This week they answer the question, <i><b>Is there such a thing as too much cleavage?</b><br /></i><br /><b>Straight </b><b>Married Guy (<a target="newwin" href="http://www.adultparlourgames.com/">Ben</a></b><b>):</b> I suppose if I thought about it, I could come up with some mythical
creature that has so much cleavage that reading colorful books about its horrible adventures scarred me when I was a kid. Or maybe, there's
some far-away land populated only by women who all wear push-up bras
and Oscar gowns, and if I lived there my entire life, then maybe on
the day before I died, I would walk down the street and finally, for once, not be psyched by
every single breast, every single millimeter of exposed flesh, every
single hinted-at curve and every single erect nipple and think, "You know, enough is enough." But actually, no.
No. There's no such thing as too much cleavage.<br /><br /><b>Gay Committed Guy (Mark): </b>I think it's absolutely up to the woman who's cleaving.&nbsp; If she's comfortable showing a lot, why not--although it might be worth taking the venue and audience into account (some workplaces still have dress codes, right?).&nbsp; Last year I was at a funeral where the deceased's daughter wore a very low-cut dress.&nbsp; I thought it was a weirdly empowering gesture, but not everyone was amused. <br /><br /><b>Straight Single Guy (<a target="newwin" href="http://dailybedpost.com/2008/05/college-confessional-colin-wee.php">Colin</a></b><b>):</b> Is there such a thing as too much chocolate? Too much Shakespeare? Too much fine wine? Men are all connoisseurs of cleavage. To us it's one of the greatest pleasures of life and it should be treated as such. There can only be too much when it's done in a tacky or tasteless way. But on second thought, we always like a greasy burger or a weak beer so don't be afraid to bare some side boob, under boob or even rock a Lil' Kim pasty if the occasion calls for it.<br /><br /><font style="font-size: 0.8em;"><i>Our "guys" are a rotating group of contributors, some of whom wish to

Wow.&nbsp; Someone has gotten in touch with her inner Jackie Collins! As romantic and fantasy-like as these dreams are, they are actually commenting on a shift that is going on in your personality. The gentleman in this dream is standing in for your own male qualities: assertiveness, decisiveness and the ability to bring home the bacon. (Our dreams have this cool way of showing us the different parts of our PERSONality in the form of a PERSON.) The romantic feeling to this dream shows us that you are beginning to become attracted to your male side. Have you asserted yourself recently, gotten a promotion, anything along those lines that you are proud of yourself for? The music and the dancing means your assertive male qualities are moving in harmony with your feminine nurturing qualities. This all takes place in front of a window because others may be seeing this change in you as well. It is also significant that his thumb is caressing the corner of your lips. Thumbs are all about approval or disapproval and the mouth is all about your ability to communicate.&nbsp; It seems that your inner mind approves of something you have recently said. Good job sister! Too many of us gals are afraid to use our male, assertive qualities because we don't want to be labeled as difficult or the B word! I say, if someone calls you that, you're doing a damn good job!<br /><br />Submit your own sex dream for analysis to <a target="newwin" href="mailto:dreams@dailybedpost.com">dreams@dailybedpost.com</a>.

Let's keep the conversations going!</b><br /><br /><i>Hi Dr. Kate,<br />
&nbsp;<br />
I am a 27-year-old female who, up until recently (maybe over the past
year or so), never had a yeast infection. Now, it seems as if I get one
at least once every two or three months! It may sound silly, but I
have recently gained weight and even though I am very clean (I bathe
daily but do not douche or use scented feminine products), I still
seem to contract these pesky infections and I think my weight gain may
have something to do with it. I am just about at my wit's end, and as
I do not have health insurance, I do not have the means to run to
the doc every time I get one. Fortunately, I do work for a medical
call center and a nurse is often willing to call in an Rx for
Fluconazole for me since I am a former patient of the practice she
works for. I am also afraid of building up a resistance to the
medication. Please help!<br />
&nbsp;<br />
Thanks so much,<br />Sick of Scratching<br /><br /></i>Dear SoS,<br /><br />I don't think your weight gain has anything to do with it: unless
you've developed diabetes, yeast doesn't seem to be too strongly tied
to weight. And yeast DEFINITELY doesn't mean you're not clean.<br /> ]]>
        <![CDATA[<br />The first thing to figure out is, are your symptoms truly indicating a
yeast infection? Yes, cottage-cheese-like discharge and vulvar itching
is often a yeast infection--but not always. I would consider going to
Planned Parenthood the next time you have symptoms, to get a
diagnosis for sure--they charge on a sliding scale, so the cost
shouldn't be prohibitive.<br />
<br />
The next thing to tackle is whether your yeast is sensitive to
Diflucan. Yeast is quite clever, and can develop resistance to ANY
medication.
