b118 (7.17-1.2024): why virtual sex...

why virtual sex… [i]
written by a naverage man

…could be perceived (by some) as better than committed-relationship sex:
 
·       you can get what you want.
   o   in masturbation, you know yourself better than anyone else.
   o   in masturbation, you can live out your fantasies (skipping around from one-to-another) as well as your mind can allow.
   o   in prostitution, virtual sex, robot sex, you negotiate: you get what you want to purchase.

·       you can get it when you want it.

·       you can get it how you want it.

·       you can get it from whoever (in your mind) you want.

·       you can get it where you want (e.g. in the privacy of your own privacy).
 
you can even manufacture “burning desire” (etc.) in your mind.  after the sex is over, you can do whatever you want (e.g. sleep, watch the game, etc.).  no strings.
 
let’s contrast this with committed-relationship sex:

·       you might not even get it!

·       you probably won’t get it when, where, how, how-often and with who you most want.

·       you will definitely negotiate for it, except it is more of a convert, unspoken, smoke-and-mirrors negotiation.

·        the after-sex in a committed-relationship can be much more complicated.

·        a worst-case scenario would be akin to begging for nourishment, getting scraps, and getting those scraps from someone who could care less (or even despise you for it).

almost everyone knows someone (almost everyone? in a committed-relationship) who is not happy with his/her sex life within that relationship.
 
as i often deduce, the problem herein doesn’t lie within the people, per se… but the construct of conventional u.s.a. committed-relationships (e.g. cohabitation, marriage, monogamy rules, etc.).
 
as virtual sex becomes more-and-more affordable & available, conventional, u.s.a.-type committed-relationships may be perceived (by some) as having less and less value.

* the past is in the past...

...except for when it haunts your mind.

thoughts about a past relationship:

• it lasted from april-january (10-months), but (in reality) we were fighting within the first 30 days.
• her bpd (i wasn't sure what was going on) showed up the first time that i spent a couple of days away (on a trip that she would not attend).
• truth be told?  i knew she wasn't high value.  i would have strayed, given the opportunity.
• may was a good month,
• june was the first brawl,
• july was the thrilla-in-manilla,
• aug-oct was a roller-coaster of ups and downs,
• november was the last straw: a cut to my heart,
• december-jan was the captain save-a-ho show, and
• the end was official soon thereafter, 
• she immediately beamed s----- up (meaning: she was locked-in much earlier).

looking back on it, the 'relationship' (however toxic) was a great learning experience.   

b118 (7.16-1.2024): we want more than our fair share

we want more (than our fair share) [i]
by al iving thing

a simple psych-dynamic (maybe more than we can bare?)
at times (a bit titanic): we want more than our fair share
_______________________________________
 
·       in regard to behaviors… overeating, overdrinking, over-anything-ing… can be directly traced back to survival/thrival.

·       when living things perceive limited resources (water, security, sexual opportunity, food [e.g. sugars], territory, etc.) we tend to stockpile those resources – which could be perceived as wanting more than our fair share.
 
living things cannot not all-ways perceive that there are limited resources.
 
for example: if you didn’t “want more,” there would be no reason to breathe.

* 7.13.2024: former president (present frontrunner) shot

today (at a rally), another young u.s.a. male in possession of a semi-automatic weapon opened-fire on the presidential frontrunner (and the crowd at a rally)... hitting the presidential candidate in the ear (wounding him) while killing at least one of those in the crowd and wounding others.  the situation is presently unfolding.

people (especially those of the democratic persuasion) have been known to ask: "where were you when kennedy was shot?" -- recalling the sadness of the tragedy.   what they neglect to recall is that kennedy (although beloved by many) was also hated by many.

u.s.a. "us vs. them" politics has a way of creating love/hate scenarios... dividing humanoids into "black vs. white" groups -- all the while both groups want (mostly) the same things: freedom, safety/security, food/water/clothing, family betterment, etc.

b118 (7.13-1.2024): "that's a yellow card"

“that’s a yellow card” [i]
by a. w. arning
 
“that’s a yellow card”
a first-time warning, yes
it doesn’t really need to be a thing we must address
it might be something that you did or something that you said
“that’s a yellow card”
 
(the next one will be red)
___________________________________
 
·       i agree with richard cooper (and with orion taraban) that, as a younger man, i was often baited-into arguments and anger by women who (in all likelihood) wanted something other than me being angry.

·       once one's anger arises, however, he loses.
 
nowadays, i avoid heated arguments (especially with women).  i treat the person who wants to argue like i’d treat someone with a loaded gun in their hand: i find a way to get myself (safely) out of the situation, and i avoid that situation in the future.
 
what this means, in a sexual-interrelationship with a woman, you have got to be ready to walk away – at the first sign.  depending upon what she does or says, a yellow card might be appropriate (as a warning).  the red card must be at the ready.
 
obviously, the yellow-card/red-card system will be exponentially easier to enact if she is not in your home.  gentlemen: once you commit, and (heaven forbid) once you cohabitate, you (in essence) trap yourself.  marriage would be the worst-case scenario trap... if your wife happened to be a master-baiter.

