That's more an alibi for what follows than a piece of information the world just needed to know about me. I read a story long ago written by a woman who was very close to her dying father-in-law. She wrote about her grief and about her husband's grief. She asked her husband at one point what she could do for him and he told her, have sex with me every night. He wasn't being facetious or crass, he just wanted the comfort, release, the life affirming thing that sex can be. Most of my girfriends have rarely been without a man in their life. Even when they say they need to not be with someone, they are still kind of seeing someone. I've only met 2 other people who are, as Ashley coined, 'sex camels' who go without for long stretches. I am without a man in my life and at times like these, I could really use the affirmation, the comfort, the release.
I know I *just* said I was happy being unmarried but can a girl get a boyfriend or something?
