Matchmaker Matchmaker.....

If you haven't read, OKCupid changed their messaging system.  Now, your messages doesn't show up unless the guy has already liked your profile.  Otherwise, it shows up only on your profile... you know... if he manages to end up on your profile....

Uhhh....

I don't know lots of guys to go through there liking profiles for fun.

I sent out 10-15 messages one weekend and got no responses.  I don't know if they were read and ignored, or if they were never seen...

So what's a single girl to do?

Well hire a match maker...



Yea.... this is in my head all day now too....

So.....

There's this site Tawkify (not an endorsement.. yet).

I signed up and spent a stupid amount of money for 6 dates...

Well the dates aren't what you're paying for, but the matchmaker.

So I signed up online and then had a pre call.  I talked to an intake woman for 30ish minute last Sunday.  They're trying to get an idea of who you are and what you're looking for and if there's anything crazy that the won't be able to match you.  They've got an 85% success rate but they acknowledge that it's that way because they're picky at this stage. 

After she passed me, my application goes to a screening meeting for my area (meets 3 days a week in the bay area), and with that final approval, I got assigned a matchmaker.

She'll (and mine is a woman) video chat up to 30 guys per date and select one for me to go on a date with.  She'll handle the scheduling of the date and will call us both after to see how it went.  She'll also coach me on what I can do better, take my feedback on what would be better in the guy, and select the next date...

But before all this happens, she and I will have a 1-2 hour video call where she gets to know me and what I want.

All this vulnerability feels like extra therapy sessions.

But dear reader, this is all known...

I'm left with... what do I want.

Some of it is easy... someone I can chat with, babies aren't needed, marriages isn't needed but isn't something I'm horribly against.  SF or SJ are preferred since work and home.  I like my men like big teddy bears.  Taller than me is nice, but at 5'4", not hard.

But..... kink....

How important is the kink (and maybe the poly) part of my life?

Could I date a vanilla guy?

Could I date a vanilla swirl guy (pull my hair during sex)?

I'm kind of asking the universe but I know that the answer is inside me


I really enjoy the ability to connect with people the way I have with M/s.... but maybe there are other ways to connect that would feel ok to me.

I like playing at traditional gender roles... but only playing at them.  I wouldn't that to be real 24/7.

I do like a lot of crazy porn (do you follow my tumblr?).... but maybe that's all it needs to stay at.

I'm sure I'll be writing more on this as my first meeting with the matchmaker happens.

If I could have anything...

So my therapist asked me what my ideal relationship would look like... not that we always get what we want, but she wanted me to think of what it would look like. 


And I balked like a frightened mare. 


I got tense and sweaty. 


I couldn't speak. 


Me, the planner, the person who gets stuff done, had no idea what my ideal relationship would look like. 


"But you should be flexible," I tried to counter. We've all read the stories of the unreasonable women who state what the 3 acceptable hair cuts for their future mate. 


"We know that's not you," she countered. 


That is also true. I'm so worried about being too picky that I've dated and fucked guys I wasn't in to because that wasn't a good enough reason to not. 


I guess I'm so scared to even think about what I want because the  I'd really know what I'm missing...


So I'm on a plane for another 5 hours and with nothing better to do, you, dear reader, will get a bit of stream of (painful to pull out) thought. 


Do I want kids?


Right out with the hard questions, right? This one is actually a bit easier for me to think about. I have some dear friends (waves at those who also read my blog) who knew they wanted kids and planned their lives around that. I also have friends who have never if ever wavered from not wanting kids. 


I'm in the middle... I do t have strong feelings either way. I'd be game for kids with a partner who wanted them. I also wouldn't rule out a partner because he didn't want kids.  I'm pretty content in this area and don't feel like I've not planned. My plan currently is to wait and see. 


That was easy... which is probably why it came out first, right?


Do I want to be  married? Planning a cool party sounds fun. Being legally and financially tied to another person? I feel like I could name for you all the reasons not to do it, all the horrible things that you may have to deal with.....


But all that is the logical brain...the side of me that wants to hide and never take risks. It's hard to say it out loud (I still haven't really), but I'd like to be married. I'd like to have till death do us part. I want to promise to cherish and be cherished in front of families and friends. Yea, getting married and not having kids can be horrible on your taxes, but that's all the stuff that comes with the institution of marriage. I want the core, the love, the intertwining of lives. 


