The holiday fling

The holiday fling

While her man is in the local bar
getting drunk. As it was the

tradition on their vacations

for him to do just that. Then go

back to the hotel room and crash

out for the night.

That is when she started to hook up

with the local bartender.

After each nightly drinking session.

She sneaked out and spent time with

Edwardo, they would walk around

the moonlit beach holding hands and

shared kisses and cuddles.

And talk and getting to know each other. And then

make passionate lovemaking on the

sand.

Then she would sneak

back into the hotel room just before dawn. And

catch a few hours sleep. Before her

husband would even wake up at noon with a bad

hangover as usual.

She would act like everything was

normal and just carry on as usual

around him.

The reason she needed this fling was

simply that he was a  great

man in general. But not a lover or

into sex any more. He would pay the

bills, provide for her and keep her safe.

But she needs the buzz of sex

and someone new,

and each and every time they

came abroad for a break from the

everyday back home.

I guess he knew secretly she was cheating.

As he did once suspect

she was up to something. On one

vacation. As he woke up early and

noticed she was gone. He asked her

later and she said she went out to

find a late shop open for cigarettes

and that was where she went.

He knew she had needs and cravings.

And he was not satisfying them all. Regards

sex and love. He was a provider. So in his

mind's eye. He was giving her the time

to fix herself and sort their marriage out

completely with these holiday romances

she believed he knew nothing about.

But he did. As often local punters at the bar. Would

tell him. They saw his wife out with another guy,

late at night after the bar closed.

And he always told them, to mind their

own business and keep

your their mouth shut or else!

And I guess the reason he drank so much.

As he closed a blind eye to it all. Her cheating

and needs. Why do you ask? He just could not

live without her in his life.

A tragic tale, but all too often, such things do happen.One person just isn't that into sex, so the other finds it elsewhere. Sometimes the apathetic mate even knows about it, but it's easier for him/her to just turn a blind eye to the affair(s), and either ignore it or become all passive-aggressive over the whole thing.
A very good write on the subject, Dawn. You nailed it!

Thanks angel.

[Ana Papaya]

what a tragic tale, that perhaps the reason for his drinking was not to satisfy his thirst but to satisfy his denial

I think you told this so well and it felt so real

[Onlyme]

I agree Ana, But sadly situations like this actually do happen in real life. When you love someone. You will actually do anything for them. Even if towards others it seems like madness. And you have gone nuts. Thanks for your thoughts Ana. blessing to you. Dawn.

I know that it does happen and probably a lot.
I saw a wonderful movie with Kevin Kline recently about an extra marital affair. It's sad for sure how it impacts people around them

[Onlyme]

I agree Ana, When you cheat it does affect the other person.

Love make us look away. People forget what brought them together. Accept things and live on. Bad or good? I don't know. A interesting story in the poetry. Made the reader think dear Dawn.
