h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

thats the reason for the name yes GB? I'm sending a huge warmfelt hug to you at the moment...

Well, I've sat here, read all those postings from the start. First I'd like to apologise to DD for being his number 8, and hope he didnt mean his 'hate to think its female number 6' comment too much (sorry hon. cant help being born female!) :x

I lost my virginity just before the easter holidays to Simon, age 19. After spending 6 months with a man it didnt quite ever seem to happen with, I was in a way relieved when it did happen.

We'd known each other a week, and although we'd shared the same bed (even the first day we met we went back to my place and he slept by my side), we hadnt slept together. We went out for the evening, getting rather drunk, just as we always seemed to do. We got into bed as normal, but then he looked at me and said outright 'theres a condom in my wallet'. I looked at him, and I have to say i was very frightened. The fear of the pain, of knowing that he wasnt the man for me, and that I should wait...

But it happened. I cant remember too much about it, except there wasnt anywhere near as much pain as I'd been expecting. Afterwards I did wish that I'd waited. And till this day I still do. There is a certain something about losing your virginity to someone knowing that you really do love them deeply.

Since then I've slept with 3 other men, two of which were one night stands. I have to be honest, not every time I've had sex I've used a condom, although the one-nighters did have that protection. The latest of the 4 is Stephen, my fiancé. I honestly dont want to sleep with another man again, and he has shown me (and allowed me to experience) many things that 'experienced' men didnt quite seem to get. I'm very lucky to have him. (hopes he doesnt kill me for posting this!)

That IS uncanny indeed, LOL!

Thanks, FC!
*hugs you back*

*gulp*

Wow!!! Don't know quite what to say.

I'm so in love and to have that written here....

*blushes*

Actually I do know what to say.

I've slept with three people 2 male 1 female. One of them was a one night stand, the first guy was 2 years of unmitigated disastor. I'm a very tactile person as my fiancée can vouch, and to have no pubilc diplay of affection with him really beat me up.

Now I've found the person I've been looking for, for so long. I can hold her indefinately and have learnt so much in such a short time with her. I'll never let her go, or let her down and I love every aspect of what we have together.

Whatever comes in the future I know I'll be sharing it with her, waking up each morning in the same way, holding her, smelling her and hearing her voice. No one has ever flet as much part of me as Lyndsey does and that is the most important thing, everything we do together is based on love and no one can ever tear that down.

*sighs and bursts into tears*

A friend of mine recently celebrated her 25th wedding anniversary. She and her husband still hold hands, go for long walks and bike rides, say their morning prayers (they're Buddhists) together, and make love every day. I only hope someday I can experience a love like that.

It disturbs when this thread pops up on my Space; it's as though it's some kind of cruel reminder!

Gee - this is very interesting. I gather that losing your virginity brings frustration from those who haven't got there yet and regret or some other un-happy emotion from those who have... Maybe a majority of the people who thought it was great just haven't posted. Either it's a defining moment or we're all making too much of it.

Woah there Trillian's Child

I don't intend to imply that I've lost any passion. It's right over there - I can see it (Hey passion - what's up?***)... It just needs a little direction. I think that cynicism thing can be overcome too - one small happy event at a time. Finding H2G2 for instance and not having the server crash (knock on wood) when I post something.

As far as jumping in the Thames goes : what's the water like this time of year? Is it still mostly H2O? Will body parts fall off if I go wading into it? Is that the river they show in the title sequence of "Eastenders"?

**passion replied : "leave me alone, I'm sleeping". Oh, that sounds good right about now - I think I'll join it (it's 10:20 pm in the "true" birthplace of powered flight).

Non Juan, in your view, is the true birthplace of powered flight Kitty Hawk or somewhere else?

Any objections dear?? I just thought I would be shure befir I pose anything..maby I am being stupid but hay it is nothing new

Looks like I've got a lot to learn. Sounds like hard work, too.

"Yo Galaxy Babe! I've got 4 too, all boys. I got out of my second marriage in 1985 and I won the divorce in 1998, cost me a fortune. Since 1985 I have enjoyed an exciting and varied sex life without too many complications. The last time I split up with Princess Toy she said the very thing that you mentioned as she went through the door



That made me sit up and think".

*A big TGIF hug for AGB*

"I almost forgot, the Halloween Party has started, and vigins may find someone of interest there. For the ones who have lost passion, I think Marie-Rae is boiling up a vat of it right now, come on dude's get your asses over to http://www.h2g2.com/F52920?thread=84645&post=677678 and don't forget your costumes.":-):-)

Say whatever you want to St.Bob.
You don't need my permission, but thanks for asking

I have said it before but feel the urge (well, necessity really) to say it again: First times are only first times. And like your first step you are not expected to be very good at it. If you really enjoyed it - well, count your blessings, why don't you?

I am not telling people what to feel and what to think. But for your own sake: Put things in their right perspective. You may think that your problems are the worst in the universe ever. But you don't have to think long (about other peoples problems) before you realize that they are not (yeah, you knew that already, didn't you?). This goes for most of us. I am aware that there are some people in here who have suffered some really bad times. My sympathy to them - AND to the rest of you!

So there! Had to say that. Sorry...

You're right, Pierce.
I think the only people I've ever met with NO problems are babies, and they just can't tell us them, that's why they yell a lot!

I was sure you would understand! That's why it was not meant for you

Even if it wasn't meant for me, it was jolly good advice and I do follow it now and again.

losing my virginiry was a neat experience. it was with someone i cared (and still do) for deeply, even though we dont have a sexual relationship anymore. he lives on the east coast united states, i on the west. its been 11 years since the first time we had sex. we dated for 1 and 1/2 years until his liking for white powder took over. we split up, he is clean now, and we are good friends. he has come to visit me on the west.

i have had other satisfying sexual relations with a few others but one never forgets that first one.
