the quick (and pertinent) facts:
1. i'm 23.
2. i'm shy.
3. i've never had a boyfriend.
4. i've never been kissed.
5. i've been reading romance novels for nearly 10 years.
6. i write erotica in my spare time.

so that's the situation. i honestly don't know much about male-female dating rituals, and i'm really too damn shy. *grimace* growing up with strict asian parents ("no boys! study, study, study!") sort of set the pattern for my behavior with guys, so that avoiding guys has been the norm. haha. i can't entirely blame my upbringing for my situation. i do have twinges of self-esteem issues, when my size12 self wishes to be a size2, but those moments come further apart as i've learned to accept myself---small breasts and all (although i'm not going to lie: i'd dearly love to lose 15 pounds and gain two cup sizes. :p).

but i digress... i have a pretty good imagination, and that's where the erotica writing comes into play. but the thing is: looking at me, and even knowing me, no one would ever think about the wild fantasies and erotic scenarios that stream into my head at different times. i'm the typical good little asian girl: quiet, respectful of elders, book smart, slightly submissive, and always acting properly in public.

and then, there's the other side of me: the side that no one sees. it's my erotica writing. it's my love for fishnet and lace stockings, garters, and bustiers. it's my obsession with sexy shoes. it's the black leather corset i keep hidden in the back of my closet. it's the "me" that sometimes goes out in public without underwear or a bra. it's the part of me that has dozens of photos of myself wet and naked in the shower (hidden on my hard drive, of course. ;) ). it's the part of me that has a remote controlled wireless vibrator and a jar of honey dust just waiting to be used.

so, i ask your opinion: should i be more up-front about the other side of me? or should i keep it hidden?

hello,

How interesting, there are a few similarities between you and I.

What should you do?
You should do what you feel is right. My guess is that you already have an idea of what you want and who you are. If you feel a desire to be bold and shed the cloak of shyness, then do so. If you feel as if you would like to remain shy and reserved, then do so for the time being.

I know you'll probably hate this but here is an analogy of what I am trying to say.

When a bird is ready to enter the world, it begins to crack at the egg which it is in. The worst thing that anyone could do is to crack the egg for the little bird before it is ready.

Look with in yourself for it is a truth unto humanity that the best answers come from within us. Not from with out it.

If you currently have a good sense of "who you are" right now, then my opinion is that you should listen to your heart and not so much to your brain. Our brains are muddled with logic and the heart is not.

For this specific situation which you have described, it is a question which you should ask your heart and not your brain.

but hey, just my opinion :)
 
I think your decision should be based on how comfy you are with how you are. Maybe part of you feels scared of your desire for kink or maybe you long to be able to do those wonderful things you do. I think you should play it by ear and see what happens.
 
I think you have a very intriguing situation going there. (Very hot as well!) Dont give it up by flaunting just yet sweetie.
 
thanks for the replies and advice. i'll definitely need to think about it some more before i decide what to to.

^_^
 
This comes from a book a good friend gave to me.....

"Self development is like a fruit tree. The growth of the tree is invisible to the human eye, yet one day, it will bear fruit."


Just try not to give your fruit away too soon - let it ripen cuz' then it will be that much sweeter.

All things considered - be true to yourself. :rose:
 
Hi and welcome to Lit. I keep most of this part of me here because my friends and family would freak if they knew. To me, that makes it all the more fun, though. I think you should do what makes you comfortable. Hang out here a while and get to know people. There's also a writer's board here where you can get advice and such.
