It's the time of the season, as they say, and I can't be the only single lady who wants in on the action. Though I haven't had much luck "sealing the deal," so to speak, I do have a select few gent's numbers all of whom wouldn't mind a steamy, late night exchange.
As fun as innuendos may be, it's still a pretty awkward thing to jump into. I know I've had some awkward phone sex conversations in the past where there are long bouts of silence and "um... uh... so"s. It's even more uncomfortable if you haven't talked to the person in a few months.
"Hey, how's the new job? Are you wearing anything?"
There's the classic "what are you wearing?" line, which is pretty straight to the point though I feel that creates even more room for awkwardness. It's almost too direct. Okay, cool. You're wearing cut-off shorts and flip-flops. Alright. Welp... let's get those off.
I appreciate subtlety--a slow ease into a flurry of flirtations. For instance, starting off with "I had a dream about you last night" gets the other person's mind to wander. I'd certainly wonder if it was a sexual dream if some guy texted me that.
Even if I didn't actually dream of any sexy shenanigans with the person, it's a casual enough line to let you abort the operation if you aren't receiving the same restless vibe from the other person.
What do you do or say to purposefully start up a sexual conversation? Do you enjoy sexting or find the whole concept absurd? What's your sexting etiquette?

you have to be a great liar/roleplayer to be good at sexting. one time a guy asked me what I was wearing and it wasn't sexy at all, so I made up an outfit that would sound sexier than what I actually had on. I mean it isn't realistic that I'd be wearing lingerie or something else that is sexy when I'm at home. I asked him if he was naked and he said yeah, but later he said that he lied, and wasn't naked nor horny. but I should've known because he wouldn't be as responsive. I don't think either of us were in the mood when the other wanted to sext, so one of us played along only to realize later that it was all lies! this might happen with actual sex sometimes, too, because both aren't always in the mood at the exact time, so only plays along, although the gesture is nice, it doesn't feel that great if the other one feels compelled to do it anyway to satisfy you even if they don't mind it. sexting can be amusing if both have a way with words and find creative ways to say the usual stuff. it can get boring if it is the same thing. so if the usual positions are missionary, doggystyle and against the wall or in the shower, which is hot, but meh, think of new locations and other positions
I don't really get that into sexting anymore. I prefer to hear his voice actually saying those words. my favorite part is when he reaches the big o and his moans sound like a pleading puppy in heat
then his moans fade away when he's reached the finish line and he curls up in a ball and rests his face on my shoulder rofl that didn't really happen but that's what I think about when I hear the action
it is both sexy and hilarious. I'm not laughing during the debacle but I'm in a dreamy state of *sigh* why is his voice so sexy
I can't really say how it starts, it just does somehow and if it flows, then we play along. if it gets awkward, then it just stops and changes subject or one goes, "ok" or "yeah" and the other is annoyed of the boring one word responses when he/she is flirting, so I won't bother to text him again or vice versa. guys using slang words to sext don't really turn me on. the guy that I liked sexting with lol he was descriptive and I liked how he stroked my ego by describing my body in details as if worshipping every part of my body instead of just objectifying me. although sometimes getting straight to the point is okay. it depends on our mood.
It depends. I don't do the whole, I'm going to touch you there and pretending to respond when he says I'm going to do X,Y, and/or Z thing. I am usually less subtle than I had a dream about you last night. I usually say something like "I forgot to wear underwear today and I think my skirt may have been too short." I then ignore any response they have (or respond with something random like I think I look really good in pink lace) until they say they are coming over.
I find "sexting" just as retarded as cam "sex". Stupid!
Never sexted before, I often talk about sex, generally in a more educational curiosity capacity though. Or I tend to tease people about what they want or like to get them hornier and then just leave it there. If I ever asked what she was wearing and she told me cut offs and flip flops all sexual desire would be gone, but then I hate flip flops and not too fond of cut offs heh. I've told a few people when I dream of them, but they're rarely ever sexual dreams, I feel odd letting people know when I have sex dreams about them.
if i'm in the mood of sexting, i would let him know that i'm in the mood to play or be a little naughty to start off the conversation if he didn't bring it up already.
"I wanna fuck you so bad right now" -personal favorite.
I literally laughed out loud. It sounds so corny!
But I've never sexted. I've always wondered how other people start out and if that line I quoted is something that has happened to you before, than I will probably never be able to sext because I would be to busy laughing.
Also, what do you actually do with those pictures? I can't really see girls getting off on an image of a penis... they're kind of creepy. Just sayin'...
Sexting doesn't really do anything for me. My boyfriend will text me saying he dreamt about me or whatever, and we'll joke around with corny innuendos, but that's just amusing. I don't find any of it a turn on.
"how do you start a sextual conversation?"
It's simple, if you're a chick, send a nude photo, he'll handle the rest.
If you're a dude, say whatever comes to mind. Either she goes with it or she doesn't. If she doesn't, she's too far away to slap you. No worries.
well me and this guy were chatting up pretty late the other night.
him: i like to do late night acitivites.me: like sex?yea... but we didn't sext each other, just talked about it lol.
Lately, I've gotten to be a master at it... what generally seems to work every single time: "I want you sooo hard right now," or a personal favorite, "Someone needs to push you up against a wall, drop your pants around your ankles, and fuck you til your knees give out... just sayin." Tried and true. =}
I had to go back to some of my old chat transcripts (I haven't done any "sexual conversations" that were not in person in about four years) and it seems that all of the sexier conversations started with someone touching someone's thigh. I have no idea why.
Honestly, I have never had any type of text sex. Phone sex a couple times with my now-husband, but that's it. Reflecting, some guys might have been trying to set things that way when I was a teenager, but I never had privacy even if I'd wanted to. So... sexy text/chat conversations, I've done. But actually fiddling my bits during them, nope.
I never would have bothered lying. I know it has the potential to kill the mood, but you play around it.
Darn near any outfit can be sexy if you let it be, especially when you keep out the visual and leave it to fantasy - the other person will fill in the blanks as s/he sees fit. Instead of, "crappy old tank top that somehow got stretched so now I wear it as a nightgown", you could say, "short white nightdress that barely covers my breasts".
As for starting dialogue:
"Are you horny?"
"No, but feel free to change that. ;)"
or open with "I am so damn horny today," or I just shaved and can't seem to keep my fingers off of my wet pussy," or "I really need to cum. Think you could help with that by sending a dirty reply?"
A little subtle, you could go with simply asking, "What's one of your kinkiest fantasies?" or "Do you like being tied up?" haha Both start off fairly sexual but if the other person seems disinterested, you can just end up with a discussion about fetishes or something like that.
Complete subtlety takes more back and forth than I am going to make up here.
You just roll with it, really. Don't over-think it. Sorry if that was too adult. haha
I hate sexting, but @IntoTheWind1@xanga has the best idea, in my opinion.
I usually lead off with some small talk. No different than if you were in a bar.
Alcohol helps too
But I've also found some help with this app: CouplePlay Ltd
Not sure how someone came up with so many messages. The author must have a whole lot of horny friends which is much to my benefit :)
I have found it really works well with my girlfriend.
