual daddy…)
Secondly, I need the best way to hide a hickey in the summer. since it’s about 90 degrees out, I cant really wear a turtleneck. I was hoping it wasn’t all that obvious, but apprently it is. Not only did Cati catch it right off, my sister within 5 minutes asked who it was from, Carlos at work (who doesn’t even speak english…) kept pointing to my neck and saying “you get sucky” (whatever the hell that means…), and I had a customer in drive thru, who must’ve been in his 30’s at least, tease me about my “love scars”. Then after I walked away, he told one of my closers that he had a hot manager, and the other that he bets I give good head. Then as he drove away, he was like “Bye honey!” Eww. It was creepy.
So not only do I have to go kick Scott’s butt tomorrow, I have to find a way to hide this from the rest of the world. Especially my mom…this is the kind of stuff she lives for. It’s how she knows there’s stuff going on in my life that I don’t tell her about. And in the meantime, I get to hear about how irresponsible I am from Rashad…he knows if he were in my situation, he’d get with 2 girls in the same night. But because his dating life sucks, he can be holier than thou, and tell me how irresponsible I am. It’s gonna be a long night…
It’s MPSIMS and I’m the only person home. The only threads I haven’t read tonight are the ones I read yesterday. I might as well be a mod, I read this forum so much:)
My sleeping schedule is so off right now. And I’ve a dopefest tomorrow (today) and I have to be at Vienna Metro at 9:30.
Anyway. Your question. While I’ve never had a hickey (shut up, shut up, shut up), I hear* that cold spoons can do a good job with them. Where on your neck is it?
*Obviously, since I’ve never had one, I haven’t been able to test this out.
At least it’s a hickey-and not a hideous curling iron burn-I’m a total klutz and I’ve done that on occassion…it looks like a hickey, and I feel like an ass explaining what it really is.
I used to work at a department store, and one of the more popular items that we sold were these sleeveless turtlenecks. I remember thinking, everytime somebody bought one, “Man! A sleeveless turtleneck! How stupid is this? Why would anyone wear one!?”
My mother noticed one on me when I was in high school (causing me to yawn with embarassment, an odd phenomenon that should probably have its own thread). She recommended toothpaste to get it out.
Because the kissing and licking and suction feels SOOOOO good! Why this leaves such a horrid mark, I don’t understand. Drachillix never hurts me but he’s taken to avoiding even nuzzling my neck. I love my neck kissed and I guess things get out of hand, because I’ve had some very evident bruising. It looks so unprofessional! I’d cover up with makeup, high collared blouses and my hair.
I am not sure about everyone’s fascination with ice cold spoons. You can simply apply ice to the aforementioned area. The red area is simply dead cells rising to the top of your skin. If you ice that area the cells will recede.
Not impressed, sorry. Any girl can walk into a bar and get laid by more than two guys just by saying “come and get it” (i’m sure ill get flamed for that, but im willing to take a bet on it). As for the hickie, the best way to get rid of them is by combing over the area with a hairbrush. Sounds weird, but its worked plenty of times for me.
Let me second this! I think if you have to ask why, you’ve never gotten a good one.
One trick to try – if you have fairly long hair, you know, it covers the back of your neck – pull it up with your hands, presenting your nice soft skin to truelove, and say, “bite me”. It’s great. You can get all the bruises you want there, if your hair is a reasonable length.
And people wonder why I wear my hair long… sheesh!
I have long hair, but my problem is that I work in food service. So my nice long hair is either tucked up into a bun, or pulled into a tight ponytail most of the day, which doesn’t really do a lot to hide my neck
Not sure this would help you at work, but I really like wearing short scarves tied around my neck in the spring & summer. Most clothing stores have them-- Express and its ilk generally have really cute ones. Who doesn’t enjoy a little accessorizing?
