[Lord Pmann]

Are you saying you brush your teeth before or after you cum in your mouth? (Sorry, Pmann, it was just there, I had too.....)

I'm classy and a neat freak. Before and after. *straightens bow tie*

 

[RacyRedLips]

I hate it when I am interrupted by someone who thinks they know where I am going, but are wrong. (Maybe I am taking too long to get to the point?)

I always think that about others but never about me. Even though I know I'm wordy.

Have you ever looked at personality trait you don't like and see at least a little bit of it in you? Do you acknowledge it and work towards change or do you try and dig the hole deeper to bury it in?

You bet. I have more than a few traits that I'd like to change or could do without. However, sometimes those traits work to my advantage, as they do for most people. So, other than a mental kick or note to self, I try not to worry too much about it. Especially at this point in my life....

 

[SMNaughtywife]

I guess I'm unintiated.

Sits down next to you. I'm thinking management doesn't flirt!
That's ok, I can still bat my eyelashes.

Have you ever looked at .... and do you acknowledge it and work towards change or do you try and dig the hole deeper to bury it in?

I'm sure there are some quarks in my personality that drive some crazy. If it's something blatantly obvious and brought to my attention, I'll correct it. But the subtle things all mod podged together have created a pretty kick ass me. Well, I think so at least.
Will I correct others that at times drive me bonkers, it depends on who. A subtle hint once is always nice, but if not picked up on, I remind myself to just look past it. Few things get under my skin, I'm good with the idea that those around me (family included) are not a direct reflection of who I am or what I believe in. That's what keeps me sane at times.

few things worse than the feeling of having to pass on something you really want. That chocolate bar when you are on a diet, that really great sale on shoes because just how many more shoes can a person have? Now this is clearly a wants vs needs post so things like hunger/thirst don't count. So how do you handle that feeling of unmet want? Do you just push it to the back of your brain and wait for it to go away? Do you try and get as close as you can to that want knowing that it's not really what you wanted (the absolute worst and very last option for me, it actually just makes the want even stronger for me)? Do you say "fuck it" and indulge anyway?

Oh those damn wants......

 

[rubydlite]

I cry and whimper in the corner and dream about when I can finally have it again...err....the shoes.
Ok...of course I don't cry and whimper but when I've had something really good the want for it never goes away. The type of want dictates the level of my internal whimpering.
Cheesecake. ..mmeh....I want it but can walk away....
Thigh quivering sex....indulge indulge indulge....if that were an option:/

 

[BradBigBrain]

I honestly just say no. In my head I tell myself I'm just not going to do that anymore. I've proved to myself I can quit just about anything at any time of I put my mind to it. I don't eat pork or beef much of at all and that includes bacon and pepperoni. I drink alcohol infrequently and I can stop after a few drinks. Desserts are easy to say no to.

Having said that...flirting is a hard habit to break.

Is this topic really about wants versus needs or is it about will power and denial?
I don't need a chocolate bar*, that's a want.... Do I have one? That's down to willpower. If that chocolate bar is right before me, with the tantilising prospect of that warm, pooling in mouth feel before sliding down my throat, not having it is self denial.

Do my wants remain unmet even if I've denied myself the indulgence....Absolutely. Will wanting that indulgence go away? Probably never completely, but it can be held at bay with rational thought, distraction or perhaps through rewarding myself some alternative pleasure.

Is that alternative indulgence a satisfactory substitute for what I really want?... Absolutely not. It's merely a replacement and will more than likely draw comparisons further highlighting the shortcomings of the substitute. I want what I want. Sometimes you need to say "fuck it" and indulge anyway.

So...the real question here is... Chained, did you by the shoes?

*btw, if I'm going to indulge in chocolate, it has to be good chocolate, something that entices and excites the senses...and stimulates the brain...
As with many wants, quality over quantity.

