nothin a roll of dimes cant fix

 

unrelated to what everyone has said here, there lie other implications of (heavy) sexual activity, especially regarding lust vs love. This is something that the most careful of people can

people used to save sex til marriage in order to fully devote themselves to their partner. It was expected that people were virgins up until marriage. Nowadays it seems that socially people are expected to have sex before marriage (almost experimentally--like doing drugs). Some feel the need to have sex on a regular basis, some need it with someone new on a regular basis, others are content waiting. Depending on what category you fall in, you may have trouble grasping the concept of people promoting abstinence or vice-versa. Some need it and must have it, others don't give it a 2nd thought.

Although it seems harmless at the time, having too much sex can be detrimental to ones' emotions in the sense that it makes it cheap. It no longer becomes something special that two people share intimately, it becomes a good time in the public bathroom of a place with some chick you'll never see again. You won't realize it until it's gone, but just make sure when u do it that it actually means something to you--and that it's right. Because once you start doin it with too many girls that you just don't give a sh|t about, when you do find the right girl the feeling and intimacy of that moment just might not be the same between you two.

So that is another pitfall of sexual activity that people prob don't think about. I guess you know you're over this when you can do it with a not-so attractive girl (won't call her ugly) who you love and not have to close your eyes and picture some chick u saw on the internet the day before. =] (and no i don't screw ugly chicks)

gug <--overly bored at work if u haven't noticed

 

my bf believes it wrong to bring a kid into this world if u cannot sufficiently provide for him/her....and its also a struggle since we're young and still in school....but can u imagine the nightmares and scars if u did get an abortion?

birth control pills are not 100%....im worried about a friend rite now because she's been feeling sick..and she's late...we're hoping nothing is wrong....and she was on the pill and did not miss any days....nothing is gauranteed...i guess i need to sit down and talk w/my bf clearly..jus in case..

 

While I am not a youngster, my wife and I have frequent sex, by that I mean at least daily sometimes more than once a day as well. (I am 52 and she is 50) In the last 5 years I was diagnosed as having Hepatitus C, which is spread by blood to blood contact, and while not a sexually transmitted disease it has caused us to use condoms
.
This was discovered when I was donating blood. They had only developed the test for it in the last few years. I had to supply a list of all the times and where I had donated blood.
I am not really sure of how I was infected, but there are several options as to how it may have happened. I may have contracted it by a one time sharing of a needle 30 or so years ago, another way may have been when I was administering first aid and pinching off an arterial bleed (this was on several occasions) and another possibility is sex with an infected woman while she was in her period. The tail end of the 60's and all of the 70's were some heavily active times for me, the "Free Love" era, and sex for the sake of sex was a common occurence, as well as group activities, in some of the places that I lived in. My wife knows of my past activities, so it's not a big secret.

At the present time by outward appearance I seem healthy, but because of the time that I have had the disease I also have cirrhosis of the liver (not always contracted by excessive alcohol use). I am awaiting the time that I may be eligible for a liver transplant, but I have to be sicker than what I am outwardly.

 

Go OLDMAN! I hope when I'm your age, I still have that much of a desire.

 

interesting everyone is avoiding the STD part of the question.. what would you guys do if you got an incurable disease..i honestly have no idea how i would react.. and hope that i never have to...

 

Aside from a liver transplant HEP C is not treatable after a few years, there are some treatments similar to those for HIV/AIDS, but at the point I am at they aren't effective and could be fatal. I had a major event where I lost 3 liters of blood a little more than a year ago, that makes me inelegible for the treatments. So realisticly I have a limited amount of time left. How much is up to me and the doctors and when I become sick enough to be eligible for a liver transplant. No I don't regret anything that I have done in the past and (borrowing the lyrics of "Where Is My Life" by Ken Saydak)"I really can't complain. If I could do it over there's a damn good chance I screw it up again."

When I was in the ER last year I had a real close encounter with death, not the first and not the last if it were I wouldn't be here typing this.........obviously. You just have to take a philosophical approach....life is terminal and nobody gets out alive, you just have to do what you can between the beginning and the end. I've been down the tunnel more than once and just keep shutting off that damn light's switch, and walking back. I wasn't scared for myself as much as for my wife and son. The year before when I thought I was going to lose my wife in surgery or to cancer and I was more scared of losing her than I was when I was the one who might have died. Well let's not dwell on this it tends to make some become maudlin. Live life to the fullest, and have NO REGRETS.
