Often your unconcious mind will use people, places and situations that are known to you to represent what is happening within it.Minouners said:That could be it... I'll try to find that book and keep you posted! Thanks for the tip hot stuff!![]()

Be wary of simple dream definition dictionarys they are rarely accurate as they are often written by people with little understanding of psychology.

SouthernGaGal said:Thank you =)
Minouners said:So how you been? Tell us about yourself!
SouthernGaGal said:Where to start? I'm 20 years old, from a small southern town. I've only been with 2 girls, but it's something I'd love to try again, with the right person.

Minouners said:Yeah I'm in the same boat as you are and completely clueless as to what I should do with my life. I've been trying to figure it out for over a year now and needless to say that it's not very encouraging. But I do hope that your search is successful and that you find your calling!![]()
SouthernGaGal said:I know what you mean.. I thought I had everything planned out and then I realized that I was completely..lost..if that makes any sense. I wish you the best as well, and hopefully you'll keep me updated.. I think I'll be around the boards for a while =)
Minouners said:Sounds like a plan! I've been around for a while and plan on keeping it that way myself. Thanks for the wish, I'll be needing that for sure!
Any plans for the weekend?
SouthernGaGal said:I'm just going to south GA to visit a friend..that's about it. How about you?

Minouners said:Nothing exciting to be honest. Just spent the afternoon playing games and now making some supper and tonight probably a whole lot of nothing. Fun stuff I tell yah!
Hope you have fun!![]()
Welcome.ncgirl1976 said:Hi I am new to posting, but I found this thread and I knew I had found my place. My husband tells me all the time about his past sexual encounters (God forbid I mention mine) and has told me that he had a FMF experience with an ex. When I mentioned that I was open to trying that, he looked at me like I had lost my mind. I have always been curious but never had the opportunity to take it further. When I use the word "discreet" I literally mean no one in my life would understand. Being a mother of a son makes it harder because I don't want him to think this is something that he will go through (although if he grows up and decides to be with men, I would fully support his decision). My biggest problem is that I have no idea how to approach someone. I wouldn't want my husband to know (the look told me all I need to know about that) and I am afraid that it would turn into something more than a one time "I was just curious" thing.

Well IMHO, this is really something that your partner has got to get to grips with and try and understand how you feel right now. Going behind his back is not the right thing to do, above all else it will probably spoil the experience as you will be feeling guilty even as you try and explore your feelings.ncgirl1976 said:Hi I am new to posting, but I found this thread and I knew I had found my place.

I know small towns way too well and certainly can't blame you. Gossip travels faster than the speed of light sometimes.Terra_Cide said:Another bi girl in a committed relationship here... and trust me, I know all about the word "discreet"! [...]
It really depends on the woman. For me, sex with a woman is actually *less* intimate than it is with a man - even men other than my husband. With a woman, it's about friendship, support, comfort, caring. With a man, it's those things too but it also includes passion, vulnerability, an opening of heart and soul.aussie_ella said:First up, this is very cool. Being able to talk about how the whole 'bi-curious' thing works is fantastic.
But. It is very apparent from your posts that you have never actually done this, that is, sex with a woman, and I think you may be totally underestimating the emotional connection two women have in bed. It's nothing like sex with men (trust me, lots of experience with both), even with a woman you've only just met. It's MUCH more intimate (think of going down on another woman for starters), and there is no way you could both come out unscathed.
All of which presumes that there is an attachment that somehow needs to be accepted or avoided. If you fall in love with women, that's a real danger/opportunity that you have to face.What I'm trying to say is, it's all very well saying "if I'm clear from the start I don't want any strings then it's her problem if she develops feelings for me". But I think that's an incredibly detached, cold and selfish way of approaching it. Using a woman for sex is traditionally the domain of men, and I think it's dangerous territory for women, who frankly should be more compassionate, to get into. Sure, I've met a few lesbians out there who fuck around, but they're not happy and easily develop crushes too.
And there's the rub (pun intendedI think the idea of two married/hetero-committed women to get together is great. At least then there's not as much danger of one of them falling in love and finding themselves willing to live in a gay relationship, with all that entails, while the other is firmly in the closet. The closet is a very strong little box, and for those of us who've broken free, it's impossible to go back in. I don't think you can have your cake and eat it too.
Or, the mostly-straight strong ones.Anyway. Rant over. When it comes down to it, finding a sexy, femme, not-too-fucked-up lesbian is nigh on impossible!!! So sometimes we have to look outside the square and grab the straight, weak ones. LOL Great for the ego....for a while at least!
