Adult friends in a time of infection

Adult friends in a time of infection


Senior Sizzle offered some title choices. This one seemed so relevant to the last 16 months or more. Sexplorations risk infections as everyone knows. With a pandemic you don't even need sex to risk infection. And with more than 600K dead from this COVID-19 virus and the new Delta Variant creating another surge, the threat of infection is very serious indeed.

Infections are not the only barriers for adult friends. How about disabilities? Mine is a neuromuscular hereditary condition that affects gait and balance. Runs in the family. Progressive too. Yet it does not limit or inhibit my sexual<b> desires </font></b>but it has added to my hesitancy in getting out there.

Then there's the barriers of ageism, looksism. And fears and anxieties that cripple our openness, honesty, and joy of living. Infections are not the only barrier to finding and developing adult (sexual, sensual, spiritual) friendships.

So ours is a time of great fear and all too often the hostility that goes with it. But let's not let the reality of infection wipe out the possibilities for affection. We crave touch and sex. I do. But this is a time to use the mind to find the kind of affection we need to express. Mutual masturbation? Cam or IM fun? Corresponding? Yeah, and more possibilities.

Sharing is caring. Infections are real. Affections are the best gifts life has to offer. So I think it's worth repeating: Let's not let our fears of infection kill our capacity for affection. Let's be friends.

So we'll said Ian...friends are what keeps us going now through all this uncertainty. Needless to say, if we lived close, I would treasure a friendship with you. Stay safe!!
