I have a married couple I am very close with. Let’s call them Anna and Steve. I’m kind of their third wheel but we all get along very well and they never seem to look at me as a nuisance. We became friends as we lived in the same apartments about twelve years ago and we’d watch baseball together a lot. When they moved we stayed in touch and have gotten even closer.
Sometimes we have plans and Steve ends up working late so it’ll start just Anna and I. Now, don’t go getting ideas. We’ve never had any romantic or sexual encounter. I’d never do that. Although I’ve fantasized about her for years. She is slender with dark brown hair, a cute face and a beautiful body. B cup breasts and a nice figure. I may dabble with some older bikini photos of hers from social media from time to time. So yes the attraction is there. But I’d never do anything to act on it.
On one such night where Steve was late we had started drinking cocktails and he just kept getting later and later. I joked that hopefully he wasn’t off having an affair. She knew I was kidding but came back with a comment like “well, it would make us even”. As soon as she said it I could tell she had let something slip. I prodded a bit and she said it turned out she had carried on an affair with her ex years ago.
I think she wanted to give me so much detail because it in some way excused her behavior. What happened was they started dating in their early 20s but she had just ended a relationship of four years. The guy had come up in the past and she had always spoken of him with disgust. But now I think she does so to make Steve know she doesn’t like him anymore. As we all know long term relationships rarely just end with a snap of a finger. Nor do new ones begin that way. So there was a period that she was courting Steve and still meeting with her ex to get her things or talk through some stuff. In her words “and of course we’d always end up fucking”. I hadn’t expected such blunt language when talking about a delicate subject. Eventually Steve found out and was very hurt. Apparently they almost broke up over it. She said he spent the first two years of their relationship struggling to trust her.
It was a sad story to be honest. They worked through it and she said he shows no signs of jealousy now. Clearly not with her spending hours alone with me. She also made a comment like “sex just sort of happens when you’ve been with someone a long time. So even having broken up I wanted to still have that connection”. So while I get bad for Steve I also felt very aroused at Anna sharing her sexual side with me. She asked that I don’t bring it up and I told her of course I wouldn’t.
