  1. I feel something after one week or less, but it may take longer to get the level in your body to the maximum effective level. By the way, I am not a doctor but I think it is not good to take any of these drugs continuously. Take a week or two off every month or so.
  2. Ok this topic is how I got on this board, looking for ED alternatives to Rx drugs. I am not in the LS. The best non-Rx one I use is called Prelox Natural Sex. Prelox is a proprietary blend of L-Argenine HCL, Aspartic acid and Pycnogenol (dried French maritime pine bark extract), plus Icariin from epimedium (horny goat weed). The Argenine / Pycnogenol blend was found to be effective in one NIH study. Aspartic acid is not for women, and bad for certain conditions. Ask your doctor. Icariin is a pe5 inhibitor like Viagara, but it is 80 times weaker than an normal dose of Viagra. PE5 inhibitor is to block the loss of an erection in progress. I personally have found Icariin to be some value for increasing libido in both myself and my wife. Epimedium is ok for women but Prelox is not. Regarding Nugenix, there are two of them. The one of interest is Nugenix Ultimate Testosterone. I got into this because lab tests show very low T for me. It has all the right ingredients for increasing testosterone temporarily. It is expensive but Amazon mail order is cheaper than GNC. I have taken the required dose but I think half that is about as effective. I feel a libido improvement with that, but nothing to write home about. I also take Cialis on occasion. It works pretty well, but not as great as the television commercials would have you believe. I can state that 20 mg tablet, the effect it has does indeed last at least 3 days and sometimes 4 before it wears off. My insurance no longer covers it so I am getting ready to order some from a Canadian pharmacy because it is absurdly expensive. The insurance companies quit covering it because they think a generic will come out later this year (yeah right) and they would then cover the generic. I am in my mid 60s, and not nearly what I used to be. You young folks, enjoy your life now.
  3. Well, the OP has continued his story on another site. The following is what he says happened. She would not have sex with op when she got back. She said she was worried about STDs that might infect him. She got tested. Twice. Clean. When that excuse ran out, she told him she could not have sex with him because he wasn’t aggressive enough in the bedroom like the black lover was. Also, some physical issue in regards to standing back door position, due to different heights. Latest, they have gone back to having sex as before. In all other respects their marriage is OK. OP would have been resigned to no sex with his wife, because he has a medical issue that makes it difficult, and he wants her to be happy. My theory (not what op says): she fell in love with the African guy and then when she got back she wouldn’t have sex with her husband because she felt that would be cheating on the African guy. She communicates with the African guy and he probably recently told her he had gotten with some other woman, girlfriend or maybe married. Thus wife went back to sex with husband, as doing so would no longer be cheating on the African guy.
  4. I bought my wife one of these Hitachi rechargeable Magic Wands a year or so ago. I never felt comfortable with the idea of having an electrical cord going to the wall socket like the original one. People were connecting these up to lamp dimmers to try to control the speed. The rechargeable one is much safer IMO and it seems very powerful. We have several attachments to it, some of which we have no idea how to use I know it is for women but I admit it feels good to me as well. It also works well for its supposed intended use, massaging sore muscles
  5. Folks, I exchanged a few PMs with OP and there is a lot more to his story than what he posted. I advised him to go to another specific website for support for the particular situation he described to me. Happy New Year!
  6. Hello mncurious, I read posts on this board now & then, but am not in the lifestyle. I think your thread may be a creative writing project designed to suck all the kind folks here into a lot of dialog. But on the slim chance this is real, I suggest you read what I might call "The Saga of Loki and Sif". It is more than 460 posts so it will take at least a month to read it, but as you are not having sex with your soon to be ex-wife, you may have the time. Search on this board for "Emotional & logistical problems of an open marriage", by poster CallMeLoki . In particular, look at their written agreement, which is sort of the Magna Carta of extramarital exploration. If you can't read the whole thing, read the last 60 posts or so to find out how well that worked out for them. Wishing you a happy new year, sir.
  7. Hi PSULioness, I think where you are now was where I was in college in 1973. We did not have or know about STDs in those days. But I am saying you are single and having these sexual experiences. We did then also, but there was no internet to write about it on. I think what is different for you than the swinging people here on this forum is that they are for the most part married and committed to each other for the long term. They have much more at risk to lose than you. You are young and could break up with your BF no problem just move on to someone else. In fact that will probably happen as eventually either of you could meet someone you like more than each other. We baby boomers invented this free love type thing in the 1960s, among the other plagues we seem to have wrought on the country in later years. I wish you both well.