[ii] yellow-card/red-card theory by richard cooper: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNh-igYtl5Y&t=1s

* in my last relationship, i displayed an enormous amount of patience.  i displayed yellow card behavior (but got sucked-in to considering each situation from her perspective -- and her past).  eventually, it became obvious that (most likely) she (1) contributed to a lot of her past problems, and (2) was not going to behave as a high-value lady, probably ever.   she (event-u-all-y) pushed me to pull the red card, which, in hindsight, equated to doing me a favor.

annoyed-owner (seethes), then says curtly:

___________________________________
 
·       when a dog barks at me, i prepare to defend myself.

·       when an ignorant dog-owner says “he won’t bite” i take it with a grain of salt.  many times, i’ve responded: “maybe you know that, but i don’t know that.”

·       some neighborhood dog-owners have invisible ‘electric’ fences set-up, as if a passer-by should ‘know’ that the dog won’t stray beyond a certain point.

b118 (7.11-1.2024): i want to get propositioned

i want to get propositioned [i]
by any man alive
 
i want to feel attractive
i want to feel loved
i want to feel wanted
i don’t want push & shove

i want to feel worthy
i want to feel okay
i want to get propositioned:
every, single day
____________________ 

·       as a man, i can honestly say that some of the best moments of my life have come while being propositioned.

·       even in strip clubs (and i’m not a strip club guy), it has felt good to have woman-after-woman, approaching me with an offer.

·       when i was younger, i got propositioned a lot more than i do at age 65 (of course).
 
and… knowing that all relationships are (in some way) transactional, what if i could go somewhere, be approached (for whatever reason), transact, and get what i want while she gets what she wants?
 
what if there was a possibility that, as we both got what we wanted, we shared a mutually satisfying moment?
 
many, many, Many, Many, MANY men in conventional u.s.a. relationships are completely miserable, spend waaaaaaaaaaaay too much money, and get waaaaaaaaaaay too little appreciation.  the women in these 'relationships' are often also miserable, lonely and bored.  
 
why not invest in the transactional?

* 2 minutes ago (literally)

 "can you give me a ride?"
i know we've never met
"can you give me a ride?"
a ride you won't forget

__________________ 

• yes.  less than a 1/4 mile from my door, a lady asked me for "a ride... to the circle-k."
• she had bad teeth, a little pot-belly, and said something about her boyfriend.

my response?

"let me think about it.  i'll be right back."

translation: "no."

i tend to recoil from crazy women, nowadays.  of course (if it was sheryl crow or cindy crawford), i might have rolled the dice, but... 

* life design

my life design… and the way i want to live it 

if i could wave the magic wand:

1.      autonomy (i already have that).  i have autonomy in my career, my part-time job, and my personal life. 

2.      freedom (i already have that).  i have an amazing level of freedom.

3.      security (i already have that… until dictators take over or ASI takes over).

4.      siestas (this would probably mean retired from conventional work)… but i do this in the summer.

5.      good sex, about once or twice per week:
   a.      i already orgasm (about once per day) and believe in exercising muscles. 
   b.      …but i’d like someone to share orgasms with (intermittently)
              i.     not all of the time, but sometimes. 
              ii.     again: once or twice per week... for the full-blown sexual experience (slow, romantic, etc.). 
             1.      note: most women will want more and more of that… but i am open to meeting someone who might not.

6.      happy, easy, laughter (i already have that)… but might enjoy that more with a female partner or part-time partner.

7.      exercise: a gal who works-out with me.

8.      yoga: a yoga teacher who guides me.

9.      massage: a massage therapist who massages me.

10.   personal training: see #7

11.   family/friends: a gal who loves to meet and interacts very well with my family/friends.

12.   sleeping alone (most nights), and sleeping together… when the next morning isn’t a work morning.  i want to wake-up with you, share coffee with you, watch hummingbirds with you…)
   a.      note… there may be mornings where/when i need to write, or walk, or to be alone… so please understand that i will be back, and i will give you my full attention soon.   

13.   early to bed (after sunsets)

14.   early to rise (to watch sunrises)

15.   travel: to places where i can turn her on… and to places that i’d like to go/see.

16.   when it is ungodly hot, i'd like to go to the mountains.  when it is ungodly cold, i'd like to visit warm, sunny beaches.  when it is in the middle (and even during some of the hot/cold times), i want to be right here.

