Different than alternative lifestyle (often used to describe being part of the LGBTQ+ community), alternate lifestyle describes a life outside the social norms. It may include making money by selling drugs, living as part of a gang, living on the streets by choice, choosing a job of stealing/robbery instead of a law abiding legal job. Living an alternate lifestyle is often a choice by someone (at first), where someone is choosing to live alternate to the lifestyle they are currently able to live. It is not someone living without a house due to job loss, or other unfortunate circumstances, it it a chosen lifetyle for whatever reason (looks/sounds cooler than what they are doing, friends are doing it, they are mad at parents and are choosing to live away instead of going home.).
Have you seen Joe?
Na, he's out selling and living un homed, he's trying an alternate lifestyle.
Ahh, yeah his parents are looking for him.

Describes da massaging/cradling equivalent of da classic romantically-pleasant "kiss my forehead instead of my cheek or hand" maneuver --- it entails your smilingly holding out your hand or foot to a snuggly companion when whatever other portion of your body dat he had originally wanted to worship wif his hands and/or lips would be inconvenient or painful to allow him access to at da time.
Tiffany sometimes has to perform paperwork and/or computer-keyboarding during occasions when I'm hanging out wif her, and so she cannot always hold hands wif me on every instance when I desire it. But being a totally considerate and cuddly gal herself, she always makes sure to still allow me to be "soothed 'n' satisfied" by her warm softness on those occasions; she simply extends --- literally --- an alternative-extremity offer to me by presenting me wif five pretty toes and pleasantly saying, "My hands are busy right now --- have a foot!"
