Laura
My lesson began when I had been divorced for a couple of years. My marriage had gotten stale after our daughter, Diane or Di had gone off to college. It became obvious to my husband and me that we were living together more like roommates than lovers. We had grown apart concentrating on our careers while making money to put Di through college. We'd both been very successful in that endeavor. Since she was gone, we really didn't do anything together. We tried counseling, but that just made it more obvious we were friends, not lovers.
The divorce was amicable, he got most of the cash while I got the house. Di had seen it coming in her sophomore year. She wasn't shocked that we were separating then eventually divorcing. What came as a shock to her and especially to Dave was my confession that I was interested in future relationships with women and not men. I'd had a couple of flings in college and a tryst on a business trip during our separation. I loved how she made me feel sexually and emotionally.
It took some time for them to adjust, but they did which I was truly grateful for. During this time, Di met a guy in college; fell in love and married soon after graduating. She was following in my footsteps which I cautioned her about marrying so young, but my advice to wait fell on deaf ears. I never would have guessed how close that little piece of fruit would fall from the tree. About a year after they wed, Di and James had a little girl, Cassandra. She became the light of my life even though at forty-seven I felt I was too young to have a grandbaby.
My learning experience began on July fourth at a half marathon I was running. My dating life hadn't been going well up to this point. I'd sort of settled into a couple of 'friends with benefits' relationships thinking I was content with them. This was until I met Claudia. It was at the water station at mile six for me, she was running the marathon. I'd seen her tight ass and glorious physique ahead of me for at least a half mile before catching her at the station.
I managed a brief 'hello' as we sipped electrolytes departing the stop. I asked if she wouldn't mind if I paced her the rest of the way in. She smiled, looked me up and down then told me she didn't mind at all. We chatted the remaining distance, getting to know each other and discovering commonalities.
Claudia had an amazing body. She was taller than me by about three inches at five foot nine, toned, and from what I could tell, the only fat on her were her breasts which weren't that big, but they did stand out in my eyes. Her hair was a flaxen blonde. She wore it in a ponytail that swished back and forth as we ran which I found very attractive. It turned out she was one of the track coaches at the local community college. She was running the marathon as a fundraiser for a youth group. That's why she was so damn fit.
By the time we finished the race, we'd covered many topics, mostly about keeping fit and running. After we received our medals, we cooled down and stretched. She asked if I'd like to meet her some time for coffee. I'm not the most outgoing person in the world, I agreed, blushing a bit that she would ask this old lady out to get to know her better. I was secretly hoping it would lead to more. We exchanged numbers then went on our merry ways.

I met Laura last July fourth while running a marathon. She actually introduced herself which was a bold move on her part I was later to discover. Despite her good looks and great body for an older woman Laura was quite shy, a tad on the submissive side. I found her extremely attractive since I'm more alpha delighting in women who aren't quite as confident as I am. We got to know each other somewhat during the run and when it was all over I asked her out innocently for coffee, hoping to seduce her at some point if she wasn't into girls already. I do love a challenge. She accepted. I grinned as she blushed while I gave her my number. I knew I'd made an impression, she'd just taken the first step into my bed.
I called her about a week later and we set a date for coffee. Since school was in the Summer session, I was doing some training off the record for a few of the students and had lots of free time. We met for coffee probably three times before she confessed she found me attractive.
The first time was almost totally innocent. I'd touch her hand 'accidentally', laugh at all her jokes, made her blush a few times, which I thoroughly enjoyed, and treated her like a princess. The next two times I got a little bolder, complimenting her just to watch her blush, 'accidentally' brushed her leg with my foot while staring into her beautiful blue eyes.
The third time did the trick. I suggested we go someplace and we ended up in my bed for the remainder of the day.