So the Diflucan that you're taking may not be treating the infection,
and instead of a recurrence, what you have is yeast that never really
goes away. The only way to know this for sure is to see the gyno after
being treated, to make sure the yeast is gone--not convenient, I know,
but the only way to really know.<br />
<br />
If you truly ARE getting recurrent, not resistant, yeast
infections--and yeast can be very hard to get rid of--one option is to
go on
prophylaxis for a while. The easiest thing for this is to take a
Diflucan tablet weekly, for three months, in the hope of beating the
yeast back down. You can use a weekly application of Monistat in the
same way.<br />
<br />
Best of luck,<br />
Dr. Kate]]>

Well, Aries, before you get all cocky like us, stop and think for a second: When was the last time you really went after someone you wanted bad, someone you thought you couldn't get? Are you settling to avoid rejection? Do we sound like your shrink yet? Have you called your mother lately? <b>Your New Year's resolution:</b> Shoot for the moon and maybe you'll end up shagging a little star. And call your mother.<br /><br /><b>taurus (Apr. 21st-May 20th)</b><br />When we look at your week, Taurus, one phrase comes to mind: "Charming the pants off." 'Tis the season for you to be getting boo-tay! And it's not just 'cause everyone's too drunk to care who they get lucky with, we swear. You're sparkling like your jacket is lined with Christmas lights, and everyone's going to be lining up to sit on your knee and whisper what they really want for the holidays in your ear. Turns out Santa didn't put out this year--but on New Year's Eve, you can make up for that. <b>Your New Year's resolution:</b> Let it all flow--the booze, the compliments, the sweet talking. Just let it flow. And carry condoms everywhere.<br /><br /><b>gemini (May 21st-June 21st)<br /></b>To paraphrase a line from one of Lo's favorite movies, <i>The Four Seasons</i>: "Your thoughts are like gumballs that just drop down from your brain onto your tongue." To put it less delicately, you've got diarrhea of the mouth when it comes your romantic emotions. <b>Your New Year's resolution:</b> Remove feet from your diet completely. However, you <i>can</i> put a sock in it. Socks are okay.<br />]]>
        <![CDATA[<br /><b>cancer (June 22nd-July 22nd)</b><br />The stars say that "You'll be in the groove and making a move this week." Hey, the stars are a poet and they don't even know it! <b>Your New Year's resolution:</b> Make sure you've got a fabulous party to attend and aren't wasting all that grooviness on dancing with yourself. Oh, oh, oh, dancing with yourself.<br /><br /><b>leo (July 23rd-Aug. 22nd)</b><br />You'll be very popular this week--we're talking Jonah Brothers popular, J. Lo popular, even Chia Pet popular. You just have to get out and mingle. That means going to every New Year's party you were invited to, as well as the one you wish you were invited to. <b>Your New Year's resolution:</b> Party like it's 1999!<br /><br /><b>virgo (Aug. 23rd-Sept. 22nd)</b><br />This week, you'll have more energy than a brand new puppy waiting for his walk. And you know how some people are dog people and others would rather piss on a fire hydrant in public than show a canine a little love? Well, the same goes for you: Your crotch-sniffing, drippy tongue act will be a little much for all the wrong people. But there's one special person out there who's going to just love it, and it's gonna be just like that spaghetti scene in <i>The Lady and the Tramp</i>. Ain't puppy love grand? <b>Your New Year's resolution:</b> If you sense a kindred spirit in the room, go straight for the crotch. And stay off the furniture.<br /><br /><b>libra (Sept. 23rd-Oct. 23rd)</b><br />You are wise to question your motives this week when it comes to love: Self-deception is likely. Whoever you are interested in will probably give you a false impression. Love triangles may cause problemos. <b>Your New Year's resolution:</b> Give up geometry. You were never good at math.<br /><br /><b>scorpio (Oct. 24th-Nov. 22nd)</b><br />In Pedro Almodóvar's <i>Talk to Her </i>(his perviest, most disturbing--yet somehow sweet--film), a man is asked, "Are you single?" and he responds, "Yes, I'm alone." Which is kind of how you've been feeling lately: "One is the loneliest number," and all that claptrap that seems so much more depressing when you don't have a date for New Year's Eve. But maybe your attitude isn't helping. You're not alone, you're number one!<b> Your New Year's resolution:</b> When you meet a hottie, focus on flirting, not gut-spilling. Save the woe-is-me for the second date.<br /><br /><b>sagittarius (Nov. 23rd-Dec. 21st)</b><br />Your daisy-petal-picking technique for making important romantic decisions is getting old fast. Your wishy-washy behavior will turn the person you've been hanging out with running in the other direction. <b>Your New Year's resolution:</b> Grow a spine.