    I just got back from shopping with my mom and am now trying out my new account on her netbook whilst wearing my brother's brand new soccer jacket :D

    I'm legitimately in love with this thing, I'm going to be borrowing it so much lol

    That is an interesting pen.

    Right now I am very conflicted. I have spent three wonderful evening with a man who is gentle and kind, but inexperienced and nervous. There are still scars from when my last relationship ended, and I've been very guarded of my body. But I wanted to do something to ensure I was safe, and I do feel safe with him. I'm caught between so many things that I want, what he wants, and what we're both ready to do.

    If I fall asleep, someone just hit me or something. 4 hours' sleep isn't good when I have just had remedies and have Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence in 30 minutes. For 2 hours.

    Hello everyone! =D

    Rei, I say keep going out with this man. I'd say more, but I don't even have a girlfriend yet and I don't want to ruin your relationship. :3

    Of course I will. What I don't know is what I should do while I go out with him.

    Good morning all. Happy Monday.

    Enjoy his company, have a good time, do whatever you feel comfortable doing while you are with him. Don't overthink it or you will drive yourself crazy. If there is an issue from either of you about what you are or are not comfortable with...before persuing any activity that might be an issue...talk about why or how it is making your nervous or cautious. Don't do anything you can't talk about.

    I'm more worried about making him uncomfortable. I believe you need three things when it comes to sex: the ability to handle the consequences, which I am, a commitment, which I have, and the knowlege that there is more to the relationship than sex (unless that's all both parties want), which I think we have. But he's 21 and has never had a girlfriend, so he doesn't know what he can handle.

    Then take it one step at a time. Make sure he knows that you are ok with his lack of experience and you make no judgments. Make sure he knows that he can talk to you and let you know if he ever gets uncomfortable. Take time and enjoy every step along the way.

    I'm doing swell.

    My day is nearly over! =D

    And I just had a hilarious picture in my head: An old man keeps a pet sheep named Eerbie as his companion. Oh, what wonders will my brain unleash next? XD

    Why, thank you.

    A national day of celebrating nothing of importance is always good :D

    Um, perhaps it celebrates the founding of Australia? That's how I interpret it.
