Oversharing

My bf is on the fringes of a large group of Asian gay guys.  When he's feeling less antisocial, he sometimes socializes with smaller groups of them.  The topic of conversation is often sex.  The larger group is a mix of couples and single guys.  He will tell me about the conversations sometimes, and usually say that he doesn't want to hear about their sex lives.  Haha, but I can tell he does want to hear about it.  I've told him that I think he actually does like hearing about what they do.  It seems interesting.  The group is active, and at least one of them is probably a sex addict.  Topics all over the place, from hookups to which couples are having challenges, open or even sexless.

While we were talking a few days ago he mentioned that he had told them something about our sex life.  I recoiled a bit and he could tell.  I'm a private person and not sure how I feel about this.  Not really a big deal I think.  Maybe it's good to show them some of our humanity?  They know who I am.  I've socialized with the larger group one time, although I find it awkward because they are mostly speaking Chinese.  I've socialized with smaller groups a few times.  I'll see my bf in ten days and we can discuss.

On another note, beautiful weather today.   I feel like winter is over.  At 7am it was 59 F (15 C).  I went running three miles.  It felt really good.  Yesterday I went out for a walk around 6:30am.  It was still dark, but so many people out running and walking.  Morning people.  I'm going to go out more in the early morning.

  1. I would not be happy with a boyfriend discussing our sex life with a group of friends. A confidential talk with a best friend would be okay.

  2. It is bound to happen when one associates with a group of gay friends talking about sex. Your bf probably didn't want to get left out from the group feeling unwanted.

    1. I think you're right. Everyone was talking and he just wanted to participate. They might have asked him for some details.

  3. I'm a private person as well so I would have not been happy to have my sex life shared w/o my consent. However, I understand like Zach said he probably did it to keep from feeling left out/unwanted. Winter is so not over yet but we are closer than we were last month. :-)

    1. Yes, he didn't want to be left out. I guess it's not that big a deal. I know so many details about these guys. I'm sure way more than they know about me.