With regards to a certain food I want but know it's not good for me, I am pretty good at being near it and being able to pass on it. It's probably because I'm used to being around tasty treats and knowing it's not going to be beneficial to my body if I eat it. The same goes for an expensive item I want to buy. Would I love to have it? Sure! However, the strain my bank account would feel if I indulged on a luxury item for myself far outweighs my desire to have that item.
With all of that being said......if there is something I want that is not a necessity in my life (meaning needed to survive) I do try to indulge myself once in a while.....like maybe have that half of a cannoli , or buy that pair of shoes I've had my eye on for a while(I'll get the best deal no doubt). You have to have a balance of knowing when to indulge in your "wants".....if you don't ever give yourself any pleasure from any of your wants or desires, you can crack under the building pressure and then you'll just go wild....(i.e. -pigging out on food that's bad for you, going on spending sprees...doing "other" things too...)

Yeah....oh those damn wants indeed!

Going wild isn't such a bad thing. At times, it's just what we need.

In some areas of my life, I lack discipline. Go figure. There is something particular I'm craving and wanting right this very moment. However, it's not for me to have. I feel like a kid with candy dangling in front of my face. Rational thought and distraction are out the door, to the left and 100 miles down the road. Knowing well and full, should the opportunity present itself, I'd say fuck it, indulge in a heartbeat and to my content, then let the pieces fall where they may.

Some wants can't be substituted. I'd rather have a delicious, mouthwatering treat than a big-old sometimes bitter tasting carrot, thank you very much. I want what I want, when I want it. Condemn me. I'm just going to leave this post here while I go sulk and quietly whine to myself....in sheer hope that this "want" of mine goes away.

P.S. It's insanity to think one could ever have too many pairs of shoes!

 

[SMNaughtywife]

My theory is rather simple, indulge!! But, know that if you:
Eat/drink too much, your gonna have to work off those extra calories.
Shop excessively, your SO is gonna freak the fuck out on you.
Lusting for hot sex and it's a no-go, a cold shower should do the trick.

Tip toes in. It's so quiet around here these days, I'd hate to wake anyone up. So as you read, know that this is being typed in hush tones. With the holidays dead ahead many will be taking considerable time from work to enjoy with family and friends. Some will take 2+ weeks, others maybe just the actual day(s) itself. Either way, do you anticipate being on Lit more or less than "normal". And if not, will you miss it?

I've got ten days off, so probably a bit more than normal.

Friday/Monday off - 4 days over the weekend - so will probably be on here about the same amount of time as I usually am. Things are pretty quiet around here at Christmas so just looking forward to Boxing Day sales!!

Looks around, this place could use some sensory stimulation.

Yes, it definitely needs that. It might need some defibrillator paddles as well.

 

[Paul_Chance]

I find unwanted tongue usually generates a robust response.

 

[GiggLeGasm]

I'm ACLS certified

but I'm not sure I've ever heard of unwanted tongue. I need clarification there.

 

[Paul_Chance]

My brain made a strange connection to the defib comment.

I used to be a paramedic and once, in a training class on how to check if a person was really unconscious or just faking it, one of the old hands suggest starting mouth to mouth and slipping them the tongue.

Sounded like a good way to get a.) your tongue bitten and b.) sued - but it was funny.

I preferred another suggestion - start going through their pockets/wallet and see if they have any cash.

 

[SMNaughtywife]

^^^^ My mind made its own sentence ....

A tongue and paddles generates a certified robust response.

Excellent choice for generating a robust response.

Attempt #2, being a deep thinker isn't always easy

How many times have we all heard "that was harder than I thought" or "that was easier than I thought"? (Not the real question, btw ) it's almost as if expectations are about as accurate as the weather forecast. But just like the forecast we are addicted to expectations. We can't help ourselves. Expectations are tied to emotion, emotion is what places the perceived value to the expectation. Is it possible to not have expectations but just accept whatever it is for what it is? I'm not saying we shouldn't prepare, as preparation is paramount to our success. But what is the value of expectation? Wouldn't the frequency of our expectations not being met that the value of an expectation would diminish to the point that we would no longer have them?

For me, I mostly associate expectation with anticipation. And I loooooooooooove me some anticipation. That happy, stomach fluttery feeling that I get is something I enjoy so much that I don't mind (much) if the actuality doesn't live up to the hype. I guess you could say I enjoy the ride.

Sorry Papa C. I was out of the country and unable to help keep this place afloat as I normally do.

Well fuck man, that's just not acceptable.

I know this is an incredibly busy weekend for many and since things have quieted down here I'll keep it merry and bright

Best Christmas present as a kid, best Christmas present as an adult. Go.
