No, there is a time and place for every adventure.
Sure I have all those, but nope,, still not my thing. I have hobbies I can engage, new stuff I would like to try, plus other more important things to focus on now anyhow.

Also, a large percentage of marriages come from ONS and flings that keep on going. Probably 75-80% of the weddings I've been to since my early 30s started as bar/party/whatever hook ups and kept on going. That is how I met my girlfriend, and that is probably the most common non OLD of relationship establishment.

Again, you have to do with what works for you, but it is a false dichotomy to say either a person is looking/having hookups or they're looking for a serious relationship (you aren't the only one saying that). Both can be going on simultaneously.
Ok, that can happen. But for me, I don't do flings while looking for a relationship. I don't build relationships around the sex. I believe the sex adds to it, but not makes up all of it. So, emotional connection 1st, tons of hot sex afterward-probably 2-3 times a day, but with an already exclusive partner, where the emotions, trust and investment, are there.

I never cared for casual sex. Seems pointless for me. I take sex pretty seriously, and I know if I just slept with someone just to sleep with them and get a quick rush, I wouldn't feel good about myself because I know how I am, and I know my own personal convictions.

Definitely don't have anything against those who do enjoy it, though.

Especially since I have to be emotionally attached to the guy in order to feel sexually attracted to him. In your case it could simply mean that you just don't find her attractive, or maybe you want something meaningful. Nothing to over think.

Yea, the last time I hit it and quit it, it wasn't that fulfilling to me. Thanks for the advice.

Hey, if that is happening for you, power to you!!

How do you know? Aren't you the one who has never been on a date yet?
Not trying to be snarky, but you haven't had any relationships at all, so how do you know?

That can't be. If she knows what works for her, surely she must have experienced a bunch of different things and found that works for her. Otherwise it is just a fairy tale, and like all fairy tales, the world doesn't work the way we wish it to; heck, we don't work the way we wish to most of the time!

I hope you have her just confused with another poster.

does your friend just want you to turn this chick out, or is she looking for an FB?

I could never get down with an FB. After I got some, and if I didn't want to date her, then done done on to the next one.

I get it though, it does eventually get old.

I'll take what I can get. I even wake up licking my pillow and dreaming.....

How casual is casual?

Today on the way home from work I got pretty horny and aroused. Every time I try to lay low and stay away from women, my loins come calling. I have super high testosterone levels because I keep myself buff and in very very good shape.

If there was somebody to call or someone waiting for me when I got home, I would have had to wear sweatpants to work tomorrow if you catch my drift!!


Meow...meow!!
