Saturday I finally used one of my massage gift certificates from my birthday. My birthday is in December. How pathetic is it, that it took me that long, to schedule a massage that wouldn't even cost me anything but the tip?
It was set. Saturday, 2:15 with Corey.
I get there and am waiting and I see a female and 2 males, and I think to myself. Hmmmm, I bet money Corey is a dude. Now, when I booked the appt. it didn't even occur to me that Corey would be a guy....my sister's nickname is Corey (spelled differently) so when I hear the name I automatically think of a girl.
Sure enough, a cute, blond, mid-twenty something of a guy, comes over and introduces himself as Corey.....and says that he will be my masseuse today. A slight hint of a smile may have drifted across my face at that moment.
I actually was a bit nervous....women had always given me my massages before, and did I mention that he was young, blond and cute?
Anyway, the massage was fine, good even. I did, however; have a hard time totally relaxing since I was worrying more than usual about whether or not the sheet was covering certain areas adequately or not and I think he could tell I was a little tense.
When I was still on my stomach and he was getting ready to massage the back of my leg, he asked me if I was ticklish.....
Me: um...not really?
Him: I just wondered because your hamstring just totally tightened up.
Me: Sorry...I'm trying to relax.
Internal dialogue: Yeah dude. My hammy totally tightened up, because this is the first time another guy (did I mention that he was young, blond and cute?) has touched me, much less massaged, my bare skin all over my body, in over 10 years. So yeah, I'm having a tad bit of a hard time relaxing here!! Is that sheet tucked tight enough between my legs and up against my chest? Check and check.
I finally relaxed and when it was over, I gave Corey a nice tip for having to deal with a neurotic married woman who was barely mature enough to get a massage from a cute young blond professional male masseuse.
**I did call Dave immediately afterwards to confess. hee hee. Now he has ammunition to tease me with for the next year.

Teehee! I'm sure he is used to it, but it sure was a fun story!
I had a male masseuse once but really it was more like having a girl give a massage if you know what I mean. Except with really strong hands. Actually it was a pretty great massage come to think of it.
I would have been the same way!
haha...thats funny. Yeah, I can totally relate to the double and triple checking the sheet, but eventually I have to give in because it feels so good.....I'm such a sucker for a good massage.
Glad you had a nice one - perhaps you'll get another gift card for your upcoming b-day.

Hmm - I've never actually had a massage, other than one from the spousal unit. Everyone I ever knew in Japan who got one always felt good, but totally beaten up. I remember wondering why in the world anyone would get one if they hurt later! The Japanese are apparently rather forceful with their massaging!
Sounds yummy!
I'm not gonna lie, this post totally got me excited. :)
More please . . .
I can relate to this on a whole different level (I just posted it today). Except I think I'm more of a freak.
as someone who has gone without ANY physical affection from the opposite sex for an ENTIRE YEAR (no, I'm not a nun), I don't think I would have been able to handle that.
Next time I am in town you have to tell me where to find Corey ☺
My one and only full body massage was done by a totally hot looking guy. Only bad thing was he was gay. I wish I could say I enjoyed the whole thing but I had drank coffee before and midway had to pee and I was too embarrassed to tell him I had to use the bathroom. So the last 30 minutes I was miserable and thinking to myself, Please don't piss yourself, Susan!
Bwahahahaha. This story gave me the giggles.
I have a issue when I have to see a new massage therapist because I never know rather I should leave my undies (okay, spanx!) on or my bra. They all differ you know? I couldn't imagine if it was a hot young guy. I could see myself baring it all because I'm wild like that or I could see myself leaving all my clothes on because I am shy like that.
Maybe my next massage will be with a man and then we will know the truth. Hmmmm.....
Where can I find this Corey? I need a good massage..... :)
I know a Corey who's a masseuse. Wonder if it's the same person?
Kathy-shhhh. Don't say a word! :) I won't even tell you where I went now....I'll be so embarrassed!
I remember the first time I went to a "spa day" with my Mom. When they said I had to wear a robe and only that, I almost walked out. Lol. I'm not a prude, not really. Anyway, I love spa days now. We try to have one every couple of years, just the girls. And only ladies do the massage. This past August was a Spa Day and Greg kept asking, "Is it a woman giving you the massage?" Too funny.
The best massage I ever had was from a male masseuse - very strong hands and he was taller than any of the women I'd been to, so he was able to get a different angle on all those muscles. Glad you ended up enjoying yours!
I have never had a male masseuse...I know I would have had a hard time relaxing too. Besides your muscles seem much more toned when you are tense ;)
try having husband's best friend as a massage therapist.
i could get plenty of free massages if it wasn't so darn awkward.
plus he's cute to boot. sucky.
i can completely relate.
I hope you made another appointment! Because after all, he was YOUNG, BLONDE and CUTE!
Thanks for the smile, I found you on all mediocre!
Come visit anytime!

LOL. I have only had a male masseuse once and he was gay...bummer.
Sounds like you had a good birthday gift though!
I would've never made it through the massage with a guy!! EVERYTHING would have tightened on me!! :)
I've been there but I did NOT confess to my hubs. However, I normally prefer male masseuses. It seems like in my experience they put enough pressure without trying to give you s sports therapy (read: painful) massage.
