I was only 18 when we met each other, I was living with my mother in the Midwest. I was getting ready to begin my Senior year of high school, and I had been searching the internet for online friends; stuck in an unforgettable truth. I had lost my eyesight in my right eye, due to a torn and wrinkled retina. No freak unusual accident, just pure chance. To top it all off, my parents had finally gotten a divorce after 18 years of misunderstood, heartbreak of a marriage relationship. I was lonely and looking, for what, I had no idea. But I somehow found myself gazing at a website where talking about sex, all kinds of sex and positions was all it was about. It had simple but good 3D graphics and interesting forum topics.
After reading a few, thereby educating myself to a certain degree, I decided to create an account. Then I went on with what remained of my summer break, periodically checking into the website out of curiosity.
Since I had made the account I had happened to meet a young guy that was my age via yahoo and we hit it off, we talked and phoned each other regularly. But something was still missing from deep within myself, a part that was unwilling to fully trust this nice boy, who was handsome and kind to me. We chatted often about sex and even had cyber sex on numerous occasions. Yet it wasn't until a month before I had to return to school that I learned a deeper truth about this guy, Jay. You see it was during one of our chats about sex that I learned how much he got off thinking about a dog doing a girl, as in me. As shocked as I was at hearing such a notion, caring for him rather deeply I made a conscious effort to include his fantasy into our cyber sessions.... lying to myself as well as to Jay. I thought that caring as deeply as I did for Jay, meant that I had to consent to the ideas and fantasies that excited him, disregarding my own feelings and needs. Within two weeks of conducting myself as such, it began to wear me down mentally and emotionally. I didn't want to humiliate myself in this way, even though it was not physically real, it still felt real.
So thinking of my sex forum site I searched there, seeking questions and answers, wanting to read for myself what others were saying. Needless to say there wasn't much on animals. So I asked my own question to the site public, in general. Posting a question that was related to my situation, asking if it was a normal thing to find in a relationship? And what I should do about it?
A few days later I received one single reply by a user called hammerfist. His answer went like this: If this guy really cares for you he would never asked to to do something that makes you feel uncomfortable and If he Truly Loved You, he would never dream of asking you to do something that would harm you.
This one and only answer(still to this very day) compelled me to click the user's name to view his profile and send him a private message. His profile stated that he was between ages 50-60 and that he lived also in the Midwest. In my message to him I thanked him for his sincerity and fearlessly gave him my email address. ( A habit that I do not take lightly). Within a day or two we were emailing and IM-ing each other eagerly. Chatting and learning about one another as the summer days swept by, Dan was his name and he a wonderful, devoted, sexy gentleman who knew the ways to treat a woman. Charm was not something he flaunted or boasted of, but rather Dan had an calm air a confidence and truthfulness that I had never encountered in a man before. I liked it, was drawn to it and before either he or I realized it, we had developed feelings for one another. Which in turn made chatting with Jay tougher and more infrequent. Being finally honest with myself and him, I informed Jay that I was speaking to someone else and that I would need to make a choice between the two men before I started my Senior year. Shell shocked and hurt beyond words, Jay still hung on to my every word, unwilling to just drop me because of my seemingly rash choice to pursue a man 3 times my own age.
My mother had yet to fully discover what I was really up to, though vaguely aware that I was under some kind extreme emotional stress and excitement. I wasn't into sharing much of my love life on my sleeve, so I didn't say much to her.
Dan was everything that I had imaged of wanting in a boyfriend, and he went above and beyond any other teenage relationship that I had managed to survive from, he told me that he loved me but my heart was still timid and fearful. Sex was an open topic between he and I. While phone sex and deep conversations were what truly opened our eyes mutually to the bond that had naturally wound itself around us.
Feeling as if we had known each other for years when it had only been a few months. Mother had her suspicious looks and finally demanded one evening in mid September to know who exactly I was talking to, let's just put it simply.... the shit had hit the fan!
