My Anniversary Present for Mary This Year
As our anniversary date neared, I began thinking about what I could give her as a present.
Flowers? She grows a lot of flowers, and cut arrangements wilt pretty quickly, lasting only a few days. Besides that, a friend had just given her a bouquet a few days ago, for Mother’s Day.
Mary likes chocolate, so there’s a wide assortment I could chose that I’m sure she would enjoy.
I knew I’d take her out for lunch or dinner, but wanted to give her something in addition to the meal we’d share together. I wanted to choose something that she would use for some time, and enjoy. I’d bought her a new sewing machine she wanted last year.
Then I thought, How about a new toy?
I introduced a sex toy to enhance our sexual activities many years ago, and she has enjoyed their effect. Because of our children’s presence, and our working different shifts, it was hard to find adult play time, so those early toy purchases were not used very often.
We have an assortment of inexpensive toys I’d purchased off Amazon to try, to see how she would like them. A few years ago, I splurged and bought a more expensive toy too: Lelo’s Sona Cruise. I’d read many positive reviews and decided she might like it. Turns out, that is an understatement. She loved how well it provided quick and powerful orgasms, which became a sort of foreplay for us.
Initially, I used the Sona on her, holding it in place after applying lube. As my previous posts have reported, I’ve encouraged Mary to take matters in her own hands, using the rationale that only she could judge what felt best to her—where to put the toy, how hard to press it against her skin, when and where to move it, and so on, for her greatest enjoyment. I described the excitement I felt while watching her respond to the toy, and encouraged her to indulge in her independent actions. The Sona provided her with very fast orgasms (often in under a minute), which would continue as long as it was held in place. She’d experience back to back, sometimes seemingly continuous waves of orgasmic bliss with that toy.
But this post is about my most recent toy purchase, which is the Lelo Sila. I was hesitant in purchasing it, due to its similarity to the Sona. While it is identical to the Sona in how it produces its effects, it has some important features differentiating it from the Sona. While both use sonic waves rather than vibration, the Sila is physically smaller in size than the Sona. This makes it easier for small hands to hold and move it around as desired.
The most important difference is the size and shape of the mouth of the devices—that area that contacts the clit and surrounding area. The Sona has a snout-like protrusion with a small mouth, the Sila has a wider, and larger mouth, which covers a greater area of skin, spreading the sonic waves over a wider area. The contact area of the mouth is also different in that the Sona has a smaller rim that makes contact with the skin, while the Sila has a wider rim, which Mary reports is much more comfortable in use.
I presented the Sila to Mary, telling her it was an anniversary present, that I wanted to give her something that I thought she would enjoy. She was curious about how it worked and was excited to give it a try. After some lube was applied, I showed Mary how to turn it on and cycle through the different patterns. Sila has 8 settings, different “strengths,” and different patterns: steady stream, slow pulse, faster pulse, etc. She quickly took over and moved it to her “pleasure zone”.
It didn’t take long before she was giggling and laughing, and soon after, she was that having her first orgasm. I wasn’t timing her, but I’d be surprised if the first one took over a minute. A second, stronger one soon followed. This pattern continued, as I watched how quickly her excitement and energetic responses built. Soon, she was rocking her hips and thrusting her pelvis in a frenzy, riding one orgasm into the next without slowing down. I was amazed at the intensity, and encouraged her to remember to breathe deeply.
I suggested that, after she finished an orgasm, she change the Sila’s pattern to try another setting. Mary managed to accomplish that, and she was off, quickly racing toward yet another orgasm. I continued to watch, her face reddened, as did her heaving chest. She was panting and I reminded her to take deep breaths, then try another setting.
She did try several more settings, and I watched as she lifted her butt off the mattress and came yet again. Wondering if she was exhausting herself, I asked her if she wanted to take a break. She removed the device from her love tunnel and she seemed to melt into the bed, totally relaxed. I could feel the heat radiating from her body. She was hot—physically and sexually.
After a short rest, her breathing had returned to normal, I asked if she wanted to use the Sila some more, and she replied, “I’d rather take a ride on you.”
And she dis.
After she took a nap, I asked her how she likes the Sila, and how it compared to the Sona. Her response was, “I think it’s great. It’s a lot more comfortably. I like it better.”
So, I can conclude it was a good choice for her present. I will admit that I certainly enjoyed watching the effect it had on her, as well as how well it prepared her for our activities afterward.
It just speaks volumes for your marriage that sex toys are an appropriate and welcomed anniversary gift.
It also says a lot that she was willing to put on such a show with the new Sila. I love that she loved the toy, but I also love that she wanted you.
It’s a really hot story and I enjoyed following along.
