Well beth will you come back?

Double post...... Lol

EA looks like SugarBeth sure has your attention!

You know, I posted in Houston for a couple of weeks before heading to Lafayette from Baton Rouge, and I only had like one response so I shot up to Shreveport and met a bunch of lovely menfolk. I will eventually hit Houston, but I don't think t's going to be before August or so. I've kind of gotten warned by a few people that Midland alone probably is going to keep me chained to the city for a good week or two. Don't know if that'll happen, but I'm willing to give it a shot

Hey babe, I don't know if you've taken the Plan B yet, but no one seems to be answering you about whether or not it makes you sick.

I've only taken it once, but it just made me queasy. My stomach was rolling around, but it was not painful and didn't make me vomit.

As for getting on a regular birth control: Try a low-estrogen daily pill like Zovia or Alesse. I've been on both ($5-$10 a month) and neither made me sick EVER. You just gotta remember to take them every single day, cause if you don't your period will start! I hate when I miss a pill and my period starts in the middle of the month so I have to cancel all my appointments

Good luck, hope it helps!

I didn't read all the posts, sorry. But I and other guys I've talked can tell IMMEDIATELY if the condom breaks. Thankfully this has never happened to me while hobbying. Only with ex GFs of mine, and rarely. But it's a distinct difference.

And yes, the primal urge to continue when it happens, because of how good it feels, can drive most rational "good" guys over the edge and make them not stop. I'm a "good" guy and it was extremely hard for me to fight the instinct to keep going - despite all the dangers.

Oh and SugarBeth, if you ever travel to Dallas PLEASE PLEASE let me know! You look and sound amazing but I never travel to New Mexico

Anyway, to update-- I got the plan B within 2.5 hours. I got the generic version which the pharmacist told me was just as good as the name brand, the only difference is that it's split into two dosages taken 12 hours apart. This helps keep the nausea down so the lady in question doesn't get knocked on her tail from such a massive dose of hormones. I didn't have any symptoms except maybe a very slight stomachache in the morning when I took the second dose.

I'm still bothered by the whole damn thing, but it's life, I had to go get an STD checkup anyway, and I've certainly had accidents in my personal life-- never a busted condom though. I'm happy to take several lessons from this about condom-useage. I now have regular magnums and extra-large. And I'll know better about massage oil versus KY.
And, no doubt, I'll be checking and rechecking for air bubbles and breaks.

I wanted to say though that I never expected this outpouring of support. I know it's not really a "big deal" in the grand scope of things, but it feels like a very big deal to me. I've gotten several emails from hobbyists and providers alike, and while I know I said this in an email, I'm not sure if I said it in this thread:

To the eccie community who offered their support, I never thought that this thread would grow so big, or be filled with so much sympathy, helpful anecdotes from your personal experiences, and just general goodwill. I really wasn't expecting that, and I appreciate the consideration ya'll have shown. I really needed it, and I know I was cringing that I would be painted with some sort of smut brush.
So, thanks

Also, I think I may have handled it too well and so he doesn't think it's a big deal. I'm glad I didn't worry him since I assured him about the Planned B, but still- you know? We both have sex with other people.

So yeah, I'm not mad or scared or anything extreme, but my equilibrium is disturbed and dealing with uncertainty is never really what I'd consider fun,
and this is the type of uncertainty in terms of STDs that I'm going to have to go through several rounds of sex testing before I feel absolutely sure, and I just hope that he does too.

Low volume or not if I was inside a provider bare I would be running to the clinic just like you. In fact I go to the health department for a free screening just because I am active, and condoms are not 100%. You can never be to safe, but unfortunately things like this happen, and you are forced to deal with it.
I hope this turns out to be nothing, but a bad experience for you. If you have a good feeling about this guy, take his word for it.

Up to now have only lurked on this site.
I would like to point out that only water soluble lubricants are compatible with latex condoms. I have met a least one SP who did not know this and would use petroleum based lubes with condoms. A definite No-No.
Just my two cents.
