Check out his desk. Is it filled with toys? Or you could casually ask what type of hockey he enjoys.

Re: Return of Confessions
I know this shit ain’t for the vast majority of people and I get it. But if you’re thinking about it, DO IT. I can’t recommend it enough. Watching a guy treating your wife as sexy as you do is one of the most amazing things you’ll experience.

Re: Return of Confessions
I'd much rather have a guy come over to my house and fix some shit, clean the house, clean out the attic and kids' closets, etc.
Totally Kafkaesque
Re: Return of Confessions
Since I have no one else to share with, I thought I'd type an update for my own cathartic reasons. The guy we met first, we met three times. All were awesome. Then in the middle of the day the day after the last time, he completely ghosted us. It's weird. I mean, it went from a text saying he wished he was in her car with her to her sending him a snapchat that to this day he hasn't read. We really think he might be dead. So a literal ghosting.
She was upset about this which was the not good part I alluded to in another thread. However, several weeks later, we met up with another guy that was not nearly as fun as the first guy, but we've chatted with a couple others and that is fun enough in an of itself. It's honestly been interesting to see what different people are out there for different reasons. I'm sure we'll meet with someone again (probably the 23 year-old Aggie cause the wife deserves a boytoy), but if we don't it's fine.
This morning, my wife told me I could have a girl toy if I wanted one. I said I'm not interested, but asked why she said that. It was basically because it's only fair and there are things I might want to do that my wife's not into and might not ever be into (i.e. butt stuff). My initial reaction was that it's not a thing I've wanted at all. This is more for her pleasure and quite honestly, at 41, I don't really have the energy for more than one girl.
After that, I get a message from a girl I've known for years from the Rockets message board I've been a member of forever. We haven't hung out since 2015 playoffs and she wanted to make sure we catch a game or two these playoffs, and she's happy to travel to the burbs carrying a bowl with my name on it. Fast forward 45 minutes and now we're having drinks tonight.

Re: Return of Confessions
Ugh, it sounds just like the worst parts of dating all over again, and who has time for that shit? Sounds horrible.

Re: Return of Confessions
Yeah, that part sucked. We really don't know what happened, but overall it's actually all a lot of fun. We've gotten to know some people even if it didn't end up in us meeting. Shit, one of the guys told me his favorite band was Lucero and while the wife had no interest, we'll probably grab a beer next time they're in town.The Sybian wrote: ↑Wed Apr 11, 2018 12:50 pmUgh, it sounds just like the worst parts of dating all over again, and who has time for that shit?

Seriously, the timing was weird. The day after the last time, he was across the street from my office in a training. At 11:00am, she came to get me for lunch and sent him a text saying she was across the street. He responded saying "I wish I could slip out of this meeting and slip something in you." She sent him a snap 30 minutes later that's never been read and we haven't heard from him again.

Re: Return of Confessions
So now it's a couple we've met. We've been chatting for ~48 hours...they're like a mirror couple of us (kids nearly the same age, like the same movies/TV shows, bands, wives both way to into Halloween and wine, we're all huge sports fans, like the same bars, etc.) and it's awesome. And she has a bunch of sexy tats that drive me wild, so I'm really looking forward to this.