Sooooooooooo


What else?


Where does kink fit in? Mono/poly/open??


*sigh*


Why is this so hard??


Ok...... mono/poly/open....


I haven't had a primary partner since my high school/college boyfriend. We broke up in 2005, so it's been a while. The whole time we dated we were long distance (he's a year older than me and we didn't start dating till he was already in college). I've never lived with a primary partner nor had one that I saw even weekly. 


Since 2005, I've had.....1? 2? Big R relationships. They've been great but they've been set up from the very beginning as none primary. Is that what I want?


Well when I think about the previous section on marriage...it's kind of hard to say that  being a secondary partner has ever been my end goal. I enjoy the companionship and I have a lot of fun....


But I feel like I'm always holding back. It's like I have this pit of love and emotion and neediness that I keep carefully locked up since those desires and needs can't be met...


Now I don't know for sure they can't be met... I just don't even acknowledge that path for fear that they can't be met. I carve out this little piece of me that I think fits what people are offering and don't let them see anything else. 


Ok so a primary partner would make me happy. Monogamy? 


Eh


Sex is really nice


Kink is really nice. 


Time is a zero sum game. 


I guess I'd say that I probably wouldn't want a second boyfriend. I think I'd probably want the freedom to have friends with benefits situations. 


---- minor side note. Friends with benefits are awesome...at least the way I do it. I'm actually friends, good friends, with those who get benefits. I couldn't do it where it was just sex and nothing else. I'd feel too vulnerable. 


Ok so I want a primary partner who'd be ok with me having none romantic sexual relationships with others. Marriage would be a goal and kids could be on the table. 


That's scary to write down let alone say out loud. 


So I'm stomach now hurts. Not sure if I ate something that is setting me off or if I'm really uncomfortable thinking about this..... so I'll stop here...


For now.

Reading

Hi all....

It's been a while.

I've been reading again....

Between tumblr and re-reading cheesy romance novels, I've started to see what draws me in and what I seem to be craving....

I wan structure... from the outside, punishments for breaking rules, care, leadership, pain, sex....

The stories have tended towards D/s, M/s, domestic discipline, and 1950s housewives...

Could I do it all the time.... I don't know.... maybe no... maybe it just seems like what I want from the outside...

Or maybe that's the bit inside of me that wants out.....

It's ok...

... to want to rely on someone some of the time.....

I had a rough September.  3 different car issues totally nearly $1k.  Work was in flux (just a move, but still, stress), pollen count was so high I couldn't run outside/train for my 10k, move at work meant no yoga.

I got to therapy on Friday (OMG, totally worth the $20 per visit) and I was wiped out.  I felt like I'd been wound up so tight and couldn't calm down.

After outlining with a calendar all the things going on, she really got that I was exhausted.

One of the things that came up was how alone I felt.  I was able to weather the storm... I was able to deal with all the things....

But I also didn't have a choice but to deal.

I'm feeling a little financially unstable... mostly because the car stuff bit into my cushion (glad I had that cushion).

Wouldn't it be nice, my shrink said, if there was someone else's cushion that you could lean on for a while.  If someone could make you dinner if you had a rough day.  If you cooked dinner and someone else did the dishes.

None of this is stuff I *can't* do... it would just be nice to not have to do it... to be taken care of a little bit.

It makes sense with my fantasy life.  As I get more into hypnosis, dollification, and bimboification, the common thread is giving up control.... but more than just control, giving up un-directed action.

As a submissive, I really like taking care of people.  I had brunch with an ex who I'm still friends with and I still remembered he wouldn't want a straw for his drink and I set out napkins and water glasses for us... I just do that.  I like to take care of people.

But the new fetishes....  I don't do anything.  I'm blank.  I'm a canvas that someone else is writing on.

It makes sense... I need a break from doing all the things and just getting to be.

Oh yea... I blog......

Oh... hi blog!

It's been a while (months).

For more day to day smut, I do have a tumblr now.  I also have an alt tumblr for my more political rantings.

So why am I here?

'Cause sometimes I want to write to you dear readers and not the crazy people on the internet who only like me for the pictures of my boobs (not that you're not allowed to like my boobs too).

As a brief aside... I'm mostly ok right now.  I stick my head out into the world regularly, but it's soo tiring... so overwhelming....

But I am reading and following... and judging people based on what I'm reading and following....

