Joking aside, I need help!
I am in my mid forties, split with husband of 22 years over a year ago. He left for a younger woman. Have been dating this (younger) guy for two months, and tomorrow is shag night.
Seriously, I am terrified! Husband was a bit of a missionary position man and I'm not very experienced. Plus, having had four kids my tummy is stretched beyond belief and my boobs have long since gone south. Plus downstairs isn't what it once was..... :(
I have bought underwear. I have waxed. I have bought new sheets (why? like he cares?).
I think I look like a hogathian gin whore and I've forgotten how to do it :(
Help :(
Please be kind, I don't post here often.
Thank you

Sniggered at the carpet burns!

When are you seeing him again?

destinyorfate completely agree. I love the happy threads, so heartening. Although the less happy threads can be very insightful.

4th or 5th time????!!! It's amazing how quickly you can go off someone Wink

Mango....Glad you think this is a happy thread, I've been in a bad place for ages so that cheered me up no end :)
Verytellytubby.....Not for a week as I have the much adored seriously in the way of sex kids.
Seriously ladies. If I can do it, anyone can. I am not putting myself down here. But after years of a body facist ex husband, I can honestly say, some guys just don't see your flaws in the same way that you do. As several very clever posters pointed out earlier. Wine for everyone! And thank you to all that replied.

Sorry, that was supposed to be a cross out, rather than an underscore, but my point is well made.....

I'd say don't worry, just relax and have a good time.
I met a lovely man after being alone in 7 year toxic and abusive and sexless relationship and not doing it for nearly 4 years, first time with my new guy was amazing, he knows my body is far from perfect, had my DD when I was 19, my body went from size 6/8 to nearly 16 but he doesn't mind although I prefer to do it with lights off. so just have a nice time with him, you've been dating for some time so he must really like you :)
