If I wasn’t married you would be my girlfriend, that’s what he said to me. Then as I was exiting the door, he whispered in my ear, you are my girlfriend. All I wanted to do was watch the Super Bowl, the only time I pay full attention to football, besides the playoffs. What I think he really wanted to say is, I wish my wife would have come. At the watch party I attended, the men did all the cooking and all the serving. The women were told to sit back and relax. So when this guy kept offering to bring me things, I thought nothing of it; that was until the game was over. That’s when he said it; if I wasn’t married you would be my girlfriend.
Did he have that much disrespect for me and his wife that he felt comfortable enough to make the comment? Then to claim me as his girlfriend was an even greater insult, I’m too old to be any man’s girlfriend. I don’t want that title, unless I’m my husband’s girlfriend for the moment.
His comment got me to thinking that lately I have been attracting a lot of married men. Does something about me cast off the image of mistress? I hope not because I made that mistake once years ago and promised God if He got me out of the situation, I would never ever do it again. That is unless I’m acting as my husband’s mistress.
So wives be forewarned, not all women will react the way I did. Even if you don’t like football or other sports, fake it. I gained my interest in football because I wanted to hang out with my big brother. Husbands and wives, in my opinion, need to be the best hang out buddies. Men are visual and are easily distracted by the slightest movement of a woman, so be that slightest movement as much as possible. I’m not saying attend every sporting event, just as many as possible because there are women that don’t mind being the “sport fish”, I’m just not one of them.
I LOVE THIS!!! and it's not that you give off an air of mistress as much as you represent what he wishes his wife was... someone interested in sharing his interests. i think far too many women want to change men instead of simply accepting them as they are. if you meet one that isn't quite what you want, the belief that you can change him will result in one of two things, strife or somebody being really unhappy/unfulfilled in the marriage. i run into & away from a lot of married men, and i know it's not me seeking them out. there are few things as unattractive to me on a man as a wedding ring. his lack of self-respect trickles down to a lack of respect for his wife/girlfriend, and i'm supposed to believe that he would treat me any better? i'm not having that. GREAT POST!!!
ReplyDeleteLOL, I truly think that is what he was saying. One of the guys said this is the first superbowl he hasn't watched with his wife.