<br /><br /><b>capricorn (Dec. 22nd-Jan. 20th) </b><br />Don't be so argumentative all the time. It's the holidays--everyone's too stuffed with turkey and eggnog to give a shit about your debate-of-the-week right now. Can't you just drop all the "issues" for a few days and think about getting laid like the rest of us? <b>Your New Year's resolution:</b> Have another glass of wine and stay a while. Have you ever danced on a bar-top? Now is as good a time as any.<br /><br /><b>aquarius (Jan. 21st-Feb. 18th) </b><br />You know those conversations, four gin-and-tonics into the evening, where the words are slightly slurred but the sentiment is completely sincere? When you tell your friend, "I thought you hated me when we first met!" and she replies "I did!" (Truth serum, dude.) Well, you'll be bonding with people like this all week, except you won't need the Dutch courage. It might result in a brand-new friendship, it might result in a lurve connection, and then again, it might result in a punch in the face. But a black eye lasts only a week whereas true wuv is forever (or at least until New Year's Eve)--so isn't it worth the risk? <b>Your New Year's resolution: </b>Just burn the patchouli incense and tell it like it is, man.<br /><br /><b>pisces (Feb. 19th-Mar. 20th)</b><br />We see someone in your past. Our crystal ball is a little on the hazy side (or maybe that's just our hangovers), but it looks like this someone could be an ex. It's definitely someone you're still a little hung up on. Oh wait...the crystal ball is kind of clearing up a little...man, this someone is hot! It's time you resolved your feelings for this someone once and for all. Best-case scenario will be like one of those Meg Ryan vehicles where you finally figure out you were right for each all along, you just needed time, maturity, and a romantic encounter on top of the Empire State Building. Worst-case scenario will be realizing that life isn't like a Meg Ryan vehicle and you still haven't found your one-and-only. And someone in the middle there is the chance that you'll get to have great ex sex. <b>Your New Year's resolution: </b>Look up that one-who-got-away on Facebook.<br />]]>

And they're all winners! But we only have two copies of Alison Tyler's "<a target="newwin" href="http://www.amazon.com/Never-Have-Same-Sex-Twice/dp/1573443328/emandlo-20">Never Have Sex the Same Way Twice</a>" to give away. It was hard to narrow down, so while there were a lot of good ideas in the comments section of the <a target="newwin" href="http://dailybedpost.com/2008/12/contest-win-a-copy-of-never-ha.php">contest announcement post</a>, we only considered the tips which were emailed in per our instruction (see, it pays to read directions carefully). Immediately below are our two faves (which we're sure some of you will disagree with), followed by the honorable mentions. Thanks for playing!<br /><br /><b>WINNER: </b>Maybe it's just 'cause we love pretending, but my fiance and I keep things spicy by role playing...as ourselves. But as our future selves, or as our younger selves. We'll spend a whole day pretending we met and hooked up under completely different circumstances, but because we don't have to take on totally new roles (I mean, really, I'd have no idea what to do as a naughty nurse, and he's a teacher in real life, so we don't want to bring that into our sex) we find we can be adventurous in a totally comfortable way. One of our favorite things to do is to pretend we are just friends, with secret crushes we're both too scared to admit. We'll spend the whole day, shopping, or taking in a movie or pizza, hinting at our "crush" but never saying it openly. Since we're "just friends" we can't be affectionate as we usually would be, and so by the end of the day, we're so glad when one of us decides to end the platonic relationship with a hot, desperate kiss. During sex, we pretend it's our first time all over again. We love this because we get to feel those nervous first time jitters all over again. <b>-Ashley</b><br /><br /><b>WINNER: </b>The thing that keeps me and my boyfriend glued together, is that even when my libido feels low, I remember that I fancy him. And I think that seems to be the key to our relationship. It sounds simple, because it is; it's so simple, it's something that get's overlooked quite a lot. I'll sit/lie/lounge/kneel there, and just look at him, and think about how attractive he is, and why, and it reminds me that I want to keep him around. So when we've been in a "slump" (quotemarks because the sex is still fantastic) and only been having sex in the same few positions, moods, and styles, I'll remember how it was when we first met, and decide to seduce him again. Not with lingerie nessecarily, but I'll let go like I've been in a drought, and he's a one-night stand, or I'll make certain sly faces at him whilst he's doing something important, or we'll be doing something domestic so I'll let my skirt ride up a little bit more and shift over to him. The kinds of things that you do when you know you need to try a little to get into someone's pants. But rather than going through the motions, I'll think about all the sex I used to have, and what I did then; adding in things I tried out years ago, or making him become slightly unavailable again in my mind. Because that's sort of the point. When I remember that he doesn't have to be having fantastic sex with me, and I don't know if I could have this fantastic sex with someone else - he's raised the bar when I think about some past encounters - it makes me want to have him more. <b>- Laithia</b><br /><br /><b>HONORABLE MENTIONS...