They flew me across the country to touch my boobs

Thumbnail
I live on the east coast of the US and one of my oldest friends, "Ella" lives on the west coast. When Ella's 30th birthday was coming up, her boyfriend of 18 months, "Felix"--who I'd never met--called me and said he wanted to surprise Ella for her birthday by flying me out there to stay with them for a few days. I thought it was really sweet and thoughtful.

When Felix picked me up at the airport, he immediately started saying how he didn't know if he and Ella were going to be together long term and just generally saying some not very nice things about her. It was really weird and inappropriate considering he knows we're good friends and I had never talked to this guy in my life. It made me wonder if he was trying to get me to pass this info along to her somehow? It also made me sad for my friend, because she thought they were really serious (they lived together) and were headed toward marriage.

I want to add here that Felix, while he had a lot of good qualities and was generally successful in life, was not the best looking guy and Ella was his first girlfriend. I point that out because the way he was talking to me about Ella was overly confident, like "Eh, I could do better" when in reality, he hadn't kissed a girl for the first 28 years of his life.

The first two days of my visit were great. Ella and Felix showed me around their city and the three of us got along great. On the 2nd night, while I'm getting ready for bed, Ella comes into the guest room, sits on the bed, and tells me about how Felix is REALLY into her boobs. Like, every time they had sex, he focuses on them and worships them to the point of it being kind of annoying and desperate. But she knew he'd never gotten his hands on breasts before her and had decades of pent-up desires to get out, so she let him do his thing.

Then she says, "I feel bad for him that he's never felt anyone's boobs but mine. And if we get married he'll only have felt one pair of boobs in his life. And mine are so small." I'm like, "mm-hmm, yeah." Then she says.......

"So I told him you would probably let him touch yours."

Now, I don't know if I ever gave Ella the impression that I was free with my body and just let random people grab whatever they wanted, but that is definitely not the case. I'm not a huge prude either, but I was 0% attracted to Felix and there was no chance I was letting him touch my nips, especially after the gross picture Ella had painted for me of him getting all weirdly worked up over hers. So I just shut it down. I was like, "Uh, that's not going to happen."

Ella was understanding, dropped it, and I didn't think it was that big of a deal. The way Ella had whispered all of this to me led me to believe that she was just trying to secretly help out her boyfriend, and he had no idea she and I ever had that conversation.

But the next day, Felix was acting noticeably cooler toward me, and I thought, *That's weird. What happened?* It actually took me a long time to put it all together--like, days--that not only did he know Ella was making that request of me the night before and that I'd said no, but that he had orchestrated this entire trip--had paid for my plane tickets--just for a chance to touch my boobs.

So my wife’s going to a gala tonight — as her client’s “date.”

I’m 44 and my wife is 44. She works on an art advisory committee, so attending galas, events, and client meetings is part of her job. She often meets clients for coffee, lunch, or dinner, and I don’t always know the details and that’s completely normal because it’s part of her work. She’s always professional, transparent about her friendships, and I trust her judgment completely. Recently, she mentioned she’s going to a gala with a friend, S. He’s a wealthy client she met about a year ago, and they became friends professionally. She introduced me to him once, and he seems like a genuinely good person. He invited her as his “date” to this gala, and my wife said it’s fine. I did ask her though, if she’s actually going as a “date,” and she just laughed and said, “Date doesn’t always mean romantic.” She said it’s important for her she could get networking and meet new people. Then she smiled and said, “If I get into this gala next time, I won’t need to take that man with me, I’ll take you...

I accidentally started a fake relationship with my dentist’s nephew and now I have to bring him to my cousin’s wedding

I swear this isn’t as insane as it sounds. Or maybe it is. I don’t know anymore. So I had to get my wisdom teeth pulled last month. All four. It was horrible. I cried when they put the numbing stuff in. Not from pain, just vibes. The dentist was this sweet older guy, probably in his 60s, super gentle, gave dad energy. Anyway, after the whole thing I’m in the waiting room with a mouth full of gauze, looking like a bloated chipmunk and trying not to drool on myself. This guy walks in. Maybe 20-ish. Tall, curly hair, kind of goofy looking but in a hot way. He smiles at me and goes, “You look like you fought a squirrel and lost.” I flip him off. With love. Apparently he’s the dentist’s nephew. He was dropping off lunch or something, I wasn’t listening. I was trying to keep my face from leaking. He sits down and starts chatting with me while I wait for my ride. I don’t say much because again, gauze goblin. But I must’ve made an impression because later that night I get a message on Instagr...

A Cinematic Masterpiece: 'Halkara' Deserves More Recognition

 So, the weekend is almost over and Sunday is always special to me. In a sense, I was always wandering, taking myself on a trip to the valley. This story is quite different and interesting. In the middle of my journey, I felt ready and motivated to write about it, so here it goes. This story is about a single movie that inspired me to write. I had no plans to watch a Nepali movie called 'Halkara,' which had recently been released. As I passed by midtown, I wasn't prepared to watch it, but I found myself at the ticket counter buying a ticket for myself. When I bought the ticket, there were only five people who had booked the show, and all the seats were empty. The show was scheduled to start at 12:30 pm, and I entered the hall. Finally, the movie started. I cannot describe how amazing the cinematography, storyline, characters, acting, and overall vibe of this movie were. I still can't believe that this movie didn't receive a good response from...