My heart is pretty heavy sometimes :-(

But that's not why I wanted to blog today.....

There's a boy (ok I know, it's me, there's always a boy).

We've hung out at several events/munches/dinner parties and have had one solo date so far.  In total, we've probably talked, in person, for over 6 hours (maybe closer to 7).

Everything sounds great, right?

Well.... we haven't kissed....

For lack of a better understanding... I'm always shocked to not end up in bed with a guy on the first or second date or at least I'm naked and being beaten.

I guess the fear then is... omg am I just a friend?   Is this going no place?

But I'm having fun, I really am.  I gabbed for 4 hours (9:30pm - 1:30am) at a dive bar (great people watching).

And he's not been feeling well recently but still wanted to hang out... so he's making an effort.

Did I mention I'm having fun?

Maybe... just maybe... this is what dating is....

Nearly all of my boyfriends were friends first... we didn't have to do this stage, I'd known them for years.  Is this how this is supposed to go?

We've hugged... I really like hugging him....

And, from the outside, I'm pretty sure he likes me.  We were hanging at a munch (chatted for at least 3 hours that night) and the next day a friend who was not in the know asked me about the guy who was so obviously into me...

Soooooooooooooo

Yea... I should probably just go to sleep now and stop worrying.... but I bet some of my friends are about to have their mid-night wake ups and will distract me for a bit....

I'm just so not used to.... initiating?  I don't know if that's the right word...

A guy is interested and if I'm not opposed, I follow his lead.... I don't know how to open the door widely enough that they a) see that it's open and b) walk through it....

Damn using my words is scary and makes me vulnerable.....


Ahhhhhhhhh

Dating as Job Hunting

We had a great speaker from Paradigm IQ come to work and speak about unconscious bias.

One of the things she said was that, on average, a woman will only apply to a job if she meets 100% of the qualifications but a man will apply if he meets 60% of the qualifications.

All of a sudden, while I flip through OKC, this fact came back to me.

I should reach out to guys who I might not match 100%.... they'll message me if they think they meet 60% of what I say.... and yea, it's good to list lots of "requirements" (as someone who dates men).  The more I list, the more things they'll need to match to hit 60%.....

The Ringmaster

I'm sitting here about 24 hours after the start of yesterday's date and the urge to get it out of my head and on to paper(?) has hit me (I was that kid who actually kept a paper diary back in the day).

A dear friend gives many of her play partner nick names in her blog. As I thought about yesterday's date both before and after, I found myself referring to him as the ringmaster.... So it's officially stuck. 

I had Friday off of work and slept in, poked my bite marks from wet munch, and started primping. The ringmaster and I had talked a little about doll makeup so I spent a good amount of time on YouTube and had a look to replicate. While the makeup itself isn't 100% needed, I've found that it's really transformative for me. Some see makeup as the defenses they put on every day. For me, it's much more of a peeling off of layers. I rarely, if ever wear makeup to work. No makeup Shelly is the boss lady... One of the guys.... Kind of lacking of a specific gender. Makeup Shelly is the me inside, the one who likes makeup and shoes and being girly and being submissive. It's not a more authentic me because I've done work on integrating all parts of me... It's just me without many of the outer, protective layers. 

With my dog sitting and heading to see him in SF, I decided to transit at least part way. I drove to Millbrae and then took BART to his office. I realized I'd never done transit in full makeup and was worried that my normal "don't fuck with me" wouldn't work, but it did. I got off and walked to blocks to his office and he met me outside....

We walked into his office, the door closed, he took my bag, helped me out of my sweater, sat me in a chair, and fucked my face till he came down my throat. 

Yes, it was that hot. 

We cleaned up (a bit of mascara smudges on me and my foundation on his pants) and caught an uber pool to his place. We had another passenger as well as the driver so we talked randomly about SF construction and the new train... While he texted me that I was a good girl for sucking his cock. 

Also hot, right?

We get to his place and end up in his room after waving at his roommate. He sat and asked me to remove his socks. I don't know why, but those little acts of service, the opportunity to be helpful, drops me into a really pleasant service head space pretty quickly. I did that and he asked me to suck on his toes. In hindsight, I don't think I've ever done that, but in the moment, that was just what I was going to do. There was no hesitation, no thoughts, just a desire to serve. 

