I thought HappyGal was worthy of a thread so here is her latest Then and Now. I did invite her over but as we all know getting a new account and comments posted can take a while.

I've been around VW for a while but I can't say I remember her from 8 years ago... but there have been a lot of gals come and go over the years. I like the "Then and Now" theme and IMHO HappyGal looks cuter and sexier now than she did then- not to say that she didn't look good in the "then" pics.

It's great seeing a lady smile in the pics to show she is having fun. And you have a great smile HappyGal. I love your little titties... especially with the tan lines. :mrgreen: Of course the rest of the package is pretty darn sweet as well.

Thanks Dawg - I think you made my day!

I am new to VW and so far it has been a really positive experience. I will be able to create a couple more sessions with the "Then and Now" theme, but once I run out of those - it will just be "Now... and Later", :roll:

I'm glad you like my pictures. I Do have major tan lines - maybe some freestyle shots in the future...?... so I can work on getting some sun on my white tits and ass! Thanks for starting this thread.

I do enjoy Then&Now photoshoots. Nice to see how the person changes with time. HappyGal changed little...stayed just as cute.

Hi HappyGal. I see that Admin finally got around to approving your first comments. Sure took them long enough. :?

Nothing wrong with tan lines. They can be kinda sexy. And nothing wrong with no tan lines either. :mrgreen:

Freestyle... Private Shots... Nude in Public... who cares what section. Just keep posting. Glad it's been a positive experience for you so far. Unfortunately there are some real jerks posting comments on the contri comments section. But fortunately there are not too many over here on the bb's.

Oh, you are most welcome for the thread. Glad you joined in. Keep commenting and maybe more people will join in on the conversation. That's half the fun!

It only took a week! I just posted a new set. All are from "then". I hope you like them. I'm holding on to the more explicit ones until I feel braver. I need a better photo editor for the " now" sets. ;)

When I started I thought it was an amateur site but now I realize people hire photogs and everything!!

HappyGal is back with Put Down That Camera?. I believe the question on the table is
HappyGal wrote:Will any of these poses make him drop the camera and ravish me?


The answer from me is... Any of them. You are cute... you are naked. What more can we ask?! If he doesn't want to take advantage of those facts, I will. :oops: :oops: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: ;) Especially pic 4. :P

I like the last pic best...the afterglow. The angle makes me look all plump and rosy like Venus in a renaissance painging. All I need is a velvet throw, a cornucopia and a partridge perched nearby. Ha...being silly ;)

It's pretty fun, this posting - why didn't I discover vw sooner? I get off on checking out my photos online, and some of the other hotties, and reading my comments; the nice ones. There haven't been many nasty ones. I guess there are always gonna be haters. I have a lot to post but am trying to take my time. I'm impatient though. I want to post a new set every day!! Oh no...a new addiction :D

Us women are at a disadvantage here though - we don't know what our admirers look like but they all can see us down to the nip!

I have another contribute pending publishing. I can't wait to see if they decide if one of the pictures is too explicit :P naughty naughty naughty :D

The new contri is all current pics and has a story. But it was frustrating because the photos were getting cropped so my face isn't showing in all the pics though I wanted it to be. Also I tried to fix this and keep the photos in the right order for the story but they kept getting rearranged!! I need better camera and photo software...stat! ( and VW needs to upgrade their upload feature!)

So whats the deal with the forums... How do I get automatic posting privileges? Each of my forum posts takes a week to be reviewed... Doesn't make it easy to have a fun conversation. I like posting on my contris but I don't think many go back and see those. Just thought i'd ask since both Thinker and GreyDawg seem to be site regs.

And she's back one more time with You Caught Me.

Haven't heard much from HappyGal. I hope thaw's just cuz her comments are lost in the queue waiting for Admin to approve them.

Full frontal HappyGal. Love it! :mrgreen:

HappyGal, here's the thing with the Forums. When a new account is created by someone, Admin doesn't allow the first few comments to post automatically. They review them to make sure the comments are not spam. It seems they are not very diligent on reviewing new comments so it may take a while. I know it's frustrating. Every new account has to deal with it. And then when your comments do show up, they show up at the date you made them. So sometimes comments get buried in the thread and are missed. You can always try and e-mail Admin and ask them to clear you since you are a contributor.

