I know I’m going to get a lot of negative responses but I’ll confess anyway. I am a married man who has been having a on and off again affair with another woman. This other woman is married as well but, with her marriage failing she has found comfort in my arms and bed. Now here’s the real kicker, the other woman is my own mother.
Fifteen years ago when my step father was dying of cancer my mother was in a very sad and lonely place. We spoke on the phone for many months while she was going through this rough time in her life and we began to share intimate details of our lives. We both learned a great deal about the other, not just as a mother or a son but, as a man and a woman.
When I went home to visit her for Thanksgiving for a week, I knew from the moment we embraced that something was different between us. My mother was very over affectionate with me and I returned her affections in kind. My first night home my mother exposed herself to me intentionally, although I wasn’t sure at the time.
When I left to go to bed she hugged me before I could protest and felt my excitement. She didn’t say anything to me but, I’ll never forget the peculiar look in her eyes as she held me close to her as if she was enjoying it.
That very night she showed up at my bedside in tears over being widowed and how a lack of s** had left her s******* frustrated. In her grief, she asked me if I would have s** with her and that nobody ever need know about it. We ended up making love that night even though we didn’t admit it until things between us progressed.
We ended up having s** for the duration of my visit and by the time I had to return home my mother told me something I’ll never forget. She told me she would always love me as a son but, was in love with the man I had become.
I ended up moving home a week later to no fault of my own and, we ended up in a monogamous relationship for nearly five years before we moved on. Things never really ended between us but, we did pursue other relationships and have found as much as we would like to end the s***** aspect of our relationship we can’t deny our love and desire for each other.
Sometimes I feel that the only way it could ever end between us is with mine or my mother’s passing. I guess only time will tell.