It was now time for more cock sucking. This time it was a mixture of me doing work and being a hole to be fucked. I gagged pretty badly twice but just kept going till I was rewarded for my hard work. 

Afterward, something wasn't right. It wasn't bad, I wasn't in sub space, but I just was... Gone. The Ringmaster saw it immediately and asked if I could talk (yay I remembered to talk about going non verbal early enough) and I said yes, but then couldn't articulate what was going on. He pulled me off the floor next to him and held me (and gave some sexy nipple pain) and told me that I worked really hard and was a good girl. I was slowly able to come back. 

Ok, I've forgotten something so I'm going backwards. We had spoken about humiliation and I had said that I've struggled with humiliation around things like body size/shape and intelligence, the things that I've had issues accepting in general in my life. When we were in his office he said to me "You know, you're my smart girl, but you're also my dumb cunt too."

Damn, that was hot. It didn't feel like a dumb person. I didn't feel less. I was daddy's smart girl but he wanted to face fuck his dumb cunt too. 

Man that was hot. 

I remembered that cause while I was coming down it came up again and it made me smile that I could be what Daddy wanted. 

I was such a good girl that I had earned a reward. I wasn't going to be allowed to cum, but I could make a suggestion for my reward. I said I wanted to make out. He said, "you mean kiss?" and we made out for a bit before it was time for the bondage. 

Nipple clamps (wait those went on earlier) ankles together, wrists together in front of me, wrists and ankles loosely connected. 

Ugh I'm out of order again. Before the bondage I was given a large butt plug to insert. I struggled. He enjoyed my struggle. I finally got it in but my eyes were bigger than my asshole and it hurt a lot. I probably would have tried to adjust to it, to keep it in, but the Ringmaster saw what was going on and me being in that level of pain/discomfort wasn't in his plans. We abandoned it. 

So I'm tied up and handed a cordless hitachi. I'm allowed to masturbate, to edge, to watch the porn on the tv (all aggressive face fucking porn), read the book about coming out as porn stars, or text him. I couldn't  cum or use my phone for anything else. He was going to check on my on occasion but was hosting a game night in the living room. I was just a friend taking a nap so I couldn't make any noise.

I didn't end up reading. I fell asleep a couple of times. I watched all the porn on a loop. I masturbated most of the time. I edged at least 5 times. He'd come check on me. He cuddled and watched a porn with me. He'd come in and turn up the speed on the hitachi. He'd come in, smack me, and have me suck his cock more. 

We did this for 3 hours... I think. I then got dressed, sat and watched the game night for a bit, caught a lyft to Bart, and went home. I had permission to finally cum when I got home....but didn't. 

All in all....OMG I had an amazing time. I really feel like he gets me. When he left me, he made sure i could text him and put the safety shears, my snacks, and my water within my reach. I felt safe and cared for. 

Right before he left the first time he asked how i was doing and I was like I'm good. He remarked how talkative and nervous I was over coffee at Wicked Grounds but now I was so quiet with nothing to say. "I have nothing to be nervous about now," I said with all clarity. He seemed to chuckle since at the time I was bound in his bedroom. 

But I meant it. I'm no good at dating. I get nervous. I'm worried that the guy won't like me. I knew he liked playing with me. I knew that if it was too much I had a safe word. There was nothing to be nervous about. I felt cherished. The nerves around a kink scene are no where near as bad as the nerves around a coffee date. 

So I'm back in SJ. I texted when I got to my car in Millbrae and, at his request, when I was home. I couldn't sleep and I couldn't blog. I was up till nearly 3am. Today has been pretty chill and relaxing. I can't say I won't blog more (there's some doll stuff that wants to come out), but here's the end of this post...

Omg the Ringmaster wants to read this.  Well here goes some transparency. That's good, right? Sharing my blog is more nerve racking than be tied up and hurt. It's access to me, not just my body. 

But I actually want to share with him (and the rest of you dear readers).

Relationship Formats...

I can't promise this makes sense.... I'm just trying to get things out of my brain.....

What types of relationship formats do I want and which ones work for me?

I don't really know.... but hence, I'll ramble a bit to see what comes out.

I read a lot of Domestic Discipline porn.  Would that work for me?  I like parts of it, but I don't think it's me in general.  I don't think I could do it *all* the time, but I do like parts of it.

