This story is basically true. The names have been changed but the rest is about like I remember it. It may start a bit slowly but life is like that. Particularly when you're slow about picking up your cues.

I've been friends with Kim since the early 80s, when she and I both worked at the same company. Kim was delightfully packed and muscular woman with curly light brown hair. She always had a few extra pounds (which I love!) and incredibly firm large tits (ditto!). And she always kept her toenails painted bright red, which was very attractive and charmingly idiosyncratic. Kim and I shared a sense of humor, food interests, politics, and interests. We became fast friends.
And nothing happened. We were very good friends. After a couple years, she and I both left the company, went elsewhere, and kept in close touch. We continued to share jokes, news, and interest, and saw each other for lunch periodically. I was married, Kim was single, and while I certainly found her very attractive, we never even flirted.
And nothing happened. For years. We both ended up working at the same company again, a rather bizarre place that was fascinating and challenging and rather fun in a strange way. We continued to be good friends, doing lunch and talking about the office politics (which were incredibly thick). We both left after a few years and went our separate ways.
And still nothing happened. I realized that I was long overdue for getting a divorce and proceeded to move out. I started seeing Hope, a woman I'd known for about a decade. Kim and I were still good friends, still saw each other, still talked about things. After all this time, Kim was still single, unfortunately. I couldn't figure out why, as I'd always figured she was quite a catch.
And STILL nothing happened. After about 5 years, things with Hope were beginning to get a little strained. We both wanted wildly different things in a relationship and ended up splitting up, about which I didn't feel too bad. I figured it was time to stay single for a while and just relax. Which I did.
One evening about a month after my breakup, I was talking to Kim on the phone around 10:30pm. It was a cold night and I'd already curled up in bed; I rather assumed that she had done the same. We were just talking, so it didn't make a difference - shoot, we couldn't see each other. I was talking about my just-ended relationship with Hope. I didn't feel bad about it having ended, but it was a bit of a shame, I said. In retrospect, the best thing about the relationship, I said, had been the sex: Hope had been simply great in bed. Admittedly, this was a bit of oversharing, but I'd known Kim for the best part of a couple decades and there wasn't a lot we didn't talk about. We just never flirted.
Kim asked what had made Hope good in bed. "Oh, several things," I said. "I loved eating her. She was multi-orgasmic and I could keep her going for a long time before she was finally begging for me to finish her."
"Oh, my!" Kim said. "That sounds like great fun."
"She sure seemed to like it," I said, grinning.
"But you said 'Several things'. What else did you like?" Kim said.
"I loved her body." (Hope was a big woman with big, soft boobs, and very strong legs... rather like a taller version of Kim, actually, except that Kim was more muscular and her boobs looked like they were firmer.) "And I was able to make her squirt on a number of occasions, something she hadn't done before."
Kim said "Really?!?"
"Yup," I replied. "The first time it happened was about 3 months after we started having sex. We were going at it one night and, all of a sudden, we were both drenched to our knees. We stopped cold and the realization of what had happened hit both of us at the same time and we cracked up for about a minute. After we stopped laughing, we agreed that we'd finish up and go take a shower and change the sheets." Kim laughed at this, too. "We had this happen a number of times afterwards, though rarely as dramatically as the first time. We got to the point that we'd just put a towel down on the bed underneath us before we even started so we didn't have to change the sheets afterwards. A couple of times, it was so impressive, we even had to change the bed pad, which is a nuisance late at night." Kim laughed again and said "Anything else?"
"Oh..." and here I paused, thinking that this was definitely getting more intimate than I was feeling comfortable with. I didn't mind talking about it, it's just that I was talking about it with Kim and we'd never talked about this kind of thing with anything approaching this level of detail. "Yes, something else I really loved was that Hope loved sucking me off almost as much as I loved eating her. Most guys would put a good BJ on the top of their sexual hit parade," I said, "but that's actually second place for me. I just love eating someone out and feeling her tremble while I'm holding on to her. And there's just something about the way women taste that turns me on"
"Oh?" Kim said.
"Oh, yeah, definitely. Something I got to do with Hope was her kneeling over my face while I held on to her waist so I could lick her nice and deep. I always had wanted to try playing with her in a hammock, but we never got the chance."
"Ohhhhhh...." Kim said. There was a brief pause and she said, fairly casually, "You know, I've always loved getting eaten and I give incredible head."
I was struck dumb. I finally said, "Oh," in a small voice, not quite knowing where to go. I followed this with "We've never talked like this before," and Kim replied "Yes, but I thought it was time." "Oh," I said again.
An intelligent man, a man who could pick up his damn cues, a man who knew an opportunity when it was beating him over the head and shoulders, would have said "It's only 10:30; can I come over to your place and talk about this with you?" I have no doubt that Kim would have said "Yes," and even added something about what she might be wearing, or not, and we would've had one of the wettest evenings in my life. But as you might imagine, I was not able to pick up a cue and the opportunity was wasted. And nothing happened, still. (Idiot! Idiot!)
Nothing happened, that is, until Kim and I went to Gold's Gym together a month later. There's a Gold's not far from her place and I needed to work out to keep to my exercise schedule. Since solo exercise is a real bore, I invited her along and she was glad to do this.
We hadn't really talked further about our late-night conversation. We'd still talk on the phone and managed to have one sushi dinner together (another shared interest) and nothing was different... except that I couldn't stop thinking about Kim in sexual terms. When I looked at her, I'd linger on her ample curves, I'd want to stare at her great chest (and wouldn't if I thought she'd notice), and when I stared into her eyes when we talked—really pretty blue eyes—I'd also notice her very full lips, which I'd never once kissed and now wanted to, very much. And when I jerked off, I kept thinking about how pretty her feet were (they really were) and how I'd love to kiss each one of her painted toes and then up her calves until I was holding those strong thighs and eating her for hours. I imagined what she tasted like. It was hot stuff and I'd cum hard thinking about her.
For Kim's part, I hadn't noticed any difference in her behavior towards me: she was just as cheerful as ever when we talked and we both made moaning noises of foodgasmic pleasure when eating sushi (which we'd always done). I did find occasion to touch her just a little more when we interacted, which she didn't mind.
We arrived at the gym in separate cars. It was lovely spring weather and Kim was wearing an attractive cotton summer dress with a white pullover spaghetti strap top that showed off her shoulders and arms very nicely. We hugged hello, then went in to the locker rooms to get changed. I came out in my usual gym wear, workout shorts, sneakers, and a loose t-shirt. Kim came out a couple minutes later in a brown lycra leotards with white tights on her legs. Everything clung to her. I looked her up and down once and smiled broadly at her. She smiled back.
We did warm-up stretches and then hit the weights. I had a free-weight program that was building up my arms (which take forever to build up). Kim said she didn't do too many arm exercises, so she just stood back and watched. I noticed that she always stood at just the right angle so she could look up my shorts whenever I was lying on a bench. Hmmmm....
