Gentlemommy Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 :001_huh:Dh and I are so very vanilla. Or rather, *I* am, perhaps he'd be open to something more adventurous...anyway, after reading the Fun TeA thread, I realized I don't even know HOW to have a strange/interesting teA experience...I mean the logistics aspect. One person mentioned a park picnic table. And that a cyclist didn't realize what was going on...how is that possible?! Someone else mentioned a nature preserve...so if I wanted to do something like that, do we just go for a walk and then...? Bring a blanket? Do we disrobe completely?!?!:001_huh: or under a sheet? (told you, I am VERY boring!) Same with the car. HOW? I am trying to figure out logistically, and it. Does. Not. Compute. Lol.

DawnM Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 My local moms' group went out late one night (I was not there) and when they were in the parking lot trying to get to their cars there was a couple drinking TeA right on the hood of the car! They even smiled at them and said, "Hello" and laughed! I can't imagine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnnaM Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 If we can manage to find any place that our kids aren't that would be a miracle in itself.

Munchkins_mama Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 The most exciting we get these days is in the bathroom instead of the bedroom while the kids are awake. I say 'in the bathroom' because that means there are two locked doors in between. haha! I always wondered about the logistics of brewing teA in the wild too. What do you do about 'clean up'?

LittleIzumi Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I hear you on the logistics. Word of advice. Check for mosquito activity before any outdoors adventures. *cough* We don't really have anything adventurous with kids around.

Dory Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I can't bring myself to do anything outdoors. I've thought about it, but I just can't. The concept of bugs and dirt getting where it shouldn't be (or I don't want it to be) is enough to slow me down. As for adventure. My dh and I have played a game or two of 'red light green light' as we go through the city at night after a date. I've also made his long drives enjoyable (although I sometimes wonder if that's safe to do to a guy while he's driving). If we are in a semi public place, yes a skirt and no skivvies is a necessity. That's also is part of why we don't do it. I can't wear skirts anymore as my legs are a little too scarred. Sometimes adding to the excitement doesn't mean having to go all the way in public. Sometimes brewing the tEa a little before hand is a good idea :D. There is a book called "101 S*xy Dares" that's pretty good (star added by me of course). We didn't use it the way the book said to though. I looked through a bunch at a time and picked ones I was comfortable with. There were some great ideas (and some not so great) in it.

mothergooseof4 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 You can get something like this :D (In the interest of full disclosure, I cannot vouch for this game as I do not own it. I just like that it exists) :D We have and enjoy this game. There are a few cards with things that we thought were inappropriate, such as "share a story about an encounter with a past partner" that we took out of the pile, but anything that you are uncomfortable with can be removed. I left many cards that we were nervous about because we have never tried them, but didn't have moral issues with and they have provided some great experiences and some laughs. TeA should be fun! I would like to encourage all of you shy ladies to try something adventurous. Your dh is only supposed to brew TeA with you, make it some AWESOME TeA!
