I had a wonderful time with Paula, my Co worker today. We rode together to an event, and then went to lunch.

I’m married but have not felt the feelings of being in love for decades.

Walking back to the car, I steadied her with my hand firmly on her arms as she was wearing high heels.

Paula wore a short skirt as I almost anticipated she would. She also wore her hair in bangs as I have often complimented her on that look that makes her look like a woman in her 20s.

After the first time I took her arm, I simply offered her my hand the next few times and to my pleasure, she took it.

We walked into the restaraunt still holding hands and she stood by while I opened the door.

The young man inside smiled at us. A very attractive black woman and a tall gray hair white man with a mustache (a few years older than her). And he said, “I love the way she stepped aside and waited for you to open the door. I smiled and said, “I kind of liked it too!”

I’m happy I did not make a complete fool of myself and kept myself at least partially in check. I would have loved to have kissed her, but worst case…. you can imagine. Best case: where would the kiss end?

As I’ve said I Cant remember the last time I felt this attracted to anyone, and if I had the opportunity to be free and profess my undying love for her, it would be Paula.

Thank you for reading. I know I’m awful. But I just had to say it.
