After a while you get kinda tired of just doing what most see as normal. Trying to please the one you love what about your pleasing. Joiner was long over due for the yes please but couldn't seem to get it through. Talking was not only tiring but also misunderstood for a strange reason. The weekend came and she reserved it for some house cleaning and maintenance. Not having time for gossip from the usual she put on some very quiet Lue Ross and a bit of jazz every other CD. But her mind was on it's on wandering about talk she had with Paul on the phone.
Paul is a man and from her experience from the guys that she has been out with are an eye man. Only her husband was a no nonsense I want your love kind. Well they can act like it's all fun and games but who you lovin and who's lovin ain't no game.
She got finished cleaning the bathroom ringing out the mop the phone rang.
That ain't nobody but him she thought.
Hello, hello he said how you doing.
Good she said, you're starting to make this calling thing a habit aren't you. I'd like to can I he asked. That too Paul is up to you.
I don't mind talking there's nothing wrong with talking I don't need to be in some triangle. The saying is it's not nice to fool Mother Nature but the truth is it's not nice to fool nobody. I'm not going to ask you any questions Paul cause you know I'm not one to get caught up in some triangle.
Some don't mind a triangle because respecting others don't even come in to play.
I can't make you want me Paul I can't make you love me.
See in this situation the man think that a woman turn them down. Thinking the woman want you to leave the woman that you're with for them. When that woman is all about respect, respecting herself first you and the woman that you are with.
See she doesn't say no because she want you to leave who you are with for her. She say no cause she want you to leave her alone out of respect for that woman that you are with.
See from where I sit Paul every woman has the same things it's just that that hands on experience move better than words
We get on the phone and talk about the things wanted but at our age we know better and talk is cheap. It's one to say what you'll do it's another to do what you say.
Some people will place you where they want you to be even if you're not there.
You are with Val I am single and right now Paul I'm happy I've lived just the way the Lord entended my life to be lived.
I don't have anybody taking possession of me. I'm whatcha ya call a much right woman. I'm nice and nice is looked down on cause i don't spend my time pretending to be someone that I'm not.
I'm not going to tell you nothing in words that I can't back up in action. Look I'm telling you straight up I don't want you to leave Val for me I don't want you to leave Val at all. But I am not about to have no relationship with you while you are with Val.
The deal is that there are million of men in this world of ours and I don't want nothing but one that's all Paul just one. You don't let a man get a word in edgewise do ya he said.
I didn't leave Val for you I left because when she got back from seeing Kelvin I asked her how he was doing. I just wanted her to know that I knew. So you let people think what they want but that triangle thing thing that you're talking about is no good.
See Joiner I got the hands on experience but the shoe is on the other foot so to speak.
Val was the at the peak with two men and Joiner I know exactly what you mean.
Let's do this ok let's see what happens.
Ok Joiner said and hung up. It's time for a break she said went to the kitchen for some
red, red wine.