With that in mind, I don't think a 24/7 relationship is what I want either.  I'd like to have certain bits of D/s that are always around (a collar, a couple of small protocols), but I don't think I could keep a submissive mindset 24/7.

Do I want a Daddy Dominant?  I like that dynamic a little bit, but I'm not a little... but the care-taking part of that is really attractive to me.  I like being able to lean a bit on someone on occasion... to take a load off.

On the flip side, I really have been thinking about my like of pain.  There's definitely a level of pain that I like just for pain's sake... but I also want to suffer... I want to go beyond that level because someone else wants to enjoy my suffering.

I think that's all that wants to come out of my brain tonight.... but we'll see if more comes out tomorrow.

Partner Traits

After a full year + of working on me with my therapist, it's time to think about dating.

I feel like I'm in a really good space and what I want is starting to take shape.

I was always afraid of being too picky.  I thought if a guy was interested in me, that meant I needed to hold onto them and be whatever they want so that I didn't have to be alone...

You know, I don't mind being alone.  In fact, it's important to me to have my freedom and my own space.

So I've started putting together what I want in a partner.

1. I want someone who's self aware and working on themselves.

He's got to be moving in a direction, not sitting still, not resting on some accomplishment, but working to improve himself.

2. I want someone who's independent.

I do better with people who don't need me all of the time.  I work long hours and have interests that he doesn't have to match.  I'm not saying I only want a booty call.  I'm saying it wouldn't be a good fit if he needed me 24/7/365 next to him.

So far, these are the only two things that come up....

But then, in my head, I think about my kink desires.  How do these two traits mix with my submissiveness?  Am I asking for too much?

And then, tonight, I read Mollena's journal post.

And finding what's right is more important than it happening on my timeline.

Emotional Growth Spurt....

I guess I wasn’t meant to go to work today… I was meant to stay home and think…

At about 1pm, we started smelling smoke in the office so everyone evacuated.  Well, my office, the entirety of the 4th floor, evacuated.

Outside our office manager gets an email from the building… They’re working on the HVAC and we *may* smell smoke….

After airing out the office, we all returned… and 30 minutes later, that lovely mix of overheated saw and burning metal/wire returned.

So I decided to just go home….

As I sit here on the train, though, I’m really struck… really trying to wrap my brain around what’s going on in my life.

Little bits are starting to make sense…. I’m in an emotional growth spurt.  That normal emotional covering just doesn’t fit well. I’m afraid I’ll lash out… afraid that someone will take my actions as something about then and not 100% about me…

And “me” is feeling really fragile…

This Sunday is a party that I’ve been going to for years.

And I’m not going….

‘Cause it’s not me anymore.

There are two things I like…. 

Crazy intones emotional connection and play….

Reckless lack of emotional connection with objectification and horrible treatment.

I’m finding that stuff in the middle is upsetting me more than letting me feel that I at least got something….

I’ve always loved each hostage party I’ve gone to… but as I sit her and look back.. at every party… I was having less fun than everyone else.

I look back and after the first big scene, I tend to take a break… and never rejoin the fray…

Why is that?

It’s cause it wasn’t enough…

It’s cause people were too nice and kept checking in with me.

It’s because I wasn’t actually scared.

It’s because I could still breath around the cock in my throat.

It’s because there was no knife against my throat that would draw a trickle of blood if I struggled too much….

It just wasn’t enough…..

But is that what I want all the time?  Of course not….

But when I don’t want that, I want to knee at Sir’s feet… and be pet.  To be pushed just across the line where my limits sit in some small way that’s harder for me than anyone but he knows….

The middle ground just doesn’t do it for me right now…. and I’m in a funk about it.  Am I really going to do nothing until I can get everything?

And then I look back… at all the times I did something because it was better than nothing…

And in the end.. how miserable I was because of it……

What do I want??

What do I want....

What *do* I want.........

They say you can't go after what you want until you know what it is... so sometimes it's worth it to sit and really think about wants, needs, and desires.

I'm pretty sure that what I'm about to write about is not a need.  I'd like to have all of these things, but the world won't end if I don't get them.  I'm pretty self sufficient and I like that about me.

So.., we get to wants.....

A friend posted a link to a great article on FetLife, and it's got me thinking (it's quick, take a look.  I'm going to write as if you read it).

It really spoke to me... in certain ways.

At 31, I've never lived with a romantic partner.  I've never done more than a couple of days away with one.  I really like that I like living alone.

