Why is my sex life nuts?

    Ok, this may infuriate some people, but I would appreciate any information, advice or just comments. Why is my sex life nuts?

    I'm 37. Normally in my life, I haven’t been remarkable in terms of sexual exploits, not remarkably successful or remarkably otherwise. I don't consider myself particularly good looking or particularly repellent. But things have changed in the past year or so. I suppose I just thought I had been luckier than average for a few months, but it has been accelerating.

    It’s getting to the point that I have to keep a diary. The past week it has just gotten ridiculous. In the last eight nights, I’ve had my bed to myself just once, with five different girls. They range from good looking to stunning, 22 to 31 years. They are all very intelligent, either in high-powered jobs or academic courses. All but one has been great fun in bed, and very enthusiastic. One flew quite a distance to be with me. One new hook-up is promising to do the same to come back.

    This is not a once-off thing it has been happening for about the past 18 months, and I have been conscious of it for about a year. Today I spoke to another girl in a queue, we had a genuinely interesting conversation which I enjoyed, but a few minutes into it, I realised that she was quite attracted to me, keeping eye contact for a long time, smiling a lot and telling me a lot about herself. Before we parted she was careful to give me her number and email.

    In addition, there have been many girls who have been clearly interested but we didn't get together because I wasn't interested or for some other reason.

    I am certainly not complaining about any of this, but I am very curious. Firstly, I’d like to know what has changed. I haven’t changed my appearance other than I suppose getting older, and I can’t think of any other change that has taken place, certainly not that would be immediately obvious.

    I am relatively well off but I don't show off wealth with clothes or anything, quite the reverse. I suppose I am quite intelligent and well-read, and I am willing to have an intelligent conversation with anyone I bump into. The girls don’t know each other. I consider myself good in bed, but they hardly know that beforehand. I rarely go to clubs or any other pick-up type places, and almost certainly would not try to pick someone up if I did. So what has changed?

    The only things that I can think of are:

    * For some reason, as I get older, I am becoming a physical ‘type’ that women are more attracted to
    * There has been some subtle shift in my character that is more attractive
    * I had a couple of lucky hits, and this subconsciously increased my confidence and that is showing without my knowing

    So my question is this – what do you think is happening? And the advice I want is... well, I had considered settling down soon but this is making it very tempting not to. Any suggestions?

    Good point, although doesn't fit so much for me, I don't live in Ireland, and the girls mostly are students, or in good jobs.

    Seriously though, maybe you are a lot better looking than your self esteem is telling you?

    Maybe you are great in bed? Just because you believe these things to be unlikely doesn't mean it's not possible ;)

    You are probably more mature, more confident and more intelligent than you would have been previously. If you are the type who can chat up women in queues, then frankly I am not surprised that this is happening.

    Or maybe the women have got more loose since your days of youth ;-)

    I'm not bad looking, just not Brad Pitt, and I certainly haven't had any surgery so I can't see what has caused the change.

    I _am_ good in bed, I quietly take great pride in that, but I can't see how someone who I strike up a conversation with in a shopping centre queue could know that.

    I have reason to believe that the OP is trolling. Please feel free to PM me if I'm wrong.
