My Love Life At University Pt 01

During Freshers Week I joined the Glasgow University Gilbert & Sullivan Society and the Glasgow University Debating Club.

THE GILBERT & SULLIVAN CLUB

The G&S Soc is unusual since it allows non-students to join. They put on 2 shows each year. It was here that I first met Vera, who was 20 years my senior. She wasn't a student but was an accomplished singer and actress.

She played the elderly Ruth in "The Pirates of Penzance" while I was in the chorus as one of the (cowardly) Cornish Policemen. I have a fondness for older women and I fancied Vera. I liked being in her company.

THE AFTER SHOW PARTY.

One of the many joys of being in a G&S production is the After Show party. The person who played the Pirate King was a babe magnet, and the girls who played 'the bevvy of beauties" flocked round him.

I am not a great drinker and I am not a handsome hunk. I am also a bit shy when in social situations. I drank too much and woke up the next morning feeling rough.

But I was shocked to find that I had Vera as a bedmate. I assumed that I was in her house. I was naked and Vera wore a cotton nightie that hid her beautiful, large tits.

Vera said "What do you want to have for breakfast?"

I replied "Scrambled egg on toast and white coffee with no sugar would be great."

I couldn't recall leaving the party, nor how I had got to sleep beside Vera. I didn't know if I had fucked her, but I suspected that I had.

Vera said "If you need the loo put on a dressing gown, I don't want my son seeing you in the all-together. He is in the other bedroom. His name is Peter. He's 14 and can be stroppy, but his heart is in the right place."

Vera wore a wedding ring.

She added "My husband left me a decade ago to shack up with a younger woman. He is a Catholic and doesn't want us to have a divorce. But give the bastard his due, he is good at maintenance payments."

I said "So, technically, you and I committed adultery last night. I hope he doesn't come in with a gun."

Vera mock-smiled and asked "Am I just another notch on your belt?"

I replied "I have only 1 other notch. And she was a one night stand. How about you?"

Vera replied "I have 3 notches, but nothing serious. Men don't like women with a son. Am I just a post-party lay?"

I said "I'm not put off by Peter, even if he is stroppy. You are sexy and talented, and nature has been kind to you, unlike Ruth."

In the play Ruth is described as "on the whole plain" and she has "the remains of a beauty".

I said "I want to meet you again. How about going to the King's Theatre for a show? Would Peter like "Return To The Forbidden Planet?" It is billed as "Shakespeare's forgotten rock and roll masterpiece", I.have seen it and I can see why it won the Olivier Award for Best New Musical.

VERA AND I BECOME AN ITEM

I thought that Peter might not like the rock and roll musical,

I said to Vera "If your son doesn't like the show we will all leave together during the first interval. But I honestly think he will enjoy the music."

Vera said "You are the first man who has invited Peter and I on a date."

I was pleased.

Vera asked "My son will be 14 next month. Do you mind if we take him for a burger at the Ubiquitous Chip. It's something that I reserve for his birthday treat."

The Ubiquitous Chip was (and still is) a high-class eatery in Glasgow's West End.

I said "Its little wonder that you reserve it as a birthday treat. I'll part pay for it."

Peter agreed to go to the show and we enjoyed it.

The next month all 3 of us enjoyed going to the Ubiquitous Chip. Peter got used to his mum and I being an item. I often stayed overnight and slept with Vera.

They invited me to the Chip for my birthday treat. It amused me that Vera's husband was financing his wife paying for my treat while I fucked his wife regularly. Sex with Vera was pleasurable for us both.

AGISM

While I liked being Vera's bedmate, I was also ashamed that she was so much older than I was. I feared the reaction of the other Glasgow University students if they knew I was sleeping with a woman twice as old as I was.

SECRECY

Vera's house was a mile away from the University. This made it easy for me to see her without anyone in the University knowing. I always arranged our dates in places that University students didn't frequent.

One example of this secrecy was when Vera and I went swimming. I could have got Vera "student friend" admission to the University swimming pool. But then everyone would have known Vera was special to me.

Instead Vera and I swam in her local public swimming baths. They weren't a patch on the University pool.

TINA AND THE DEBATING CLUB

I became quite proficient at the art of rhetorical presentation because of joining the Glasgow University. I had been with Vera for 8 months and I was now in my 2nd year at University when I first met Tina.

We met at the Inter-University Debating contest. I was on the Glasgow University team and she was on the Glasgow Caledonian University team. The 2 Glasgow universities played each other twice each academic term.

Glasgow Caledonian University was then only 3 years old and did not have a great debating team. But Tina was the pick of the bunch. She had a gift for using extravagant metaphors. She was also strong on her preparation.

