The Cryer, The Wheezer and The Pleaser

I used to date a guy who would cling to me and cry after we finished having sex. Correction: after he finished having sex. I met him when I was 20 and in desperate search of my very own Jordan Catalano. This particular cat fit the bill. Damn was he sexy.

There I am fooling around with him in his apartment.. one thing led to another and before I knew it I'd had sex with the third person I was to sleep with in my life. Yes, I count. Yes, each man I've been with has a number. Yes, I can count every man I've ever been with. Cory? He was number six. Chris? Number eight.
The girl? Number nine. ANYway. Sex with "Jordan" was okay. I didn't know much about the whole shebang (ha ha.. get it? she-bang?) at that point so the fact that I didn't orgasm wasn't weighing heavy on my mind. What did weigh heavy? When he clung tightly to me and began to cry into my crawling skin. It wasn't a manly cry either. There was whimpering, my god there was whimpering. And snuffling. I lay there, stiff as a board, staring at the ceiling.

Maybe I'm THAT amazing, I thought. I reduce men to tears. Suffice it to say, he whimpered every time he ejaculated. It was a morale breaker, not to mention a dealbreaker and I determined to move on, resemblance to Jordan Catalano or no.

Enter The Wheezer. He was a tad overweight. I rationalized that he was stocky. He used to climb aboard and wheeze in conjunction with his function if you know what I'm saying. Every thrust was accompanied with a wheeze that sounded as if he was in a hospital bed breathing through a respirator. Still, the wheezing was a smidge better than the crying and so I learned to block it out much the same way I blocked out the Vienna sausage size of his member. Obviously, that relationship didn't last.

I tried to learn from The Cryer and The Wheezer. I did. My next relationship was with The Pleaser. "Tell me what you want me to do." he'd whisper breathily. "Do you like this? What about this?" "How does this feel?" I imagine he fancied himself some sensitive Lothario in tune with women's needs. I could never focus, I was always being troubled to answer him and reassure him that yes, that feels good. Yes, you're doing a super job.

Eventually, after numerous letdowns and a brief stint with a guy who failed to realize there were two of us there in the bed I found a nice medium. And his personality was great too. No crying, no wheezing and a fella who concerns himself with my concerns but also knows how to do his own thang without constant reassurance. But I often wonder about my Mormon friends who chose not to sleep with their man before marriage. What if they get a cryer, a wheezer or a pleaser? What then? That's a long row to hoe, yo.

"There was whimpering, my god there was whimpering. And snuffling. I lay there, stiff as a board, staring at the ceiling."

Maybe it hurt? Maybe he had "blockage?"

Maybe Jordan really wanted Claire Danes?
That was very funny - and so true. I guess they would never know any different. It's amazing what people can get used to.

Monica. google "30 seconds to mars" and click on 'Thanks to all of you who voted blah blah" and look at your boy now.

Jesus Christ that was funny!

I had to think of the "dog", only went there one time and his nickname truly tells it all. Incredible. Who would have thought there's a man who has absolutely NO idea. Washed my skin off after that experience.

LOL! I'd take a pleaser over a stinky sweater any day. My current guy sweats clean through the sheets into the mattress. It stinks!

Good god! What happened to our beloved Jordan Catalano? He wears eyeliner and has chubby cheeks!

Hilarious post. I've been with a few weirdos myself. Did you see Alexander? I thought Jared Leto looked pretty hot. Revived my Jordan Catalano crush even.

Oh Monica, I think I just peed a little on myself!
You deserve that sweet, sexy rocker husband of yours because you, my dear, have paid your dues.

Oh, and I've had my share of disappointing sexual experiences too, starting with the guy who wanted me to talk like Melanie Griffith during sex.

Watch his latest video, he's a screamer.

Jordan wanted Angela.....without a doubt......I wanted Angela as well......
September 15, 2006 | Unregistered CommenterBrian
is it sheer coincidence that you and 'dooce' have written on the same topic today?.....

"and here is where I experience a lot of hand-wringing for all my Mormon girlfriends who got married without ever having slept with their men. It’s admirable, very admirable to enter into the covenant of marriage as a virgin, but what if smack dab in the middle of that first-night passion he starts quoting Al Pacino in Scarface?"
September 15, 2006 | Unregistered Commentersfh
Not coincidence. I read Dooce every day and her post got me to thinking about dealbreakers and the no sex before marriage. It's a topic discussed often amongst my Mormon and non-Mormon friends. I guess it's a similar paragraph. Not intentionally though.

I do not understand who these people are that don't have sex before marriage...what the fuck kind of death sentence are you locking yourself into?

If I brought home every non-returnable piece of clothing that looked pretty on the hanger without trying it on I would have a shit load of clothes in the closet with their tags still on - laughing and mocking me - that didn't fit and are too horrific to pass along to any of my girlfriends to 'wear.'

