I knew he was always looking at me. I could feel it. The feeling I got wasn't creepy. It didn't seem like a problem. I just wanted to know why couldn't my Son, my little boy that I raised from infancy, could not stop looking at me.
I have always taken good care of myself and now at 45, I actually feel better than I ever have before. There are a couple things that I would obviously like to reverse. At 5'6", I am still the same weight I was in college, 130 pounds. My reddish-brown hair lightly touches my shoulders, because I love to be outside and long hair just makes me too hot. I am still in love with my bright green eyes. My stomach and legs may have never been as toned as they are now. It's my breasts that I'm not crazy about.
I used to be in love with them, but age is taking a toll. I have a lot to be thankful for, but they just aren't what I want them to be. When I was younger my large DD breasts sat perfectly on my chest. I had the best cleavage of any girl I knew. Now, I buy the most expensive bras trying to achieve the same results. When I take my bra off, the force from them falling nearly pulls me down. They don't rest on the ground, but they definitely hang lower than they used to. I can say that I am still doing a lot better than many of my friends that are as busty as me. Most of them have nipples pointing at the floor. My still point proudly forward. I know, it's trivial considering how fortunate I am in every other category. I just miss the attention I used to get.
I've been single now for 13 years and I occasionally date. I haven't found too many guys very interesting. They all seem to just think I want to be complimented into a long-term relationship or marriage. I am definitely not looking for that kind of commitment. I just want to have fun without being too tied down to anybody.
I think I am extremely fortunate for my son to still be living with me. He's 21 now and about to finish college, but he hangs out with me during the days on the weekends. We always have a blast doing all sorts of different things. Normally, we find things to do outdoors like hiking or horseback riding. Living in Colorado makes finding those things very easy to do.
Recently we took a four-wheeling trip in the backcountry and toured lots of old gold mines. It was just Justin (my Son), the tour guide and me. We got to go into a lot of places people don't get an opportunity to normally. I think this is the weekend that I made the mistake that changed how he looks at me.
Previously I felt like I should be as modest as possible when I am with Justin. I didn't want to embarrass him or make him feel uncomfortable. I would act fairly responsible and lady like. I would also wear clothes that wouldn't attract too much male attention. The reason I did things different this weekend was because he was making me feel so...normal.
I hadn't felt like a regular person in years. I hadn't giggled uncontrollably or even really goofed off. Sure I made offhanded comments when I was with my girlfriends, but normally I was "Momma" or the Kathy, a programmer.
Over the past year Justin had been changing that. He made sure we stayed busy during our adventures out and he never let me be boring. He would always make joke after joke to keep me laughing. It felt great. I felt like was important and special to somebody other than my dogs.
The inherent problem with all of this was that my Son was the man making me feel this way. I just figured it was the next normal stage of our Mother/Son relationship, so I let my hair down, so to speak.
On the four-wheeling weekend I only packed clothes that I thought were cute, but practical for riding an ATV. My bags consisted of my short jean shorts and spaghetti strap tank tops. I had to pack a sweat top for the cool mornings, but the days were hot and we had to pack light.
I underestimated how sexy my attire must have been for two grown men taking a woman into the mountains of Colorado. The tour guide was constantly looking at me and giving me that creepy wink some guys do. My Son was a different story.
He would be looking at me, and I know he was because I could feel it. I would turn quickly to catch him and he would just give me a smile. Nothing crazy. He would just flash his most handsome smile to me. The same smile he uses in photos. That smile has made him the most photogenic person I know.
Girls are always swooning to him and I don't blame them. I made a great looking man with an even better personality. That personality landed in me quite a strange place, but I chose to ignore it all. I mean honestly, there's no way both of these young men could want an older woman like me.
No matter how stange those random scenarios were, the weekend was an absolute blast. I had so much fun and, like normal, laughed until my sides hurt. Justin had made me whole again.
Almost two months later and he is still giving me those smiles. It may be that I have chosen to wear the cute clothes I like and all men appreciate big boobs and cleavage. I am pretty sure I am reading way too much into this. His attitude isn't any different though, so it can't be anything weird for him. I still feel as comfortable as I did before. The only difference is that I get a lot more handsome smiles.
Waking up this early was never easy. Its 5 a.m. and my alarm is blaring in my ear. "We planned this departure way too early", I quietly mumble to myself as I walk towards Justin's bedroom.
I can hear him in there already awake. I open the door and see a very awake man throwing last minute clothes into his suitcase.
"Ready Momma?" he questions cheerfully.
Knowing I needed to be ready to go quickly, so we can get on the road I sarcastically replied, "Good morning to you too, Honey." Justin laughed as I left his room.
Preparing for this trip to California has been kind of stressful. The planning should pay off and the next week, while Justin is on spring break, should be a super fun time. The drive ahead of us will be long and we plan to stay in a hotel at least one of the nights. I walk into my bathroom and begin to brush my teeth.
As I move my brush to scrub my teeth, I can see my large breasts bouncing beneath the cotton nighty. My nipples are super hard! "Oh my god! Poor Justin just had to see his Mom without a bra and hard nipples," I think to myself. For some reason my heart began to pump a little bit as I went over the possible reactions he may have had.
Remembering that all men most likely love breasts, I can assume that he enjoyed what he saw. That thought makes me uneasy and strangely flushed, but it's better than making my poor Son feel grossed out.
Finished with my morning rituals, I saw at myself in the mirror. I'm covered in only a cotton nighty that is nothing more than an oversized V-neck shirt. I love the way it looks on me. My legs are fully exposed for me to admire and my breast look awesome because the "V" is cut perfectly, exposing just enough of the base of my breasts. For some reason I just love how it looks. The actual seem of the "V" lays in between my breasts on my chest.
"I'm going to wear my new sundress." I tell myself and make my way to the closet. I had decided not to bring I just because of how short it was. I thought it really was just too immature and Justin wouldn't like it. It also exposes a lot of my breasts. The straps cross in the back and come over the shoulder in half-inch thick straps that end in separate cups for each breast. My breasts lay in the cups nicely, but they are so big that they overflow.
Slipping the dress on over my head, with a smile ear to ear, I confidently say to my reflection, "Not too many 45 year old Momma's can pull this off!" Immediately I think of Justin again.
Thinking the situation through carefully, I think he won't mind and will want me to be as happy as possible. I just need to be careful to not let the bottom ride up too high or move in such a way that I become too exposed.
Downstairs I meet up with my tall, strong, handsome driver for this adventure. "Justin..." I trail off as he interrupts me.
