On Saturday, my partner and I went to a house party for St. Patrick's Day with people we had never met before, which was completely outside of my comfort zone, but we only live once, right?
Considering we are quickly becoming more public on our journey, I need to become more comfortable partying with new friends. We dressed up and walked into that party as if we had been there many times. My partner tends to own any room he walks into for several reasons: his stunning looks, his solid masculine presence, and his wearing a sexy kilt. I immediately went into what I call "Stephanie Mode." Anyone who knows me personally knows exactly what that is. Still, for others, I make everyone feel comfortable and relaxed and ensure that they are having fun by bringing out the." shy, hidden elements of their personality. I didn’t know any of these new friends, but we would all have a great time.
This was so much fun! We talked and got to know each other’s likes and dislikes, boundaries, and absolute hard lines in a fun and playful manner. Several friends, including myself, just wanted to have fun with like-minded people but not necessarily play. My partner and I are natural party starters in many ways, and we ensured it was a great time for all. I even got stuck in a skirt that it took a pit crew to get me out of, but they prevailed. Yes, it wasn't very comfortable, but I rolled around it and laughed!
While we didn’t play with other couples other than kissing and rubbing, it was one of the best nights we have had together in a long time. We are fans of house parties and will soon host a show on how to host a kick-ass house party. We will invite several of our favorite party hosts to the show to tell us their secrets and pointers for hosting a great party!
