Careful desires, half-hearted instincts

Careful desires, half-hearted instincts

A Story by Tasi83











"I don't care about your money! I only need you"
Linda sincerely believed that true love could only begin with these words, and she, the lawyer with the cool job she wanted, had nothing else to do,
as the desired romantic knight, she lets him into her successful, slightly careerist life.
After all, those who really take the trouble to really and honestly get to know him invite him for a coffee or check in with him, ask for an appointment. Although it is also true that he always hated it when anyone just visited the XII. in the district attorney's office.
"Everything has its own way!" �" was the well-proven, well-oiled motto of his life.
In the last couple of years, she's kind of figured it out and realized that she scares men away from her. After all, what do most men want? - he asked himself the recurring question. Conquer, own! And of course, most of the evenings they thought mainly with their tails and not with their brains at all.
Sometimes they had a girls' night out with their best friends, mostly models and successful people, where they spent the whole night looking at the men's fashion and discussing the antics of men, that you. most of them don't stay with her for a maximum of seven days, and then they dump her once they have a fight, after all, a career lawyer is still the top of the pyramid in the eyes of most macho guys. As a consequence, it is quite a disservice to the Fréfies if, say, in professional life, a modern woman who suggests balance takes on life's tasks and obstacles to be solved more successfully than the majority of them.
Without exception, Linda's girl friends knew very well the guys whom Linda liked to "hunt for" or at least she liked to cast her net. It's as if she was deliberately attracted to guys who were deliberately stuck on the scale of a certain intelligence or, if you like, intellectual level, so that a successful savior (Linda) could immediately coddle them, pamper them, and pile them with her own somewhat narcissistic feelings. And most of the guys - at least initially - were actually very grateful for Linda's seemingly selfless attention.
Then there were those irritating pimple-faced guys who liked to brag about their luxury sports car and that they had a house in the Bahamas or some faraway exotic island, and they seemed to assume that Linda would have expected a meaningful, emphatically honest conversation from them. Or let's say a real movie theater, pop corn, romantic evening in the spacious, fully equipped living room.
When Linda unexpectedly started her own business in addition to her career as a lawyer - as it turned out immediately - it was once again a very big thorn in the eyes of all the egoistic guys who wanted to conquer her.
In the end, it was Linda who - although she could hardly recover for months after the breakup - decided that she would no longer talk to certain machos.
Her problem with dating apps only got worse, as there were plenty of people who registered on the site with fake, bogus profiles, and when Linda showed up at the arranged date location with solid make-up and an extravagant cocktail dress, she was quite surprised to find that the man in question had already he's long past seventy years old, and he can't afford such a big age difference, no matter how cool and trendy it is these days.
Then, after a few months, he finally felt that the gods had heard his pleas, because he met a kind of slobbering, slightly out-of-touch, mommy's favorite Forest Gump derivative, and when the time for the actual date of flesh and blood came, he was in for a pleasant surprise. , because even though the guy in question actually behaved strangely and strangely, he remained a romantic gentleman to the core, and it was a rarity that he greeted him with a kiss on the hand and even pulled out a chair in front of him. When they had finished the romantic, candlelit dinner, Linda was completely convinced that they would make love harmoniously, leaving time to discover each other's physical needs and desires, but the man - as in everything - asked for special childish permission to kiss her, and since it didn't really work out the way Linda could have expected, she decided to help him out directly; he hugged her neck tenderly, and the first, symbolic kiss took place with a little squeaking and squealing.
It was later that one day there were at least a thousand e-mail messages waiting on Linda's notebook, and the guy nicknamed Forest Gump included such poems that Linda's heart really began to beat fast, and she couldn't wait for her work hours to end, and other obligations and to meet.
