I'm not sure if it was her perfume, makeup, lipstick ,or what exactly it was, but I still smell like the provider I saw over 3 hours ago. I reek of a beautiful woman and no one is around to care. Nor did I have to worry about taking some evasive maneuver as soon as I got home, such as dousing my face in soap in hopes I could complete the task before the (fictitious) spouse returns and asks me why I'm showering for the third time today. Meanwhile 3/4 of the people I know are either getting a divorce or splitting from their partners.
When an old friend of mine called me at 2 in the morning asking for improvised marriage counseling, I pointed out every single reason why she is continuing to make herself unhappy. She realized after numerous years of marriage that her husband is not what she's looking for but, they have a daughter together. Every time my feedback validated what she already knew and didn't want to admit, her only rebuttal was "What if I get sick or become disabled, who is going to take care of me?" And "Damn, I'm going to lose my country club membership because my finances will be ruined if I get a divorce."
Funny, I still seem to be enjoying this scent clinging to my body. If it's perfume, I couldn't even tell you which brand...
