Divorced MIL[F] I met on Tinder left the backdoor open for [M]e

A couple years ago, I was traveling with some friends down the west coast. During our last night in town, we went out to dinner and grabbed some drinks afterwards. We were in a loud bar, huddled around a tall round table, when I felt my phone buzz in my pocket.

I had hopped on tinder earlier that evening, just for the hell of it, while my buddies were getting ready. I looked down at my phone, evidently I had a missed a few matches while out and about, but it was the most recent match notification that caught my eye.

Sarah (let’s call her) was a curvy, blonde woman. She appeared to be about a foot shorter than me (I’m 6’3″) and had a cute mom bod with huge perky breasts, high round cheekbones, and a warm, adorable smile. She was also in her mid-late 30’s (10 years older than me), which was intriguing.

My phone buzzed again. “Hi there! I like your beard.” Sarah’s message read.

“Why thank you. I like your smile. What are you up to?” I replied.
