Sixth sense and technology
[QUOTE=AliasSM;1941873]You've for that right. Since my almost fatal slip-up with the unexplained condom in the wash, everything is above the radar. I can still get out on the rare occasion, but she questions every minute that I am late, even legitimate work commitments.
Last weekend, I was up late using my smart phone to check out the latest posts on this forum and she accused me of being on line with my girlfriend. It was just a passing comment, but you could tell she was serious. She is definitely watching every move. I'm just lucky that she is not tech-savy enough to know how to track my cell phone location. I would definitely be toast.
By the way, for those of you that need to know your SO's location, the Find IPhone app is priceless. As long as she has her phone on, it will tell you exactly where she is while you are trying to discreetly entertain your SB. It is an added level of protection to avoid having the SO accidentally show up at the same location, especially if you occasionally take your SB out on the town for dining or drinks.[/QUOTE]One thing that I had forgotten about are the red light, and speed cameras (don't forget EZ-pass too). I returned home this past week to see an envelop from a jurisdiction that I often play in and seldom work on the counter. My heart raced as I opened it trying to figure out a cover story that would hold water. I opened the envelop to see a nice clear picture of the warden's car! She had taken one of her kids to a concert that evening!
I'm now very cognizant of my speed when heading to / from a rendezvous.
The Journal posts are only the half of it
My brothers,
I trust you all had an enjoyable Thanksgiving. In reading over the recent posts, especially from the first-years, I want to congratulate you all for getting out there and trying to make things happen.
Reading our little journal is certainly your best first step, but there is no substitute for experience in the field. Our collected wisdom will certainly help minimize your mistakes, but nothing can guarantee 100% success. Don't be afraid of failure; you will learn from that as much as from your successes.
Green. Good for you. It took you some months, I believe, but it seems like you have two steady babies at the moment, and unless you are BT, Revvo or Hollywood, that's probably all you should expect to handle!
Ltnric. I never pay for more than coffee / drinks / etc on an m&g. No sugar until I have seen the pussy is the way I approach things, but in the end you need to go with your gut. Each situation is different, and the successful SD is a fluid one. That said, be aware of the scammers at all times. In your present situation, I would point-blank ask if the next time you get together, would she be comfortable with you getting a room. If the answer is other than positive, move on.
Fyrguy. Same for you, in my opinion. I totally believe in letting things evolve at their own pace, but the goal should never be too far out of sight, namely the FC. There are ways to keep the sexual tension on without being gross about it. Again, trust your gut; there are no hard and fast rules, just pitfalls to watch out for. Otherwise, fluidity is the word of the day.
Good luck to all, and keep up the good work.
Scott.
