On live journal, I was this pretty wife that a lot of women admired. Pretty house, pretty husband, but I began affairs as well.   Actually one was with Gary.   Gary and I had "afternoons".  Gary was back in town.  Gary was a commercial banker and was pretty successful.   Emmy and he had problems.   I just was so embarrassed that. My husband was just a glorified restaurant manager.  I wanted him to want more, but he seemed to nit to.  Gary looked good.  Emmy who was so beautiful was over 200 pounds.   "She lost her looks, doesn't like sex, and it just sucks, but you my dear and gorgeous."  She talked about her post high school days when they would "skinny dip and fuck".  "I'd love to relive this," he told me  one sunny Sunday afternoon, as I  took the girls to swim while my husband worked the Sunday brunch shift,  I  secretly wished he would be hers, but I  was also seeing a firefighter who i wanted more,  he was dangerous, played in a band and so, so handsome.   I wanted a wilder life than i led in the sorority.   I was the princess, always dressed in preppie clothes and looked perfect when I wanted to go to the rock clubs and party.  It was not what I was expected to do.

      People loved my house, my clothes and that icould bounce back from baby like 1-2-3.   Gary liked that too,  Gary would have loved to keep the relationship, but he got transferred to New Jersey in the fall of 2005.  "Look, I will be here at Christmas, but I will miss the shit out of you.  God, why didn't I date you when you became legal?"  I told him that I  felt the same and I did.  There was no love for my husband who had a drinking and gambling problem, and was stealing from work.  I was a server who lived on her tips, and a lot of times my tips were taken, but money was hard to come by and the mortgage sometimes did not get paid,   There were calls from all over wanting him to "pay up".  He sold our Beleek china for a debt.  I  cried but it was what had to be done.  "Gary is gone and no one really wants me now, because of my age, so I have to stay,". The firefighter found a young girl and youth win over here aged beauty.   I was theory four now and time to put away the low rise pants and head into the dreaded mommy land.  I began to wear sweats more and more and work had noticed that I had. "Gained weight"
