An elderly man thought he had found love when he developed a passionate relationship with a woman he met at work.
But little did he know that she would end up texting him and threatening to ruin his life!
So, I’m George, and I’ve been running a construction company for 52 years. Until recently, I thought Jane, a 56-year-old corporate executive, was the one for me. Jane is the project manager for the company that contracted my company to complete the work.
Our similar passion for business brought us together and we began our relationship with a cheerful but discreet flirtation.
However, it wasn’t until a simple coffee date turned into an evening event where she invited me as her guest that I felt the spark turn into a flame.
I was instantly attracted to her, so of course I accepted her request to go out! The event was full of dancing, flirting, and laughter. During the slow song, Jane whispered in my ear, “You’re quite the dancer, George,” her warm breath against my neck. I was in love!
She shocked me even more by inviting me to her house after our amazing time at the event! Knowing what would happen if we went alone, I gladly accompanied her. Within seconds we were kissing like teenagers in her bedroom, finally consummating our love.
The next morning I realized how quickly and deeply I had fallen in love with Jane, and I felt amazing! I was excited that our relationship had developed and that we would cross paths again. We continued to flirt behind my back while I worked at her job and it seemed like we were getting close.
Then Jane invited me to spend a week at her house, which was amazing! “So why don’t you spend next weekend at my place?” I asked her. because that particular week was coming to an end. But her comment caught me by surprise. She said it casually like it wasn’t important, and I should have known:
“My HUSBAND is coming home tomorrow for this weekend from a business trip, so that won’t work.
“W-what?!” was all I could say. But since I don’t date married women, I’ll be honest, I was pissed and felt stupid.
“Your partner? Do you have a husband?” I remember asking, the words were cutting. “Georgi, I… It’s complicated,” she started to explain, but I cut her off. “No, Jane. It’s not hard at all to be honest.”
I decided to speak to her husband, Dan, feeling a combination of betrayal and fury.
The next day, as I waited outside their house, I thought I had hit rock bottom in my life, but I had to know the truth. Dan was clearly confused by what he saw. “Can I help you?” he asked, his eyes shining.
My tone was calmer than my emotions as I whispered, “It’s about Jane.” He furrowed his brows but nodded and we ended up in a dimly lit pub where people were bartering and keeping secrets. I told Dan everything, including how we originally got along, how it all started, and how I felt that Jane and I were honest in our relationship.
Dan listened, his face an unreadable mask, his hands tapping the pole silently and in time. When I finished, there was a thick silence, the kind that felt like something was pressing down on me. “I can’t say I’m not angry or hurt or broken,” Dan commented finally. But George, I really appreciate your honesty. Few would have the courage to do what you did.”
Startled, he stood up and left the drink money saying, “This… this will change everything.” He then disappeared, leaving me alone with my thoughts and a growing sense of dread. Jane replied with great speed.
A few days later, there were angry messages threatening revenge.
“George, everything is in ruins! After thirty years you blew it up in an instant. “I promise I’ll make you sorry you did it,” she replied. I was afraid I had made a grave mistake as I sat next to them and watched my phone light up with her anger.
I questioned whether my need for truth and solutions was making the situation worse. Was it worth the effort? So here, my readers, I’m looking for your thoughts. Was it right of me to tell Dan everything, or should I have kept it to myself and quietly disappeared from their lives? As always, your insights are very valuable.
