Valentine's Day for Men

You guys have cut me to the quick. Seriously.

The video? He didn’t send it because he WANTS me to do that, he sent it because it REMINDS him of me! And why? Because I HAVE done that. We’ve done it in his office and we’ve done it in one of his colleagues’ offices. For one of the office visits, I was wearing stuff almost identical to the video’s lingerie, except without panties because I’d taken them off at the restaurant after the first bottle of wine. That’s how we celebrated MY birthday last year. I’ve done naughty things (one specific naughty thing) in the balcony of an empty opera house, fooled around on the gorgeous antique conference table his televised town meetings are held around, and in all manner of outdoor places and autos. WE HAVE SEX. I like it! And I like the same pretty dirty things he likes, because I have a body they look good on.

As for the trip, we were actually planning it for this weekend, but now snowmageddon is coming. And he brought it up! He mentioned wanting to make a trip into the city to scout for vinyl records because he’s putting together a collection as a gift. And I was like, you know… So the trip is going to be a combo thing. I’ve decided to skip asking my cousin because A) you’ve all freaked me out, and B) because we’re also planning a trip to her (even cooler) city and will probably do that next month. We’ll stay with her, which will mean going out on the town, drinking and eating, maybe meeting some of her friends, maybe pulling in more of my friends in the city. If we see her dad, the boyfriend will be in heaven. Uncle Jimmy parties hard. I’m looking at this as being…you know…fun.

Really, what’s wrong with seeing my people? I’m going to his hometown in Bumfuck, OH Memorial Day weekend. I’m spending my vacation days on it! And I’m excited about it. I’ve already met his parents (him: “my mom likes to meet the women I’m doing”). They bought me coffee and a muffin, and his dad grilled me about cement manufacturers in the region. When we go to OH we’ll hang out with his old friends. I imagine we’ll eat, drink, and laugh. Some of them I’ve already hung out with at a sailing regatta thing last year. I’m guessing we’ll be having sex throughout the trip. (I wasn’t sure about doing it at his parents’ house but he says YES, WE WILL, so we probably will) .

I’ll be packing up to hunker down at his place for the snow storm. It will probably be more romantic than anything going on next week (nice dinner Thursday, I’ll wear something pretty both over and under, then the overnight in the city).

Honestly? You guys disappoint if your thinking is so narrow as to NOT assume sex in every possible safe venue and on any and all days of the week or year. Office in garter belt and heels? DONE IT. Fancy opera house? DONE IT. Big rock on island? DONE IT. Tree near shore? YES. Half-time parking lot outside grill where watched Superbowl wearing skirt, thigh high socks, and no unders? DID IT EARLIER THIS WEEK.

I’m questioning what all of YOU mean when you say “sex.” Except SP. I think she gets it.

tl:dr summary: cut deep.[/quote]

That’s no where near enough sex to make up for the college play.

I was going to post ‘POIDH’ - but you beat me to it.

Well I think they’ll have a great time.

This is the crux of this issue, toots. There is nothing wrong with seeing your people, but you giving him a gift of seeing your people is the same as Homer giving Marge a bowling ball.

Even if he would genuinely have fun, a gift of your people is not really a gift to him.

TBH I’m actually pretty fine with it under the clause “Valentine’s Day is pretty BS, so just doing some normal activity and not celebrating it is pretty ok.”

But don’t call it a gift =p.

Just give it a couple weeks. Then start a thread here on TN. We’ll help.[/quote]

I’m only going to ask csulli’s advice when it’s time for birthday planning. lol

Em, you know I love ya like a sister (just not MY sister; I hate that bitch).

But I gotta tell ya, I sure don’t see any sign of those curves you keep mentioning in the picture you posted…[/quote]

I totally have curves. I dress to downplay. Sexy isn’t useful to me except in the one context, and he knows about the curves. I wear minimizing bras for everyday. I’m less secretive about my ass, but that’s harder to disguise. And I favor fitted pants. :slight_smile:

Unless by “curves” you mean…I don’t know…heavy?

Fuck men and their underhanded oblique innuendos!

What the hell does it all MEAN, orion? lol

I dunno, unlike women, men are hella complicated.

They say they want to eat and have sex, BUT WHAT DOES THAT REALLY MEAN !?!

Women said they already KNEW about the food and sex part but MEN DON’T LISTEN.

They say a lot of things and then they drag you to an amateur performance of three little pigs or some such and they make you be nice to their relatives while they could get us spare ribs and slut it up.

Women dont listen.
