When our relationship was in full bloom we went to bars together most weekends. Of course I would foot the bill for all the drinks, but I was also usu...lly stranded watching her purse while she went off and danced close with strangers right where I could see. Then she would come back looking for drinks and say nothing about it, even though I could see her across the bar dancing up on other guys. One particular night, I was “watching her purse,” but really I was watching her as she danced close. As I drove back to my place Becky said "That was easy" I turned to look at her and we both started laughing.

Linda was barely able to walk. Becky chased me out of my bedroom and put Linda to bed. She came out and we talked for a while. She thanked me for helping especially because she knew Linda and I didn't get along. ” And that was boring.Boring….

No guilt.Robert walked in the kitchen, he was wearing his loose shorts, they hung low on his hips and Susan thought.
