Story for the Worker

I had a very very brief encounter with a man last summer and I can't say that that brief encounter was all too pleasant. For starters, he was short - like if I stood on my toes, I'd be taller than him. Plus his head looked kinda weird, like he should have been a tall person. The only short man I'm going out with is Prince - he's sex on little legs - an idol, giddily lovable beyond belief.I don't know why I was intimate with this guy. I shouldn't have. Actually, I do know. I'd been feeling under the weather for a while, hadn't been dating men for a longer while and I guess I paid attention to someone who paid attention to me. He was definitely not my type, hence the rather brief encounter. He wasn't that great in bed either - he couldn't give me a normal hug without getting a hard on. And when we were intimate, he always kissed me, then aimed for my tits and vagina as if that's all I was made of, as if other parts of me weren't sexually sensitive. A sex idol he definitely wasn't, let alone a love god.

There's a night when he was so quick, I didn't even notice he'd done anything. Then, he went and washed his hands and came to bed. No finding out if I'd been pleased. Like I said, sex idol?, I think not.

Don't get me wrong, he was a nice guy. Good cook. Giving in some ways. But just not my type and not because of goings-on in bed. If I liked him, then the bed stuff wouldn't have mattered as much. We could have learnt together. But I knew I went for him 'cos I was lonely. I didn't like him that much. And that's not a reason to hang around someone.Took me a while to shake him off though. He was a bit obsessed - probably because I wasn't that interested in him - and I told him that I wasn't. I reckon if I was crazy about him, he would have treated me like shit, but because I wasn't that into him, he was like a lovesick puppy and found me lovable even though I was quite blase about the whole thing. I think he was in love with being in love 'cos I didn't really understand how he could keep on coming back for more when I wasn't that bothered.There's someone out there for everyone so I'm sure he'll find a woman who'll find him utterly adorable and lovable (and vice versa). It just ain't gonna be.
