Pulling on his pants after our intimate encounter in my Las Vegas hotel room, the cute 23-year-old Id just picked up holds out his cellphone, urging me to tap in my number.
You really dont have to take it, I say.
Having sex with a stranger is thrilling, but Im not that interested in a repeat performance.
Two minutes after hes gone, I climb back into bed and text my husband, Scott, whom Ive been with for 18 years. Just saying good night, I type. Good night, dove, writes back Scott from wherever he is.
Scenarios like these were typical during my year of living dangerously the crazy 12 months in 2008 and 2009 I jokingly call my Wild Oats Project, when Scott and I had an open marriage.
Stuck in a rut our once-a-week sex life was loving, but lacked spontaneity and passion I was craving seduction and sexual abandon. I was having a midlife crisis and chasing this profound, deeply rooted experience of being female.
Before then, starting a family had felt like one route to this elusive state of feminine fulfillment. But Scott had made it absolutely clear -SNIP-

My experience has been that Freeper women are beautiful.
mart, too.
The divorce rate for all childless couples is 66% (don't have the numbers for those who made a conscious decision not to procreate). The divorce rate for couples with children is around 40%, and it is slightly higher for those with only girls than it is for those with only boys.
Let’s try that again. A letter got dropped:
“My experience has been that Freeper women are beautiful.
Smart, too.”
Cold, creepy. I really don’t see what the attraction is.
“I just find the whole article sad and a statement as to where big city liberal values and selfishness leaves you. It seems like an empty life with no real direction.”
Worth repeating. Thank you for putting my thoughts into words.
Progress - women can now celebrate the same shallow and meaningless life decisions that used to be mistakes made primarily by men.
Its a good thing we can read articles like this online now. Had it been a paper magazine, I would have probably read the article with plastic gloves on. Yet still I feel like spraying the keyboard with Lysol.
The argument that men have been doing so, so she is some sort of female hero for emulating bad behavior... it is just as wrong when men do it.
So tired of the romanticizing of this “Eat, Pray, Love” kind of crap. And this type of person evangelized their evil.
Someone should send these kind of people a bottle of barbeque sauce, so they have something to spread on themselves to smell nice when they roast after death.
Single people very often DO live as they damn well please. Married couples generally find some compromise or boundaries.
SLUT.
She's guilty.
Laz would hit it
You know, it's one thing to chase hard after selfishness, especially if one then comes to the conclusion that "vanity, vanity all is vanity", and there is a certain repentance that results. But, when one chases after the wind, destroys a marriage, and perhaps lives, including those people she may have sexually defrauded, and then brags about it saying how exotic and exciting it was is exceptionally destructive.
Here, come follow me! This is the path to self-discovery and enlightenment! If you eat from this apple you will become wise!
I've learned a lot by making mistakes - they are sometimes unavoidable but always a mistake. Mistakes should never be celebrated. As for owning up to our dark side, I have a dark side too. The difference is I consider it a bad thing, and I resist it with all my energy. God does not celebrate our dark side, and I would prefer to follow God as presented in scripture, rather than following a woman with the morals of a frat boy as presented in a memoir.
Her marriage didn't fail because of this. It failed because she was...
"Trapped in a marriage where the sex was routine..."
Do you realize how intolerable that was? She had no choice but to go $crew strangers!"
So anyone who doesn’t want to have kids is a dirtbag? Not everyone is cut out to be a parent. He was honest about it upfront, and the open marriage wasn’t his idea. So what makes him a dirtbag?
I suspect this is just the NYC alternative lifestyle crowd to make infidelity not just shameless but to make infidelity MANDATORY.
Guess that is something to be proud of. We do live in a great country at a great time. Evil is the order of the day.