Linda didn't like to admit it to herself, but - maybe - that she had excessively high expectations regarding this new type of relationship. I was always curious as to why, if two romantic people want to make love to each other in the shower, for example, then why does the slightly tomboyish Forest Gump get scared dt and why he is ashamed of his extra kilos and invented a million or so almost childish things so that he doesn't have to sleep with Linda. In the end, it was Linda who - maybe - went a little too far, because one day while she was taking a shower, she called out from the bathroom that Forest Gump's boyfriend should give her the towel, and when the hesitant knight shyly handed the towel to her, Linda actually grabbed his arm, she pulled him into the bathroom and let the hesitant boyfriend see her athletically sexy slim body.
"Why don't you want to make love to me?" he asked seriously, openly, as if he were in court.
"Uh… I…" the guy closed his eyes, because he was brought up to think that staring at a woman naked is indecent.
"Open your eyes and please look at me when I talk to you!" - at the interrogator's very serious voice, the man must have really composed himself, and Linda could also sense that he dropped the weight this time, because the man became childishly sad and looked like he would immediately burst into bitter tears.
Linda immediately wrapped a towel around her bombshell body and tried to tidy up her wet hair, then changed into a gentle, baby-loving comforter:
"Forgive me dear... I don't even know what hit me?" I just wanted you to feel how well we understand each other... - he felt himself blush at the unexpected situation and start making excuses, which was not his habit at all.
Forest Gump could easily feel that he had been insulted and humiliated, so he quietly retreated and started walking around Linda's spacious apartment. Linda quickly got dressed, took the man by the hand, sat him down in the living room, and decided that she would prevent further unpleasant misunderstandings with a kind of decent, meaningful conversation.
During a good five-hour conversation, so many things were revealed about Forest Gump, from his misguided, sad childhood to his unlucky and serial bad luck life, that Linda could almost think that maybe this man is not exactly the knight of her dreams! However, when she later took him to introduce her to her group of friends, which is a kind of confirmation in everyone's life without exception, the majority of her girl friends were of the unanimous opinion that Linda's new boyfriend is clearly not 100!
"But how can you say that?" You don't even know me?! she blurted out and asked him out when he went to the bathroom.
"Listen, baby!" We only want the best for you, because just remember your last relationship with that snotty Ádám! He was damned, and for months that scumbag a*s kept teasing me! - answered one of the friends, who felt that Linda's fate was seriously on her heart.
�" I don't think Robi is like that at all, his parents must have raised him very conservatively... he suffered a lot of psychological trauma in his childhood... we sat down in the living room and just imagine how he gradually opened up.
- Yeah, of course! Piss believes! - said another friend. "You didn't see that the mentally retarded and the serial killer have similar methods!" Be glad you're still alive! - answered the other a little nervously.
"Oh, girls!" You know nothing! I have never met a guy who was as open and honest with me as Robi.
"Of course not!" You've always picked better and sexier guys for yourself, then who knows why the dice turned and you thought you'd start dating an idiot, just so you can get away with it! I swear you act like Mother Teresa! - said the other friend, then took a big sip of her drink. Not long after this, the shy and shy guy Forest Gump also returned from the bathroom.
"I apologize for staying away..." he apologized and then sat down.
"It's okay my love!" I hope you are okay? - Linda asked with kind tenderness, and the other girl friends smiled together.
"Everything's fine..." he answered, then adjusted his tie, which was getting tighter in the meantime.
"Wait a bit... I'll help you..." Linda carefully untied his tie, for which he was very grateful.
"Thank you very much… I'm not used to such elegant events."
From that point on, the group of girl friends immediately settled on Rob and they started asking him where he came from. What's your occupation? and of course, so that they don't forget the most important thing: how is your sexual performance?
"Well, ladies!" I think we should keep this little secret to ourselves, right dear?! �" Linda looked lovingly into Robi's eyes, while her friends were really yellow with envy, since they did not know the exhaustive answer to their curious questions.
Most of the inquisitive girlfriends immediately shut up because they believed that they were intruding more forcefully into Linda's privacy, although they were reluctant to remain silent.
After more than an hour, everyone started making out, and the girl friends hugged each other, and of course they didn't forget about the new Forest Gump, and wished them good luck in their budding relationship.
