Late July 2022, I went to North Carolina (NC) Topsail Island (I live in Illinois) and it was a long 18 hour drive with a break half way through, first time I've been to NC/a beach in 14 years and first time for my fiance (then gf, I proposed on our trip). we stayed 4 days 3 nights at a beach house through air bnb. also it was the first time I'd driven that far (farthest was ohio for Cedar point i.e. around 6 hours, which was a couple weeks before lol) so I was nervous to drive that far, my fiance and I switched off driving but I was glad to have a newish car (2020 CRV) to get us there. as a kid/teen my parents always drove.
I heard from another briefs friend that I should try a speedo/swim brief at the beach. in all my 32 years I'd only worn swim trunks or board shorts (all without underwear, even as a kid) and I said, "hm that sounds interesting" and I bought 3 pairs in red for the trip. one pair was calvin klein and the other 2 were speedo brand.
I wasn't sure if I'd actually be comfortable or confident enough to wear it once we got there. the first day it was late afternoon when we got to the beach house and I brought a pair of swim trunks and wore those the first evening, I was ITCHING to visit a beach: smell/feel the water, feel/smell the breeze, and sand on me! I loved it.
the 2nd morning I woke up and told my fiance i had a surprise (she knows I wear briefs) and came out in a pair of CK swim briefs. she was surprised but not turned off, I say that cause I'm overweight with a sizable stomach and butt.
with that, once we went out to the beach I was nervous and wore a towel over the briefs, after about 1 minute, I said F IT! and took off the towel. the beach was pretty crowded (the neighbors and the condo connected to other renters) with kids and adults alike.
BUT I LOVED IT, I was the most comfortable I'd ever been on a beach, I didn't have to worry about constantly fixing my swim shorts and worrying about a wedgie. I also felt so comfortable fit wise on the beach and ESPECIALLY in the water, I had so much freedom of movement. I was surprised and sad I was the only one in swim briefs though the entire trip
I have no shame in front of my fiance but not in front of others, I was INSANELY glad I got the courage to wear the 3 pairs throughout the rest of the trip!! when we go back I hope to lose weight and again not wear anything but speedos at the beach!!!!
anyone else have a similar experience?
later
