This is not exactly the same, because I met these people on a nude beach when we were already all nude. I explained that I’d like their help with something (before saying what it was) and it’s a bit awkward, and stressed that it’s totally ok for them to say no if they’re not comfortable with it. Then I mentioned the website and said it was not a sexual thing, but more of a challenge to be more comfortable and confident in our own bodies. I also stressed that the other person would not have to be nude themselves.
You could try something like that. But be prepared for the person to say no and to accept that. And also be prepared for the possibility that this person may no longer feel comfortable around you. In my situation it wasn’t as much of a big deal because I didn’t have any expectation of ever running into these people again. But if these are people on your regular route, that’s different.
Lucky for me, I live in the middle east. It’s sunny and 22 degrees at 10 am here today. I just did a bit of naked gardening as the spouse is out.
I wish you all warm, dry weather soon.
The psyching thing is definitely a big part of it. Honestly, the more comfortable I’ve become with my own nudity, and with being nude with other people in social settings, the less thrilling it has become. But it’s still very enjoyable.
But I think it’s kind of like trying to get into cold water. The more you think about it, the harder it gets to go for it. Best to just jump in.
I appreciate all your hard work, Ed.
You can move mine as well.
