Event: I’m going to be doing a free-to-the-public chat, live on BlogTV on Tuesday the 24th this month. I’ll be logging on around 4 or 5 o’clock CST (I can give you more specifics on Monday.) This will be open to anyone who’s been wanting to chat with me and ask me questions. Sort of like a interview where you can ask whatever you want. Hopefully I can answer some of the questions I get over and over again as clearly as possible. So make time after work or school on Tuesday to log-on to www.blogtv.com/People/Joodie and meet up with me!
With Thanksgiving coming up a lot of my American readers probably have busy schedules ahead of them but stop by if you can! Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday because, well… I just love turkey and potatoes. There is absolutely nothing more satisfying than a simple meal like that. Oh and pumpkin pie is usually pretty amazing too. It hits all the right spots for my picky tastes. Does anybody have any weird family dishes they make each year? Something strange to add to the traditional meal? My family puts corn flakes (the cereal) in the macaroni and cheese. I’ve never really been a fan though.
Lastly, this weeks TMI Tuesday! The questions were pretty good but I wanted to do a full blog post, sorry for the delay! Enjoy!
1. What are your thoughts on Polyamorous Relationships?
I’m the type of person who gets really involved with one person at a time (friendly or romantically) so I cannot imagine myself ever being in a Poly relationship. But, I have no reason to dislike or like them. Other people’s romantic lives are their own, I can’t say what it should be/look like for them.
2. What is on your list of relationship “deal breakers”?
Well, conservative types religious wise or politically. (There would simply be no peace between us.) Superficially, I don’t like the idea of someone overweight and unhealthy. Also, I dig really tall guys so if someone is shorter than me it’s basically an automatic nix. Um, I guess immature, inexperienced, men with poor overall hygiene grate my nerves like none other. Honestly, I’m just really picky. Usually I feel it or I don’t. But those with current, unmonitored mental health issues are simply not date-able for me. I’m a somewhat fragile girl emotionally, and my own mental health is very important to me. So I need to be close to strong, healthy types.
3. How long did it take you you to find the type “you are into” and/or accept it?
Well, the type I am into has tattoos, progressive ideas on life, isn’t much of a party-goer, and is on a stable path. So basically I’ve never encountered my ‘type’. The tattoos lure me in. I have high hopes their personality soars above and beyond. But I just haven’t met many different ‘types’ of guys. All I’ve known are party going men with no real direction or drive in life. So, I’m open to different types… all I can be sure of is that I really love tattoos and a guy who respects women in general. That’s a good combo. I have to figure out the rest later on.
4. What is your view on full disclosure about past relationships? (Lies of omission not lies of commission)
Full disclosure sounds like such a scary legal term. Does this mean like, telling absolutely everything that ever happened? Personally, I’d get bored. I’d just like to know the important bits. Why aren’t you together? How’d you meet? What’d you like about each other? Just like… the cliff notes version. I like honesty. But I’m only talking about lasting, deep relationships where actual feelings were involved. Flings are just fun to chat about when you’re bored. I could care less about the color of their hair or like… whatever other crazy details don’t matter.
5. Have you ever been in a situation where you were not comfortable complying with the adventurous request of a lover?
Oh, I tend to be the one wanting to go the extra step I suppose. But yes I’ve been in a few situations outside of my comfort zone. Sometimes you just say to hell with it and try it. Other times, you let em know tonight ain’t the night for that… and the evening rolls along smoothly. No big major scuffs or anything for me. The whole fetish checklist always seemed like a great idea for close couples. Hard nos. Soft nos. Yes please. Etc. It’d be cool to know someone that well and intimately that you never had a really scary confrontation. I plan to avoid those if I can. Probably why one-night-stands aren’t always the proudest moments for most… you may do things you’re not really into just because. I’d rather be more level headed and intelligent about sex. Communication first. Sex later.
