So
a few days ago I found this idea. The idea came from Nicole
Daedone's post originally, which- she's brilliant and super
non-monogamous if you've never heard of her. Here is a link to her original post. Reading it will help you understand what I'm getting
at here. After several read throughs, I realize it isn't that clear
without reading her piece. PS: just realized you'll also have to sign up but it's super easy and worth it.
Anyway,
what she hits on at some point is that she's actually more monogamous
than anyone-one man many bodies. And I find myself absolutely drawn
to that idea, but a little afraid too.
So
in dealing with women, and people in general I imagine, (I only find
it really poignant in women probably because I don't date guys) I
find common themes and certain things that are just... the same.
What if that isn't just coincidence or whatever? What if each girl
is just embodying the feminine at that moment and I'm just reading
that? Words are similar, tones are similar, even orgasms can be.
And I savor every moment of it with every woman... even the ones I've
learned to hate afterwards (the one that lied about the pregnancy,
the one that screwed me on rent, etc). Despite the differences women
aren't so different (and yet they are, it's hard to explain) but I
love seeing the quirks and finding the differences as well as the
similarities.
And
it does prescribe a near formulaic way of behaving. Interacting with
women, there's a language going on that can be learned through trial
and error or even faked as any in the “Pick Up artist" community
can prove. That's a topic for another
day. Also, PUA's are douches.
I love women, absolutely. The dance is so joyous. Be strong here, be vulnerable here, be chivalrous here, note what she likes, be ridiculous there, be playful now, now just be genuine. Slowly leading... slowly building the attraction.
As
I foray into what I think I want with non-monogamy I've wondered how
other women would see it if they knew everything. It feels weird
doing some playful thing that I've done with countless others. It
feels almost dishonest. But with every girl the first playful thing
is only the same... afterward, we make our own games. But still...
the same questions, the same things said until I know enough to make
a new game. Feels wrong. But maybe that's why I like Nicole
Daedone's post so much.
I'm
not just mindlessly doing a routine as the Pick Up Artist's do. No,
it's a place holder. “Dork” for now until I find something more
personal for you, until I see how the feminine plays in you. I
suppose it's not so different from sex... there's only so many
positions, can't have a new one with every girl so the beauty comes
in with the differences. And it's so very fun. Exploring the
feminine in all of it's odd little manifestations. Quirks and all.
That lends some comfort. I'm not a man-whore... although I wouldn't
argue terribly hard with you on that. I just love the feminine. My
love affair with the ultimate woman. One woman many bodies.
And
to what end? Where does it go?
I
have much unease as yet. What about the 'love of my life'? Was she
just the most feminine I've found so far that fit with my peculiar
type of masculine? And not to say I'm the most masculine guy ever,
as my having the “music tastes of a teenage girl” will attest
to-I'm not. But what does that mean? I feel like she was my one and
it could've worked but it didn't. So is this 'one woman, many
bodies' thing just the belief I'm desperately clinging to out of fear
of being alone or never finding my soulmate again? Is the whole idea
of a soulmate just cultural conditioning anyway? And what about the
other one... the one I left for who I thought was my soulmate? <-I'm
a total douche -maybe even PUA caliber douche- I know this. Did
I really find my 98% match and then my 95% match immediately after?
Or was my 95% match really just the glitter of the honeymoon phase
cut short before the glitter wore off? I immediately regret my use
of the word glitter thanks to fracking twilight. Anyway, could I
ever have really had them both? It was discussed and considered
between all three parties.... Damn, and here I thought writing was
supposed to answer questions. Just by the way, those percentages
aren't exact numbers, no such thing with feelings and people but you
get the point with those numbers.
I
guess at the end of it I'm just going to try non-monogamy yet again
but with more vigor this time and without being distracted by a set
of pretty eyes that hold promise of something like a soul mate.
Tried that twice or maybe three times, time for something new that
hopefully hurts everyone less...I can't go through that again... nor
can I drag yet another poor girl through that... And this belief
will be my guiding light. One woman, many bodies. I'm more
monogamous than you because I've only ever loved one woman. My
peculiar kind of masculine finds her and I'm along for the ride. And
she finds me from within different girls... and each time I have to
draw her out amid the shyness, the charming quirks, the random
insecurities, the beauties, and the faults. And I love the ride.
Just like finding an old friend in some random city... that instant
connection like you were never apart. I will see her in you.
And
that'll hurt less than trying to find a soulmate... or my soulmate
will be fine with this... or I'll die alone.....or I'll have 30 love
children all out to kill me for being such a man whore in some
ridiculously convoluted story line with revenge and ninja stars. Any
one of those four could happen, right? Eh, at least it'll be
interesting, right?
One
woman, many bodies.
Yeah...
I'm not sure I believe it yet either.
