My male friend, Manuel, for many years invited me over for dinner. He said he a surprise for me so I didn’t think twice about agreeing. I planned on going over to his house right after work.
Manny and I were friends since we were both in the same high school. We never were a couple or anything, even though we both had feelings for each other. I guess it was one of those situations where neither one of us wanted the other to get hurt if things didn’t work out.
Since I’ve gotten into the lifestyle of an open marriage, I’ve never even considered bringing Manny into the mix because we’ve been so close. He would be too shy to even do anything knowing that my husband would know about it.
Manny has been single for a while and I thought that maybe he was going to tell me that he finally found someone or something to that nature.
When I got to his apartment, I could smell the aroma of food as soon as he opened the door. He doesn’t cook so I already knew that he ordered some Spanish food for us.
