The only couple I know that tried the open relationship thing imploded after a few years. Probably didn't help that he had a micropenis, was an alcoholic and physically abusive and just a lovely person in general. First, they were into swinging, but that was usually him loving other people at clubs and his wife was only allowed to do stuff with other partners if he was included. Anytime he'd go on business trips, he'd gently caress hookers or whatever he could get ahold of. She'd gently caress someone and he'd fly off the handle, etc. Finally ended in divorce as expected and now he has some ugly woman with a NASCAR smile and his ex is much happier alone with their son.

He reads like a stoner who failed beginner's philosophy but read enough to sound "deep" to morons. His ravings sound like stoner thoughts that seem amazing when you're stoned but looking back on it it's really loving dumb.

How does somebody with a micro penis gently caress anybody and what the gently caress had to happen to that woman to have such low self esteem?

I definitely don't know the answer to that micropenis question hahaha. I don't know if you were serious or not but if you were you should know I have a lot of girth and length. Many women have told me that it's too big in fact, but I just have to deal with it. I gently caress all the time, 24/7. There's nothing like being a perfectly normal guy with an average normal penis like I am.

We had a world-ending level speaker two years ago. Dude was an ex-editor for Entertainment Weekly so he was incredibly up his own rear end, and in the course of his talk he compared himself to Spinal Tap, Julia Roberts, and John Cusack. He then tried to close with a slow clap.

I watched that whole loving TED* talk waiting for him to get to some kind of point and then it ended. I sit here still trying to figure out what the gently caress he is trying to say. It's like a mad lib book of 'deep profound thoughts' strung together using a computer. So many words used but nothing said. Should have expected it biased on his writing I guess.

edit: its like the dude watched the onion ted talk to model his speech on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkGMY63FF3Q

It looks like that because the first 40 comments were "recommended by Ian MacKenzie" so hes been sorting through the comments and making sure all the posts that are praising him will show up first.

Once you get past the "recommended" posts, the tone changes

"So… you cheated on your girlfriend because she was infertile? Talk about kicking somebody while they’re down. You can wrap this in as many pretty words and metaphors as you like, but at the end of the day, all you wanted was a broodmare to push out your crotchdumplings. I feel for your current or future partner."

"Beautifully written, scumbag."

"What a douche."

Oh, church? Church is pretty normal. Hell, last time I tried it I only had to deal with Lutherans. I'm happy to hang out with them, they're fine. I'm talking about repressed guilt, weird, confused sexuality, and emotional immaturity that comes believing lust and attraction is sinful and God is always watching and judging.

Every conservative religious girl I've ever dated has been pretty stunted and sheltered.

Yea but the chicks that had a super religious upbringing may be down for buttsex because they heard that they're still virgins after taking it in the pooper. Like all things in life, there's a trade off.

I can't find it, but the best comment I read pointed out that despite all his musings and words, Ian knows less now at 35 than he did at 25.

That's the kind of thing that would sting him, I believe, since he seems to have some fixation with getting older.

Some comments are not so kind. They see the portrait of a man who broke his vows and deserted his wife when she was most vulnerable. Others believe the story nothing but the navel-gazing narcissism of a lost millennial, unwilling to commit to true love. (One Twitter user was kind enough to send me a photo of a flaming garbage can and tell me it’s a self-portrait). And another wrings her hands and demands “Who is the hero of this story and who is the villain?”
