I don’t consider myself to be skanky or kinky, but I did try a threesome last week – and I liked it. I think you might like one, too. Allow me to explain. A year ago, I joined Toastmasters to help me prepare for my first TEDx talk. Iâve definitely become a better speaker. But there were several other unexpected benefits to joining Toastmasters. Iâve also improved my leadership skills and made some new friends. One of my fellow Toastmasters approached me last week to join her for a threesome.
Join me for a threesome?
“Joan” is divorced and dating online, and one night after our Toastmasters meeting, we were talking about my favorite topic – dating. The following week, she told me she wanted to set me up with a friend. She thought we’d have a lot in common, so I said yes.
She called the next day to tell me that he agreed to meet me, and would I like to get together for dinner â all three of us. A threesome? At first I was taken aback. Wasnât this supposed to be a setup for a date? Shouldnât it just be the two of us?
But I gave it some thought. First dates can be awkward, especially blind dates. I had gone on so many uncomfortable first dates in the past year, maybe a threesome would be fun!
Come from a place of YES in dating
I believe in coming from a place of yes, as Bethenny Frankel says on the Bethenny Show. So I said YES to trying a new way to meet a man. The more I thought about it, the more it seemed like a fantastic idea. Less awkward, less like an interview, less assumptions and judgments, more fun.
My intuition was right. We had a blast. And my friendâs matchmaking skills were spot on â Mr. Threesome and I had a lot in common. There were plenty of laughs and smiles and shared experiences throughout the evening. He was nice looking, chivalrous (he treated us both to dinner and opened doors), compassionate, and very involved in his own self-growth â something that has been missing from most of the men Iâve been dating.
I encourage you to come from a place of YES in dating. Try something new this weekend. Get out of your comfort zone. Most importantly, get out of your house! Mr. Right hasnât shown up as the UPS or FEDex guy yet, has he?
What will you do differently this week to come from a place of YES in your dating life?
