ready for love

   Sun, December 7, 2008 - 4:31 PM
i've been laying low with ice cubes on my balls for the past 48 hours. i just had the vasectomy i'd been contemplating for a few years. the idea of fatherhood scares me to death. nothing romantic coming up for me. makes me wanna go aaaaahhhhhhh.

don't get me wrong, i love kids. i just don't need my own to be a fulfilled and happy person. birgit is supportive of my decision though she doesn't share the same resentments i had about parenthood and taking charge of my own destiny.

it's not without a big breath that i'm opening myself up to the ride and commit myself to this new reality. a breath that summons my strength and my experience and let's me have faith in myself and this love i cherish. i know i can do it. i am ready for this step and am raising the banner of love to charge ahead full steam.

Viel gluck mein freund.
I am really happy to hear that you have taken charge of your procreation or lack thereof. I have contemplated it myself quite heavily for a while now, but it's not really an issue since I am with someone who has a tubal ligation already. i echo your sentiment about children. I love kids, I totally love all my nieces and nephews, but it's not my choice, and if it were I'd adopt.

My best wishes to you and Birgit, and may your new adventure in cohabitation be a smashing success. Kinda funny that you both came almost exactly halfway around the world to find another German huh?

I've heard that after vasectomy you have a really intense orgasm about two weeks later, so maybe you have something to look forward to :)

cool sprocket. i haven't been on tribe in ages, and i love it that the thing that popped up first was this broadcast about your vasectomy. awesome. i know two men who love their vasectomies. i consider it a feminist move in that it takes that heavy burden off the woman. it's a great option that's seriously under-used. and congrats on your new love, too. xo

heh - good on you to do as you are moved! SOOOOOOO happy to hear that you and Birgit are now sharing space officially! I just returned to Big I and would love to get together - so much to share... so much to hear! See you on the dance floor. Love to you both.

One of the few brave men
Awesome Sprocket! Not enough men are brave enough to do what you have just done, and very cool that you have made this decision. It definitely improves the sex life. :) See you on Sunday!
