done something really sentimental for your SO? Something that is borderline silly?

When you were in school do you remember making "mixed tapes" for your friends/crushes/girl or boyfriends?

Me and my gf got together at Valentines day and made our bfs a mixed CD...it was all for fun.

For my birthday my bf made me a mixed CD..which I love to listen to

And my dh made his gf a mixed CD and gave it to her last week for fun.

I made my bf another mixed CD because soon he'll be doing some traveling and I wanted him to know i'd miss him and i'd be thinking of him.

I gave him his CD and last night we listened to it together. He really liked it.

I was just wondering what kinds of things others do to keep them on their SO's mind :o)

>>> Any reason why this question is on the "Taboo" board rather than the "Romantic Reflections" board? <<<

Yes, there is. There's a very good reason, or several. But . . . umm . . . hold that thought; I'd like a cookie . . .

Whatever works for you I guess, you just seem to spend a lot more time talking about your bf than you do your husband.

that's because my bf is the "taboo" part of my life that I can't share w/just anyone. I always have to hold back but here I feel perfectly comfortable talking about him so I take this opportunity to get it all out...

Believe me, I love my dh very much and we have a wonderful life together in all aspects.

The word "SO" in my question was just a general term as not everyone is lucky enough to have 2 people who love them and who they love back.

I know this is hard for a lot of people to understand...and i'm sorry that more people are not open to understanding it because it really is a wonderful thing.

I feel comfortable here on the Taboo message board because i'm not judged..I hope that hasn't just changed.

"I feel comfortable here on the Taboo message board because i'm not judged..I hope that hasn't just changed."

Not at all Dolphinchic....I think it's great what you have!!! It's also understandable how you talk about your BF since this is one of the few places you can do it without that direct judgement.

There is different levels of taboo that people are comfortable with...I bet there are some lurkers out there..that feel taboo for just coming out here and reading messages on this board...but they are welcome and not judged for just looking or maybe not acting out on some of their desires!!

Thank you for saying that Lucky! I feel much better now. I just didn't like the vibe I was getting.

coming out of lurkdom...........to let you know no judging going on here. Love to hear about the things you have to say. I am in a similar situation (but just soft at this time) with DH and another couple. We have been friends for a long time. Just reading your posts helps me put things in perspective. So I hope some stupid remark doesn't keep you away!!