  8. Could you please tell us which Carribean Resort you went to and how you liked the resort?
  9. Well, my name is not Ed. ED is a medical condition I developed around age 60 after having no problem whatsoever for the previous 48 years. I came to this web site by accident while searching for unconventional solutions when the side by side bath tubs medication did not solve the problem.
  10. Thanks to Luvin eye full, machieval55, two4youinswva for making me feel welcome. As it turns out, one of the members here is an MD, and we traded a few private messages about my medical problem and I got some useful information. This member noticed me because of my posts in this thread. Isn't it strange how things work out like that? I will be around for a while longer, but will limit my posting because I don't know anything about "the lifestyle", except what I have read here. This board has a wealth of information for anyone wanting to look into swinging and you don't even have to register to read it. My opinions would be based on my experience and my personality. I may be an overly forgiving person at this stage in my life. It is interesting that so many people are involved in this lifestyle thing. My wife told me many years ago that one of her 2 rules was "no extra people" in our sex life. I couldn't imagine what she was saying could be real because I never knew anyone involved in that and wouldn't know how to go about it anyway (there was no internet in those days). It was easy to agree to her requests. I love her and will never go against her wishes on this. Thanks and happy new year to all here.
  11. OK. My unsolicited advice may be worth exactly what it cost you. But I am older and wiser and I stand by it. You can ignore it if you want. I will drop out of this thread at this point. I am pleased if things do work out for you and you are happy.
  12. Hooray! Keep being honest, and try to use better judgement in the future (e.g. don't sleep in the same bed with a guy on the spur of the moment and expect nothing to happen... get a seperate room in the hotel). You both should realize that there is a significant possibility that you are bi-sexual (which would apparently be an advantage in this particular community) and that you are sexually adventurous, and talk about this a lot and whether it is something he can accept, since you probably can't change this (or shouldn't try). Do not ever do anything like this again that he doesn't know about and isn't encouraging or at least comfortable with. Best wishes to you both.
  13. OK I am glad you read my post. I saw your earlier post as well (TMI!), but that doesn't change my opinion. If you think you're getting flamed here, don't try Reddit/relationships. They would have crucified you by now. I don't have a daughter, but if you were my daughter I would be proud of how you handled this mistake.
  14. I would like to apologize to everyone for starting this controversy. All I wanted to do was tell PSULioness that in my opinion (which some have said it is OK for me to have), what she did (as she stated in this thread) is NOT THAT BAD. If I was her BF, I could forgive her, and go on as before. I would also be OK with her exploring the girl-girl thing further if she wanted to. But I don't think she is still following this thread, so all I am doing is making the rest of you all angry. So I am sorry for doing that. But I will answer your question with an example. If she had met someone on-line and gotten to know them, and secretly exchanged sexy photos on-line, made secret plans to meet up in a hotel with the intention of sex (perhaps claiming to her bf that she was going to a football game as a cover story)... then any/all of these planning and other steps would constitute actively seeking out an extra-relationship affair (a more serious thing if it was an extra-marital affair), and the bf when he found out would be justified in being angry at the betrayal and pulling back to re-evaluate whether he wanted to continue a relationship with someone who obviously was looking for something instead of or in addition to what he was providing. That would be cheating, by my standards. It is the relationship of the cheater to the affair partner that really matters, not the acts (sex or no sex). I would have expected since this is a swingers board, where folks indicate that saying hey, wife and I are going to meet John and Jane Doe in a hotel room this weekend for sexy fun and games... is the same as saying hey, wife and I are going to meet John and Jane Doe on a tennis court this weekend for a doubles tennis match ... we will strictly follow the rules of swinging / tennis ... I would have expected folks here to understand that what she did was an unexpected, incidental, unplanned, impulsive surprise without any harm to anyone really. She loves her bf and would probably unring the bell if she could. I will post an introductory post so that you all can know what I am and why I am here. In brief, I am a man in my mid 60's, married 38 years, not a swinger. I was loooking for information of a medical nature which I did not find, but actually became curious reading the posts here, I knew nothing about the lifestyle before. Too old now, ha! When you are my age you realize life is drawing to a close and you become concerned about how you left things. I have contacted and apologized to almost everyone I hurt or may have hurt during my life. Some forgave me, others didn't. If you all don't want me on here because wife and I are vanilla, I understand and I will delete my account. I don't want to start any more argument like this. Thanks.
  15. Yes cpInluv1. Who hasn't made a mistake? It could be forgiven, I would.
