The Mystery Man

We met on eHarmony. He's older than I am- mid-40's. Very nice looking guy... tall, handsome.... and wow is he into me!!! Before we even meet (we've talked on the phone for a few hours) he sends me an email that says "Love ya Baby!!"

Okay, moving a little quickly there but I decide it's just his way.

Friday we're talking on the phone and he said he's dying to get out of work. Wants to tell them he has an appointment but he really doesn't. So I offer a suggestion:
"Come meet me for coffee after work."

5:30 PM we meet for coffee. He's immediately impressed. (So was I...) We order our coffee and go outside, sit and talk for an hour and a half. He's got his arm around me, he's kissing my cheek... we're getting along very well.

I tell him I need to get to the gym so we said goodnight and I promise to keep him apprised of my plans for the evening. We don't stop texting. He calls again. We talk. We're building a bit of a friendship here, and I can tell he's rather into me.

The next day we text all day long. Flirting, having fun, just basically enjoying our banter. We have dinner. Nice conversation, good food, just an over all good time. I tell him I really need to go home, concentrate, and get some homework done. He seems disappointed.

About an hour later I'm reading my book for school and all of the words are running together. My reading comprehension is close to zero as is my retention at this point. I call him. No answer.

He texts me about 20 minutes later. "Why did you call?"

"I changed my mind"

"About what?"

"You coming over."

"Really? How do I get there?"

"You have GPS?"

"Yes"

I give him my address and continue to attempt to read my book. About an hour later, he shows up.

I give him a tour of the place (It's a one bedroom apartment. Doesn't take forever.) and we go into the bedroom. The tv is on and we sit on the bed and lay for a bit. He leans over and kisses me. I reciprocate.

We're making out for a good 20 minutes when he asks me if I have any condoms. I say I don't. He asks where the nearest store is and offers to go get them. Nearest store is less than a tenth of a mile away. I explain where it is. He gets up, puts his shoes on and I walk him to the door. We're still kissing. He goes.


And that, my friends, is the last I heard from him. Went out for condoms. Never returned.


Double-You Tee Effffff.
