The Downside of Sex

Whoo-whee. Could truer words ever be spoken? I doubt it.

I made the mistake of assuming my girl was one of those romantic types who would feel a great attachment to someone they had sex with. I took her virginity and gave her mine, after being on and off with her for years, because I knew that I wanted to start getting serious with her. Unfortunately, I never backed it up with the words I should have. Of course, I did back it up with the other actions that someone who was in love would do, and those are supposed to speak louder than words... however, there are some instances in which words have a frightening amount of potency. Anyway, the long and short of it is, I thought she got my message, but she did not, and therefore did not remain exclusive to me.

I went through a great deal of pain when I found this out, but of course it was not because of the sex. Fortunately, she had only had one other partner - but unfortunately, this guy couldn't have been sleazier. I'm lucky both she and I are still clean. In any case, once I found the courage to say the words to her, she has had no problem staying faithful to me. The mistake was mostly mine, and Deni couldn't have hit the nail more directly on the head.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
