dealing with root causes, not with symptoms

Reading thru personal ads on Lit, it struck me today that many Litsters – including myself perhaps also? – may be approaching their problems from the wrong end. As an example, one horny lady claims she cannot achieve an orgasm, unless she can talk with a man jacking off. Or another one likes to be gifted a vibrator, in return for letting the donor watch her use it.

Both exciting fantasy situations for sure, but how about searching for a root cause for a change, instead of requesting specific men to come forward? Perhaps something altogether different is desired by either woman; lots of adoration by one, and more opportunities to seduce a man by the other?

Both ladies will find what they yearn for via Lit, I have no doubts about that. But what about me? For which reasons – quite specifically – do I search for a woman for exchanging intimate mails with?

My way for achieving better orgasms, genital ones or "brain orgasms", is far more complex than the problem both ladies have. I search for a connection with a woman first, and later on I will look for something as vague as "meaning" in my connection.

In my latest connection, which ended recently, the meaning we thought we had found was feeling deeply in love with each other. A downright silly approach, as I see that now, for a man who is married, and who plans to stay married to his wife, despite missing intimacy and marital sex. Am I really a polyamorous human being? I do not know for sure.

So what am I REALLY looking for; what is the void, or what are the voids that I aim to compensate for, by cheating on my wife via mails with another woman?

Most significant void for me: not only do I no longer receive intimate attention from my wife, she has also "taken away from me" opportunities for giving her something in the intimate realm. So my "root cause" is lack of a taker for my desires to give, if you come right down to it.

And void compensation-wise, I look for a woman who direly needs, what I yearn to give her. That is the true essence of my longing.

Now my difficulty for making the right connection stems from two sources mainly: far more Lit women are looking for men to jack off for them, than complex men with a need for giving. And #2: the kind of woman I look for, does not peruse the Lit Personal ads often. Maybe a third difficulty as well: when such a woman sees my ad, she may not believe her eyes, or she may be afraid to respond, for fear of getting hurt.

Because a further obstacle exists as well: the needy woman and the needy me must get to like one another, when we meet. Countless little things must fall in place for that to happen, including some physical attraction to one another.

Perhaps another item may help, with the right kind of woman at least: not only do I feel the need for void compensationI described above, I also feel a strong need for an intellectual connection. With an American woman that is. My non-American friends where I live now, on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, have not watched the election yesterday as passionately as I did, and were not as elated as I was about its outcome.

I can even imagine a meeting of our minds and brains, before our "libidos" begin to click for one another. After all, there exists something like sapiosexuality. And if that develops and unfolds, maybe it may make up for the deficiencies that any relationship has necessarily, which does not have a real-life component also.

BTW, for me all these musings were quite instructive; I learned something additional about myself. Whether any reader of my ad felt the same way(?), I shall see.

hello Inspector, Thanks for your kind comment; I sincerely apreciate it.
 
I am the "latest connection" mentioned in the post. Please don't ask me about the relationship. I'm still in love and you won't get a useful answer. Ask him. It's okay with me if he tells you. I'll only say that I was young and immature, and I fell in love by mistake. He worked dilligently to help me with my side of the relationship. I changed, a lot, but not fast enough


My generation has to "review" everything, so here is my review.

☆☆☆☆☆ 5 stars. A rare find. I wasn't what he wanted, but I'm not sorry for our time together.


Love,

Jamie
 
nicely written post. I'm not as articulate as GBlock but I can see where he is coming from and he speaks a lot of truth. Sometimes I feel we keep searching for something impossible, because in the end there is only so much connection we can achieve here and we always need and want more.
 
Good morning to you later, Jamie

Dear precious Jamie, I appreciate your kind testimonial; a bit too kind maybe. In many ways I enjoyed our time together as well. Thank you very much for posting.

I wish you all the best for your future endeavors. I am sure for another man than me "all the right things" will fall into place with you. Good luck to you!

Thank you Passionate_Gent, you wrote some words worth pondering about.
 
Of course people are seeking to full a void. Seeking another to fix their problems. Why? Seems like human nature for many. But a better approach IMO is fix yourself. Do what you can to make yourself whole. Fill yourself with self love. Only then can you achieve real happiness, with or without a partner.

What am I seeking? Nothing. My life is filled with abundance and I am truly blessed.
 
If Lit had like buttons I would have hit it on your post.
You said alot of good things up until election results. Lol. Wasn't what I wanted but I guess will have to do. Lol

Good for you, Jada. Your excitement with your own life and what all you have accomplished already, are well known around here.

I wonder whether you realized also, that you are telling me that a desire to give something to another person, you see as a "sort of crutch"? A crutch not necessary, if only one self-loved oneself sufficiently enough?

I thank you a lot for your friendly comments. But - as you have seen - it just did not work out.

Good luck to you in the future
 
Thanks for all the Fish!

I am going to withdraw from Lit for a while, "to pursue other interests," I think is the phrase.

Thanks to everyone who sent me pm's. I'll answer them before I go.

Love,

Jamie

How is giving something to another a crutch? Do you mean a crutch for them? As in if I give them this... They won't have to do for themselves?

When I say "give", I don't necessarily mean some material thing. Doesn't cost a thing to give a smile or a hug or my time. Sometimes all a person needs is someone to listen to them. How would this be a crutch?

It's not one sided for me. Those I give to, also give back to me and IMO, that's a good thing.

Do I need other people? Not necessarily. I desire them. Here's a poem that I wrote some years ago.

TO BE WANTED

I don’t want to be needed,
Because I know that I’m needed
By many, every day.
It’s not hard to be needed.
Everyone is needed by someone.
But I need to be wanted.
For it’s a much better feeling;
To be wanted than needed.
