Went for It Anyway

I went out with this woman named Jane last night. We had been flirting online for weeks, but I hadn’t really expected much to come of it, she’s younger than me and, let’s face it, I’m not exactly a spring chicken anymore. But she wanted us to meet in person, so I thought, why the hell not? The evening ended up being amazing, we laughed, we talked about everything under the sun, and as midnight approached, things got heated. She asked if I was into light spanking play; I told her, ‘Sure thing, but let’s keep it gentle, I’m 54 after all.’ We moved to the bedroom and she did exactly what she said, carefully, tenderly, in a way that felt incredibly intimate and exciting. There’s something about embracing your sexuality fully at any age that feels pretty damn defiant.
