Night Thread

pokepoke27

Poke - on other peoples pages. 

Any - I couldn't do without the foreplay. I also don't think I could handle so little sex unless there was some kind of problem. I know it's different for everyone - but I've gone for so long not being able to get some whenever I want that when we ARE together I just want to jump him every minute, it seems.

H and I actually disagree about the whole circumcision thing. I think uncut is my preference for our future hypothetical sons, and H is on the cut side of the fence. So we'll see, if we have ever have sons.

Any, when I first read that, I thought you meant you didn't have strong feelings on whether you have kids and you were going to let him make the decision. I was like huh, that's interesting.

I still haven't decided on STDs yet. When we were getting married in Vegas, we had a few really cool designs to choose from. Now that we're getting married here, I keep looking for something with the Chicago skyline, and everything I've found is fail.

Yeah, it's totally H's decision. I've never had a penis so I don't know which is better. I don't think H will want to, because he wasn't.

I feel that my H is the same way. I don't know that he's ever turned me down.

Me on the other hand? Once a week and I'm all set. I dont have a huge sex drive, and now, I don't have drive at all and haven't this entire pregnancy. H has been a trooper though.

Thanks for that.

Generally speaking, I like to do it a few times a week, and so does he. It doesn't always happen, especially when he's studying a lot or there's something stressful going on, but I think the longest we've ever gone without doing it was 2 weeks or so.

Circumcision for our future sons isn't something I even thought about talking to FI about, I just assumed it was a given. I should probably check on that.

I don't know, I get that it must be painful, but the pain goes away and it's not like they remember it.

Holly, why on earth did that chick post anti-circ articles? Was she preggo or a pediatrician or what? That is a weird thing to post on FB more than once. 

ETA those skyline STDs are really REALLY neat.

<div>I can deal, but yeah, I don't really like it either. We started out our marriage with a 6 month dry spell (4 of which was just because I was waiting to get in to see a doctor for my BCPs, because H wanted me to actually get a gyno and not just go to a clinic where I wouldn't get a pap done, like I have for the last 5 years), and it never really picked up again after that. H just works a lot and is constantly stressed out by his job, and he's just...older. It took a while to get used to going from a 22 year old who wanted to put his d*ck in anything that moved, and a 32 year old who'd already done college, slept with a bunch of chicks, and whatnot, lol. Plus, he's never had to work to get it, so it's never been a big deal (not that I am implying anyone with a high sex drive is desperate, it's just the way H thinks about things).</div><div>
</div><div>Anyway. I'd be happy with once a week, but something always comes up, so at this point I'm just like whatever. I'm sure once I start school it'll be like...never. Blah I say.</div><div>

Posted by angelstar975[/QUOTE]

That's my logic.

And then people argue, "Well let your son make that decision then!" but the thing is, H was cut, and I don't know that he's ever thought, "Well, if my parents wouldn't have cut me as a baby my life would be so much better!!"

And like I said, I know someone that wasn't cut and he DOES wish his parents would have cut him as a baby.

But what do I know, I'm heartless.
