Well someone said I’m not worthy to even go to a prostitute. Also people don’t often seem to become outraged if someone (who is part of a large percentage of people) who had committed adultery ends up getting married again. Yet they seem outraged for me to do that.

Yeah I suspected it might be the case for my fiance. BTW last night she said that she doesn’t want to get any bigger. I told her that there is advice about having a flat tummy that you should eat every 4 hours - even if you’re not hungry.

I find it difficult to do - I just find most other parts of her sexy - including her freckles. BTW last night we were lying on a futon bed watching a movie and she was lying on her side with her back to me - so I couldn’t see her belly at all but the side of her waist has a bit small which was sexy. On second thoughts it looks like she’s pregnant… yesterday I thought that that was kind of sexy since many of the world’s most beautiful people have had a pregnant look.

I’m looking for honest feedback - though some of the honest feedback I find ridiculous.

BTW many times my fiance has said that she loves my boobies while touching them. BTW I am skinny but have a belly and man-boobs that are about size B.

I can tell:

- playful
- horny
- not interested in what I’m talking about
- not very comfortable (she’s very quiet)

We just watched a movie I’ve seen before called “She’s Out Of My League”. It had a lot of people having inappropriate thoughts or comments in a similar way to I sometimes do. My fiance said the main girl was very pretty or something and I said “yeah well they said she’s a 10 out of 10”. I found it interesting that the girl in the movie hated the guy thinking she was too perfect and that he “put her on a pedestal”! She didn’t like that he had low self esteem. Well I have moderate self esteem and I don’t claim my partner is too perfect.  
BTW today we were talking about brothels and I said that my fiance was cheaper than a prostitute and she was shocked. Then I said she’s better than a prostitute at sex and she liked that comment.

I just told my fiance that I found it interesting that the girl in the movie was upset that the guy thought she was too perfect. My fiance said that she wasn’t perfect. I said that if she was she’d already have a lot of stalkers. She said she already has had a lot of stalkers as well as people who had committed suicide about her. She said that she wasn’t good looking at all. I said she’s cute and attractive and she said thanks or something like that.

She asked if I’d been naughty and I told her about my posts on the board. I told her about the first part of my previous post. She was worried that people on the board would think she’s stuck up and wants me to stop talking about her on the board. She also said people might give bad advice and I agreed.

No shit!

A little hint - do NOT compare your current lover to a prostitute, ever!

My mind is by this point officially blown.

John, what are you hoping to achieve by sharing so much of the private conversations between you and your fiancee on this message board? And do you think you are achieving it?

Becoming more conscious/aware of things and yes it is working.

Well, to be fair, it wouldn’t be any better to be told I was \*worse \*than a prostitute at sex…

Really, the only winning move is not to play…which is perhaps the moral of this entire thread.

He wanted lots of attention, and yes, he’s getting it.

She had a good reaction - BTW she is very attracted to ME - she’s not the typical girl who is more attracted to you guys so your rules don’t necessarily apply.

Yeah that sounds right. BTW if it wasn’t for replies like this on the messageboard I wouldn’t have realised things like that. Well maybe I’d realise it eventually.

BTW tonight she said something about her belly being like she’s pregnant… I don’t remember telling her that… well years ago a salesman asked her about her pregnancy and I might have later said that I agreed with him that she kind of looks pregnant. Also she asked what I wanted as a wedding present… I said “a blowjob”. Her jaw hanged wide open (she had a funny shocked face) then said that she thought I didn’t like it. Well it was nice though after a few minutes I just decided that we should have sex. I was lasting for a long time and was worried that I’d lose my erection (like it happens often if I’m taking too long). Being more passionate helped me finally ejaculate.

It’s sort of like companionship involving a very wide circle of people.

A vision of you on the vinegar stroke is something I can live without.
