07 May 04 - 10:09 AM (#1180270) Subject: BS: a strange encounter of the same sex kind From: pussycat A strange thing happened to me recntly - I was kissed by a rather attractive young lady (I'm one too, if you hadnt guessed!!) and havent done that for a while. Prob is that I'd quite like to do it again, but might start getting a bit weird if she doesnt want me to and I push it ... we're in the same small folk group together. any suggestions for action? |

07 May 04 - 10:28 AM (#1180281) Subject: RE: BS: a strange encounter of the same sex kind From: Bill D depends on the 'nature' of that first kiss...friendly or more 'intimate'. I suspect casual conversations would reveal wheher there are more possibilities there..*smile* "You, know, Sally, you really startled me with that kiss the other day......"...etc. |

07 May 04 - 11:01 AM (#1180305) Subject: RE: BS: a strange encounter of the same sex kind From: Dave Bryant 1. Is this your normal sexual orientation ? 2. Do you have any clues about the other lady's - does she (or has she had) have a partner of either sex ? 3. If you answered 'yes' to 1. - does she know - and would it worry you if she did ? 4. Is this just a physical thing or do you think that it could go deeper ? One way is to try and find a similiar situation to the one in which she kissed you and kiss her back. If she does have a current partner, you could be in a messy situation though - perhaps even more so if the partner's male. |

07 May 04 - 11:22 AM (#1180345) Subject: RE: BS: a strange encounter of the same sex kind From: Deckman I've got a couple of comments that might helpful. Recently, my Bride Judy had a similiar experience with her longest and closest and bestest girl friend. The lady and her husband hosted our wedding. In that case, I suspect it was simply a spontaneous sign of affection. In my own case: My late Father and I always kissed on the lips. This may startle some, but that's they was it was. He was Europeon (Finnish) in background and it was common in his family. I've also read that the late Lyndon Johnson always greeted his Father the same way. I'm sure this is just another example of a cultural habit that is, unfortunatly, changing with the years. CHEERS, Bob |

07 May 04 - 11:30 AM (#1180358) Subject: RE: BS: a strange encounter of the same sex kind From: Ellenpoly This actually happened to me many years ago as well. I wasn't interested, though now after so much time, I'm rather sorry I didn't take the opportunity to experiment at least to make quite sure I had made the right choice (I always suspected life might be a hell of a lot easier if I had stayed within my own gender, but alas, I am addicted to men in beards). But I did talk with the girl who made the overture to ask if I were correct about her intentions. I was correct, and I saw the disappointment in her eyes that it wouldn't go anywhere. Best to approach someone with the same kind of sensitivity you would like to have expressed to you if the situation had been reversed and you had made the first move, yes? If she lights up, then you're on the same page, and good luck to you both!..xx..e |

But if I was to try to add a musical connection you might consider asking your friend if she would like to work up a duet of Jill Sobile's song "I kissed a girl". |

If you talk about Iraq all the time (important thought the topic is) could either get v. depressed, or v. bored.... In answer to some of the others... well, she's got a bloke, but, so have I. DOnt want things to be too serious - feels like its starting to get a bit embarrasing already, esp. when I've had too much of the wet stuff. SOme quite interesting stories....

I don't think I could ever get used to being called a "bloke", though. :-) Well, maybe I could...Eric Bogle's guitar player referred to me as a bloke one time...'E said, "I like this bloke!" after I had made a particularly notable smart crack at Bogle's expense...I was heckling from the audience. It was a great concert. Eric played "Plastic Paddy" and "He's Nobody's Moggie Now"...hilarious stuff. Are you in the U.K., pussycat? - LH |

You enter "girls kissing" and sit back and wait 2.2 seconds. I picked the tame link. I can find recipes for stewed turnips, too, but no one mentioned it. Seems like interests run in other directions...*grin* (and if MY feeble old memory serves me, ½ of the women I have ever known well enough to discuss the matter (in the last 40 years) had expressed some interest in other women...and several others made oblique references. I think it's simply a 'safer' and more open topic among women. As long as people treat each other with respect and don't impose, it makes little difference to me.) |

08 May 04 - 08:50 PM (#1181461) Subject: RE: BS: a strange encounter of the same sex kind From: Sam L Pussycat, I think you have to go with your instinct, and find or make the right moment to act on your instinct. Let what you do solve your questions. If you act, it's for the best, if you don't, that's probably for the best. But be very careful, because it's not about sexual orientation--in my opinion when women become interested in other women, they flirt with a very severe sort of sanity. Ladyjean has given me the courage to admit I too am a flaming hetero--I've struggled with this for years, and may never outgrow the damage. |

09 May 04 - 01:50 AM (#1181569) Subject: RE: BS: a strange encounter of the same sex kind From: Sam L Pussycat is not a troll. Not that there's anything wrong with that. I've kissed worse than trolls. But anyway, since Pussycat isn't a Troll, and because I've been monogamous since I was a teen, and haven't kept up with these crazy kids today and their customs, lingo, slang, expressions (Michaelr? huh? get what?) please help me understand this song I heard on the radio today Pussycat. The gentleman sings "I'd go down on my niece, and kiss the ground that you walk on baby, if I could just hold you again." Well. I don't understand if this, I think, unusual declaration is something that his lady friend would... okay let me start over. Is this, now, typically, something that is understood to express a persuasive degree of devotion? To be clear, I'm familiar with the figure of speech about kissing the ground that one walks on. Still, the sense of this apparently earnest lyrical figure eludes me. |
