Not to mention, "Hey, baby, wanna see my hose?"
I just knew, just knew, the way this thread was going, that someone was going to say that.

But I really thought I was going to be one of us guys (or maybe Babette).

You've all given me some good laughs!

Anyone had sex with their mask on?

I don't know that I'd PLAN to do that, but maybe if I was approached the right way in the middle of the night or early in the morning, I might just leave it on... I dunno. Hasn't happened yet.

Does seem to me it would be a PLUS to increase the airflow. The experts tell you not to hold your breath and to keep breathing to increase... uh... pleasure.

Do you think panting would burn out your Xpap?

LOL,

Why, oh why, am I not surprised that it was you, dear, who dared to raise this question? No, it hasn't happened in my house, but the possibility has occurred to Darthricky.....can't quite tell if he's serious or joking.....and not sure I want to know!

Now I'll be spending the night trying to avoid the nightmare of a masked gal attempting to ravage me... while I'm dreaming of thrusting my pole hard... to cast my line to the far side of the pond. And I don't go fishing anymore. Hmmmm... I should have kept that tackle box and the rods and reels.

This had me laughing out loud!!!

It has been a LONG time since I have dated. In my dating days I would not "sleep" with a man for fear I would kick him out of bed with my RLS or snort like a pig repeatedly all night. Having to wear a mask seems less embarrassing to me.

Don't know how I missed this post. Let me describe myself a little first. 49 and divorced 2+ years ago. Large but strong. kind of like an out of shape football lineman. I have been looking for my match about the same length of time and have made many female friends but haven't gotten romantic with any so far. But all my friends know someone with OSA and I don't think the Machine is going to stand in the way when I finally do find that lady, since they are all glad that i have found the solution to my sleep problems.

I am not one to take someone to bed quickly and I am sure they will be informed of my OSA long before that happens so i need not fear embarassment form it.

As to others, I particpate in a religiuos retreat where all the men sleep in a baracks like environment. We have a snoring and a non-snoring room, I can now choose the non-snoring. I usually show my mask to the others so they do not think i am being attacked during the night by some strange arachnid. I also go into the snoring room and talk to them about sleep apnea and ask if they have been tested and such offering my help if they want to try to become hoseheads.

To Babette, Yes many times i have felt that i will grow old alonebut that doesn't stop me from searching and with Gods help i may find that special person who takes me warts and all.
always a hosehead, almost a hoser.

DANG IT ALL! Is THAT what my late husband had? RLS? I just thought it was deepseated anger. That man used to rabbit kick me out of bed repeatedly... At first, we just had his little double bed, and he was 6'4" and used to sleeping diagonally on it. I crawled in, and at some point in the night, I'd feel those Big Ol' Size 12's on my butt and BOOP! there I was, eating carpet.

I quickly moved upstairs to the spare room. He didn't much care for that. We compromised with a couple of twin beds we scrounged from his parents. They were different heights. We piled up blankets on the shorter one, to bring the mattress levels up to each other, and tied the legs of the beds together, and each kept to their own bed, and we met in the middle for mating rituals. Worked pretty well. But getting the REAL king size bed was heaven...

Oh well, he died of something completely different many years ago. RIP Cool Breeze! Be thankful you're not alive today, or I'd be forcing a mask on you!

LOL,
B.

HA!!!! Give me 27 again or 28 again.........any time!!!!!!

If she's past her use date -- where does that leave me???? I'm 30 years past date!!!!!! I must be realllllllly moldy.....

I cracked up yesterday at the state fair when I looked at the date they were carding for buying a brewski......Aug 29 1989......I thought to myself -- "Self, you were 39 and drinking for 15 years before these kids were even born".....Wow. Scary!!!!!

Oh well....My brain says 25, but the body says, "Yeah dude. Give it a try".......



cheers

Babette,

i can honestly say, without hesitation, that if i was single and looking, xpap would absolutely not interfere with my getting to know someone and certainly once the relationship had moved to another level, there is no way it would get between me and someone i chose to become romantically involved with (obviously, i mean that figuratively...not literally babs, you cheeky girl)
oops! i just re-read this post and i realized that i sound like i'm saying that being on cpap MYSELF wouldn't be a deterrent...that sounds so lofty and superior! no no no, i meant that if the other person was on cpap (even if i knew nothing about this therapy), it wouldn't stop me from getting to know him if he was worth knowing...sorry

If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got...

It's not a BAD pic, it's just dark, and you're not smiling. I KNOW you can smile.

LOL,

Okay, enough speculation. Someone go post a Craigslist ad and mention they are on Xpap and report on the replies.

Not me!
