To go to Australia for 3 weeks of no stings sex?

[Menomaddness]

I'm a menopausal woman who for various very sad reasons hasn't had sex in far too long.

This morning an old school friend messaged me. I haven't seen him in 3 decades and he's lived in Australia for at least one of those. We're FB friends but I've never heard directly from him before.

From his FB, he's loving life with a different woman every weekend. He's either on the beach or in the pub dancing to live music or both.

Anyway we chatted back and forth for a while, he told me he's currently single and for a minute it really did seem like a realistic idea to suggest going out there for a few weeks of fun.

There are men more locally, but they all come with "complications". I also accept I'm being very presumptive in expecting him to be up for the idea 😆

I've never had any hankering to go to Aus!

Allegedly. On FB though 🙄which might not be the reality. He sounds a bit seedy to me, frankly.

What if the sex is shit? It's a big risk.

I would definitely find someone to shag closer to home. Of course his fb looks like he has a great life, isn't that what fb is for?

Hell yes op. Yanbu

It's a bit early days to plan something like that! At least message for a week or so before asking.

Why this man and not a different man?

What if you get there and he's got chronic halitosis?

YABU - Australia has a lot of crazy spiders 🕷️ and insects 🐜 !!

Where does this chap live? This could have a bearing on other activities.

Terrible idea.

Go for it, life is short. Have a back up plan if the sex thing doesn't work out, could be a fun holiday anyway!

Three weeks is ages. I don’t think I’d want to go on holiday with DH for three weeks let alone be stuck with some random.

and I sure as hell wouldn’t want someone landing on me for 3 weeks. No offence OP.

One date maybe but Australia is too far to go for one date.

Pack a bag and go!

If someone I hadn't seen for 30 years told me they were seriously considering flying across the world to see me, off the back of one Facebook message, I'd be getting a restraining order!

Do it. If I was in your position and had the money, why not? Go out there, enjoy the sun and sea and booze and potentially get railed for three weeks. Heaven.

Go! If he’s a crap shag go sight seeing, Australia is fab.

I'm surprised so many people are encouraging this.

She's not seen the man for 30 years, seemingly has no idea if he's interested and he's supposedly a play boy.

Why would he want to entertain OP for 3 weeks?

He might be riddled with all sorts if he really is shagging about so much.

If OP were already planning to go to Aus and had her eye on a weekend of shenanigans, then by all means, but to fly 24 hours at great cost, for a shag with what is essentially a stranger, is madness.

It is madness and those egging her on wouldn't do it themselves in RL, or if they did they'd be stupid.
He could turn out to be a right weirdo.

I actually would!
If she won't...

I think this is just a fantasy to be honest. Your thinking of inviting yourself to his for 3 weeks ? He might not want you.

I totally would!

This.

He sounds like an std's dream

This is crazy and desperate it's thousands of miles away and you've not seen him for years

sounds like a good way to pick up a nasty infection.
