Patience IS a virtue . . .

In my most recent endeavors, I'm finding it more and more common that when men want to have sex with you, its now or never. I, of course, DO realize that we are living in a world where everything we want, we get instantly. And that, if we can't get what we really want, a great substitute is within reach. And it will most undoubtedly satisfy our appetite until the real desire is available. But, isn't there something to be said for ... well, waiting...? I know that there are hook-up sites where its like ordering a pizza; you can get exactly what you want and have it delivered to your door in 30 minutes. But what about when what you want is that traditional brick oven wood-fired gourmet pizza that's only available at the hot little spot downtown where you have to wait 30 minutes to get seated and another 45 for the pizza to be made. Its SO worth it, isn't it? Cuz, every once in awhile, we ALL go to that pizza shop instead of ordering Domino's. While growing up in a generation where STI's/STD's and HIV/AIDS are so common, shouldn't we use a little more discretion, a little more often? I mean, yes you can always choose to play safe. But I think there's a little more to safety than using a condom. At least, that's what I've learned. There are things like trust, and getting to know somebody that are also important to being safe. Of course I think some of you are going to say you already know this, and aren't a hoe with a profile on a hook-up site - but even if that's the case, how many times have you met someone at a bar, maybe had a few dates with, or met through a friend - that later after you had sex with them, you found out something about the person that would have made you wary to have ever had sex with them in the first place? I guess what I'm trying to say is: please be safe, honest and kind to those whom you choose to bed. If we all put just a little more thought into it, a little more patience, a little more virtue in the act of having sex with someone - then maybe we'll find ourselves in better circumstances in the next generation.
