At the curtain call of her thirties, Lucy Dent finds herself in a marriage where meaningful communication, sexual contact and friendship have all but disappeared. Craving comfort and attention, she turns to the internet to find companionship and finds fulfilment in online sexual liaisons.
Lucy details her sexual encounters with searing honesty - but this book is so much more than a 'sex memoir'. It explores marital disharmony, loneliness, addiction and the ramifications of making the choice not to have children. In an age in which lives are played out via social networks, this compelling book exposes how the supposed security of online interaction doesn't, in fact, stay safe for very long.
,What started out as a whim to pass the time then became habit, and it soon became what I suppose I have to define as an addiction. I got hooked on online flirting, virtual affairs, and in doing so stumbled across a great many like-minded souls .
At the curtain call of her thirties, Lucy Dent finds herself in a marriage where meaningful communication, sexual contact and friendship have all but disappeared. Craving comfort and attention, she turns to the internet for companionship. What starts as online flirting soon escalates to virtual sexual liaisons and she eventually discovers that the supposed security of online interaction doesn't, in fact, stay safe for very long.
In this compelling book, Lucy lays bare the loneliness and sexual discord that took hold within her marriage. With searing honesty, she recounts her online misadventures and the inevitable pain and destruction they brought about. Hers is truly a tale for the 21st century, one in which definition of infidelity becomes unclear and where the anonymity of the internet strips away all inhibitions.
