Fat Fucks
Today's Weight 176.5 lbs
*********
My friend (and ex-neighbour) is heart-broken at the moment because her long-term lover has just announced his engagement to another woman.
They’ve been lovers for eleven years, but in all that time he’s never moved in with her, introduced her to his family, gone on holiday with her, or taken her to meet any of his friends or colleagues.
What he HAS done is fuck her in secret, and date a succession of conventionally slim and pretty girls in public.
My friend had resigned herself to having the crumbs from his table, but she managed to convince herself that eventually he’d ‘come out of the closet’ and announce himself to the world as a man who loves large women. Because that is the one inarguable fact – this is a man who physically adores fat women.
A few times in the past he’s tried to break things off with my friend, but he’s never been able to stay away for long. He’s intoxicated by her, and that lust and yearning breaks through the conventional mask that he hides behind. Two years ago she got pregnant, (eventually she miscarried) and even then he didn’t have the decency to properly commit to her – he told her he would support the baby financially, but that it was out of the question that they could marry or live together openly, because his parents would never accept her.
Since my friend graduated with first class honours from Oxford, is Catholic (as is he), solvent, witty, charming, good-natured, has all her limbs and faculties, no neuroses or addictions and can trace her ancestors back to Robert the Bruce, the lack of suitability seems centred round the fact that she weighs 20 stones (about 180lbs).
What other explanation could there be?
His new fiancée is a woman who – in face and figure – resembles a skinny Nicole Kidman. Yes, she makes the real Nicole look on the chunky side. She’s a partner in the same accountancy firm where he works, and she’s sixteen years his junior. By all accounts his parents are thrilled and delighted.
After all, they make such a good looking couple.
I’ve always found it hard to understand why my friend has been contented with such scant pickings but she says she loves him, as if that explains everything. I met him a couple of times when she still lived next door to me and I can't say I was overly impressed, but hell, what do I know? He was good looking and sexy, but his character is lousy and his personality seemed cold. My friend deserves better.
She’s wasted eleven years waiting patiently for him to openly commit to her, and now he’s just cast her aside as if her feelings are completely unimportant.
Then he has the gall to phone her in tears and say he still loves her.
He asked whether she would be agreeable to ‘leaving things as they were’ after his marriage – i.e. could he continue to have his fat fucks?
WTF?
Thankfully she declined – and socked him in the jaw for good measure.
But last night she came round to see me and cried for three solid hours, so I’m not holding my breath that she’ll stick to her guns.
Any suggestions anyone?
I cannot imagine what positive qualities this man might have that would even remotely balance that kind of behaviour (nothing could excuse it). It\'s heartbreaking.
The kind of ideas that are running through my mind are along the lines of pouring sugar into his car\'s fuel tank, and paying horrible little boys to throw rotten eggs at him in the street, but that may not be all that constructive.
