The reluctant exhibitionist.
I'll admit when I met my husband, I was a real prude. I'd cover up from head to toe in concealing baggy clothing. My parents were so sexually repressed and repressive, the subject of sex and sexuality was extremely taboo, and my father often called young girls in nice clothes hussies, and older women who dressed in nice fashionable clothing "mutton dressed as lamb"
I was told I had a great body by the two men I had slept with, but my low self-esteem meant I didn't believe them. I only shaved my legs and underarms, shaving down there?? Oh no, only dirty tramps and sluts did that!! Sex, well, that was for the bedroom, and under the covers, missionary position only thanks. Oral sex? Masturbation? No, not for me, I don't do disgusting things like that. As I said, I was a real prude. So, I decided to stay celibate, it was just easier I convinced myself.
I knew men would look at me, and give me the once over twice, but I told myself they were just desperate if they were looking at me. I also told myself they were checking out my good friend Anna. She was a curvy girl, with big bouncy tits and she loved to make sure you could see them. She wore short skirts that barely covered her jiggly bum and never wore panties. She told me she shaved down there so it was more comfortable riding her horse, but the number of guys she slept with only confirmed my belief about shaving down there.
I met a man who seemed to be acceptable to my parents, so we got married. I didn't love him, and he didn't show me any affection. All of my fears were confirmed when my husband cheated on me with a woman he dealt with at work. I duly left him and decided I'd be better off all alone, and I would never have another man in my life. I was quite happy with my prudish celibate lifestyle; I had no men putting pressure on me and wanting to do disgusting things that I didn't want to. It was a boring lonely lifestyle, but I had convinced myself it was the life I deserved.
I was at work when I first saw Steve. He was working with a consultant checking our workstations. I'd heard all the other girls talking about him, and how good looking he is. Steve is tall, well built, not skinny, but not fat. You could tell he went to the gym, but wasn't vain with it. Anna had known Steve since they were kids as their parents knew each other, she'd had a crush on him ever since. Steve had done his OE, and they lost touch for a few years, and they had both grown up from the preteens they had been. Anna had told me about him quite a few times, and that she intended to be with him since she had heard he was back in town.
Steve was definitely the centre of attention when he entered our workspace, and I could see why Anna wanted him. He really did look as good as she had said. Anna made sure all the girls knew she was making a move by going over to him and giving him a big hug and inviting him out for drinks. I couldn't understand why I felt dismayed, I didn't even know him, yet I felt that I wanted to meet him. To my surprise, Anna invited me to go along, and I accepted, hoping I'd get to talk to Steve.
As the time grew closer to meet Anna and Steve at the bar, I got nervous, my anxieties and low self-esteem were rearing their head again, and I was sure I'd make a fool of myself in front of Steve. I put on a pair of blue jeans and a sports bra followed by a big baggy top that covered my body as much as I could, and I set off for the bar to meet Anna. She had already had a couple of drinks when I got there, and was a bit tipsy already. I got a drink and joined her. She was wearing a very low cut short floaty dress; it was obvious it was all she had on. Her big tits swung freely, and you could plainly see her nipples from time to time and when she leant forward her tits were on full display and it would ride up and reveal her bum cheeks. She was already getting a lot of male attention. I looked positively frumpy next to her, which is probably why she invited me to come along.
Steve got a beer and joined us, Anna did the polite thing and introduced me to him, while leaning across the table to make sure he got a view of her very impressive tits. They chatted about old times, what they had been up to since they had seen each other last. Anna went to the bar to get the next round of drinks, and made sure she had to bend over in front of Steve to get her purse, revealing her bum, and with her legs slightly apart so he could see it all. Steve asked me how I'd met Anna, and we started to chat. When she returned, she sat next to him as if to put me in my place and prove to me he was going to be hers. She then put her hand on his thigh. She seemed a bit disappointed he didn't place his hand on hers, and made it plain he could, and do more if he wanted. Steve politely declined, and replied he always regarded her like a little sister, the look on Anna's face was priceless!! She was deeply insulted, she had never been rejected, and being rejected by her crush in front of her friend really hurt. She finished her drink, and hissed that the two of us were welcome to each other, and she made a beeline for the first male that looked at her. It wasn't long before they were kissing, and he had his hands up her dress. She kept looking at Steve, as if to say "you could have this, I'm here for you" but Steve was happy to chat with me. I felt really self-conscious, and told him I had to go home, as I wasn't feeling well.
I was surprised when Steve offered to walk with me. It's not safe for a good-looking babe like you to walk home he told me, I told myself it was just the drinks he'd consumed talking, he couldn't possibly be interested in me. Anna was not happy when she saw us leave together. We chatted as we walked to my house, and I was actually surprised that I was considering inviting him in!! Steve said he had to go, he was tired, and I took this as a rejection, and it confirmed to me that no one like him would be interested in someone like me. I was totally floored when he asked if he could pick me up at 9am for a cafΓ© breakfast together, I stammered that would be fine, went bright red and closed the door. Breakfast at a cafΓ© with Steve? Me? Why? Did he want to embarrass me? Would he even show up?
