For those of you who want wet, animal like sex, I think you need to move to another story. This is my true love story, and it happened just like I'm telling it.
It took me about 3 weeks to realize, my life was a real mess. I had left my wife and moved out, but I was hardly alone, you see my 14 year old daughter, and my dog came with me. But in a real way I was alone, for the first time in 30 years.
I had gotten my apartment furnished, bought enough kitchen stuff to cook a meal, which is kind of funny, since as I've always said I can cook 2 things 1 in chili and 1 is not. Supporting 2 households was a strain, since my wife was still living in our very lavish house, and continued to spend on my credit cards, like nothing had happened. Now that's exactly why I left in the first place.
As it happened I did find a few woman on some dating sites and started to get my life together. Now, it's not that I need a woman, but I've always loved women, and everything about them. Short, tall, thin, and heavy, I always see something good in everyone I meet and I find all woman attractive in their own way. I guess that's why I think most women I've known, personally or socially speak kindly of me. Something I'm very proud of since, as a person I am somewhat of a loner, I don't make long-term friendships as such, but people move through my life, and rarely stay. This is mostly my fault, I'm comfortable alone.
I guess that's why this story is so remarkable, as I never knew just how much I effected the lives of others, until something happened that I still cannot explain.
Having settled into a bachelors life, I was surprised 1 night when the phone rang and I heard a familiar voice, it was Joann, my girlfriend from High School, she had heard I was separated from my wife, and thought she would like to see me. We made a lunch date for the next day, and I hung up. My mind was spinning with questions, how did she hear about me, we didn't have any friends in common, and I had not heard from her in over 32 years.
I like to leave an impression on people after all I am a salesman, but 32 years is even more then I could imagine.
I showed up at the restaurant we choose at appointed hour, and waited at the bar, in a short while a very pretty older woman walked in, and I realized it was Joann, as she walk towards me I couldn't help but notice, she was a little thinner, had a few wrinkles around her eyes, but she was still just as beautiful as I remembered her.
We were seated and began small talk, like people do when they haven't seen each other for a long time she had 2 grown children, was still married, but the love had gone out of her marriage, if it had ever been there? As we ate, she told me how she had been keeping loose track of me for over 10 years through someone where she was working, as it turns out a good customer of mine.
Then she told me, something I will always remember, how she had never stopped loving me, all those years and how she married a very nice, if dull guy because after she heard I was married, she thought I was gone from her life forever, and settled for a nice guy who was a good provider.
I told her how nice it was that she still loved me, and that I had thought of her often with love, however she was a married woman and she already had someone. As we left the restaurant, we kissed goodbye, and I began to remember those soft, warm lips on mine so many years ago, and couldn't help remembering how much I had loved her then, and maybe I still did. We agreed that just talking now and then would be OK, but nothing else. Joann and I were very young when we were dating, and other then a little heavy petting, we never had sex, though when I broke it off she offered to, I think in an attempt to keep me, and I have no doubt that would have worked.
