Address catching/getting caught by roommate

[provenredhead]

So I have had an interesting few weeks (right around the time I joined here lol... is there some sort of Literotica effect?)

Well let me start out by saying that I'm a guy and my roommate is a girl. We have been friends for a really long time. To the point where we consider each other almost family.

Well anyways often the pitfall of having a roommate is sometimes you learn more about the person than you were expecting.

I think you all know where I'm going here.

Well one night while my roommate was out at the bar and I knew that she wasn't going to come back for some time, I decided to, well, pay peter a visit with my right hand (and occasionally left hand lol).

So I start out checking out some of the usual naughty pictures (many of them on here) and was really getting into it. Well sure enough, my roommate walks in on me (door was open to my home office) right in mid stroke. Yup, pants around ankles, hard as a rock, hand on my wang. Yea...

She pretty much said "Whoops", closed the door and turned around. Needless to say, I was somewhat embarrassed. And no, this isn't a porno so she wasn't like "Ohh... Let me help you with that" (cue 70's funk music).

The next day we were eating breakfast and I was hoping the night of drinking helped her forget about it but she pretty much said, "Well at least someone got some last night" and chuckled. I pretty much apologized and she said no problem, maybe hang a hat on the door or something next time (I think she forgot the door was wide open ).

Well that's where it sat until the other day. Well I ended up getting in really early from work and wandered into the living room. There she was, sitting on the couch, on a towel, doing the deed. Completely naked.

Well she let out a little scream (not from what you think... from me catching her), and covered up. I have actually seen her topless before since she tends to flash her boobs every now and then when she's drunk. But this is the first time I've seen her, well, like that.

Anyway I went into my office to answer a few emails and she knocked on the door apologizing. She said she had just gotten out of the shower and it was nice and warm in the living room. Well, she said, the moment kinda caught her right and well...

The thing I'm trying to ask here is how do I keep this from getting weird? We both have seen each other in some pretty compromising situations and, well, when I look at her, I see her on the couch. Actually it's somewhat of a turn on for me and I don't want that to get in the way...

I think that the best way to keep it from getting weird is to laugh it off. If she brings the situation up then you can both share a chuckle over it but don't take advantage of the situation by whipping it out when you know full well that she's on her way home.
You know that she masturbates and she knows that you masturbate. There's nothing wrong with getting caught once in a blue moon, but don't make it a habit unless you're gonna start sleeping in the same bed.

I live with four other people. At least two of them have accidentally walked in on me naked, and one accidentally flashed me her naked husband when she entered the bathroom. Living with people, things get intimate, even if it's not what you're aiming for. You have to learn to smile, face each other the next day, and remember that on a certain level, your roommates are your family.

 

[BlueSugar]

the playing field has been leveled.

Karma maybe?
maybe she did it on purpose so you wouldn't feel too bad?

whatever the reason ... laugh it off!
everything will smooth over in time.

Define wierd.

...how do I keep this from getting weird? We both have seen each other in some pretty compromising situations and, well, when I look at her, I see her on the couch. Actually it's somewhat of a turn on for me and I don't want that to get in the way...

uh-huh.

Here's what you do: fuck her eight ways from silly, type of the rest of it, and submit it to Penthouse Letters.

Oddly enough have been sort of almost been there and done that.

I had a roommate (female) some years ago. One evening I had to run back to the house from a party I was at and just as I rounded the corner into the hallway she stepped out of the shower in the bathroom which was directly in my line of sight.

I raised an eyebrow, smirked, gave her the once over and said "Not bad, Not bad at all!"

She screamed "Oh Shit!" when she saw me and grabbed a towel to cover up with.

I retrieved what I came home for and left while she was doing whatever the female of our species does for an hour and a half in the bathroom.


A week or so later when I thought I was home alone I stepped out of the shower to the applause and wolf whistles of My roommate and another female friend of ours. I laughed, took a bow and wrapped the towel around me and shut the door and when about my business.

To my surprise after that she thought nothing about sharing the bathroom taking showers and getting ready to go in any and all stages of undress.

Some six months later we settled our curiosity about each other but that is another story.


Motto....Shaken but not stirred can lead to a nice "drink".

I know this is the "How To" forum, but am I the only one that found that scenario a little hot??

