Screen 22 of 24

And an opportunity is presenting itself. There is one man with whom I have some professional contact (although with whom I do not work), and also with whom I have enjoyed mutual flirting with for a few weeks now. He is very sweet and charming and has certainly been effusive with compliments. He knows I’m married, and love my husband, but we both enjoy our friendship. Anyway, he has asked me to accompany him for dinner at his cousin’s wedding in a couple of weekends. The reception will be out of town, and I know it will be a late night. Also he lives across the other side of the city, in the same direction as the wedding. In short, I know that if I go, I will be staying out with him all night. Or more to the point, after the reception I will be staying with him all night. I have no doubt that if I go, I will be having sex with my companion – something that both of us would be more than happy with.
