Do you need a dating do over?
Have you ever been in the heat of the moment and mistakenly said something you wish you could take back? Perhaps you said the wrong name in bed, or blurted out I love you when you weren’t really ready to say it. You have this feeling of dread and you suddenly wish your life was operated by TiVo.
I can tell you that do overs are like Keebler elves, they don’t exist. I believe you can recover and smooth things over, though. Just ignoring it won’t help, it will become like this weird awkward elephant in the room that you can’t really get around. Facing it as soon as possible is going to let you move on quicker and forget about it.
One of my friend sent someone a racy picture and he really regrets it now! I don’t know what he was thinking but I told him to just apologize to her since she was offended. He may have to up his game and show his gentlemanly side even more to recover but I think she may give him a pass if she really likes him.
When have you ever wished for a do over? Is there a situation that you handled really badly and regret how it turned out?

But you were untrue
You had another lover and she looked just like you

Do over, nah, but a learning lesson I am sure. I was indulging in oral games with a nice young lady when I got an urgent call from another. I finished the job, left and went to help (before brushing). Well I helped the other person and was rewarded with a long kiss followed by a look of “MF, no you didn’t” Suffice to say, she was not happy …
Brush and gargle before heading out …

It’s not that I’m not doing it anymore ever..I just feel like I’m not going to have who I’m sposed to be with if there’s already some dude I’m laying in his place. You know that theory about two objects not being able to occupy the same space at the same time.
I want more that just some random booty…..dare I say it I think I might want a relationship.

Oh my – Okay, not trying to be or funny here but all levels of nasty comes to mind. How do you NOT rinse and clean….period? How can you ride around with coochie on your breath? Could you not have prevented the kiss? I mean she had to lean in right? Couldn’t you still smell/taste the coochie? I guess so if she tasted….ewwwwww

Be on the lookout for a serial oral games playa, seen carrying a bottle of hot water, arm & handle baking soda, a light green toothbrush and a can of aerosol with that Indian on it.

Hey, it tasted good. It’s not like it was a bad taste or anything … I mean if you had a cheery in your mouth and it tasted good, you want it to last, correct… Ok, I know it’s not the same as pun tang, but … We are talking about do overs, correct …

Oh my – and you didn’t even just throw a piece of Trident or Dentyne Ice in your mouth on the ride over? Just seems a bit rushed…way rushed like somebody walked in on yall rushed. Plus that once wet cootie glaze turns into frosting after it has time to dry.

I guess I’m wondering rushed as in helping her to lift boxes or something…rushed as in a potential and not wanting to miss a cracked door…..rushed as in she needed her puddy eaten too? I’m just wondering that’s all what could have been so urgent you didn’t rinse. Maybe it was so good you wanted the taste to linger. **shrugs**

I AM….LOL….yeah, it was that level of nasty.
As soon as I read it the wheels in my head started to spinning. Did he have the speaker phone on that he got the urgent message? I mean how are you in the throws of oral and you get an urgent message unless 1.) you have the speaker phone on 2.) cell phone is on the bed close by 3.) you have the phone on you and I would think that’s next to impossible if we’re both naked 3.) Did someone knock on the door and say, hey got a call for you 4) did you have your cell or caller id display visable…..I mean how do you take/get an urgent call or how do you know you received an urgent call during a session that you gotta hurry up and finish? Just wondering…**shrugs**

Celisea, the only thing that I can think of is that with chick number 1 he did the due in hopes of being able to do the real deed.
And that’s when looked up at chick, with glistening wetness on his face and said, “are you ready to see my O face?” Chick rolls over and says naw…I’m good.
Dude is like dammit!!! I’m out. Oh, look, page from chick #2. Let me fly over there real quick and she if she wants to see my O face
..Of course this is only theory. hell if I know.

Orrr, maybe you didn’t get an urgent call and you was just knocking off several in one day and you just ain’t the habit of cleaning yourself afterwards. Okay, I’m going off the deep end here…j/k/b/n/r That’s why he blogged it anonymously…LOL Just having fun folks…it’s Friday work is light.

Ok not defending Oh my, but dang. I think I’ve counted about 4 shots to da body, and 3 to da head.
It was put out there as an honest “I wish I could do it over”. Having said that, it reminds me of a part of a stand-up routine by a comedian named Finesse, he writes for SNL now, back in his BET Comic View days.
He said guys sprung on the good-good know they had days where they would purposely hold onto the “fragrance” after manual manipulations. He said he’d be in the middle of shooting hoops and would take a whiff of his finger (Hey, I’m just telling the story), and be instantly brought back to the moment and find himself trying to wrap up the game to get back to the good-good.
Looks like it happens waaaay more than we’d like to know.
