I started on my journey to happiness about nine years ago when I turned 46 and realized that my life was probably more than half over. My situation at home changed, as my wife had become, over 25 years of marriage, my best friend, with our only love making occurring each Friday evening, from the missionary position, with no variation as much as I attempted or suggested toys, oral sex or role playing. For my wife, sex was not that important to her. It was to me.
I began my journey by joining the chat site at Literotica under my Gentle George name. Because I was not very demanding or crude in my profile and comments generally wrote my messages in plain English and had respect for women, I found I was communicating with a number of friends each evening to discuss many subjects, including sexual ones. I also was traveling on business quite often at the time, being on the road at least three to four times a month, which gave me much time to chat on Literotica during the evenings in my hotel room.
I also started a log in order to keep track of my friends --since I usually only knew them by their chat names. The log is just a simple word document listing the user, and information that she has told me about herself. I would sometimes add specific comments or subjects that we chatted about.
I quickly found out, while I enjoyed chatting with younger folks, the age difference between them and me was way too great -- almost a gap in context and language. For example, I would spell out most of my words, writing almost exclusively in complete sentences. The return chat messages were usually quite brief, filled with abbreviations, and sometimes almost incoherent. There was definitely a cultural gap between my generation and the younger generation. For the most part, computers were always a part of their lives. They also thought differently about sex than my generation.
