THE FALL-BACK GUY

 

Kitty has an old/new friend. Let’s call him the Fall-Back Guy for now but I am open to suggestions if any of you have a better nickname for him.

He’s younger than Kitty by about 9 years. We knew each other in school. He followed Kitty around like a little puppy dog and was the cutest thing. At that time Kitty was newly separated from Ex#1. I had a two-year-old and was in the midst of a terrible custody battle and divorce. The Fall-Back Guy was all of 19 years old. Can you imagine your 19-year-old son bringing home an older divorcee with a kid?!?!?!

So, a few months ago Kitty went looking for The Fall-Back Guy on social media. It turns out he’s quite accomplished in his field. Unfortunately, he lives cross country and in a completely different time zone. Bummer!!!

Luckily, he recognized Kitty right away and we have been texting and talking on the phone ever since.

So, The Fall-Back Guy is currently separated from his wife who coincidentally was a divorcee with a toddler when he met her. Poor Fall-Back Guy had an indiscretion as we all have and was caught. He is regretful and fighting to save his marriage, but I get the feeling he’s keeping Kitty on the hook as a back-up plan if you know what I mean.

Poor, sweet Fall-Back Guy! If he only knew what he would be getting into!

Kitty hasn’t been with many younger men but he’s just so stinkin’ adorable and talented that I may have to give him a little piece of Kitty.

Time will tell!

EXCITING NEWS!

Hello, Friends!!!

How have you been? I cannot tell you how much I have missed hearing from all of you. Well, guess what...Kitty is back!

I have some super exciting news! I will make the official announcement soon but looking for your support so STAY TUNED!

Something interesting that I've concluded is that even though I'm living and loving my vanilla life, I will always have a secret life. I suppose we all will. I am okay with it and not ashamed but there are just certain aspects of my life that I cannot share with others. I'm sure at least some of you can understand that.

Anyway, I will be back with my news ASAP.

Years Later

 I haven't seen XXX in years which is funny because we actually live in the same town now...opposite sides of town but still...

I still think about him, wonder about him. Is he still married? Is he happy? Probably not. He's just not the happy type but still, I wonder.

So last night even though I was picking up takeout from a restaurant just down the block from his house...a restaurant we used to joke about being for old people, I was somewhat surprised to see him walk past my car with his dog. He has a DOG!!! I don't see him as an animal lover. He looked kind of strange so I wasn't quite sure it was him. 

Without thinking I waved and smiled. He looked like he vaguely recognized me. I rolled down my car window. We exchanged pleasantries very briefly. "How are you?" yadda yadda. I made a quick joke about the restaurant.

It was a 60 second exchange and then I drove away passing him one last time but looking the other way. We pretended, I guess. HE pretended...

...that he didn't used to text me in the morning to meet him at his apartment after work.

...that he didn't used to fuck me from behind while we watched in the bedroom mirror

...that I didn't ride him reverse cowgirl style until we both came

...that just like the others he deceived me and discarded me for what he thought was someone better.

For those 60 seconds I pretended...

...that he didn't make me feel worthless by discarding me.

...that he didn't deceive me.

...that he didn't pretend to keep me close to make sure that I wouldn't tell his bat shit crazy wife.

...that I didn't cheat on my husband who I now realize was at one time the love of my life.

Years later...
