attention whore

We call our dog an attention hound - except we use the word whore when the boys aren't within earshot.  He nudges and nuzzles and pushes and follows and will do just about anything to be petted and paid attention to.  He is beyond persistant and he is shameless.

And i wish i could get away with all that too. 

I am a greedy little thing - i want more and more - more contact, more time, more touch, more containment, more pain, more arousal, more HIM.  I want to feel him over me, i want to feel his hands on me, i want to sit very quietly at his feet, i want him to push me, i want to moan and scream and cry for him, and i want him wrapped all around me. 

If i thought it would work - i would follow him around, nudging and nuzzling and rubbing myself all over him, i could stare at him with big green eyes - i would even wag my tail if i thought it would work. 

When we've had enough of the dog's persistance, we tell him to "Go lie down!" 

 I could go lie down, or sideways, or bent over, or on my knees, or anyway he would want.

  2. I understand! Have you ever tried "wagging your tail"? It might just work! ;) Sara

    Maybe someone will ask if you want them to take you outside and tie you up!

  5. Serenity,
    They do have the life sometimes.

    Sara,
    I am afraid he would just laugh. Not sure i could stand that.

    SBF,
    They are all so easy aren't they?

  7. GG: Such a lovely post. It made me smile. For the past year or so it has been absolutely impossible for me to follow my husband around. His head has been deeply enmeshed in his work. But, before that I felt just the way you no doubt did as you wrote this post. My husband shared with me that one of our sons said to him, "What's wrong with Mum? She only seems to want to be with you alone."

  8. Vesta,
    Thank you. There are definitely those phases in which i know this would be a very unwelcome approach. I'm learning to read the signs, although writing this and his response to it i think is revealing even more about his likes and dislikes than i knew before.