</b><br /></div>]]>
        <![CDATA[<br />I have to masturbate almost every night before I go to bed or else I can't sleep... it always leaves me open for more and more sex during the day! It quickly turns out that masturbating is never enough to fill my needs... so I always have to turn back to hubby for different means of sex... because I'm so horny from masturbating all the time! Needless to say, he's usually very happy to help me out. ;)&nbsp; <b>- Micah</b><br /><br />My hot monogamy tip a to always keep thngs fresh by surprising each other! Maybe its by bringing a new toy to bed or cooking a special meal when it is not expected. My boyfriend also sometimes surprises me with a coffee or breakfast if he comes over early in the morning. What a nice treat! <b>- Rebeck42</b><br /><br />Using the brain to focus on your partner, what your partner wants, what you want, to be creative, to think up something you haven't done before or done for a while, but also using your brain to realize that even though the women's magazines say that this is something that&nbsp; "Every Woman Needs To Do To Be a Great Lover," your partner may not want to employ binoculars and penguins.&nbsp; At least at the same time.&nbsp; Men, think with the big head. - <b>Jeff</b><br /><br />I try to never put stipulations on where or when my fiance and I have sex in our home (or around our home).&nbsp; The exception being if the kids are home ofcourse.&nbsp; I didn't realize how important this was or how something so small could matter until I came home with a new computer moniter as a gift to myself.&nbsp; While bending over the desk hooking it up, the moniter I mean, my fiance came home.&nbsp; It started with a "hey baby" welcome home kiss and ending with him telling me how hot I am and saying, "I feel like a porn star!".&nbsp; Those words and the smile on his face is all I needed! <b>- Stephenie</b><br /><br />Printing out a particularly steamy blog entry that you enjoyed, or marking the page from a book that was just too juicy to keep to yourself can be a huge step for some couples--particularly ones involving persons who are a bit more shy in nature, though this is a great approach for all couples in general.&nbsp; Not only are you revealing something more about yourself to the man or woman in your life, but you're also taking a step towards better communication in your sex lives, which is always a plus.&nbsp; You could use these works in a number of situations, like 1) taking that printed entry and using it as your own version of a dirty note for what you want to do to your partner later that day; 2) if you know the person you're with checks their email regularly enough, sending an email of that and tell them what you'd like to do when you see them; 3) reenacting something that caught your interest (just be sure to give your partner a heads up); 4) reading the passage out loud to your partner.&nbsp; <b>-Tori<br /></b><br />]]>

In the new year you can find us at <b><a target="newwin" href="http://emandlo.com/">EMandLO.com</a></b> -- be sure to bookmark it! </i></font><br /><br />Okay, we know we told you <a target="newwin" href="http://dailybedpost.com/2008/12/advice_how_to_navigate_the_cra">not to impulse-shop for a significant other</a> at this time of year (a puppy is for life, not just for Christmas, blah blah blah), but we also know what the combination of mistletoe and eggnog does to people, which means that 'tis the season for ill-advised one-night stands. Thus, we thought it was a good time to remind everyone to mind their one-night stand manners. Last month we told you <a target="newwin" href="http://dailybedpost.com/2008/11/how-tohave-a-onenight-stand.php">how to <i>have</i> a one-night stand</a>--this month we'll tell you how to <i>leave</i> that one-night stand.<br /><br />So, this guy friend of ours once took a brand-new ladyfriend home on New Year's Eve. The connection was immediate, the ensuing flirtation deliberate, the innuendos kinky, the sex kinkier. They kissed sloppily, fumbled with zippers, mussed up each other's hair. It was a perfectly debauched interlude. But in the thirty seconds between rolling over and passing out, this dude experienced that oh-so-familiar panic attack: What will she expect of me in the morning? When he awoke to a hangover and the sun streaming in around nine, he reluctantly opened one eye to check on his bedmate. But she had vanished. The only sign that he'd even entertained company the previous evening was the slightly ajar front door. "I felt so used," he is fond of saying--not entirely ruefully--when he tells this story at dinner parties. "I suppose I would have appreciated a note, but her leave-taking did have a certain dramatic flair." ... <br /> <div><br /></div>]]>