Yeah... this is supposed to be an amateur site. But there are ladies that do hire photographers and there are some whose significant others are just downright good with a camera. The rules are spelled out somewhere but it seems sometimes the rules seem kinda vague. Yes, there are haters out there so growing a thick skin is a must. It's sad... but true.

Just a suggestion, don't post a new set every day. People will get burned out and tired of seeing you. I've seen many women do that and after a bit their scores drop and they eventually go away. Go for quality and not quantity. Build the anticipation and make us wait... like every couple of weeks or once a month.

Yeah... you do look happily shagged in the last shot of "Put Down That Camera" with that look of contentment and sex hair. As far as the velvet throw, cornucopia and the partridge, why not?! Themed contris are GREAT. There are some ladies that used to post here that did amazing themed contris. There are still some that do it here. CountryGal does some really nice ones. Check them out to get some ideas.

As far as not being able to see what your "admirers" look like... some of us have posted actual pics of ourselves. I may be doing that again. But as my username says, I'm a grey haired old dawg. :lol: :lol:

Thanks for the advice. How'd you like my last set? I'm peeved that the pics are in the wrong order - totally screws up the story.

Right - but the second picture in the set "You Caught Me" is supposed to be the last picture in the set. Oh well! Can I say something I probably shouldn't? When I started on this site, I didn't know about the prize$. Now that I do know about them, the super competitive troll inside me wants to WIN! However, the realist inside doesn't think that's likely. Having realized that, I'm tempted to quit. I have a short attention span. I'll get excited about a new "hobby" but quickly bored with it when it stops giving me a rush or challenge. Also, I get a wee bit jealous of all the hotter women. I can't help it-I'm an American women practically encouraged to compare myself to others!! Plus, I'm getting past the age when men are gonna drool - and that's Depressing!! If I wasn't HappyGal I'd be HonestGal. If not that then Not-As-Confident-as-I-Look-Gal.

So having said all my reasons for not posting, what reasons can you give me to continue?

Ignore that - that is just my m.o. ...questioning all my decisions. I like posting and I get a thrill from reading my comments. I just plan not view the other ladies and not look at the section ranks. :roll:

HappyGal, I've said it before and I'll say it again. You women are your own worst enemies. You have to realize that every man (and woman) has their own preference as to what type (or types) of woman they enjoy looking at. And since women come in all shapes, colors and sizes, it's a smorgasbord for us guys. You have to remember that to me- and probably a lot of others- you are the younger gal.

I've found- and I'm sure there are a LOT of people will agree- the attitude of the woman can be MUCH sexier than their looks. IMHO, you are a real cutie and the fact that you really look like you are having fun makes you that much sexier. The fact that you respond to your comments and join in on the conversations here makes you even more appealing.

Don't quit or get discouraged just because you don't think you measure up to other women. Post because you enjoy posting and keep chatting because you enjoy the interaction.

Jbe, you are a wise ol horn dog, aren't you!? I would agree that every man or woman is their own worst enemy.

DH (darling husband) says we need a new camera before we take any more pics for posting :?:

I think our camera is fine - not sure I want to be in hi-def!

Guess I'll have to break out the tri-pod and take things into my own hands. :D

But that doesn't sound as fun... :roll:

HappyGal, I'm sure there would be no shortage of guys volunteering to take the pics if DH is not up to the task. ;) I'd be at the head of the line. :mrgreen: Or... you could go out and buy a new camera so he has no excuse. :D

As far as me being a wise ol horn dawg... that is debatable... about the wise part. I've just been around here for a while and I can tell you that I've seen some beautiful women here that still think they are not good enough and still compare themselves to someone else. :roll: :roll:

I bet it takes a lot of work to take good pictures of yourself. For one thing, it took me FOREVER to get a propic to upload! Couldn't get the size right or something. Also, I really suck at taking selfies on my phone. Usually takes 10 tries to get a decent one.

As for comparing ourselves to other women....it's tough. I know it's a waste of time and energy but...when DH gets turned on by another woman I see red. :evil:
By Jbe
#44614
HappyGal, taking selfies is extremely difficult... even if you have a tripod and timer on your camera. I am by no means a professional photographer even though I've been at it for about 40 years. But one thing I can tell you- and I've also heard it from pro photographers- it takes about 10 shots to get one decent one- or one you like. Just keep at it.

It's perfectly normal for you to see red when DH finds another woman attractive. We guys are very visual creatures. Just remember who he goes home with. Just a thought... when you notice him getting turned on by another woman, have you ever considered talking with him about it? Finding out what it is that attracts him? Sharing his enjoyment of her? (No, you don't have to be bi to do that.)