Thanks KingdomMan, appreciate the feedback. Though honestly, I don't believe she was intentionally putting on a show for me..I believe she just gets lost in the moment, feeling the pleasurable sensations that are building toward her orgasm. I doubt she pays much attention to how her reactions are affecting me. I've encouraged her to wear a blindfold while we play ( not so she doesn't see me ) but so she can focus more on the sensations she is feeling, rather than being distracted by other things. I have noticed that she often closes her eyes during our play, if she isn't wearing her blindfold. I do get very excited, watching her body respond, and it really gets her" motor running" to climb on me, when she's feeling most ready . She always wants to finish our playtime while riding me..which is a perfect finish, from my perspective.
[We used to bring a] "goodie bag" lol
different toys, oils, dress up clothes..it was hot each time and a marathon:)
enjoy

Thanks Italianstud59, for your reply. I always remember to pack some lube(s) & a toy or 2 when we travel anywhere. I take a water based lube, for use with toys and a silicon based lube for finger or PIV activity, as it's slipperier & lasts longer, during our playtime. I've learned using toys during our foreplay gets my Mary very excited & turned on, so that I can experience a smoother, longer lasting ride when I slide into her love tunnel.
Hmm, now you have me wondering if I need to look into that toy! 😜 Orgasms in under a minute? That would be groundbreaking for me. What a wonderful story! I love how you just enjoyed watching her experiment with the toy, then got her to ride you. Hot!
Just curious, why would a lady want to have an orgasm in under a minute?
From a guy's perspective, orgasms, as wonderful as they are, are not as good as the journey getting there.
I realize that for men, unlike women, it is a once-and-done affair. But, for my wife at least, the longer the journey, the more intense her orgasms are.
Glad you two are enjoying the present. I have a question do you use any other clitoral toys like this we have a Satisfyer & Womanizer & I’m curious if Mary feels a difference with the Cruise vs another toy like this?
I considered buying a Womanizer , as it was extremely popular around the same time I purchased the Cruise. Strange as it may sound, I thought that the sonic pulses of the Cruise would (?) / might be ( ?) more comfortable than the suction from a Womanizer , esp. when applied to the clit..thinking it being so highly sensitive, suction on that area may cause some discomfort with extended use. Can't honestly say I read any complaints, all that reported on the Womanizer seem to be pleased with it's results. Mary certainly enjoyed her Cruise, & used it enthusiastically, but does prefer the Sila over it. The other toys we've used in the past ( a fairly wide assortment, over the years, I don't recall any that were clit specific in their action. Many were simple varieties of vibrators, some are more a rabbit style. One rabbit style vibrator has a small wheel-like appendage with short , soft, rubber fingers. It spins in a circle and contacts the clit when the longer shaft is inserted vaginally.The shaft vibrates @ varied speeds & patterns, under the control of 1 button, the little wheel that spins against the clit has 1 speed, that may be reversible in direction & is controlled separately, (& may be turned of ) while the vibrator continues to work independently. One of my early purchases was a Hitachi wand, it came with several attachments..a straight appendage & one that's about the same 5" length, that's curved.
My Mary didn't choose any of her toy collection ,I bought them as presents & surprises for her.
She has been willing to try what I've purchased & has found enjoyment in their use. As I've stated in other posts, she has in the past relied on my using the toys on her.
Thanks, LLL.. if you want a fast orgasm, the Sona or Sila is probably the toy for you..as I described in my post, the 2 toys use sonic waves, not suction, to stimulate the clit, & any surrounding tissues. I bought the Sona for her as many customer reports & reviews on the toy almost repo9rted the same results.. very fast orgasms from the stimulation it / they provide. The Sila came out with changes that made it more comfortable for the user . I did laugh when I read your comment, " then got her to ride you." I laughed because I didn't get her to ride me, she "insists" on riding me..it's how she always finishes our play time. Even after I reach my orgasm, she often continues to ride me, getting another orgasm ( or 2 ) after I've started losing my erection. Her inner parts are swollen & sensitive from our earlier activity, so it doesn't seem to take much for her to come..& come again.
Lelo often runs sales on most of their products, if you sign up to receive their notices on their website. As their toys are a bit expensive, it's nice to find them on sale for 30%, 40% & even 50% off ..
Thanks for the feedback Oldtimer
you're welcome. I've always enjoyed & even relied on actual customer feedback on products I'm considering to purchase..Adult / sex toy reviews are highly subjectve , but still can provide helpful information.
I've been studying up, trying to decide on my first toy. I think you helped me decide. Thank you!
you're welcome. I believe most women that try either the Sona or Sila do find great enjoyment ( & many orgasms) with them, I hope you find joy & happiness with whatever toy you choose, Docs wife.
