Hi Debbie101 Florida Keys!

I did it! Unfortunately, turns out they're sailing away as we speak and have no plans to return. They're home base is a bit too far for me, so that's that. Proud of myself for being honest and brave. Was an easy let down because it was nothing personal.

Interestingly, she just showed up as a match for me on okcupid and we liked each other and I started a conversation there. I think this might give me an opening to tell her I'm interested. For some reason this feels more organic to me than reaching out to her on facebook. Like maybe we would...

A man contacted me on OKC. He seemed interesting. He said he and his wife "often date together." She was too young to show up in my matches, so I never read her profile, but did see a pic of her in his profile. I told him I thought his wife was very pretty. First thing I did was ask him what...

Like Ponytail, my lover has mental illness. Hell yes, I take breaks when it gets overwhelming. My people know that if they ask about her and I say "We're off again," it means we're not seeing each other or talking much. This can last a few days or a couple weeks. I've asked for breaks...

I've had similar problems with Hal. He can get hard, with or without viagra, but can only come from his own hand. I hated it the first time we dated, it really made me feel less than sexy that he'd never "finish" on or in me. We've recently started dating again, and it's one of the things that...

I love my much-younger lesbian lover passionately, but she's exhausting. I know I'm the mommy to her abused inner child, and sometimes I'm the child to her inner daddy. She demands so much of my energy and focus--she gives it back, of course, but things get so fucking intense between us. When...

My relationship with Mel remains challenging as fuck. We have such an intense, almost psychic connection, I'm still absolutely dumbstruck by her physical beauty, and the sex is still the best I've ever had. But her bipolar disorder/ADHD is disruptive to say the least. After a really bad episode...

This seems to be changing, at least in my area and among us 40-somethings. Lots of people using Tinder to make real connections. One of my friends is about to marry her Tinder guy. I'm also seeing more open relationships on there, but it's still pretty exclusively heterosexual. Some of my...

I've been dating for 5 years now, here's my "system." I've done pretty well with it, have found everything from fuckbuddies to serious relationships using online dating. I end up rejecting or "friend-zoning" most of the people I talk to and even two-thirds of the ones you get around to meeting...

I've been drinking and doing drugs for about 25 years now. In my experience, some people can party hard but know their limits and manage to have successful careers, relationships, families, and maintain their health. But, especially as one gets older, excess causes serious problems. I've seen my...

I'm guessing you'll have a hard time finding women willing to do this. I, for one, would have no desire to sleep with a man solely to stroke the ego of his wife who wants to "share" his talents with the world. Most mature, self-actualized women are not interested in being anyone's marital aid or...

It might be a kindness on your part to let her go. You don't desire her sexually, and she wants a sexual relationship with you. You don't want to spend time in her home or be a part of her family of pets, and she wants you to do that. I suspect she'll eventually come to this conclusion on her...

Haha exactly! I grew up in New England then lived in Manhattan 12 years. Now I'm in Key West, lots of us here. KW is wicked LGBT friendly and liberal, but wander just 100 miles North, and it all goes to hell.

Melinda and I took a week and a half apart while she went out of town. I think we were both looking forward to a break from being a "couple." But after several days and nights alone, I had a meltdown induced by holiday stress, loneliness, and financial struggle. Every night when Mel called me...

I was smooching on my girlfriend outside a bar in a very small town, we were traveling on xmas. A fairly attractive guy my age came out, saw us, and starting talking to us. Already, I was shocked by the fact that a man would interrupt two women kissing. I can't imagine he would have done so had...

@FallenAngelina I've been following the Hamilton Electors facebook page. It's run by a pair of Republican electors. They're a bit of a mess though. They haven't officially named a Republican replacement (and time's a-wasting.) They asked early on that people not "harass" other electors by...

The Hamilton electors seem to be leaning towards Gov. John Kasich. He's still wayyyyy to far right for most Americans, but he's a step up.

I feel like the press trying to be "balanced" is part of the problem. Instead of shouting, "This man is nuts! Get him away from the White House!" they are trying to make this all seem somewhat normal. They have to lean so far to the right to remain unbiased, they end up normalizing insanity.

For better or for worse, my break up with Mel didn't stick. Once she started taking her meds properly and her sweet, vulnerable, real personality came back, I fell in love with her again. I don't delude myself that she will never slip again, but she's a fighter, and I believe she'd slay dragons...