* affairs are healthy

before bashing... just read a couple of lines (this is only a theory):

affairs (in married relationships) are healthy

his-story:

• marriage is difficult, as is cohabitation.
• marriage-sex (once you add kids, jobs, in-laws, religions, etc.) is (as a rule) not as hot as pre-marriage or honeymoon sex.
• married people do have affairs.
• the people aren't the problem.  conventional u.s.a. marriage (the construct) is the problem.
• making a lifelong promise (based upon emotion & subconscious sexual vibes) is a very, very bad idea.

but how could affairs be 'healthy'?  affairs (within a marriage) can be healthy if:

• partners use the "don't ask, don't tell" system.  there is no need to share information about who, what, when, where, how or how much. 
• limit the trysts to 1 per week (max).
• only have an affair if your sexual needs are not being met in the marriage, and if your partner is unable or unwilling to facilitate meeting those needs.

here's what will happen:

• each of you will explore what your sexual needs actually are.
• both of you will (most likely) stay in better shape.
• both of you will (most likely) treat each other better.
• it won't be a catastrophe, if there is lipstick-on-the-collar.
• you won't necessarily have to endure the process of divorce.

·       just a moment ago, i (admittedly) enjoyed crushing the life out of a fruit-fly that was flying too close to my creme brulee' coffee.
 
·       truth is, the fly was just being itself (fly-ing)… until i perceived it to be pesty.
 
·       in the past, i’ve taken the lives of many, many, many other fruit flies -- by setting out the ol’ “apple cider vinegar traps” (in the kitchen).
 
·       to the local fruit-fly population, i am a Superintelligence (and an evil one, at that!).  i (the creator) provide the material for their birth, but then i kill them on the spot, when they don't serve me.
 
what will happen (to humans, being) when an Artificial Superintelligence perceives us as ‘pesty’?

* big-fish-small-pond theory

while it is beneficial to be a big-fish-in-a-small-pond, one might not want to be the biggest fish. 

strive to be in 80-90th percentile fish: confident, able, still big (just not the biggest).

why?

the #1 fish always has a few other Alphas... just waiting to become the biggest.  if you can be a friend of the biggest fish while not getting involved in the politics of territorial control, you can enjoy plenty of leftovers.

it is important to note that those 'leftovers' might actually taste better (and treat you better) than the biggest fish gets treated!

1. he is the Alpha-Alpha (with all of the responsibilities that come with that).  repeating/remaining as the #1 is difficult.

2. Alpha-Alpha has to continually watch his back-fins... which takes additional time & energy (creating dis-stress).  he also has to try to keep his harem 'happy' (a daunting task, indeed): try keeping one of them happy. :(

3. his harem (the best-looking female fishes) have waaaaaay too many options, while also swimming angry -- since the Alpha-Alpha can be (ahem) 'distant' at times.  

4. it can get lonely, at the highest levels of the food-chain.  there are far-fewer peers to chum-around with.

----------------------- 

however...

the second tier (75th-85th percentile of female fishes) won't be swimming with Alpha-Alpha, which will give you more access, more opportunities, more options and more smiles.  

you will still be an Alpha, just not the top 5%...
...and that, my fishy friends, might be the best mating position in the whole pond.

-------------------------

the fish-story lesson: strive to be better, but don't obsess with being the best.

it goes without saying, but the small beta-fish just hope (and beg) and watch the show.

go to school.  don't just believe, betas: learn how to be a bigger, better fish. 

* "that... was a pretty good day"

"now that... was a pretty good day."  

-bill murray, in "groundhog day"

today began as another morning with no alarm clock, no pain, no sickness, no kids, no debt, no break-up proceedings, and none of the stuff that the average 65+ year-old guy tends to experience as his mind wanders -- thinking of how things could be even better. 

i actually googled "where can a 50+ year-old man go to get propositioned by a woman on the beach?"

throughout my adult life, i've 'dated' multiple women (simultaneously) and, when one of them 'clicked' with me, i entered a monogamous relationship -- shutting down the top-10 poll.

when my ego isn't in a one-on-one relationship, it seems to desire one.  when it is in a relationship, it (eventually) doesn't want one.

i remember times, in the past, being propositioned (jogging, walking the beach, on the job, etc.) by women.  it felt gooooood!   

it doesn't happen much, anymore, but when it does, i will be ready to make her day... and maybe even her week, or months, etc.

in the meantime, i am grateful for the autonomy, the contemplation time, the freedom, the coffee, the hummingbirds, the fountains, the weather, and (most of all) the possibilities.

b118 (7.3-1.2024): ...and that's how bad bees die

…and that’s how bad bees die [i]
by 2b (or) not t. o. bee

that’s how bad bees sing, and
that’s how bad bees cry, so
sorry if it stings, but
that’s how bad bees die

a bee got into my office, and was buzzing-around (probably minding his own beesness).  unfortunately (for him), as[s]-i was also minding mine. :)

we know it’s made-up [i]
by itsa all madeup

we know that it’s not true
we know that it might rhyme
we know there’s no-thing new
we know it’s made-up: fine!

b118 (7.1-1.2024): why can't we just ask why?

why can’t we ask why? [i]
by ima believer

why can’t we just mass-debate, why can’t we even try?
why do cults suppress the quest, oh, why can’t we ask why?
