5 years of calls and texts

Whether the content bothers them or not, I don't really care. Once I'm done with them, for invading my privacy, they will be quite upset. How dare they!

I can honestly say no. My family might get a better understanding of who I really am but noone would be upset.

Probably. I have said some pretty hurtful/mean stuff about people I care about...(in my dark days, I would never do that now)

Hi Tyler!

look at my profile pic........what do YOU think? lol

You like reading HORRIBLE writing, that does a HORRIBLE job of depicting that lifestyle?

no one said it was a GREAT book.....but I bet you know nothing about it yourself

jus sayin'

I know more than you, clearly.

geez some of you guys........make brownies out of ****.......literally.....lol

calm down, I answered the OP question.........I don't see others being quoted.....your perception is wrong.....its ok. I bet you are wrong a lot in life......from your profile pic I can tell

You know, I've honestly never read the book, but as I have lived the lifestyle, I feel like its over-marketing and commercialization almost ensures that it doesn't accurately depict the lifestyle.

And furthermore, if you are in the lifestyle, then why would the book even interest you? Jus' sayin'.

I mean, you would be living more exciting moments than the book, right?

^^ This.

I "read" the first book, and by "read" I mean I basically skimmed through it searching for the "steamy sex scenes" and found them to be very :yawn: . (Never mind the fact that it clearly wasn't edited, and the writing was sophomoric at best. I mean come on. She's in her twenties and she doesn't know what the "tingling down there" is? :sick: )

I also know people who are in that lifestyle and based on what they've told me that book does not depict it well at all. It seems to me she just did a Google search, read Wikipedia and ran with that. Everything the main character did (I forget her name) was in direct opposition of what her so-called Dom told her to do and correct me if I'm wrong but I highly doubt that anyone who is seriously in the lifestyle would let their Sub get away with what she got away with.

However the author DID have an awesome marketing agent. I would love to know who it was for when I get my novel published.

You may now carry on with the original theme of the thread.

Still trying to wrap my mind around the fact that some bro is actually, repeatedly bragging about reading that awful book. You need to get out more. (And read more. How that thing became a hit, I will never understand. Any random erotica site has better material...).

My daughter got into my MFP account because she was using my ipod when a comment came through. She was reading my PM's and was totally grossed out by a conversation I was having with one of my guy friends. MFP is supposed to be my safe place! This is why I got rid of my "toys", I don't want to die first and have my kids or my parents find them.

HA HA - got a funny story for you...my house was broken into a couple of years ago...when I was going through with the cops and my mom, in addition to a ransacked bedroom, in the MIDDLE of my bed was a bright purple toy...TURNED ON. Yeah...that just happened. But I figured I am a grown a$$ed woman, so whatever!!!!

Noooooo! Haha! I would've died right there. When I was 18, I was in my room with one of my friends, and my mom was looking for something in my closet. She pulled out a tube of flavored gel, holds it out to my friend and says "What does she need this for?!" No wonder my dad had to buy her a book. :laugh: Sorry, didn't mean to hijack. :bigsmile:

yeah no fricken way.........and if you include PM's on here, some people would be shocked.....and it wouldn't even be about me....LOL \m/

nothing major.

Nope. I'm terrible, BUT my loved ones know my sense of humor, so there wouldn't be any butthurt. Anything that's put in writing can be seen by someone it isn't intended to be seen by - so I *try* to always think, before putting something in writing, "Would I be upset if this was seen by everyone I know?". If the answer is yes, I'll try to rephrase or wait until a face-to-face conversation. But even face-to-face conversation, I'm a touch paranoid. Like...what if we're saying "Oh my god, can you believe so-and-so did whatever" and I accidentally hit my phone and Siri hears the persons name and calls them...now they are listening to a kiki session that could have serious ramifications to our relationship...so, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

This.
