Foreplay? A poor but nonetheless requisite substitute for a lack of passion. Oh well, all is not lost. Just don't neglect the best part of all, afterplay, the encore to a brilliant performance letting each other know how much you appreciate them. Standing ovations not always mandatory.
Afterplay - The smoking of cigarettes and burning the sheets, mutterings of appraisal and approval, maybe even a few toast crumbs after working up and satisfying the twin appetites.
The question is, do you make the toast before and take it into the boudoir, or jump out of bed to make it afterwards, unless you're not hungry of course.
A) Mibs - Afterplay is vastly overrated... I mean, what does a girl have to do to get some sleep?! Jeesh... we don't all want to talk y'know. Or snuggle.
B)Theland - I brought some expensive wine the other day that was on sale quite cheap... now I'm confused.
C) I'm off for a fag now trigs.... How much do you want to be me right now?! (I'm kidding, I'm just jealous of your clean lungs).
China - Mibs - Trigs :-
Would you agree that too much preperation could be counterproductive?
You could open a bottle of the wrong / flat wine, put on the wrong music or the wireless blows a fuse at an awkward moment, or you forget to turn the stove off and the toast gets burned, triggering the smoke alarms and sending out a fire crew!
So is simple spontenaity the answer?
But where is the romance in that?
Oh dear! What a lot I have to learn.
Does that mean that I should not open the door for my date, not buy her chocolates and flowers, not pour her the wine, not turn down the lights, not tune the wireless into the light programme or Luxembourg, and not suggest we slip into something more comfortable?
Well then, I can only let my imagination run riot on how to treat a lady in 2007.
