Are you Experienced?
It's Wednesday night. I'm finishing off some Pinot Noir, thinking about going out this weekend. I'm looking for single girlfriends who will go out with me and have fun. I realized yesterday that the women who I'm closest to are my complete opposite. They like to stay home. Three of them have boyfriends/husbands. One of them has a kid (but she was a homebody before that). She also doesn't drink. The single one also doesn't drink. At least not with me. Even though she claims to want to know stuff about wine. News flash: you have to experience it to know about it. But here's the most shocking thing about these women: they are sexually inexperienced. One was a virgin when she got married. Another says she has 'slipped' a couple of times, but is basically waiting to get married. Another has never been with anyone but her boyfriend of 6 years. And he's only been with her. And another can count all of her sexual partners on one hand.
And then there's me.
I'm not sure I would even remember all of them. Or some that I remember, but their names escape me. I feel like some sort of freak. Is this why I'm single? Because I don't hold out and make them fantasize about what's ahead? I wonder what kind of sex these women have. Is it good? I remember when I was inexperienced. I had no idea what good sex was. It is possible that they have good sex? I also remember not being completely comfortable with my sexual self for many many years. These women are basically tethered to the person they'll probably be spending the majority of their lives with. Are they sexually comfortable? Confident? Satisfied?
I have noticed that I am significantly more flamboyant and extroverted than all of these women. Is there a connection? I dress differently than they do, willingly attract attention to myself, speak my mind. They generally don't. They seem to admire it in me, though. I make them laugh (except for one, who has no sense of humor). They seem to like hanging out with me, when they can tear themselves away from their boys. So that's why I'm left alone all the time. They have found some sort of secret potion to make guys stick with them while I am fabulously alone. With all my short skirts and sexy shoes that have clearly gotten me nowhere.
But at least I know what great sex feels like.
