There were men and women everywhere of all ages, shapes, sizes and race. I felt very alone and vulnerable. It wasn't long before a middle-aged man try...ing to like twenty approached me and offered to buy me a drink. I declined politely. Then a bull dyke, fat, short hair the usual man style thing, and tried the same tactic. I declined her offer too. I was beginning to think that this was a total waste of time and money. Then, across the room sitting at a bar, perched on a high stool was the most. I stood up and walked down the passage to the back room. The door to the room was slightly open and I could see it was darker in there than normal. Leaning forward to the gap between door and door frame I peaked in and saw Eddie and Dorothy stood together. They were kissing passionately and Eddie was running his hands all over Dorothy.“I’m still not sure about this” Dorothy said, “are you k**ding, he’d told me that he’s been wanking off continuously over the thought of you naked” Eddie said.. Since I last wrote to you I had moved up in the world of acting, having had a relatively minor role in a tv drama series that had been filmed in and around our fair city and which had made me a minor celeb. It had coincided with my then girlfriend, the delicious Indian doctor, Anita, deciding she needed to return to her sub-continent and pursue her dream of improving health care for the poorest of that country’s children and women. I had not wanted her to go but I loved her and I knew she’d. Life sucks.Mildred held up a little bit better than I did. She did some kind of exercises on a regular basis. She also watched her weight better than I did. She had to stay in shape, so she could pick up guys.Now I don't want to make things sound worse than they really were. Mildred was not going out and constantly picking up guys to have sex with. She was discreetly having affairs. It was only one guy at a time, and maybe only one or two different ones each year. I don't know if they ended up.
