The case of not going outside in the nude.

I’m a prude, unashamedly, and always have been. I just don’t leave the safety of my house, actually, the privacy of my bedroom without clothes on. I’m even uneasy being topless in summer, but I’ve got over that. In the appropriate place, like the beach, or the pool, it is fine. or out in your orchard, picking fruit, on a hot day

So having said that, I have been caught outside totally naked and seen by women not my wife, and I’m determined not to get caught in that situation again. It was mortifying, to say the least.

‘The first time this happened to me, I had stepped out of my sliding door onto the poolside of my back yard swimming pool. I was alone, my back yard was encircled by a solid tall wooden fence so no one could see me. As I was walking around looking at the flowers and scooping the leaves out of the pool, enjoying the sun and the soft breeze, My neighbor on the side, behind the fence , must have heard me and said hello. Knowing she couldn’t see me, I continued to walk around the back yard not concerned that I was stark naked. After about 15 minutes of conversation, I headed back to the sliding door and my bedroom, and for the first time looking up at the direction of her voice. She was on the top of a ladder cleaning the gutters of the roof of her house! She had a Birds Eye view, literally, of me totally stark naked, and had not said anything. I ran inside, and avoided her for a long time after that. I was so embarrassed.

‘The second I went outside naked was years later, when I was living in the mountains on a 5 acre property at the very end of a road, no one ever came on that road, and once it entered my property it became almost a private driveway, past the house and ended on the far side of the property at our warehouse of beads. So on this day, which was sunny and warm, I walked down a little trail through the trees to the warehouse, wearing only a pair of sandals. We had been living there maybe 4 years, with no one just stopping by without an appointment. So I felt safe to try it again, per Jme’s instigation And conjoining. So I went for it.

I’m sitting at the front of the warehouse, behind the desk, with the roll up door open, the view of the forest spread out in front of me and the gravel road between me and the forest. It was beautiful. All of a sudden George(the closet neighbor to us, an older women, I know, a male name) walked up to me and said” hi Guy, I thought I would go on a walk and come say hi. I hope you don’t mind”. Well, Normally I woul’t mind, I actually liked her as a newborn. But today - I was mortified! I swore I would never leave the house again unclothed. Anyway, she must have noticed my expression on my face, or maybe how I was cowering behind the desk, because she left quickly, and never came unannounced again.

The third time, I know, I know, I said I would never leave the house unclothed again, and I haven’t, but this time I had an excuse. It was in another house, where I live now, on 6 acres, no close neighbors, the access road not too close but passersby could see the front door if they were to look. It was lightly raining, 6 o’clock in the morning, no one ever is on the road at that time or in the rain, and I was sleeping in the nude as normal when my old dog let me know he had to go outside NOW, so I jumped out of bed and ran to the door to let him out. Recently, I had let him out ant and he wandered off and got lost, so because of that I went out with him to guide him back. It wasn’t cold, still late summer. Well, as I’m standing there, naked as a new born baby, I heard voices, and a man and woman walked past the house on the road talking and laughing to each other. Oh no, busted again! I jumped behind a rose bush, getting totally soaked by the rain, and was stuck for about 5 minutes. Finally they were past, and I escaped into the house, unseen. Phew, never again. I swear.

actually, I just remembered, there was another occassion, this time at midnight in the summer, and I was working in the warehouse. It was over 95 degrees in the metal building and felt like a sauna. People pay good money to use a sauna, and I get it for free. And on this night, I walked to the warehouse fully clothed. But after a while, being in the building, I stripped off. But at least I was inside. Until midnight. No one is wandering outside and it’s dark, so When I was done with my assignment I walked back to the house about 100 feet away. I was safe, right? Oh no, not me. As I’m half way between the warehouse and the house a car turns onto the driveway and aims directly at me with its headlights blazing on me like a spotlight on a stage. Can you believe it! Busted again. Never, never again.
