Whats wrong with me, let me count the ways, guy goes deep

guyMystique — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 23:13:59 +0000

I was talking with my girlfriend last night. Laying on the couch and falling asleep while holding the phone. End of a long day. She was on the train heading home after class. The conversation slid around and ended up delving into “the bad day she had” and how she just finished a “meditation about [...]

Art, Beauty, or Obsession. A floating lipstick kiss

guyMystique — Sun, 08 Apr 2012 02:56:36 +0000

A floating lipstick kiss left in her wake and caught in time. A simple moment for romance… As guys, are we nuts? Is the mere suggestion of a woman in an intimate moment enough to cause us to pause in thought? Yet for her, I am sure this was a much smaller ‘moment in passing’ [...]

Adrift on the Island of Myself I wait for Terra Firma of the mind

guyMystique — Sat, 25 Feb 2012 18:18:16 +0000

From floating in a plasma of seemingly endless stream of thoughts where my toes and fingers have no grasp I come awake and crawl upward gasping for another day of “air”… Repeat daily.

Do Tell Original game sounds like a great game for lovers and friends. A lot of people just need a little nudge to open up to more meaningful conversations. I grew up with a mom that was a therapist. If she thought I was upset about something, she’d want me to hit pillows with a [...]

Being the guy in the relationship and I’m a woman

lunalma — Sat, 11 Dec 2010 20:14:50 +0000

I am responding to the other post: “I know now what being the guy in the relationship means“. That is “me being a female fix-it type”. When I was in my twenties, I was dating a guy who was Mr. Fix-it. One time my vacuum cleaner broke. I began to take it apart to try [...]

Memories of elementary school | Social torture and fitting in

lunalma — Sat, 11 Dec 2010 04:33:15 +0000

I wonder if any kid has happy memories of elementary school. It seemed like pure social torture to me, and many failed attempts to figure out how to “fit in.” Who were the kids that “fit”, and why? And then why did all the rest of us scramble about, trying to get their approval and [...]

A boys first grade socialization | the lonely walk to school

guyMystique — Wed, 06 Oct 2010 03:26:20 +0000

I remember my first socialization with other boys from other neighborhoods, public school – first grade. It was my first organized social life, everyone thrown together in one building and then grouped by grade. Social contact was miles between first and fourth graders at this school, yet back home in our own neighborhood we all [...]

What was I thinking?

guyMystique — Sat, 03 Jul 2010 22:16:27 +0000

"...Probably nothing. At least until you heard “What were You thinking!” from your mate. At that point you actually started to think …not about ‘what were you thinking’, but about what your answer to this question is. It doesn’t sound good. Just what did you do? Probably something you’ve done before a hundred times..."
