Hooking up with my best friends sister.

Please explain, HM cool smiley

Any issues between the sister and myself affected my friendship with the brother which then filtered out to the group of friends as a whole, which then affected things between the sister and I even more. hot smiley

Phew!

Can you really pick out the biggest mistake? Isn't it all just a series of mistakes defining our lives?

Who's to say what is and what isn't a mistake? In everyone's life there's roads not taken, but it's impossible to know if not taking any of them was a mistake, since you can't know for certain what would have happened if you HAD taken them. I like to think everything worked out exactly the way it was supposed to, even if by all appearances that might not seem to be the case.



Here's a mistake: a guy who works with my best friend told him about the time he was at a Little League game in 1975. There were some parents of a kid on the other team, watching their 9-year old play. As they were doing this, they were not paying attention to what their other son, who was about 2 and a half, was doing. My buddies friend saw that the kid was climbing on the back of the bleachers, and was in danger of falling. He was about to say something to the parents, but for some reason decided he shouldn't tell people how to raise their kids, and said nothing. The game went on. The parents watched the game. About 10 minutes later, there was a loud thud. The boy had fallen from the top of the bleacher. And he was dead.

My friend's pal says that for the past 35 years not a day goes by that he doesn't think of it, and wished that he had spoken up. Sure, it wasn't his kid, but he saw the danger and didn't say a word. He says that was a mistake.


There was a story yesterday about a 7 year old kid who was mauled at a zoo in Kansas by a leopard. Turns out he climbed over a fence and got too close to a cage. Wasn't that a mistake? If there were adults watching, should they not have spoken up?


Or is it all a "road not taken?"

I've made so many life changing mistakes in my life it's ridiculous, but hadn't I made them I wouldn't got turned on to the next thing.
My mistakes are always chick-based, rarely, or never, economically. Thank God.

I was supposed to get married last year to the love of my life, we were really good for each other, engaged for a year and talked about everything and always had a good time, but subconsciously I f***ed up, being a bit "it's my way", guess I would've gained from having a sister and not just a brother. Chicks are much more smarter and intelligent and etc etc than us guys, and they are indeed very vulnerable.

But I don't think I will ever fully recover from this, she broke up with me on the 17th of june 2010 and I can't be arsed going through all this work again, engagement, planning of marriage etc etc.

You're a rag trade girl, You're the queen of porn, You're the easiest lay on the white house lawn!!

I'd call it natural selection. Where were the 7-year-old's parents while their son was climbing into a leopard cage? Stupid people have stupid kids. It's like when you see a mother duck leading her ducklings across a highway and an 18-wheeler comes along and wipes them all out. Smart ducks don't make their nests right next to the highway. Their babies are the ones that survive and get to grow up and make more smart ducks.

So you would just sit back and watch the kid climb the fence? That was the point of my first example, that the guy who didn't speak up regretted it for the rest of his life.

No, I might very well have tapped on dad's shoulder, pointed at his kid, and then let nature take its course. But maybe the very next day he would have chased a ball into the street while his parents weren't watching and gotten run over by a school bus. Or maybe he would have grown up to be a mass murderer. Maybe he would have grown up to cure cancer. We just don't know. Neither does your hypersensitive friend who's been beating himself up over it for 35 years.

When I "allowed" myself to get very addicted to having sex with 2 girls at the same time years ago. It started off innocent enough and then I got way too serious about it- making all these "plans"... Woman had to be tall, exotic, busty, one blond, one brunette.... one white, one latina, one asian, one black.... it got really intense and maybe even sick (to some - my cousin thought I was sick. But she's just uptight) I eventually got "off the ride" by seeing how empty it all was... what really put me off was I couldn't stand girls "texting" in the middle of oral sex - how rude !!!

Were the girls giving or receiving? The latter is just rude, the former very difficult to do. Lots of multi-tasking.

And it's "girls", plural? All at once, or one at a time? Maybe they were texting each other.

No offense taken...But it seems it woulkd be easier to text if the girls were in receiving mode. Multi-tasking hands-free, as it were...

Not making a move on this SUPER HOT and nice girl in my high school marketing class Junior year. I will never forget her.

Seems really stupid now that I typed it out...but man, she was hot! Just something about her that stuck in my mind. I kinda hope she's now fat w/4 kids.

I found a girl I had a thing for in Jr. High - 35 years later. We actually got together and connected, if you catch my drift.