Try out the merchandise people, for the love of God!
September 15, 2006 | Unregistered CommenterRichelle
Perfect analogy Richelle! I read Dooce too and figured you must have read her post. I think yours is funnier though. Regardless, I cannot comphrehend marrying a guy without checking out the goods first. I can't imagine what the first year of their marriage is like. The first time I had sex was no party, let me tell you. Although on the flip side, it may be kind of nice to explore bodies with each other, just so long as you don't marry a lemon.
September 15, 2006 | Unregistered CommenterGemma
Ha! Dooce fans all around. I have been thinking about this too. Of course, I know very few, if any, of my friends waited. The pleaser, yes, I just got rid of one of those. Shit. Let me concentrate, I can't answer all these damn questions. I also had one like the Wheezer too, but it was more like a football hut (as in hut, hut, hike) with every thrust....

When my brother and sister got married they were both virgins, incidentally they didn't marry each other! LOL They were virgins b/c we read in the bible that it was a sin to have sex before marriage! I think 60% of the reason they got married was so they could FUCK! LOL Even the first time I had sex, I felt guilty, I rationalized it by telling myself I loved him and I would never be with anyone else, crazy huh! As I got older I looked at sex as a way for men to accept me and like me, boy was I WRONG!
Ps..........not sure why I shared all that! LOL

Be glad to didn't fall in love with a pee-er. While I was in college I dated this girl I was mad about. The sex was great. The chemistry between up was perfect. Unfortunately every time she came, she pee-ed. Not a lot but enough to wet her surroundings. It had something to do with a weak muscle that keeps you spilling your water when you get the urge to go.

I couldn't get past it. I wasn't into the golden shower thing and it made oral sex a dicey endeavor, if you know what I mean.
September 16, 2006 | Unregistered Commenterbob
A pee-er! Ever been with a screamer? Sounds like it might be nice. It's not. I could never figure out if she really lost her shit and didn't know she was screaming that loud or if it was all contrived (I had roommates at the time). Either way it was disconcerting, not sexy.

hehe, my HS ex girlfriend was so in love with that guy; as well as Eddie Vedder, back in the day.

I just wrote about this on someone else's blog. I wouldn't want my girls to be slutty (like I may have been) but I definitely dont' want them to wait until they are married and get a huge surprise that my be unhappy!

This is so hilarious. Years ago, I actually dated a guy whose breath smelled like shit. No kidding, not just bad breath, it literally smelled like a turd. And let's just say, my self esteem was so bad that I rationalized that at least when I kissed him, he didn't taste like shit.(Let me clarify, I don't know what shit tastes like, but suffice to say the flavor of his mouth wasn't bad) ok, first time I felt his "member" I was disappointed that it was, 2 1/2 MAYBE 3 inches long fully erect. What a deal breaker. Guys,is this common? It is so very sad! The saddest part,however, is that I still fucked him (or I think I did, who knows, I didn't feel it) Girls are so insecure in their teens and early twenties - unfortunatley that is when most young Mormon girls get married - the thought of putting up with that for the rest of my life is so frightening.
Postscript: Luckily for me, I married the right guy almost thirteen years ago. He is funny, caring, well-hung, and my best friend!
September 17, 2006 | Unregistered CommenterDFW
That’s gross. So what attracted you to him in the first place? Did he have a good “sense of humor”? I wouldn’t doubt it. I can’t imagine a girl putting up with stinky breath and small ding dongs otherwise.

But wait a sec … 3 inches? That’s impossible. I mean I suppose anything’s possible but ... 3 inches? He must have been a midget. Did you use a ruler? I doubt it. You have to use a ruler. You have to measure it the same way you do a proper push up or it doesn’t count.
September 17, 2006 | Unregistered CommenterMichael
DFW: Lawdhavemercy, that's funny, yet tragic at the same time. So glad you found a good one: a hard man is good to find.

PS- Yes, 3 inches is possible and it is a little 'freak of nature-ish'

I don`t know this Dooce Blog you all are talking about can you add the link Pls
September 18, 2006 | Unregistered CommenterSailor Mike
Michael: he was an attractive guy,that's where the attraction started. We're talking about deal breakers, those things that you don't kmow right off the bat. Those things that you later learn you cannot deal with..

and oh yes it was 3 inches. It was as long (and maybe as wide) as the index finger on my left hand, I sort of used it as a gauge - then measured later. I think my disappointment would have been a little too evident if I had whipped out a ruler right there and then....."Hang on a minute baby, let me just...."
September 18, 2006 | Unregistered CommenterDFW
Dealbreakers? Yes. I broke up with this girl becuase she always ate at Mickey D's and Steak n Shake. We dated for 4 months. Fast Food all the time.Everyday. I have no idea why she was still slender...
