Hi there! My name is Andrea Dark, or well it used to be until about 8 years ago when I became Andrea Norman. My friends all call me Andie and you can too since I'm about to share some very intimate and personal information with you about how I became the happy person I am today.
Like I said, my name used to be Andie Dark, until my husband cheated on me with my best friend. I forgave and overlooked a lot of things in our 10 year marriage, mainly because of our kids, but that one I just couldn't overlook or forgive. After the divorce, I had pretty much given up on love. Even my subscription to the Hookup dating site wasn't giving me any good dating possibilities or even a decent one-night stand. Just no one peaked my interest, then I found this app called Lovebox. It was an app for everyone to just chat and flirt. I decided it couldn't be any worse than Hookup so I joined.
I joined several chatrooms, but most were boring. Until I found this one called "Pure Nudity." That's where I met Joe, Joe Norman to be specific. Joe is a few years older than me, but who cares, love isn't defined by age. Like me Joe had been in a long-term relationship with his high school sweetheart. They had been married for about 15 years when he found out his wife had been cheating on him. They divorced and never saw each other unless it involved their kids.
Joe and I didn't really interact at first. I just had this feeling that for whatever reason he didn't like me. One day, after I had gotten upset with the group owner of Pure Nudity and told them off, Joe asked me if he could send me a friend request, although puzzled I said yes. It was funny because I then told Joe that I had thought he didn't like me. Turns out that Joe had never talked to me for the same reason, but that he had hoped we would start talking. Joe and I started talking and he invited me to join his group called "Erotic Dreams." Joe and I started talking everyday and discovered how much we actually had in common and developed this undescribable connection. Neither of us could explain it, and I feared I was falling for Joe and falling hard. I didn't want to tell Joe how I felt because I figured that he would be like most men that I had found intriguing and live far away, and even if he didn't, that he wouldn't feel the same way.
We were just like two friends who had a lot in common, or so I thought. We exchanged pictures and sexted almost everyday, and some of those sexting conversations got rather graphic on both sides. The nice thing about Joe was that we could have just a nice conversation too and feel just as comfortable. Joe and I talked for over six months. We just kept growing closer even though we had never met. We joked about it, but neither of us had ever revealed or asked where the other lived. I think it was because we were scared to ruin it. Or maybe just too content with what we had developed. I knew I wanted more, but was also realistic enough to know it would likely never happen.
For me, living out in the country has it's advantages, no nosy or loud neighbors. But the downside is thay it does make shopping rather hard. One day I decided that I needed to get some new clothes and the nearest mall was two hours away. So after my normal conversation with Joe, I told him I would be back online later that evening as I needed to get some shopping done. We made an online date for later that night and I went shopping.
I hate crowds, but I went into the mall and started my clothes shopping. I found this really cute little black dress and I wanted to see it in the full length mirror, so I went and tried it on. I stepped out of the changing room to look at myself, and while looking in the mirror, I saw a familiar face in the clothing racks behind me. I was in complete shock as it was Joe! He hadn't noticed me yet, it looked like he was shopping for his daughter so I decided to play that to my advantage. One of the female workers came up to me and asked if I liked the dress. I said, "yes, but in all honesty, I think it makes my butt look huge."
I was watching Joe from the corner of my eye, and when I said that, he looked up, and I thought his jaw was going to hit the floor when he saw me. Trying to be coy, I pretended not to see him. I told the sales girl, "Oh well, I will take it anyway, maybe I'll eventually have a reason to wear it." I went back into the changing rooms and changed back into my normal clothes and gathered up everything I was going to buy. When I came out Joe was gone, I had hoped he would approach me, but I was disappointed. I went ahead and paid for everything and went and loaded it into my car. I decided I was going to go back in and eat something before heading home. I got my food and sat down to eat.
I was about half done with my meal and I felt someone come up behind me. Next thing I hear was a whisper in my ear of, "you smell just as good as I have imagined, but I bet you would taste even better." That voice so close to my ear and neck sent shivers down my spine, I turned my head slowly to see Joe squatting down next to me. I couldn't believe it, and I reached out to touch his cheek. He put hand on the back of mine and laid his head into my hand as I caressed his cheek, he then turned his head into my hand and kissed the palm.
