I want the proposal to be around September.. maybe July..
there aren't a lot of gift giving holidays during the end of summer and sometimes I don't want to wait until Christmas.

I guess I'll have to wait to ask you until July. :mad::mad:
 
Christmas season is here, ready or not, like it or not.....and with it come Christmas/Christmas Eve engagements. I'm curious if there is any studies out there that show the success of the Christmas engagements compared to those at any other time of year? What do the Litsters think? Thumbs up or thumbs down on the Christmas engagements?

Personally, I think it's cheesy as hell. I'd prefer a complete surprise. If you're in a relationship with someone, both of you know it's headed in that direction. At least you would think so. Christmas, Valentine's Day and any other major holiday/occasion is way too suspect for such an event.

I don't think Christmas engagements have a better chance of success than any other. It always boils down to the two people involved.
 
Keeping with the Christmas theme, remember that one Christmas when you were little, or maybe not so little, and there was one thing you desperately wanted. You just had to have it. It was all you could think about. And then Christmas morning came and you tore through the presents until you found it. Sweet mother of Jesus, yesssss!!!!! Then what......?

Sometimes the desire for something is greater than the thrill of having it. The actuality could never live up to the want. The desire swelling beyond proportion....

How did you handle it as a kid? How do you handle it as an adult? And isn't it sweet when desire and having are equals?
 
Wowwww... Two questions with a Christmas theme before Thanksgiving?! Is this legal? I mean, what about the pilgrims and the Mayflower! Oh and the Macy's Parade. ;)
*Shakes head*

I happen to have a permit for speaking of Christmas before Thanksgiving. Don't make me pull it out.

Blah, blah, blah... I want to see the permit!
I've taken the word of others, only to be disappointment in the competence and thoroughness of their permit. No more half ass finished projects. No way! Plus, I'm a visual learner and like to compare for myself.
 
Thanksgiving

I'm not going to wax poetically about all that I'm thankful for. I'm not going to challenge or ask you to either. Instead, I want you to all to consider happiness. What makes you happy? I challenge you to relentlessly purse that which makes you happy. Pursue it like a dog on a bone, don't let minutia distract you. Be happy, only then can you be truly thankful.

I think if I were to always go after what really made me truly happy, police and restraining orders might follow.:rolleyes:

Since Thanksgiving is LONG GONE here and the craziness had begun immediately after November 11th....I do have a little story....

I come from a huge family of 14 children....not a lot of money for presents growing up, was prepared not to get what we asked for, but happy just the same. However, I can vividly remember my older teenage brother one Christmas...sitting and waiting patiently for his presents while we opened ours. Finally all the presents were opened but there was none for him. He sat dejected on the rug...until my Dad called his name and said...."hey take a look out the window" and pointed outside. My brother jumped up, looked out the window and started hooting and hollering!! Outside in the back yard was a brand new Yamaha 250 snowmobile! He flew outside in his winter boots and pjs and was driving it around the yard.....lol! While technically not totally for him, he was the one it was meant for. It was a beautiful machine....until my sister ran it into one of the trees in the laneway 3 days later.....the first of many such mishaps....

It was a large sum of money for my parents to fork out....farming must have been good that year....;)

Enough with Christmas and Thanksgiving........

Safe words. The great security blanket of sex. Used to let one partner know when the fun & games have gone far enough. How many actually use them? I can see their usefulness but I can also see how not using them would be even better. I want my partner to know me well enough that they know my boundaries and can tell when it's time to stop. I guess it's a little like mountain climbing, you can either use ropes or you can free climb. Which are you?
 
In the past, the safe word that's worked best for him is "Did you notice the new jewelry store across from Zitomers"
He didn't even need to say it twice. I was off and dressed in no time.

ROFL! I so expected that to be your safe word. Nice twist! :)

I have to disagree, Chained. An open discussion of likes, dislikes, and boundaries is probably adequate for vanilla sex. But what if your tastes run to, ummm...edgier play? :cattail:

Bondage sex, predicament sex, consensual non-consent. Those, particularly the latter two, should at least have safe words. If you can channel "The Force" and read your partner to the point of not needing them, great! But better to have them in place than not.

I like entertaining this fantasy as well, but my man is not a mind reader. Boundaries get pushed-- and limits, for me, exist, and sometimes surprise me (or, us) mid-act, despite all prior discussion.

So, yes, I need a safe word. They make me feel *safe* :)

Trouble is, at times I find myself so torqued up, and in a fog, that I forget my effing safe words... Or forget that they're even available! #submissiveblondemoments
 
I have had safe words thrown at me as my safety net. I have never used them.