        <![CDATA[Gentle readers, once may be a good story, but twice could deliver a
serious ego blow, so we cannot in good faith allow you to sneak out
merely to spice up dinner party chatter the world over. When a fling
fails to linger for the free morning coffee, it leaves the impression
that the previous night's performance was sub-par, or that they had
buyer's regret. Therefore, the well-mannered lady or gentleman always
makes a graceful exit from a one-night stand.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
Once the sun has come up on casual sex, some form of acknowledgment of
the previous night's dalliances is required. You don't have to go out
to brunch with the <i>Sunday Times</i> crossword--in fact, that's more
intimacy than most one-night stands can support. On the other hand,
leaving without saying a word makes a bigger deal of the situation than
is needed. A brief period of friendly banter and a self-deprecating
joke for good measure is ideal. But if you simply can't bear to wake
the <a target="newwin" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FL4DC3hlTsU">coyote</a>
who snores next to you, then it's only good manners to put all this (friendly banter + self-deprecating joke) in
a saucy note (sans phone number) left on the fridge, dresser or pillow (but if you opt for the pillow, your note must contain irony or risk being interpreted as romantic).<br />
&nbsp;<br />
And <i>never</i> abuse the home team advantage: While you may make a
stealth exit from your partner's bed so long as you leave a note, you
may never request, during the denouement, that your partner vacate your
pad before daylight. And a gentleman or lady always offers their guest
a cup of coffee or tea before showing them to the door and giving them a sweet kiss (sans tongue) farewell.<br /><br /><font style="font-size: 0.8em;"><br /><i>For more on one-night stands, check out <a target="newwin" href="http://www.amazon.com/Em-Los-Rec-Sex-Z/dp/0811852121/emandlo-20">Rec Sex: An A-Z Guide to Hooking Up</a> and <a target="newwin" href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0452285097/emandlo-20">Sex Etiquette for Ladies and Gentleman</a>--both by yours truly, natch.</i></font><br />]]>

        <![CDATA[The end of the year (and the beginning of the next) is the perfect time to head to your gyno for a check-up, if you're due for one. Think of it as getting a clean bill of sexual health as you enter 2009. Here are five things that you should consider asking your gyno about in your 20 minute visit:<br /><br /><ul><li><i>STD testing</i>. Don't assume that you'll get tested for "everything." Your gyno can do cervical (or urine) cultures for chlamydia and gonorrhea, vaginal tests for <a target="newwin" href="http://dailybedpost.com/2007/09/trich-is-no-treat.php">trichomonas</a>, and blood tests for HIV, syphilis and hepatitis--all upon request.</li><li><i>Pap smear need</i>. Unless you've had a recent <a target="newwin" href="http://dailybedpost.com/2008/10/what-does-my-pap-smear-mean.php">abnormal pap</a>, you can ask your gyno if you really need one. The latest recommendations call for a pap every two to three years.</li><li><i>Period relief</i>. If you're beset with awful cramps or heavy bleeding every month, ask about ways to improve your periods. It may be a birth control prescription, or as simple as a high-dose anti-inflammatory medication.</li><li><i>Contraception</i>. Ask for a prescription with enough refills of your pill, patch or ring to last you the entire year. Your gyno can give you a script for a three-month supply at a time that you can mail in to save money, if your insurance company offers this option.<br /></li><li><i>Prescriptions</i>. If you have <a target="newwin" href="http://dailybedpost.com/2008/06/how-you-know-herpes-testing.php">herpes</a> or recurrent <a target="newwin" href="http://www.4women.gov/faq/vaginal-yeast-infections.cfm">yeast</a> infections, you can get an advance prescription for acyclovir, Valtrex or Diflucan to have on hand for your next infection. <br /></li></ul>And if you have a lot of questions, bring a written list. It's normal to completely forget your concerns once you're shivering in that thin gown.<br /><br /> ]]>

