Not sure Hubby would be delighted, or the Bull's Sweetie, either. Hope our 'virtual couple' both have individual phone accounts! (Wouldn't escape close scrutiny, just having a phone financially separated from a spouse's phone is suspicious, per se!)
I hope hubby finds out just as lover dies in a car wreck leaving the worthless whore all alone and destitute.
What chance does a marriage have if there is no communication in it? What chance does it have if a spouse chooses to go outside of the relationship for fulfillment instead of finding it within the relationship? What's the point of being married?
Where is hubby, and why is he not making love to his wife? Why does she get off on a stranger she never met. I'm confused.
HA Ha ha
I like to think this is wifey and hubby role-playing a complex pseudo-cuckold fantasy. Hubby is not in bed and I would like to think the dentist appointment is part of their charade for him to play "David", his wife's cellphone lover.
Yes, the notion is far fetched, but if this was a wife/lover story I don't think it is plausible for cheaters to confine trysts to a non-physical relationship, especially telephone sex, when the lustful desire is so openly requited.
My speculation is concocted on the basis the story lacks concrete details to prove otherwise.
Despite the dismal ratings so far, I'm enjoying your comments. Y'all are asking the right questions. To see some visceral reactions to the characters gives me some solace that they at least have some dimension.
Thanks for reading and commenting.
You did that so well, Hank!
And I really liked the ending--it gives a sense of hope for the marriage.
Please don't let the idiot who commented above give you any second thoughts--or even first thoughts. Bitter, hateful people like that only want to drag you down so they can climb on top.
I, too, felt all the way along that this was a role-play with hubby and wife. If not, the nature of the relationship is rather absurd. Still, one does hear of cyber-affairs. One that extends to feelings of love? I suppose it is possible. But, the wife is left longing for HUBBY, wanting to make love to him, to wrap herself up in the smell him. A lot of questions, and the ambiguity is interesting. Pretty hot depiction of the self-love, too. Not the kind of LW story to get on a soap-box about. I enjoyed the writer's style and skill.
The erotic build up is well-written and the concept of 'designed ambiguity' has been achieved. However unlikely I feel it is, I agree that there are cyber lovers or lovers who are content at merely "watching, talking or texting" each other ('why' is another question...).
I know the wife of a friend who maintained a bizarre relationship with a neighbour who lived across their street. They rarely spoke but made their infatuation with each other known through the mere act of "watching" each other. The sheer brazenness of this voyeuristic, 'look but not touch' act finally caught up with them. So, I guess the illicit aspect of the story can be indeed plausible.
I posted two previous comments when I only posted one? Perhaps a refresh problem whilst editing...
Just for clarity. Thanks for commenting again, I appreciate the dialog.
...now.
You have done a great job of the slow build-up. I suppose I assumed that David was the husband, but towards the middle I started to wonder if they were going to physically meet at all.
For those that are criticizing Leah, one wonders where hubby is during all this? Why does she need to go through this if her husband is that fantastic? Maybe we'll find out one day, personally I think the story ends in the right place.
what a lonely, sad, and pathetic existence.
Spark beteen L & hubby gone? Grow a spine! Divorce! Move on.
Otherwise the depression she's experiencing now, and it has the classic symptoms of notnig but, will just deepen.
And in real life the are affairs were people never have sex. It is just Emotional.
Phone sex with her lover, when she should find a way to be with him.
Her husband must not do it for her anymore or it may be that she doesn't respond to her husband as she does to her lover.
A bit confussing or perhaps conflicted storyline.
Thanks for the read.
Not totally sure it was a lover, instead of Hubby, until near the end. Did NOT realize LoverBoy was NOT going to be there until after a couple of messages from 'within the house!' That was also time the odds of it being a lover increased a lot.
Overall, very nice and effective. Pity!
A wonderful story. Polished, well-written and immersive, it drew me in instantly.
I enjoyed it very much. Thank you for writing.
How in the world can husband get all that she promised with her wedding vows when she's showing so much passion for someone else? Doesn't matter she's not actually sucking his dick, she's giving her soul away. Just as bad. I can only hope that the husband somehow finds out and dumps this whore to find a fulfilling life with someone who knows the meaning of commitment.
1 star - I figured it out in the first paragraph. WHY? I am a pessimist and I always prepare for the worst - first.
She is a nasty, skanky, slut bitch and she will eventually get her just dessert.
Especially, if her husband gets a regular list of phone calls to her cell phone. Imagine his surprise, when he sees a number of calls from one unfamiliar phone number to his wife, early in the morning AFTER he goes to work. He does a reverse directory check and sees David (something or other) - then checks out his facebook page. That is just one way she could find herself sitting on the curb outside his house, waiting for an Uber ride to her sister's place and a potential divorce in the very near future. hahaha
She buries herself in her husband's scent...and long's for him to make love to her?
I'm going to have to go with rijubhai's theory that it's roleplay, even though it's really weird. At least I'm letting myself believe that. You might think clearing up the ambiguity would "ruin" the story, but it would've made me enjoy it a lot more. As it is, I can't vote this higher than a 3. And that's only because of your comment expressing that the ambiguity was deliberate, giving me hope that rijubhai's theory was correct. Sorry, but it's my honest expression of my level of enjoyment of the story.
Personal opinion, it isn't role play, definitely emotional cheating at minimum. I did like the story as it was well written and I haven't seen one quite like it.
Multiple references to the husband's cold side of the bed. Sounds like he is not a great husband (that doesn't mean bad or deserving of cheating) also seems like she still loves him despite what she is doing but it sounds like a relationship in desperate need of open communication.
I enjoyed your original approach to forbidden romance. You left so many nuanced questions unanswered and that really added to the story. Is this a one off, or will there be more chapters? Either way it is a well written and original story. I choose to read the your story and appreciate the wonder of your viewpoint, rather than berate the you for not mimicking my own. Thanks for sharing.
