Ok so I have had my fair share of one night stands, flings, relationships, oh and a marriage!

I've had quite a "good time" since my separation last year, and my close friends are very supportive and usually eager to hear the gossip!

I don't want a relationship as I have children, my house, career prospects etc and I love being single. I do however have a high sex drive and I do like male attention so I have quite a few friends with benefits and I still do all the tinder/pof stuff too.

An old friend I don't live near anymore made some quite judgemental comments about what I was getting up to and it surprised me, as none of my friends are like that and actually admit to living vicariously thorough me Grin

So I was thinking about it, and why do some people think it's wrong to have casual sex with as many people as you like as long as it's consensual, you use protection and you're not cheating on anyone?

I can't think of any reasons why? Where does it come from? Religion? Keeping women in their place?

I'm friends with her because she's been there for me emotionally when I've been through some tough times and me for her too. She does have good points lol but mostly just because I've known her nearly 15 years!

For those who wondered what I meant, basically I like black men! And I live in the whitest place ever lol there's literally no black people here! Not one! I don't think they are desperate they're attractive and young and fun to be around, have a job and a car etc, I have only actually had two one nights stands because they were rubbish and I didn't want to see them again, the rest I've seen for at least a couple of months.

And yes I think maybe I'm just worth travelling for Smile

Glad you are still reading. But please......take on board the comments about STDs and personal safety. You are at risk and condoms don't stop everything.

Yes I've taken them on board Smile

It's double standards. I was raised to be very judgey but once I started thinking for myself...boy did i have fun!
