See, you get me.

See, you get me.

Well, I was a Boy Scout. And in fact, did indeed earn the safety merit badge.

I also earned (that I can recall): First Aid (if you get hurt, I can patch you up), Sailing (really! I shit you not!), Pioneering (ropes and logs), Orienteering (if you give me a map and compass...), cooking (as in "hot" and "now we're..."), and Photography (I can document it all...).

Think about that list for a minute....I think it makes me a uniquely qualified lover...(except for the sailing one, that one is just cool)

You had me at ropes, darlin.

I kind of thought the "map and compass" one was funny...think about it...

How much of an effort do you make for your security? If you're in bed to you get up to lock the front door if you realize it's unlocked. If you think you left the iron on, do you turn around and check? If you're at dinner and can't remember if you locked the doors on your car, will you go out and lock them? Will you roll over and load your weapon on the night stand once the lights are off? (GB reply alert!)

I realize the greater the threat the more it drives actions but what about those things you do "just to be sure"?

Before I had a kid? Virtually none.

Now? The basics.

Once she goes out on her own I'm sure it will be back to virtually none.

Almost none, when at home. I rarely lock the door (it's a secluded rural location, where there hasn't been any serious crime for decades). I lock the car, but that's just habit. Weapons? Nope. Not going there...

Me neither.

Gentlemen. The potency of your weapons is beyond question...

Would you rather have a little of something great or a lot of something good?

 

[lakesailer_mi]

Would you rather have a little of something great or a lot of something good?

Well, it really depends on what the things are.

A lot of times, I'm happy with "good." I often think in general that "great" is overrated compared to good.

So, I'll with a lot of something good.
But it could so depend on the specifics.

This is pretty much my answer as well. It's relative.


1 scoop of my favorite gelato over 2-3 of bargain basement variety

Or several nights of good sex with someone I enjoy over a single night of great sex.

I'll go the opposite way from those above. I'm not satisfied with mediocrity. I live for those very special, if rare, moments — the ones that come with an emotional rush that tells me that something great has just unfolded. That can arise in many contexts unconnected with sex — it could be as simple as an exchange of glances that reveals that a complete stranger shares the same passion for a piece of art, music or other expression.

I know: I'm set up for disappointment most of the time.

I am happy with the good. Great is nice, but I'd rather just have a steady-state of good. I'm easy that way.

I can totally respect this. And I think it totally depends on the situation.

Here's an example for me though. I like scotch (no secret). It's expensive and the older (more time in the barrel) the more expensive.

Now, mediocre low aged scotch is not that good. I'll drink it if it's the only choice, but it's pretty mediocre. In all honesty, if that's all that's available, I'm likely to choose something else.

On the other hand, I once tried a 25 year old scotch. It was in a bar, so VERY expensive ($50 for essentially a single shot). The same brand of scotch, but an 18 was also there. I had both that night. In all honesty, the 25 year old was not twice as good. It was smooth. And I'm glad I tried it. But, if given the choice between one 25 yo, and two to three 18 yo? (which is the trade off), I'm taking the good over the great.

Just my 2 cents.

As so often the case, I agree with MF. I wilt in mediocrity. Existence without joy. That said, I don't quite have MF's willingness to leap. I am a cautious creature in so many ways.

Maybe MF will give leaping lessons!

[Mindfondler]

Only during a Leap Year.

Three years?

*sits back and waits for spectacular class*

No pressure.

Endless gots a point....

I have a busy life, fun kids n grandkids. Some vol work. Since I wont be exclusive to anyone, I have to cast far and wide to get a good date. I am very lucky, but it takes work and patience.

We all like a little tease, to be seduced, but what is the line for you? When does the tease turn frustrating, when do you cross the line from being aroused to being irritated?

I don't know if I can quantify a line. And I suppose it's further complicated by what you mean be being teased.

I like to be teased. In the context of...ummm...certain restraint situations.

Otherwise...no? Really going to need more information.

It's the point when I realize she charges for anything beyond teasing.

Super awkward.

I need to stop assuming the scantily clad women in hotel bars are just into me for me. *cries*

 

[Suz_anne]

What if charging enhances the tease? That's been a fun roleplay a time or two with my mister.

I guess I honestly don't know. I'd kind of even like to find out, with the right person and the right setting.

That's all fine and good until someone tries to push the $100 bill into someone else's mouth.

Who would do such a thing? Savages.

I guess if you have to clearly articulate a "no filthy germ infested money in any orifice" rule...so be it.
