“I haven’t done it in over three months because I wanted to be with you!”
“Well, allow me to drop my pants and let’s get it on!” I told him. But instead I showed him to the door. “You cannot beg me for money, disappear for four months, and then come and want sex and then to top it all off, he goes off in my own house because I will not give it to him!
“I am sorry, boo hoo, but it doesn’t work that way.” Poor baby!” I told him. Tactful I am not. So I warn you now. It is not that anyone taught me to be tactful. I failed KISS ASS 101 AND I DID NOT RETAKE IT. No one spared my feelings or the feelings of my little girl. I just wanted a father figure for her. A man to love her like he would love a child and teach her as a man is supposed to be loving, caring and strong. No one spared my feelings when her daddy came into the room and told me he wanted a blood test and to top it all off never show up for it. No one is going to spare Chris’s feelings when I tell her her father went away and he is never coming back. Why should we spare theirs? He left mad, I mean really mad. “If you want to be with me I want sex,” he demanded, so I showed him the door.”
“I do not want you and I do not want sex.
“You do not know what you messed up. I really care about you.” He told me.
“If you cared so much, you would treat me like the lady that I am and not a bookie. Keep telling yourself that.” I said as I slammed the door behind him. Maybe you will believe that and you will be able to go on, me, I have to find another way. I will use the truth and stay with that. I am free from another son of a bitch. Let’s step up next to the plate. There are so many daddies out there I just have to find the one that is willing. I just wish a nice handsome, intelligent man would find me for a change.
