The Mom Pt. 2
(A Detour)
Sorry for the 6 year delay between work and a pandemic this form of writing had to take a backseat. My plan is to write more during this summer and get this series going forward.
You may or may not want to read the first installment of this series. This story does stand alone fine.
After that first incident there was a bit of escalation. Escalation might be a mild way to put it.
My SO had completely stopped any intimacy with me and told me she wanted to split up.
This news was given shortly before a large gathering of "mutual friends" that knew all along my SO had planned on dumping me. I went to the event and put on a smart face, and frankly allowed myself to be quietly humiliated without anyone saying a word. But, the SO had pushed a button I did not know existed inside of me, and apparently she had mentioned a couple of intimate details to one of our mutual friends.
Being somewhat awkward in social settings and an introvert makes it difficult to talk to new people at first. Once, a rapport is established then conversations can be easy. The first few minutes are always the most difficult in these settings. After years of thought I believe my SO was having her way with the father of a friend of her daughter.
