Amy was surfing the web, and had been doing so for the last five hours. Her real world social life was essentially nil! Her normal weekday schedule was to work her eight to five job, come home, make herself supper, and either get on the Ham radio or surf the web. On weekends or holidays, her schedule was much simpler. She did the wash, did some minor cleaning and spent the rest of her waking hours on the radio or surfing the web, using snacks for meals so that she didn't have to leave her beloved radio or computer. Amy didn't dislike people; she was merely very self-conscious about her appearance. All through public school and then on through college she had picked up nicknames like "fatty", "tubby", or "fatso". She never let her hecklers know how deeply these names hurt her. During those school years Amy had lived in an area where the only acceptable body seemed to be an emaciated body with very large grapefruit sized breasts.
Of all the hurts that she had received the worst was repeated twice during her school years. In each of these times a popular boy had asked her to go to a dance. In each of these cases the boy canceled out after Amy had already gotten fully ready for the dance. Worse yet, the boy, with his friends in the car would tell her he wasn't taking her as she was walking out to the car. The humiliation was devastating.
Amy was very smart. She had, in six years of college, earned a master's degree in chemical engineering. She had had no difficulty in finding a good, high paying, job in her local area. She purchased an old farmhouse on ten acres of land. The drive into work was about forty-five minutes one way, but that wasn't a problem since her car was a hybrid.
Amy spent most of her time either on the Literotica website or using sites such as Cowlist.com, Catlist.com, or PureXTC.com to look at pictures of really well built guys. She liked to see pictures of handsome guys going at it with BBWs or handsome guys jerking off. Other than her dildo and vibrator this was as close to sex as she got. She had resigned herself to never finding "Mr. Right".
One weekend Amy decided that she would write a story for Literotica. She took her own problems and wrote about a girl she named Sue but in the story she latched onto a guy and they fell into a deep and meaningful love. Since Amy was an excellent writer her story was a big hit.
She wasn't prepared for the number of emails that started arriving. For the most part the emails were very complimentary, as usual for most writers there were a few "flame mail" ones too, but those she trashed.
Amy found that a couple of the emails were all but invitations to a date. This made her both very happy and very wary at the same time. One of the emails was from another author, named Pete, who was a member of Literotica. She went to his list of stories written and realized that some of her favorite stories had been written by him. Then she went to the Bio page. He was about her age, unattached and lived in the same state that she did. In the bio area he had left many of the labels blank. However, in the section where he could write a little about himself he indicated that he was still looking for his perfect woman.
Amy decided to respond to his email. She told him that several of her favorite stories had been written by him. Beyond that, she identified which stories meant the most to her.
Amy knew better than to get her hopes up. She told herself that she would probably never hear from Pete again.
It was about two weeks later that an email arrived from Pete. In the email Pete told her that he had just written a new story and that it now could be read. He told her that the name of the story was "My Weakness" and asked her to review it and email him back with her observations.
Amy immediately went to the Literotica website. It didn't take her long to find "My Weakness". The story was about a guy's longing for a beautiful BBW with an above average mind. The guy unfortunately lives in an area where everyone else only values the scrawny chicks with big boobs. The character in the story loved big boobs as well, but he wanted them on a woman with soft, smooth curves. The other characteristic of the guy in the story was that he was what some people would call a "Nerd" or a "Geek"; that is he was very much scientifically inclined.
This fascinated Amy. Amy wrote a new story. She was very careful in her selection of words. She submitted it to Literotica. The day it was added to the new stories page she sent Pete an email. She told him how much she liked his story. She also told him that it had inspired her to write one that was similar. Her's was called "My Dreamboat". In truth, Amy had written a story that was an autobiographical sketch of her own life. In it she identified her dream guy as being loving, kind, open to kinky sex play, and holding down a real job. She didn't make her character want lots of money, or an Adonis, or a Hollywood type leading man; she wanted a real human being with substantial depth. It was now time to wait.
The following day there was another email from Pete. He said that he loved the story and indeed wished that he could find someone just like the heroine in the story. For the next few months Amy and Pete carried on an Internet romance. Very soon, they realized that the other person sounded just like what they were looking for. During this time no photographs were exchanged. It was ideas and emotions that were exchanged.
Amy decided to take a large risk. She emailed Pete and asked him if he was within driving distance of her favorite restaurant in the area. She went on to say that she would like to meet him over dinner, and it would be her treat.
Pete's reply to Amy's email came back later that day. He said that he would like to share a meal with her, but he wanted to treat or go "Dutch". Amy responded with a question about what day and time would be best. This was a Thursday and Pete replied that Friday at seven would be good for him. He wanted to know if it would work out for her. It was, and they agreed to meet there. Amy said she would make the reservations and that Pete should ask to be directed to the table for Ms. Amy.
As soon as the details were set, Amy made the reservations and specified that the table should be on the outside edge of the main dining area and next to a window. Amy already knew that the only windows in that room faced the parking lot and entrance. Amy decided to go all out for this meeting.
She had a beautiful midnight blue velvet dress that showed a polite amount of cleavage. It was mid calf in length. She selected her favorite necklace which was black pearls. She did not opt for heels. She had some very pretty flats that went very well with her dress. She decided that her perfume should be Chantilly.
Amy arrived at the restaurant half an hour early. She had, in fact, made the reservations for half an hour early. This was one of her favorite eating places and she was known by the staff.. She asked to sit at her table and have a man named Pete directed to the table when he came in and asked for Ms. Amy's table.
While waiting for Pete to show up, if he was going to show up, she steadied her nerves with a glass of good wine. When it was approximately ten minutes to seven, she noticed a tall, ruggedly built, man walking towards her table. When he was within six feet of the table he politely asked, "Is this the table for Ms. Amy?".
Amy rose to her feet and replied, "yes, it is. Are you Pete?".
"Yup, that's me. I had no idea you were going to be so pretty."
Those words almost knocked Amy off her feet. Her response was in kind; "I hadn't expected you to be as handsome as you are either. I sounds like we have both been pleasantly surprised."
"What would you like to drink? I've been enjoying a nice Rhine wine."
"Well, normally I have an hour and a half drive to get back home so I wouldn't have a drink. But, tonight is special. For the meal I'll stick to coffee or tea. But, for dessert I may have a bit of a stronger drink."
"Where do you live, Pete?"
"It's not in a town. I have a reasonably sized dairy farm and live 'out in the boonies'. This is the closest big town to where I live. How about you?"
