"Look you have to drive Jenny home!" said my boss. "Why do I have to do it? She lives all the way at the other end of the island and she is gone, out of it, she will wind up puking in my car." "Sorry but I have all these other people to drive out to Jersey. So can you be a team play and do this?" When the boss says "team player" it means "do it or you are...
"Did you really mean it?" I looked over the table at her. I was having lunch with my wife's best friend. And a good friend to me, when it comes down to it. "Mean what, honey?" "That night, when you said next to Janie, if you ever fell in love with anyone else, it would be me?" I remembered the conversation. Lori was married to an asshole, a serial cheate...

I'd come to town for a second cousin's wedding. The event had been much what one would expect of a country wedding; there was a church, a priest pontificating about the sanctity of marriage, and a lot of free beer. There was fuck all accommodation nearby, so my friend Ryan and I had agreed to split a twin share room in a local motel. He was living and work...
I met Annie 20 years ago. We were introduced by a friend, who worried that all work and no play would make me, Alex, a very dull boy. She thought the same about Annie, who was her university roommate. Annie and I came from different backgrounds, but we were both nerds. She was the only daughter of a wealthy businessman and his wife. Me, I was the son of a b...
"Have a good time?" Paul asked. "Wonderful," Rachel brightly responded. "How many men did you fuck?" "Is that for you to know?" Rachel was shocked by the brutality of the question. "I think it is. What you do is very much my concern." "We agreed on an open marriage, if you remember. That doesn't mean I have to tell you everything - nor you me. And frank...
"You just put your lips together and....blow." ******************** She had the bedroom eyes, smoldering sexuality, and the husky, 1-900-number voice of a young Lauren Bacall. Her chest, however, was more reminiscent of Jayne Mansfield's. (Or as Dick Cavett once so famously introduced her onto his show..."Ladies and gentlemen, here they are...Jayne Mansfie...
The phone call broke me out of my daydream, and I was a bit startled, to put it mildly. I had recently sold Icarus, the publishing firm that Eric, Bobbie, and I founded, to a large national publishing house. I now lounged near my pool with an ice cold PBR and my favorite pretzels (Rold Gold) when I heard my cell phone buzz with the default dial tone. It was...
Treat women with love and respect. That's always been my feeling about women. Women give so much of themselves to men, unconditionally, and ask only for love and respect in return. Nancy, my girlfriend, and I had been living together for ten years, at my condo. This is a true story and, during that time, we had been exploring ourselves, emotionally, psychol...
They were still in bed, and Sky had her head on Dev's stomach, blowing soft little whooshes of breath on his skin to make his body hair stir. His fingertips slipped lazily through her hair and across her cheekbone. She kissed his belly button and rolled off the bed. He watched her stretch, clad only in her peaches and cream birthday suit, arms over head, b...