 

[mississippiGuy]

Glad I am not the only one...

I would love to be caught or catch!

Could be the start of something special.

Depends how far apart these two incidents were. If they happened within a few weeks of each other, it wouldn't surprise me that she did it intentionally.

 

[cebalrai]

When I was living with a female roommate after college, I walked in on her with her skirt up, rubbing her vulva pretty vigorously. I said "whoops" and walked out of her room. We laughed it off, no problem. She told me she finished up after I left.

We ended up having sex a couple times over the next few months. We both broke up with out significant others in the span of three days, and... you know...

It's been my experience that most women plan everything, and if so inclined can force the unbendable laws of physics that control our very universe to do a little dance and serve them lemonade while wearing a pink tutu if they wish.

I would put my vote in with the "She knew what she was doing" crowd. Now whether this was just to level the playing field or because she wants more, probably the best person to ask is her.

Nah. He said he got home really really early from work. who hasn't done something like that in a "public" place in the apartment when you thought you were going to be alone for another long while?

 

[Not Normal]

I think you two are now even. Laugh it off if it comes up.

Also kudos to you roommate for using the towel on the public couch!

Wow lots of replies here. So yea, we did laugh it off. I mean who doesn't masturbate.

But she really did not know that I was going to be coming home that early. Originally it was supposed to be a pretty late day for me and it was somewhat of a fluke that I was home early.

To all those who were like "Jump her bones dude and totally get off with here there", well not all of life is like a porno. If it was, most guys would be pizza delivery guys (Ding Dong. I have your pizza right here, with extra sausage, chicha chicha bow).

Yes she is hot. But sometimes you don't want to risk a good friendship for the sake of getting freaky

Besides, if I really need something to look at, I can always oogle all of the cute ladies here on lit

I'm entirely too SF to read some of this threads lately. Between this thread and the ideas in this thread, most especially Erika's contributions... man O man, I can't take much more!


Oh, I forgot to add my two cents on the topic, you're smart to laugh it off but then again...

Another edit: Welcome to Lit., it's nice to see more posters.

 

[The Gimp]

Yes she is hot. But sometimes you don't want to risk a good friendship for the sake of getting freaky

That's exactly what I was thinking. Upgrading to a full service monogamous relationship could be a good thing but it would be all but impossible to live with her while maintaining a non exclusive mutual masturbation arrangement

 

[supremeshadow]

You know, it sounds like you two are mature enough to handle these situations. You don't have to do anything really to make sure it doesn't get weird. As long as you or her don't think it's weird, it's not weird. I'm sure you both could have assumed prior to this that you both masturbate (at least time to time). So, though it might be a shock walking in on someone in the act, it's not like it's some deep dark secret.

Anyway, if I were you, I wouldn't make too big a deal out of it. If you make a big deal out of it, then it will be weird.

I Just Hope

Hello there, new poster here....
I just hope that if I was ever in the same situation that I would have the ability to act in the same manner as you two did. I think that I would, since I usually can think clearly about things....unfortunately sometimes the human body's physical reactions try their damnedest to get in the way.
I agree with how you ended up handling the two events completely.

 

[StrapFantasy]

Yep, I have to add to the applause. You both seem to understand the value and significance of your friendship. A hearty well done to you both!

 

[Eilan]

To all those who were like "Jump her bones dude and totally get off with here there", well not all of life is like a porno.

It's not? I was lied to!

 

[HornyWithBooks]

Okay, this is my first post on the boards here, but it's something I can relate to. I've a good friend in my apt complex who I also happen to work with. And we've been hanging out more and more together lately...well, in the course of talking, we both learned we're rather horny people! One thing leads to two and we're making out on the futon, hands roaming everywhere, we nearly have sex...etc. Then another day she spent the night and we kind of went at it early the next morning. And then again she came over one morning and we just kinda snuggled up together and wound up actually having sex. It's like we start getting wound up and all ability to say no falls away.

Anyway, it's leading me to my point (really!)...when we started talking and getting to know one another better, we agreed that things would only get weird if we let them get weird. So even tho she has an eye for a different guy at work (and frankly, I totally have an eye for her!) we just talk about stuff when it happens and it's all good.

Oddly enough, she introduced me to Literotica...I wonder if she's on the boards?
