Oh, I do, Caroline... My discovery came years ago, now, and I've never looked back!

I'd always experienced orgasms quite easily, but nothing compared to the wonderful surprise I received in middle age

How good it is to be able to discuss sexuality with other women!

Caroline, whatever you did all those years back you've paid for with your own pain and remorse about it. Let it go... You have a good marriage, and it would serve no purpose whatsoever to tell you H about something that happened a life time ago.

As for the people who were unkind to you on other forums - let that go, too. They don't know who you are, and when people attack it's more often than not about who they are...

It's a pity you can't get back those beautiful posts of yours, but I'm sure you can continue to make many more. Your posts inspire so many of us, so please keep up the good work.

I'm glad you enjoyed dinner last night!

But if you care about those who have followed you here.... you won't be doing that... so keep your chin up ...and it's NOT about your age.. ..I dare you to fine one post on here, maybe 2 that even references your age in a critical manner...I have never seen it...

I understand you feel this way.. but it is misplaced somehow, it is so not what others are focused on.

I mean that sincerely.

The only age references have come from Caroline.

Frankly, Caroline, your thread gives me hope for the future. Can't you just... sit still and leave your thread alone? We like it.

Caroline, I'm old enough to remember those sexual harassment years, and I totally get the worry (and threat, too) about losing a job. I remember very clearly how, as a struggling divorced mother, I had to resign my employment because of the unwanted attentions and daily harassment of predatory, over-sexed, married boss who made my life hell. I was in my 30s at the time, so not as young and inexperienced as you were when it happened to you...

Let it go, Caroline...

As for age, it's just a number that has little bearing on our capacity to live, love and enjoy life. If some of the younger women ever get to have a tiny fraction of what you have with your husband, they can consider themselves blessed. What is that saying? "Youth is wasted on the young." This was certainly the case with me. I'm a far better person than I was back in my hay day, and far happier, too!

I'm glad that you're going to continue posting. Your words mean a lot to so many of us here.

Carolyn, as someone who is in their mid 40's now and used to think that sex stopped when you reached middle age, I am thrilled to hear that it does not have to be that way.

My husband often says, and I agree, that youngsters have no idea about how good sex between a LTM couple can be. We thought we knew it all when we were in our 20's, but what we had then was nothing compared to what we have now. And the thing is, we know each other's faults very well by now, and I think this just makes the coming together even more special.

I can't wait until all of these kids leave home so we can really delve into our sexuality without constraints. Only another few years, the youngest child is 16 now..

Caroline, what a wonderful and inspiring story!!! I tend to be very cynical about long term marriages (probably because I'm in the middle of terminating my 45 year marriage) but your story is truly heart-warming.

Smiling. Each generation thinks that it invented sex and that no generation before it had a clue. My generation was no exception. Those of us coming of age in the 1960's thought no one before us knew what sex was all about.

I remember well being 20 and the joyful discovery of life with my own sailor. Unfortunately, I didn't marry him. But I'm glad you captured your sailor's heart forever.

Caroline, I'm thrilled that you will continue posting. Never have I enjoyed reading anyone's story as much as I have enjoyed reading yours.

Smiling. There's a lot to be said for being young but there is also a lot to be said for the wisdom we acquire with age. I wouldn't change my age for another pass at being young. No way.

Yorktown that was tied up...Seeing he was assigned to it he was able to get me aboard.....Oh, what a time we had....All of this still a part of our todays.....

We both thought the island was a picture of Alcatraz....The one thing that stumped him was the long bridge...I have to check google earth to see if this is an extension of the Oakland Bay Bridge...You see we never returned...Times changed and once you leave a place and try and go back in time, you find it never is the same...We love our memories as they don't change...

Thank you again for the pictures......My husband commented what wonderful pictures you take...You do....The fish sandwich and fries were enough to send us to a local take out place...and may I add, I am not kidding...

Again my deepest thanks for memories that are etched in my mind..I will visit them often..They make my today my yesterday....My best to you and yours......Regards...Caroline
There were three bridges in my pictures. The Golden Gate, The Oakland/Bay Bridge (runs between Oakland and San Francisco, right THROUGH Yerba Buena island, and then finally the Richmond/San Rafael Bridge which Is the longest of the three I believe.
