The Phero-induced ramblings of a madwoman...

Been there, done that, part of the club. Know the feeling too well.

LOL - the family that sprays (pheromones) together, stays together. So - the A314 and MX235 dosed kids are all between 9 and 14? Interesting -

How is that going? In particular the A314 - how strong a dose do you think it is? What are you mixing it into? Do you mind saying how old the young men are who are wearing it?

I can only imagine with teens and tweens.

Bella and I are trying to set you up with one of the guys in my martial arts class - the one with the mohawk and lots of ink. But he is mid-20s, single, employed, looking for a female friend, and very fit. Very.

The other thing that couples do is get caught in what I call the “parent trap”. When the kids are young they take up a lot of time. It is often hard to maintain social adult friendships because of kids bedtimes, meal schedules, school-work, activities, etc..

But once they start getting older then the older ones can babysit the younger ones, they have friends and/or activities like “bowling night” where they are out of the house and parents actually have time for an adult social life. Not to mention “mommy and daddy time” where you don’t have to worry about location or noise or locking a door 'cause they are gone.

(Of course you have to be careful with that. One weekend evening while I was still in middle school we dropped off one of my female friends at her house after a movie or something. When I saw her at school on Monday she said she walked in, saw both of her parents sitting on the couch, went around to say goodnight - and saw neither one had anything on below the waist.:open_mouth: :o She was still a little :open_mouth: at school on Monday.:stuck_out_tongue: )

One problem that arises is when you do not have any outside friends. Then you can feel trapped or like you do not have any friends or anyone to talk to. Likewise if you don’t have any outside friends to talk to about life at home. Becomes a bad circle - no friends and the unhappiness bleeds over into the home. Then you are unhappy at home and have no one to talk to about it. Then you are unhappy because you feel alone and have no friends.

Exactly - that is how I end up talking to a lot of different people - search for the commonalities to create conversation and connection. Crack a joke. Ask them questions and get them talking about something they really like or do that is interesting.

My boys really like the idea of pheromones. They had an itty bitty drop of A314 mixed with some really revolting sample cologne - Michael Jordan I think. No, must have been his grandpa’s. I did not tell them what it was called, but they said it smelled like old men???
They really dont need help in the respect department. They are at least a head taller than their peers - and other boys their age literally look up to them.
They like Instant Shine because it makes them feel happy. Otherwise, really no effects noted last night.
As far as H is concerned. I got him the A314 and a couple of other things to help him to be social. He has always been a loner. Never felt comfortable making friends. He expects me to do that for him. When I do try to set up a couples thing, he picks apart the other guy - too into sports (my H only watches the olympics & hates football, baseball & basketball)too much money, too into toys etc etc. He is a very judgemental person. I think quite shallow too. He is all about appearance. Especially his. He spends ages getting ready. He works out too much, is concerned with how tan he is, and weighs himself constantly. I feel if i put that much effort into my appearance, life would pass me by.

Hey - the guy with the mohawk sounds interesting. uno problemo - ummm isnt he WAY too young for me?
I am VERY fit too - and VERY OLD! (43). Im sure he would be sooo excited to be fixed up with an old bat! ~'~

maybe IG would be better for them?

you are only as old as you feel, since I haven’t felt you yet, I cannot comment. :smiley:

LOL Woofie! That’s true! Now I dont feel so old. Thanks!

Alright there phernoob, you’re treading on shaky ground! I’m 45, soon to be 46. SteveO, Bella, Bosshank and Renny are right up there too, and Tisha’s closing in on ya.

And, I’m sure there are others too! Watch your mouth, before we have to wash it out with soap! :stuck_out_tongue: :wink:

Oh Hell. My mouth has been washed out with soap so many times - I cant taste it anymore.

Ha! :stuck_out_tongue:

OK then, we’ll wash it out with Instant Shine, and maybe a bit of Instant Sexiness (b), and what the hell ,a couple shots from my to-go of straight Androstenone at 112.5 mcg’s per spray, just for kicks! :stuck_out_tongue:

I never thought of pheromones as a mouthwash or gargle rinse.

<gargle gargle>
Oh Crap! I think a tooth fell out! I blame it on the 'none…

Yep! much faster dispersion. Just gargle for a bit then blow hard on your targets! :roll_eyes:

Aint that a figure of speech? Plus, do ya think they would be happier if I had no teeth?

I guess that is one way to cleanup after kissing A$$ all day.
I know I have heard of people licking the bottle, but not using the pheromones orally. :smiley:

Ohhh, the things I could say here. But nope! I’m gonna climb up outa the gutter and be nice! :roll_eyes:

Lick the bottle?
Reminds me of the party trick I used to do in college when I was drunk. Mark - you have heard this one i am sure.

My friends used to dare me to see how far down over a beer bottle I could put my mouth. Great fun.

Yep I remember, the lag of a gag reflex and your little bar trick witht the beer bottle. That’s why I held back on the toothless comment. :wink: :stuck_out_tongue:

Sounds like a deep-rooted insecurity - lack of real self-confidence, questioning real self-worth, or real desirability for who he really is in the eyes of others.

Also somewhat passive-aggressive: expects you to bring the friends there but then picks them apart.

May also be trying - consciously or sub-consciously to put you in the position of always trying to please him instead of the way things ought to work in a marriage: both parties trying to take care of each other, mutual support, complementing each other’s strengths … but hard to say from outside looking in through such small keyholes …

First - gotta stop with the old bat stuff - that is self-defeating. Men love confidence (but not arrogance) in a woman. Or at least men worth going for.

Second - Mark’s right - too many of us the same age. We can find you if we have to - lol.

Third - Mr. Mohawk is one of the few advanced guys I cannot routinely take. He may win - but he has his hands full. I used to disarm those younger guys by reminding them how old and broken I was, etc. etc.. They know better now. Heck - most of them go to twice as many practices as I do and cannot routinely win against me. Trust me - they have learned that age does not affect performance all that much.

:open_mouth: This conversation is heading south in more ways than one … :stuck_out_tongue:

you mean that isn’t that a normal activity at college parties?

I have seen that done with a standard longneck bottle, and she was able to lick the bottom and we were sure the young lady got paid by the minute on weekends. :open_mouth: (talk about no gag reflex)
I mean she was a Cheerleader.

:open_mouth: I uhhh will leave that one alone … for now … however, Your Honor, I reserve the right to cross- at a later time … lol.:stuck_out_tongue:

Well then counselor, you will have to approach the bar…

I know I do… often - like every judge!

Once again, you have hit the nail on the head. How scary. Do you know us?
Seriously. Often this type of behavior in men is a result of a domineering insecure father - with no support from the mother. A self-perpetuating “can’t win for losing” situation.
Yes, I am put in the position of trying to please (i am a pleaser- fixer type)- but things always fall short of meeting the standard. Why? Because people like that really dont know how to define what they want - so its always this nebulous out of reach ideal.
Yea, when i got married, i thought i was signing up for a partnership…
Well. I am too old for that crap. I have three kids to think about. Plus getting old is scary. I want to be with someone i can count on. Not someone whose idea of support is “dont be ridiculous - youll be fine”. Not a good thing to say to a woman waiting for biopsy results to see if she has breast cancer.

Ok this is getting tooo serious.

Back to gumming the beer bottle…
