so yesterday in the gym I was using a cable fly machine, and looked up and it had a pullup bar. So I tried a chinup. I was successful. I'm fairly certain that I've never been able to do that. Still can't do any pullups, dough. I guess this is normal?

Meh. It's like a horror movie to me bc it could potentially happen...
As for the movie and acting? Meh I've seen better haha.
I don't go in there for a reason. I was a religion major and wrote paper after paper over the human psyche with emotions and thought processes in every possible situation. I did it for 5 years. I mean I love talking about moral and social issues, but I come here to fuk around lol.
I understand some subjects are just too interesting to pass up, but idk if I want to get too far into them, nomsayin?
I dont like sounding pompous, and it seems like every time I get into a subject that I'm knowledgeable about, I come off like that... * sigh* c'est last vie...
Lol Wut...
Intimate, by definition, can be sex. "being intimate with someone" is sex, no matter if there are feelings involved.

I think the word I'm thinking of is emotional intimacy. I guess my chakras are alligned, you could say. I mainly focus on the inhalation and exhalation of my breath to clear my mind. This stimulates the ajna.
A mother can be intimate with her baby, and it doesn't have to be sexual at all.
It depends. Do you feel a sense of connection with your FWB? It's an unwritten rule not to have any emotions involved with FWBs.
Edit: According to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intimate_relationship), intimacy involved both physical and emotional.
I would assume that is solely based on gender however. Men are physically intimate with women, and women are emotionally intimate with men.Last edited by SeymourCake; 12-23-2013 at 08:13 PM.

I think you could go a step further and say "romantically emotional intimacy". Then you rule out prostitution. but not anything else. Even with fwb you have REI... At least to some degree...with someone you know you already have some sort of relationship with them, and you must think of them in some sort of romantic way in order to take that relationship to the next level. Nit saying the the emotion you feel fir them is love, but you do have an emotional romantic way of thinking of them oryou wouldn't have thought to have sex with them... No?

This is just a matter of lust vs. love. A prostitute doesn't care whether or not she has to become intimate with her clients. They don't have to take it to "the next level" in order to have sex because all they want is the money. As far as FWBs go, you don't have to be intimate, unless you chose to do so (though it's not recommended). FWB are solely for the purpose of fulfilling your sexual needs; much like prostitution.

Lust for a prostitute and lust for a friend is different in my mind. With a prostitute one doesn't care for the other at all, only as much as when satisfaction will be met. With a friend you duo Care about the other person... They aren't just a cumdumpster. Yes you still want satisfaction and it's a means to an end, but if you treated a friend without consideration, then you wouldn't be much of a friend, now would you?
That's the difference in my mind...***Sweet Southern charm voice. Boobs of Mass Destruction.***

It depends on your definition of caring. Would you care if the prostitute had sex with another person? No (or at least you shouldn't in terms of emotional intimacy). Would you care if your friends with benefits had sex with another person? No (or at least you shouldn't in terms of emotional intimacy). Unless you're in a legit relationship with someone, then that's when you should be concerned whether or not they're screwing someone on the side.

Sounds like you are willing to gargle this dudes semen. Just take the yacht to england, pick up tiff, let him bang tiff all day cuz they are same age. And if you hate it, go to some spanish port and tour spain on your own and then fly home.

you sound like you're dying to do it, so you should. it sounds like fun. the part I think is being overstated are these "business connections".

I find negative pullups/chins work way faster at building strength for newbs. It's how I get all my non-lifting friends to start off.
Jump up to the bar and lower yourself as slowly as possible. Go twice per week, do three to five sets and increase the reps each session. Will be sore as fuk at first.
After two or three weeks, try doing a pullup without the jump to begin with. Pretty soon after that, you'll be able to switch to sets of regular pulls/chins.
edit: use neutral grip if you experience any elbow pain.

Perhaps your computer fixing friend can help you out. Or put an ad on Craigslist. "Will trade sex for new fence."
Are they going to hire you perm? If you don't have anything else going on, perhaps you could go fix Tiff's fence?

Lol nah. They told me last week that they couldnt extend me because they wont have the budget for it until maybe march. But they insisted that they loved my work and wanted to write me recommendation letters.
I'm a bit bummed but not as badly as I imagined. It's a blank canvas filled with options and opportunities. No real direction but whatever seems interesting and worth my while. There's some freedom found when you dont have much to lose. Kinda cool in its own weird hobo way.
Since I'm working through the holidays, I plan on taking a break from employment for at least 2 weeks and then actually see whats out there.
But I wont lie. There's a huge part of me thats srsly considering not working until early march. I have some travel arrangements late feb, and i have enough money saved that a couple of months of no income can be feasable.
But thats assuming I'll find something immediately when I return from my trip.
Still thinking. Nothings in stone yet, except my trip."The Way Out Is Through"
