Two years ago I would have never imagined I would be where I am now, but I’m happy and I wanted to share it so … here it goes.
The pandemic basically ended my marriage. We were fine before. We didn’t fight. But the passion was long gone, and the close proximity all the time made us both realize it was time to move on with our lives. It was clean, it was amicable and I got my own place.
So after learning how to be single and alone, the world starts opening up. I decide I’m ready to date, which is super scary. So I download the apps, and learn what an endless parade of dick pics looks like. Not great! Met a few guys for dates, but no one that was worth my time.
I had always been bi-curious, and one night I decided to open up to women too. Eventually I met this striking redhead about my age (I’m 42) and we just vibed. It was awesome. Then she told me she was married. Uh, ok. But her and her husband are in the lifestyle. I had no idea what that meant, she explained and I cautiously agreed to a drink with her. Again, I was vibing with her.