What you wrote in the Exhibitionist Forum... coming home from XTC and saying you should have asked him to stroke himself... and how turned on he was... Go with that and do it next time. We guys are gonna look. And if you aren't looking at guys, I'd be worried. Try and not get jealous or see red. Use it as an opportunity to talk openly about it... and when you are both hot and bothered, drag him to the bedroom and fuck like bunnies. ;)

I have. We talk and talk and talk about all this stuff. I am capable of doing what you suggest for a 24 hour window quarter annually - He knows when the time is right. The rest of the time, I'm just not cool enough for that. I'm happy just to keep it all about me - tyvm!

Actually, I don't look at guys very much. Out in public, it isn't very often that a guy turns my head just based on looks alone. I only have eyes for DH. I guess I'm not too visual. Plus, I'm in my own weird world most of the time. However, I get very turned on when I catch a guy checking me out. 8-)

I was hoping to add another comment before you read my last one.

I was going to add that I may very well be totally full of shit and not know what I am talking about. A lot of what I wrote comes from my own experiences and may or may not work for someone else. No offense intended.

HappyGal - when I was married, I had a very jealous wife. Her father had a perfect line that I use - "just because I'm on a diet, doesn't mean I can't look at the menu". And I also said, if I'm not looking - bury me cause I'm dead. Now that didn't mean I was looking at every woman that went walking by - just he few that caught my eye. Her jealousy did get better and I always came home to her. Just thought I'd throw my 2 cents worth in.

Well... maybe just a little. But I kinda get the impression you ARE a little feisty. ;) ;) :D

It was really more of me thinking that I was giving input or "advice" when none was asked for. I sometimes get a little irritated if someone does that to me so I try not to do it to anyone else. But I do occasionally slip. :oops: :oops:

Don't worry. Hubby has plenty of fun I assure you. He doesn't complain - And he can look all he wants - I just don't want to look/comment together on VW. Can't explain it - maybe it's cuz the contris are too 'real world'. Guess I'm not a Coffette....huh? We watch porn sometimes, do I get some points for that?

<insert covert subject change>

Yeah so, how's the weather where you all are at?? :?

Thunder rolling in here.

#44630
If you keep hanging out on the Town Hall you'll soon become a COFFette. And you get points for just showing up here. :D

The weather here in my corner of southern California is 89°, 35% humidity and partly cloudy. We had rain yesterday which is really odd because normally this time of year days hit 100° to 110° with 5% humidity and NO rain. Sure not complaining, though, cuz SoCal is in the worst drought in years and it might just dry up and blow away with the dust.

That would likely make Oregon and Washington very happy. :lol: :lol:

I took a little rain shower outside just now. Because I'm industrious, I also tried to scrub the algae off the fence at the same time. That wasn't fun so it turned into a sexy shoot on the trampoline then on the lanai. If any of the pics are cute maybe I'll upload to my gallery eventually.

Afterwards the lightning was unreal. Love all the lightning here in south Fl.

California does seem to have a lot of hardships. I like the state but I understand where WA and OR are coming from

HappyGal - I lived in the Tampa area so I know what the weather and lighting is like in Florida. I never saw it rain so hard as it did while living there.

I live in Northern California just south of San Francisco. Very low humidity with the temp in the low 80s. As with SoCal, we are also very dry.

I do that too. Probably everyone does. All is well!

I'm glad you like my pic - to me it looks.....BIG! LOL

It was a fun night Turtle. So fun!

Cj - it was a full-on downpour at first, but true to S Fl form, it quickly dissipated to a gentle rain which was more enjoyable to be naked in.

Lucky for you that I never give unsolicited advice. Love the picture of you on the chair. (BTW, lower the angle of the camera a little on the next picture. You cut off too much on the bottom.) ;) Love your smile. Southern FL you say? Do you ever get out to Haulover Beach? Or Key West?
User avatar

#44941
No I haven't been to Key West yet. I want to someday soon, I hope! Haven't heard of Haulover, where's that? I guess I could google it. :roll: There are no beaches nearby that are topless or clothing optional. We talked about checking out Caliente. I'm so shy around new people I'm not sure I'd like it. I'd much rather be a on a beach than at a club. It's all there is, so may just go for an afternoon to hang by the pool there someday if our kiddo is being looked after.