The feel of his lips on my skin right then made me feel like I was on fire. Joe looked at me and said, "If I had known you lived nearby I would have asked you out a long time ago."
I told him that I lived about two hours away, but this was the nearest mall to where I lived. I was shocked when Joe responded, "For you, I would travel as far as long as it takes me to get to you." I felt my eyes tearing up at that, but before I could respond, I felt Joe's lips on mine. It was a soft and slow kiss. The kind of kiss you read about but never get to live out. I felt the tingles from that kiss through every part of my body. After that kiss, I knew I was a goner and didn't stand a chance. Joe and I exchanged phone numbers so we could talk more often.
From that day on, Joe and I were pretty much inseparable, we went to dinner at least twice a week, and if we were working we chatted online, well online when we weren't on the phone together anyway. Joe met my kids and I met his, and the kids all met each other and got along great. Joe often stayed at my house when both of our kids were with their other parent, not because we were hiding anything, but because I had a tendency to be rather loud. The kids were old enough they didn't care, but we did. Especially after they teased us about it one day.
Joe eventually moved in with us after selling his house about four months later, so that we only had one set of bills to pay. I had inherited my property and had some land so we decided to keep mine after several weeks of discussion. I was willing to sell and move closer to him. That was when he said it for the first time, "Andie, this was your grandparents home, and I wouldn't dream of asking you to sell it. If you'll have me, I will move here. Anything to be with the woman I love."
I looked at him in awe, but before I could even respond to his declaration, he dropped down to one knee and said, "Yes, I know it is the first time I have actually said 'I love you' even though I show it. We had both given up on relationships, but it is true, Andie Dark, I love you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you showing you how much you mean to me. Will you marry me?"
By the time Joe was done talking, I was crying and could only nod as I dropped to my knees in front of him. I managed to croak out "I love you!" in-between sobs. Joe just held me smiling the whole time. When I finally calmed down enough he pulled a ring out of his pocket, it was a black onyx stone surrounded by opals and he slid it in my finger as he kissed me.
I think the kids were more excited than we were when we told them, but needless to say, it was happiness all-around. It took us about three months to plan our wedding, Joe was involved in every aspect. He cut back his work hours to spend more time with me. He made a point of telling me "I have a reason to be home now."
Even though, I was happier than I had been in a long time, I started feeling like something was off. The sex with Joe was great and continued to be great. I just kept feeling he wasn't being honest with me. So about four weeks before the wedding I cornered Joe and confronted him. I don't know why, maybe I was getting cold feet and looking for a reason to run away, but what happened changed me forever. I asked Joe was he was hiding and despite his claims to the contrary I just didn't believe him. I looked him straight in the eye and asked, "Then why does it feel like you're holding back with me and not giving me everything?!?!"
When I made that comment, Joe looked a little guilty, and I felt like my heart was going to break in two with his response, "Because I am holding back."
I turned away with tears streaming down my face, but before I could go anywhere, Joe said, "But, my love, it's not for the reason you think it is." I stopped struggling and looked at Joe as he continued, "I'm holding back everything I truly want to do you. All those things we said when we were chatting? I really want to do those things to you, they weren't just words. I do have that kinky side to me, and I didn't want to lose you if you found out."
I just stared at this man that I loved so much and truly wondered how I found someone so perfect for me. I looked at Joe and smiled for what felt like the first time in weeks. I reached behind me and unzipped my dress and let it fall to the ground. All I said were three words that changed me forever, "Show me then." It was like a fire lit in Joe's eyes as he grabbed me by the throat and pinned me against the wall as his lips devoured mine. I will spare you the details of what happened that night.
We got married a few weeks later, a week after my birthday. In the few weeks leading up to the wedding, I felt like an insatiable vixen, but Joe was always willing to help. Joe worked the night before the wedding, and stayed at a friend's house just so he wouldn't see me the day of. Joe gave me a new toy for my birthday and told me to be sure to put batteries in it. Both of our exes took the kids for two weeks so we could have a real honeymoon. So after the wedding and the kids left, Joe and I would have the house to ourselves for two weeks. Joe showed me a side of myself I didn't know was there. We had made several modifications to our bed too, cushions, handcuffs, and straps.
The night of our wedding, after everyone left, Joe came into our bedroom twirling what remained of his vodka in his glass, and said, "Well Mrs. Norman, what do you want to do tonight?"