Does it mean that I don't want a partner, no, just that I don't want a partner that needs me to be attached to their hip 24/7.

But,it doesn't mean that I only want to be involved in secondary relationships.

I know people try and I don't mean this in a bad way....

But being second all the time fucking sucks.

It's not something I say, because I know what I'm getting into when I sign up for that kind of relationship...

But I'm getting less and less willing to walk into those types of dynamics.

Whether you're married or just married to your job/kids/xbox, I'm only going to be interested if you actually have the time and energy to put into me.  The desires I have, especially the kink ones, may not require constant attention, but they do require a depth of commitment and connection, and that's really all I want these days.

I think I could get some pick up play... but I don't know if I want it.

I want to hurt... but I want to hurt to please someone who wants to hurt me... and so I need to please them.

If I don't want to please you, I find that I have little to no pain tolerance right now, that I can't hit sub space from the pain I do get, and that I'm really just annoyed with everything you do.

So what is it that I want?

I was thinking a long distance, D/s relationship sounds perfect: regular texts/calls, quarterly in person visits, some every day rituals and then a higher level of ritual to go into when in person.

Does it have to look like that?  Nah, I'm open...

But I feel like that is about the level I need.  I don't need to see you every day.  I don't know if I'd want to see you more than once a week.

But I need (hmmm is it a need?) a regular connection... something to keep things going even if it's small...

It feels like I'm looking for a lot... but that's ok... I think I'd rather have nothing than something that's only a close approximation of what I want.

Plan of attack

I'm hoping if I write it all down, I'll get it out of my head and be able to sleep (eventually).

So I think I'm going to drop the $200 to get the crazy fancy HSV Western Blot Serology test.  It's considered the gold standard of all HSV tests.  The only place that does it is at the University of Washington so you have to jump the hoops to get your sample sent there for testing.

Step 1 - Call University of Washington

Step 2 - Email doctor that I want to get this done and get her to fill out the requisition (I don't anticipate this being hard).

Step 3 - Find a lab.  This could be tricky.  The lab needs to either consent to sending the sample off to the University of Washington over night, packed in ice, or they need to release the sample back to me so that I can do it.  The internet tells me that the big labs won't do it so either PAMF will say yes or I've gotta keep calling around.

Step 4 - Pay for it.  Money is the easy part.

Step 5 - Wait

Step 6 - Profit... wait no, wrong type of plan.

Home

I nearly cried on the train on the way to the airport.

It was Sunday afternoon.  I was up till nearly 5am local time working.  I forgot me anti-depressants and even though it was after 2pm, I hadn't had any food yet.

And I missed my mommy.

It was a whirlwind visit.  I hadn't been home since Christmas.  I saw my high school friends, my dad's family, my mom's family, and my brother and his girlfriend.

I spent a day with my sister and helped her prep for her new puppy.

I feel like I'm missing out.

I've lived in CA for 9 years this month.  I moved out for grad school and just never went back east.

I have a decent job that pays me well and a good group of friends.

But that's all that I've got out here.  If I look at my family (closer than second cousin), after me, the furthest west person are in DC (it is further west than Boston).  Family is really important to me.  I talk to my mom nearly every day (6 out of 7 I'd guess).

So what do I do?

I know my depression is acting up (yay, we might up my meds again) and I'm hoping I'm ovulating...

But maybe I have to start examining what a move back to the east coast would look like...

He's back....

Not often that I don't cross post to fetlife, but this one won't get cross listed.

I need to vent and I don't need the drama that lives on that site.

So the lovely gentleman who has caused all of the STI drama in my life..... he's starting to go to events.

When I saw him, he was curious, but didn't do anything public.

Now he's at events.  The last 2 I went to he showed up at.

And I want to punch and/or castrate him.

He's hot, and white, and skinny....

And has a new girl on his arm every time I see him.

Me... I've always been single when I've run into him.

When I'm strong, it's an annoyance... I'm just apt to glare at him and go on with my night.

Now, as I struggle with feeling wanted... I worry it would crush me.

I don't think he's on fetlife.  He's not RSVPing to events so it's not like I have any warning in advanced.

I don't want to "let him win," but I probably won't be out to events for a while, especially the ones where I've already seen him.

It's self care....