This week they answer the question, <i><b>If your partner gave you a serious striptease with a serious striptease face and cheesy music, would it really be the best present ever or would it be kinda weird and uncomfortable?</b></i>:<br /><i><br /></i><b>Straight Single Guy (Max):</b> <br />A serious striptease requires two things. First, there cannot be cheesy music. Barry White makes me laugh. He does not turn me on. Traditional "sexy" music like that isn't very serious. Using it would probably just be weird and uncomfortable. Give me my favorite music, or perhaps <i>our</i> favorite music. Second, just like a strip bar, I cannot be allowed to touch. This means that I must be tied down, pinned down or somehow unable to simply grab her once she begins to undress. (Unlike a strip bar however, bouncers are a bad idea). The whole appeal of stripping is the tease, and we men have very little self control. You know this: Once one piece of clothing comes off, we're prone to rip the rest of it off as well. A striptease where the timetable is entirely decided upon by the girl stripping... Yeah. That could actually be the best thing ever.<br /><br /><b>Gay Committed Guy (Terence): </b><br />
I gotta go with an emphatic no on the partner striptease. I feel terrible about it. I should be thrilled by the idea, right?. Then I think, what if my neighbor did one for me? Oh yeah, that'd be hot. So my rudimentary scientific method tells me that stripteases get me going when I don't know the person all that well. Then again, when I think of my boss and a couple co-workers whom I don't know all too well, I come up with a&nbsp; revised theory: stripteases get my juices flowing when I don't the person all that well, but want to get to know them in bed. That's it. With my partner I'd be, like, oh please. But now here's a little twist. If my partner were to seriously strip my clothes off me with or without a serious face and cheesy music, I'd probably cream my pants before my socks got pulled off.<i><font style="font-size: 0.8em;"></font></i><br /><br /><b>Straight </b><b>Married Guy (Matt):</b><br />I think it depends on the partner. If my partner was super embarrassed, I would probably find it super embarrassing. If they felt empowered and just went with it, it could be hot, I guess. The biggest problem with these things--for me, anyway--is that it immediately makes me think of something women learn from daytime TV...you know, "10 Sure-Fire Ways to Spice Up Your Ice-Cold Love Life" and so on.&nbsp; An ex-girlfriend of mine once dressed up in lingerie to surprise me with a little routine, but it was during a very depressing point near the end of the relationship, and the whole thing just felt a little sad and contrived. So maybe that experience has soured me on the concept, but it's not a fantasy I'm particularly yearning to live out.<br />

But for the past 2 or 3 nights in a row, I've dreamt my boyfriend (almost fiance) and I are in the process of splitting up (it's never been clear if we've actually made the split, or are still discussing it).&nbsp; Always, I'm in a situation where my boyfriend isn't there, and I have the urge to have a one-night-stand (or one-quickie-over-lunch-stand) with a really attractive person. I know the people I want to have the fling with in my waking life, but these are men that I would never consider sleeping with. One is a student (I'm a graduate TA teaching undergrads) and the other is a bad-news-bear of a friend. In my dreams, I either sleep with these men (and it's really good) or I really strongly consider it, weighing the consequences with my boyfriend. I would like to know if this dream has a hidden meaning or am I just dreaming.</i><br /><br />Is she having second thoughts about getting married (or having sex with with only one person for the rest of her life)?

Long distance relationships are never easy and a common byproduct of these relationships is dreaming of cheating or splitting up. Notice how you say that in your dreams you and your beau are "splitting up" and he "isn't there." That's because he isn't physically there with you and you are split apart.&nbsp; Not having your cuddle muffin around on a daily basis - no matter how devoted you are - can make you sometimes feel single.&nbsp; That being said, dreaming that you are hooking up with men that are actually around you does not mean that - deep down - you desire to live true to the lyrics of the old Crosby, Stills &amp; Nash song, "If you can't be with the one you love, honey, love the one you're with..."&nbsp; Nay! It means that there is something about the men that are around you that brings you comfort.&nbsp; One is a friend that is a guy that is around, and the other must possess some quality that reminds you of your boyfriend, or perhaps a quality that attracts you.&nbsp; This is why your dreaming mind chose these two particular gentlemen to compensate for the sweet lovin' you're missing so very much.<br /><br />Submit your own sex dream for analysis to <a target="newwin" href="mailto:dreams@dailybedpost.com">dreams@dailybedpost.com</a>.
