Once again, I recently found myself strolling down memory lane. Whenever I do, I touch upon memories that bring up a wealth of emotions. Love, joy, anger, even disgust -- of my own behavior and attitudes as much as those of others. As I've said before, not everything I've done is something to be proud of. I'm not always the hero in my own story.
Then again, there are times when the morals involved aren't quite so clearly defined.
A few years after my divorce, I knew I wasn't ready to get involved in a relationship. That didn't mean that I wasn't ready to have some fun, though. I figured that as long as I was up-front about my intentions (or lack thereof), any women I dated would be able to make up their own mind about how much they wished to get involved.
Looking for something serious? I'm not your guy. Okay to play? Let's chat. As long as everyone knows the ground rules up front, what could go wrong?
At least, it
seemed
like a foolproof plan.
For reasons that have never become clear to me, there are women who take this as a challenge. Despite all evidence to the contrary, they were convinced that I didn't
really
mean what I said or - and this is probably more realistic - they believed they could change my mind.
Becky, though, was a special case.
The truth of the matter is that she may have had all the evidence in the world that we
were
'right for each other.' On paper, there were enough checkboxes ticked to convince her that we could become a couple (except for, you know, that pesky little problem that I didn't
want
to be in a relationship with her -- but more on that later). She was intelligent, and I
really
go for intelligent women. She was a geek, and I love she-geeks. She was funny, she engaging, and she was horny.
She was also
weird
.
I met Becky on an online site that at the time only "sort of" focused on dating. It was a social site that catered to different topics of conversation, social hangouts and, yes, the personals. We met through a mutual love of all things geek-like, and naturally the conversations turned more and more sexual.
When you talk to someone online with whom you've never spoken in real life (as I'm sure many people reading this might already know), there is a certain freedom. You can lie, or you can be as brutally honest as you wish. After all, there's no requirement to meet in person, so you can always cut things off before it gets too serious.
I chose to be brutally honest. I mentioned that my divorce had been rough. I wasn't looking for anything romantic, but could certainly use more people to chat with. If I got lucky enough to find someone who wanted no-strings sex, all the better. I wasn't going to push it, though.
"I can deal with that," Becky wrote. "I'm taking a bit of a break as well."
"Cool," I said, "I figured it might come across as a bit abrupt, but I do like to set expectations and avoid anyone getting hurt, too."
"Makes sense," she said. A pause. New line. "So, you wanna fuck?"
It was a joke, of course. Well, sort of. It was the best thing to say and immediately injected levity into the moment. I actually did laugh out loud.
I wrote back, "LOL! Sure, just let me take my cock out."
"What's it still doing in there?" she typed back. "I've had my dildo inside for at least fifteen minutes!"
"I guess I have some catching up to do!"
"Just don't be surprised if it takes me longer to respond," she said. "I'm typing one handed, after all."
"It may get pretty quiet then," I wrote, "Because I'll be doing that in about 30 seconds."
"Why so long?"
"I need to get the lotion."
"LOL!"
It was an odd thing to type, but I figured she wrote that because it was only a way to respond with something other than silence. Soon, I had my jeans around my ankles and my cock lubed and glistening in my hand. It felt good. It also felt good to engage in a bit of flirtatious play with someone who knew there were no strings attached for once.
"Okay, I'm ready..."
"About time," she wrote back instantly. "I'm already done."
"What? That was fast!"
"Yeah," she wrote. "I confess, when I started thinking about you getting ready, I couldn't help myself."
"What do you mean?" I tapped out with one finger.
"I can't help it," she typed. "Thinking about you getting hard because of me, wanting to touch yourself because I was doing it -- I instantly get pushed over the brink."
Her words were coming much faster now. She wasn't kidding; she was using both hands to type. I kept my hand on my cock awaiting every next line, but she was a fast typist and it didn't take long.
"It's my biggest fantasy," she continued. "It's my go-to jilling fantasy. A guy sees me and can't help himself. He's got to have me. NOW. Works every time."
"Well, if you were here right now," I typed, trying to not make too many mistakes, "I'm pretty sure I'd have to have you."
"Oh? What would you do?"
My cock throbbed, wanting attention. I had lubricant on my hand and -- as crazy as it may sound -- I didn't want to get it onto the keyboard.
Fuck it
. I grabbed a tissue and wiped off my hand so that I could use both hands to type.
"Like right now, I'd take out my cock and put it in your mouth."
"You typed that quickly. Are you still typing one-handed?"
"Not for that sentence, no. Or this one."
"That's a shame."
