He Has A Girlfriend And So Do I

Dare I? Bi?

I woke up in a strange apartment, pantiless in a nighty that wasn't mine. I heard a door open ant turned to see a smallish woman smiling at me in panties and her arms across her breasts. "Hey sweetie" she smiled and dropping her arms walked over to me. My mind clearing I recognized her from the night before. That's how I got into this relationship.

I had no experience with another woman. My husband of seven years had gotten into an affair with a young woman at work. I walked out and was lonely and frequented the bar where I met her. I didn't go to bed with any guy that hit on me and truthfully I don't remember how I went home with her. But there I was, half naked, this extremely attractive girl, because I no longer thought of her as a woman, 22, a graduate student at UT, smiling, small breasts, and she crawled on the bed and kissed my lips "coffee, tea?, shower?"

I found my panties in the sheets, but she pulled a pair out of her drawer and I put them on, they fit, tight but fit. I crossed to the bathroom, she stood leaning against the sink while I sat on the toilet. She took her toothbrush and adding toothpaste, "we kissed, remember", and she put her finger on her panties. I brushed my teeth.

Over coffee I thought of my husband, was he smiling at that girl? What would he say if he knew I had been with a girl myself? I cold nervous chill overtook me, I was cheating on my husband. I apologized to my new friend, I just couldn't recall her name. Is this how it happened? A guy picks up a girl and that's all it is? A girl picks up a woman? Who picked up who?

I was polite, told her she was sweet, I regretted that word immediately, that I wanted to see her again, to start with lunch at the Vietnamese Bistro the next day. I went home to my husband, that girl was there. I was polite, told her she had to sit and not interrupt I was the wife. I told him about the last night girl, I asked him to come to lunch and approve or disapprove of her. To bring his girlfriend, I wanted my date to approve or disapprove of my husband's girlfriend. After all the two girlfriends were the same age. Both cute, real life girlfriend material.

Things didn't go too well, my husband took over, he interviewed her, what were her intentions? His girlfriend got tired of eye sparing with me, of me putting my hand on my husband's hand to quiet him down. I guess I shouldn't have said "if you have a girlfriend I want a girlfriend too". I was very forward telling my husband no man other than him had ever gone there, I would never cheat with a man.

I suppose that the old 'open marriage' trope continues to apply, His girlfriend is still around, I've built a real friendship, affectionate relationship with 'my girlfriend'. The most difficult part is the age difference, sometimes I bite my tongue. Ten years doesn't seem that much, I wonder how my husband puts up with it. Now that I know 'that' girl better, she talks too much, play acting adult conversation.