And... I really don't think he's that awful... I really think, as I look at things, that he was just being a dumb boy.  I know the other girl.  I *KNOW* she said she has HSV 2 orally...

But the internet is full of things that says HSV 2? use condoms for vaginal sex...

The medical community hasn't caught up with the way people have sex.  There aren't any papers on oral transmission of HSV 2.  I think we're only like 10-15 years from realizing that you can get 2 orally and 1 genitally.

So while I have these emotional responses to him, I don't think he was being vicious...

But he also never apologized....

Yes, he doesn't have HSV 2 (he sent me test results), but he already has HSV 1...

Which means he could have been a carrier of the virus, passed it to me, but it never took hold in his system because of the HSV 1 antibodies he already carried...

*sigh*

I can't wait for therapy next Friday... I've got a lot to unpack I think...

Blood Work....

 11/7/08 
0.69

3/25/09
0.57

3/21/13
1.54

9/7/13
0.75

1/2/14
<0.90

7/21/14
<0.90

7/28/15
2.26

Can you tell what this blood work says?

It looks kind of weird, doesn't it....

It's really low.... and then it's kind of middle high maybe?

Well let me give you some context...

<0.90 NEGATIVE0.90-1.10 EQUIVOCAL>1.10 POSITIVE


So the test makes more sense now, right?

Well what if I told you that this was testing for a disease you can never get rid of?

Confused yet?

Well these results, dear reader, are all of the HSV 2 IGG Specific blood results.

You'll remember when I got the first positive test results and then again when I thought I was in the clear again.

And so we're back into the crisis mode again... well maybe not crisis.... just massive confusion.

Worse case scenario, yup, I've got HSV 2.

Most likely scenario... we'll just never know...

Maybe it's in my blood?  Maybe my body has been exposed.

But if I never end up with an outbreak that they can test and do a culture on (the best test), the medical community just says "tell people and use condoms."

Ok.. well I already use condoms for vaginal intercourse... always have....

So......

Where's the infection site?

What do I do next?

Condoms for oral aren't fun for me, but I'd do them (damn that reservoir tip).

My doctor has sent my results off to an infectious disease specialist 'cause she's confused by them as well....

But she things I should live my life as if it's positive...

*sigh*

I'm not sure what to do now...

I saw that smile

I looked good. I mean I thought I looked good. 

I'd seen some appreciative glances too so I was pretty sure I looked good. 

Then he got in the elevator. 

And I knew I looked good. 

It was reflected in his eyes. The once over, the gaze that went from head to toe  was intoxicating. 

But I knew who he was. 

And I knew I was his type. 

We were going to the same event. The elevator dinged. He smiled and was gone. 

My mind flirted with the interaction. It's funny how appreciation like that, at its base level, stays with you. 

I walked into the room and had been forgotten. This was expected. He already had someone like me. I knew her and the one she replaced. I waved and continued my evening. 

I heard later that they ended, like the one before her and probably the one before her. 

I'm sure there'd be a new one soon... That look is dangerous. It's enticing and exhilarating. 

But it doesn't work on me anymore.

I'm so not surprised....

When you look at the "top" things.. I come up at predator...

When I do top... I do get that evil gleam in my eye... and it is mostly physical stuff (kicking/punching/etc).

It's interesting to see the bondage stuff creeping higher on the list... that's totally something my mind has been thinking about recently....

I'm pretty convinced that I'm not a slave... I'm really not... and that's ok too...

I'm going to a rope thing......

.... and I'm crazy nervous.

Well I'm going as long as tomorrow's emergency dentist appointment doesn't leave me in too much pain....

A friend is running the event (FetLife Link) and I've been meaning to go for months...

And I'm scared...

Maybe it's nerve...

Maybe it's just out right fear....

In case you didn't know, dear reader.... I'm not skinny.

I'm obese... morbidly so according to some calculations....

I'm not supposed to do rope...

Well.... that's what's in my head.

I'm not saying it's real or not.  I'm just saying that it feels like fact in my head.

It feels like even more than fact.. it feels like TRUTH in my brain.... that I'm just setting myself up to be laughed at...

Do you watch Game of Thrones?  In last night's episode Brienne of Tarth recalls a painful experience where she was laughed at... and was saved by the kindness of one person.

It feels like I'm just opening myself up to ridicule....

But... I'm gonna go.... and suck it in... and maybe it won't be so bad.....
