Kink 'n' Ink

In roughly 51 hours it’s 2011.
Which leaves me just that amount of hours to look back on 2010.
A year with ups and downs but in all a year that ended quite well for me.
I learned a lot, taught others a lot and really came that much closer to how I want my life to be.

When it ended I just didn’t want to go home.”

The quotes above just describes the entire experience I had yesterday during the The Usual Suspects Unconference (TUS).

First of all a HUGE thanks to the facilitators of what I can already call the best conference I’ve ever been to in my life up till now (TUS 2011 might beat it, hahaha).
Second a HUGE thanks to all the people that where there during the day, I think it was a grand total of around 50 / 60 people that participated and I feel proud and honored to have been one of you guys.

So, the talk was talked…

And we decided to part ways on the road of lurve (does that sound corny?).
It’s a bit painful especially since I really liked this guy, but I know I just can’t do it.
He had the same issue, noticed I was a bit reserved and after about an hour of talking we decided to just remain friends and watch gorey horror together. We’ll see if that even happens, but at least there’s clarity now.

Yes, it hurts, but I’ll survive.

So, about a few months ago I started dating a guy that I actually rather like.
Went out a couple of times and he’s a great guy.
As always I’ve been up front about how my life works. The weird love life (I’m not only Poly, I’m also open, yes, I have fuckbuddies ), the kinks, the whole 9 yards.
He understands every bit of it but after a few weeks of dating we did have to address it. See, here’s where it gets sort of complicated; he’s mono and more vanilla then kinky (why do I keep falling for these guys!?). [...]

So, before the big crash of ’09 I did an interview with my college newspaper. The article appeared somewhere in november ’09 and I realised I’ve never put the picture and article up here.

Bad Seska!

At the botom of this post I’ll attach the picture and original article. It’s in Dutch and right now I’m too lazy to translate it, sorry about that for you non Dutchies.

Last week I got contacted by the same college paper and they asked me to participate in a special issue they are releasing about Taboo’s.

A friend of mine will be talking about BDSM and they asked me if I am willing to talk about being polyamorous. Since I love grabbing any opportunity to enlighten the students of Amsterdam ofcourse I said yes.

The interview is tomorow and I’m hoping it will break some more ground for the non conventional relationships that this planet inhibits
