we used to a lot but not so much anymore. the shine of it no longer is that great anymore for either her or myself. it used to be cool and taboo but now it's just what adults do. besides, with the internet ever so strong nowadays, you have all the porn you need in the comfort of your own home and you can order toys to show up right at your door... the thrill of it all doesn't excite us anymore.

if it still does it for you, please keep going and be good patrons.

When my wife and I were first married, lube was not readily available as it is today. Even when we visited Chicago it wasn't even in most drug stores but was only available at adult bookstores. We rarely went in together - usually she'd wait in the car while I ran in to resupply. It's amazing the number of options you can now get at any Target let alone online - sure makes things easier. Most adult bookstores we went to weren't particularly couple friendly back then.

A couple months ago we stopped in a Lover's Lane to get lube (nothing else available nearby and we ran out.) What a difference - a young saleswoman was really open and helpful in explaining some new products. A very sex positive place even if overpriced.

Nope, and she has zero interest in going with me.
But in the past she had told me she had gone with her best girlfriend a few times.
If we need lube I get it from a Walgreens, but I did find out that Amazon has astroglide as an add on item so I ordered a few.

I went to xxx stirs with theaters and peeps with glory holes. The more I went the more I wanted. My wife is more conservative than me sexually but I finally talked her into going with me.
I Han seen guys bring ther wives to the peeps with glory holes and watch them suck strangers dicks. I got a couple of bj that way. It seemed so hot!
I had visions of taking my wife to a peep with a glory hole and when a hard dick came through the hole convince her to touch it and eventually suck it.
The night it was driving her to the xxx I was so excited. We got to the store but my wife said she would not go in. I was disappointed and still have not seen her suck another man’s dick

Went in a Lovers Lane with the wife for a rabbit vibrator and toy cleaning soap. When it came time to check out she got embarrassed and went out to the car

Sorry to hear she wasn't comfortable there. The Lover's Lane I stopped in outside of Grand Rapids was wonderful. The woman who assisted me must have been 30 years younger than I and was so positive. I'll bet she would have made your wife feel comfortable and much more at ease. I don't know if that chain does training for its employees or if I just happened upon a good one. Before I thought of the LL franchises as cheesy lingerie stores (having never been in one) but now I have a much more positive take on them. She made me feel proud to be proactive in taking care of my wife's (and my own) needs.

The sales people were very nice and helpful. It was just my wife thinking someone we know would see her in there

We've been to a bunch of adult stores. No qualms on her part or mine. I even park my work truck with my name and business number right out front.

Given that just about everything in society is sold with sex, its odd that people get nervous about things that relate to it directly. As if seeing someone in a store proves they have sex and that's shameful.

So true - good for you. If a friend or neighbor were to see me in at an adult store, I'd be proud to be there, no shame at all, just living my life. I may keep details of my sex life somewhat private, but the fact that anyone has a sex life should come as no surprise to anyone on this planet.

Even though I wasn't raised with such openness about sex, being a parent (and encouragement and role modeling from my wife) has changed me to be open and sex positive.

I've always found this line of thinking amusing. If someone you know saw you there, then *they* were also at a sex shop! Heaven forbid your friends think that you and your wife actually have sex!

Seriously though, some people are just uncomfortable acknowledging their sexuality to someone other than their partner.

My wife and I go in together every so often. There's one that she likes (and its known to be focused on being well maintained, knowledgeable and discrete). At the very least, we'll walk out of there with a new bottle of lube or two - maybe a toy if we find something that looks fun.

For my wife, it is important to feel comfortable and respected when she is in a store like that. So many of them are not like that - they look shady or can feel dirty, or cater to a very different clientele.

Nothing to do with sex, but in a similar vein my wife and I are nudists and the topic of running into someone we know at our nudist resort comes up from time to time before newbies to the lifestyle.

We in fact had such an occasion. We showed up at the indoor pool and my wife says "hi" to a woman I never saw before then. They chat and I'm introduced, and I'm told the woman was a "cheerleader mom" in town from years back before I met my wife. The woman seems a bit embarras but we just small talk and keep things welcoming and informative when we learn it's their first nudist experience. We never saw her again. Betting if we had not run into her for a few visits she'd have been okay and continued. But bet too that this was too much too soon. Women worry about seeing someone they know, guys worry they'll get a boner...
