God's Little Joke?

OK, this is embarassing.  More so, even, than the bodily functions and distorted self-image posts I have made recently.  I know, I know, I need to get to the point.  Over the past several months, I have felt a surge in my awareness of, shall we say, every aspect of adult females.  Is this God's little joke?  Take a guy that has been obese and seemingly invisible to women for more than 20 years who manages, via surgery and hard work, to lose most of the fat, then pour in a double dose of testostrone and see what happens.   I suppose it is hilariously ironic to be both a bit awkward and, well, feeling particularly frisky at the same time.  No wonder I have been blushing so often lately.

Perhaps you're feeling more alive & awake, RP.

I just hope if the marriage is good, it's your wife who's getting the advantage of it all.  hehee

I'm right there with ya RP... every step of the way!

Yes, changes happen with wls 

Things that make you go...hmm? 

I'm right there with you RP. It scares the s**t out of me to be honest. I'm not sure how to handle these new feelings!

RP,

I've learned this whole WL journey isn't just about the weight......It brings on many more feelings and well..... sexual drive......Somehow we all need to figure things out and work through them.....And hopefully our spouses or significant others can help us......All the attention were getting now that we've lost the weight is messing with our minds and bodies.....We need to focus on what's important to us and what we need.......

Good luck to us all........

This seems to be a common thread among many of us recently - that increased awareness of the opposite sex and those funny little feelings we get....What a ride!

Well, this is a relief to read rather than what seems like mostly "I have no sex drive post WLS" posts I have seen! 

sounds like an unexpected side effect of the surgery
