That innovation made air travel safer, and it also freed up Sperry to engage in other activities while flying the friendly skies.Since then, the mile high club has become a source of fascination and intrigue for many; 15 percent of people admitted to having sex on a plane in a recent survey. Jenna Leigh, who has been a flight attendant for over two decades, has seen plenty of people attempt to get it on in the air during that time. Some have been successful and others failed spectacularly, she told HuffPost.After reading her account, you’ll probably think twice about attempting membership.

Ask an expertA reader writes, “I met with a man with the sole intention of hooking up. We both knew this was the only thing that would come of the night; he was only in town for one night so I figured, why not? I'm recently divorced and needed that physical need met. We met up early evening and went for a couple drinks first and discovered we had a lot in common. We talked a lot about each other and laughed and had fun just being with each other. After the ‘date’ we did the deed many times before he left in the morning, and it was explosive and amazing and all things I've never felt before. I've never been comfortable staring into someone's eyes for a long time. I think I am falling for a one-night stand and he lives miles and miles away. Help?”Washington DC-based psychotherapist Elisabeth J. LaMotte, founder of the DC Counseling and Psychotherapy Center, is here to answer this week’s question. Here’s what she had to say:“Have the two of you kept in touch? Has he expressed a similar response to the experience? Have the two of you explored the possibility of getting together in the near future? If so, perhaps you have stumbled upon something special and this relationship is worth exploring. Check out the hilarious Amazon series Catastrophe about a couple whose one-night stand becomes a marriage despite the fact that an ocean divides the couple when they meet.“If you have not kept in touch — or if the virtual communications since the hook up do not involve making plans to spend quality time together in person — ask yourself if you have a pattern of choosing unavailable or otherwise unsuitable romantic partners. Sometimes the knowledge that a partner is unavailable serves to increase and enhance desire. If conscious or unconscious reservations about a long-term commitment are present, it is quite common to fall into this pattern. Fear of commitment does not always involve a hesitation to take a healthy relationship to the next level. It often involves an ongoing pattern of falling for folks who are not available because they are married or in a relationship with someone else or because they live far away.“You can certainly reach out to him to share your feelings and see if they are mutual. If the sensations you so beautifully describe turn out to be one-sided, you are better off without him. If you can feel this way with a virtual stranger, imagine what you might experience with someone who is more available and takes the time to get to know more about who you really are.”#TBT On Monday, Meghan Markle attended her first official event alongside Queen Elizabeth. All eyes were on the soon-to-be-duchess at the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey, two months before her wedding to Prince Harry.
