The truth is, most women do. I think horny is a permanent condition with most men so I’m not sure about their standards.
This was the topic of conversation with a few of my friends while we were waiting for a meeting to start last week. One woman, we’ll call her Cheryl because she’d kill me if I wrote her real name here, said that since her divorce she hadn’t been dating much and she was really craving a bit of intimacy. We all gave her some advice and then Barb spoke up.
“Lower your standards, honey, get a little and you’ll be just fine,” she said.
The rest of us blinked and said, “lower your standards? ewwww.”
“She’s not going to KEEP him, she only wants to borrow him for a little while and well, he doesn’t have to be a brain surgeon like her ex in order to be loving and passionate in the sack,” Barb replied.
You know, there’s probably something to that. One night stands have never been for me. Maybe it’s my upbringing or my genetic makeup but for me, if a guy is worth sleeping with, he’s worth more than one night. That’s why I had difficulty with Barb’s suggestion to Cheryl. I realize that it’s MY perceptions and what’s right for ME that’s coloring my opinion.
Would you drop your standards if you really needed an intimate cuddle?
