The woman I'm spending time with has convinced me

Since I have a very large piece of land. (150 acres) And Summer, the woman I'm spending time with has a large piece of land (200 acres). Therefore because we are both senior citizens and there as heck isn't a hell of a lot of people dropping in on us, we might as well just stop wearing clothes.

I know my oldest grandchild is a nudist and I can't see any of my kids getting upset. I've never considered myself a nudist before, but what the hell. I've got less days before me than I do behind me. So I might as well enjoy what I have left. It's been a while since my wife passed away and it's nice having a woman around to keep me company. Nudism makes her happy and she makes me happy. Therefore I'm going to be a nudist.

 

hey, if the climate cooperates, where's the harm? i would have problems with sunburn in places i do not want to be sunburned, and i weld and run a cutting torch...so, i'm not following in your footsteps, i think...but rock out, and enjoy.

 

I wish I had the confidence to walk around naked. My boyfriend would love it, probably prays for the day I stop being self conscious. It takes courage, but I've been trying to get in shape so maybe someday I'll be able to without feeling gross lol. Kudos to you, enjoy your nudeness!

 

You know,
We were all born naked. It's natural and very liberating and being nude has a way of building confidence. What you should do is what my wife made me do. When no one is home, just walk around your house nude. Also you can do things like look in a mirror and perhaps even have your boyfriend do a body cast of yourself.

 

It's natural to be naked. I hardly ever wear clothes at home and that is usually just a big shirt and no undies. It's a shame you aren't comfortable enough with the shape of your body, la P, to go about at home with no clothes. Please just do it even when your home alone; don't think about your shape or your perception of it. The human body in all its diverse shapes and forms is wonderful. Get used to the feeling of liberation.

 

You we have a bad habit of letting Hollywood and other medias dictate what beauty is. The truth of the matter is that "type" of beauty is such a small portion of society that it's almost laughable.

Everyone healthy is beautiful. Plain and simple as that.

 

I remember being naked once

 

Just once? Do you wear a suit & tie to the shower?

 

I would like to have a forum. Something with the theme of "naked hippies sharing love and making love all around the world." But sadly, I can't figure out how to make my computer print stuff off and I type with only 2 fingers. So I don't see this happening any time soon.

 

Id be naked most of the time too if I had 200 acres

except maybe during blackfly season...and winter of course

 

I would but I'm barely ever home alone. But you're right, I think when I live with my boyfriend he will end up coaxing me into being nude more and I'll get comfortable with it.

Thanks for the suggestion :2thumbsup:

 

• In order to be free, you need to express your natural born freedoms.

• In order to express those freedoms, you need to have self confidence.

And here is the catcher!

• In order to have self confidence, you need to express your freedoms.

It all comes down to one day looking yourself in the mirror and asking yourself; Are you going to embrace this sacred special gift of life you have been given and make it beautiful by living it freely and thereby to the fullest?

Or are you going to give into fear, pressures of conformism and ignorance.

If you decide to say "no," you will not try to embrace your freedoms. Then there is nothing anyone can say or do for you. You will just be one of the ignorant masses that will one day, when you're old, suffer from your own regrets.

BUT if the answer is "yes," you will embrace your natural born freedoms. Then make a list of all the things you need to do that will help you over come your insecurities and then do them. I'll give you a hint on what should be first on that list, "Say I love you to yourself with a big hug every night before you go to sleep."

It's a beautiful beautiful life.
It's a beautiful beautiful world.
But it takes self confidence and love in order to see that beauty.​

 

Would say Go For It and Enjoy if the weather permits & there are no insects to bite where you won't want to be bitten .... there are no insects on my fifth floor (roof top) of my place so no worries for me there & I can walk around naked in the condo proper all day without any fear of anyone seeing me. As sexless as my wife is she walks around naked all morning until she dresses for work & does laundry naked ... even though she is sexless she is still very beautiful & looks ideal standing naked before me (no boob sag & fit like the marathon runner she is).

 

Great advice from you, as always VOT. If I had been raised in your house, I probably would have as much self confidence as you do. But I'm trying to gain it in my adult life on my own. I don't want to have any regrets, knowing I didn't do things I would enjoy because of my insecurities.

 

Start small and take lots of little steps. Start tonight by looking in the mirror, putting your arms around yourself and saying "I love you."

It will feel strange and perhaps it might even appear to be stupid. But stick with it and do it every night before you go to bed. You will be amazed at how inside of 1 month just how different and more confident you will feel and be. I'm not joking, it is that simple.

After you gain that little bit of confidence, you can start giving yourself some small challenges. So to speak little things to do that will help you spread your wings. Like going up to a stranger in a coffee shop and asking if you can share the table with him/her. Sounds weird but not being afraid of strangers goes a long way ensuring your never afraid of rejection. And it also gives you a sense of courage that you can use in a million different other circumstances.

And who knows? Perhaps one day you might be at a nudist beach and see an old man with a bad southern american accent sitting near you.

 

I am actually kind of afraid of strangers. I'm pretty shy.

And why a bad southern american accent? lol

 

Everyone is afraid of strangers. That's what makes it such a great exercise in building confidence. But I would really recommend you start with hugging and loving yourself.

My wife was from New York. We were together for more than 40 years and her accent really influenced mine.

 

I used to be the same way for no reason, but then I met my partner. She tells me everyday how beautiful I am and it has boosted my ego so much that now i really don't give a shit what anyone thinks. As long as she still thinks I'm beautiful then I am So make sure you tell yourself everyday how beautiful you are:2thumbsup:

 

Hahah, that's interesting. My mother is from New York and people always question my being born in Florida because I talk like a New Yorker. I will try what you said though! Thanks

My boyfriend tells me I'm beautiful all the time also. We aren't together much because he lives a bit away from me, but when we are he is always in awe with me lol I don't see what he sees but if he thinks I'm so gorgeous he can't be totally out of it! Being around him more would certainly boost my confidence. Yay for feeling beautiful!

 

by visiting a nudist camp, club, resort you'd see nudists are different shapes and different sizes after 2 or 3 visits you would eventually overcome your shyness issues around strangers there