But Tina had to learn how to accept (and use to her own advantage) interventions. I suggested that she watched You tube videos of comedians who use their skills to silence

Her team leader needed to get used to summarising the debate (without introducing new arguments) and to influence the judges.

After the debate ended many of us went to the pub. One night Tina was unusually quiet.

As she and I went towards the Hillhead tube she said "My boyfriend dumped me last night."

I obviously said the right things because Tina and I ended up in my bed. Sex with Tina was much better than having sex with Vera.

Tina and I met and we had sex regularly after that. I am not God's gift to women but I felt like a stud. I had 2 women at the same time. Even better, Tina told me that I was a better lover than her past boyfriend. It was music to my ears.

Tina lived in a student hall in the centre of Glasgow and Vera was in Partick. I was studying and living in the West end. I was having a great time fucking 2 women and studying and debating and doing Gilbert and Sullivan operas.

The only better arrangement would have been if Vera was Tina's mother and both knew I was bedding the other. Because, like many people, fucking a mother and daughter is the greatest sexual fantasy.

TINA GAVE ME THE BEST EVER FUCK

One night I was particularly randy. I had taken the lead position for my University team on the motion "That this house condemns the rising cost of the Scottish Parliament building."

For background, Donald Dewar had said that the building would cost no more than £6 million. It was soon clear that this was wishful thinking. Even as we debated, cost estimates had risen to £20 million. The building was eventually built three years late with an estimated final cost of £414 million.

I was on a high, better than any drug could give me. Tina was there watching me. I couldn't wait to get back to my room and fuck her.

We didn't go to the post debate booze up. We just walked the half mile

I hadn't ever had such a wonderful fuck. I took Tina from behind. I had an orgasm, shooting my cum into her vagina. But I still continued thrusting. I kept it up for another 2 minutes until I was physically exhausted.

My cock was sore.

Tina and I then got dressed. I walked her back to Hillhead Underground station and she went back to her student digs.

TWO TIMING

Vera, who was 40, didn't know that I was also shagging a 19 year old student.. Tina didn't know about Vera. And I worked hard to ensure neither knew of the other.

In plain man's language I was "a 2 timing bastard".

SHOULD I GIVE UP VERA?

Occasionally I had a guilty conscience about being a 2 timer.

My friend suggested that I dump Vera. But I didn't want to give her up. Tina gave me better sex and the Scottish Parliament debate night she had excelled herself.

COMPARISONS

Tina and I shared a passion for debating. Vera and I shared a love for G&S and for swimming.

I spent the night with Vera, whereas Tina went back to her digs once we had fucked.

I had a thing for older women and therefore Vera pleased me in a way that Tina couldn't ever do. Also I had a good relationship with Vera's son.

Tina was younger than me and we could experiment sexually. Vera and I mostly had missionary sex. But it was comfortable and inviting being with her in her bed.

Vera was technically still married with a teenage son and Tina was single.

I could see Tina at University events (both her university and mine) whereas I would commit social suicide if I acknowledged Vera as my lover.

PETER

Of course the greatest difference was Peter, Vera's son. I got on well with Peter, who was keen on cycling. I bought a second hand bike and Vera stored it.

Peter and I often cycled the 10 miles along the Clydeside Cycle path to Dumbarton. He was only 7 years my junior but I felt like I was his father.

PLEASE DON'T LEAVE MUM

One time, as we rested by the Erskine Bridge, Peter said "Please don't walk out on Mum, like Dad did."

Peter's words made me feel like a cad. His mum as a friend with benefits. Peter obviously saw me as a replacement for his own father.

I wasn't sure how to explain adult arrangements to Vera's teenage son.

Lamely I said "Que sera, sera. Whatever will be, will be. There's no guarantee that love lasts forever. But I guarantee that I won't ever run off from your Mum. I will try to resolve any difficulties that arise."

Peter had made me realise that Vera was more than a friend with benefits. I now felt worse than a cad. I felt like a first rate shit.

Peter and I cycled back to Glasgow, instead of going onward to Dumbarton. Vera was surprised that we were back so soon. I pretended that I had an assignment to finish.

I kissed Vera and walked home in a blue funk.

RESOLVING THE PROBLEM

I wasn't ready to honestly say "I love you" to her. Nor did I fancy giving up Tina.

But I knew that I must make a decision before my final year at University. I knew that I couldn't have the lifestyle I enjoyed if I was to get a First Class degree.

MAKING MY MIND UP

I decided to date only one woman and to make the decision which one it was by the end of this academic year. This meant that I had 6 months to dump one of them.

I arrived back at my student digs with the satisfying feeling that I had made an important step forward. By the start of my final year I wouldn't be a 2 timing shit.

It was 2 events that made me popular with one and hated by the other.

To be continued.
