Milf and nookies.

For reasons that I don't fully understand, it seems that Aphrodite is being generous. Have I finally traversed an important obstacle? It would nice to believe that I'm overcoming a significant karmic hurdle.

Like contrasting sisters, Connie and Roane seem to be coming into my world. Both are 40+ independent women, dog-lovers, business-owners. Both have experience under their belts. Both also just happen to be HSV2-positive.

Connie, as I recently mentioned, is an Italian paralegal and financial planner with a downtown condo and a slobbering English bulldog. Roane is a Canadian salon owner, a bikerchick from a quaint little Ontario burg with two gigantic, black poodles. Connie is Versace, Godiva, and cappucino. Roane is bluejeans, tattoos, and Harley Davidson. Connie is kidless. Roane has two punker boys. Connie picked me up through work. Roane messaged me through an STD-aware dating site.

Suddenly, having HSV feels like being a part of some unseelie elite, some sexually outlawed club with secret coded handshakes and wink-wink-nudge-nudge-hey-it's-ok-we're-in-this-together cred. This seems totally bizarre and yet, totally liberating.

And how is it that my dating curve has suddenly swung from mid20s artist to mid40s milf? It's been years and years since I've known a lover (not that anything has happened yet) who was older than I. So strange. I wonder how this will all turn out.

Hopefully everything will turn out the way it was meant to be. Not to sound too cryptic, but there's a plan for each of us. Our own individual path that may cross another's and vice-versa. But this doesn't always happen at the same time. Paths always cross - it's finding the one that meets yours at the same time.

And who's to say that a 20-something artist type can't also be a MILF???? :-)

Sounds like you are crossing into new territory. Have fun exploring it!

Generally, I'm confident that the universe unfolds Herself as She does, and the more we are able to enjoy the ebbs and tides of It All, the greater happiness we can lead our lives unto.

But I also think the universe hears our wishes, and occasionally is willing to cut us a little slack for what we might desire. She is, after all, consistently changing.

You're absolutely right: a 20something artist could very easily be a milf too. smirk She'd be pretty hot.

It's all new. I'm open to possibilities. A date with Roane this afternoon didn't quite turn out as expected, but that's ok.

Ah, the universe is a strange and mysterious place. This latest turn of events made me smile. Enjoy the ride, Rogue!

Rogue, the fact that you are open to new possibilities and experiences is what makes you so fascinating to read. Speaking of which, hope you intend to fill us in your date with Roane.

Shayne and I are talking.

I'm not taking things for granted, but it's certainly a surprise to be encountering others who are HSV2+ at this juncture, even if little else happens. Weird, really. Thank you.

Thank you. I try to be, and sometimes I succeed. Meditating on water helps.

There's a post coming that involves Roane, but I have no expectations.
