tonight.”
    He tried the hide his disappointment but it was written all over his face. I couldn’t believe that I felt bad about having to turn him down. I almost felt like I was making a mistake and I wanted to take what I said back.
    “Oh, of course you have plans. I’m sorry for bothering you so early; I guess I should have expected you to have plans with your boyfriend this evening. Have a good day,” he said as he walked away.
    “Maybe some other time,” I said to him as he walked away.
    “Yeah, maybe.”
    I closed the door and leaned on it. I need to cut it out, another man in my life is the last thing that I need right now. I was just fine with Michael; Adam was probably more trouble than he was worth anyway. They all seem nice at first, and then you fall in love with them and POOF! Your prince becomes an ugly toad.
    “What in the hell was that all about,” Lizzie asked as she looked over the arm of the chase at me.
    “Adam asked me to come over for a dinner tonight.”
    She sat up straight in the chair, I had her undivided attention.
    “And you said? Never mind, from the look on your face I know exactly what you said. Why did you turn him down? He’s cute, in that unassuming geeky kind of way.”
    “I have a boyfriend, Lizzie,” I said.
    “And Michael has a girlfriend but that isn’t slowing him down any,” she retorted.
    I gave her the stare of death. I wasn’t in the mood to entertain this conversation.
    “I’m sorry but I just can’t stay out of it,” she continued. “Until you realize that you deserve better, I can’t stay silent. Watching this play out is killing me.”
    I softened, “I know it is, but it’s my life. I get to choose what I want to do with it. I’m ready to get married and have children. Michael is offering me that.”
    “You can still have all of those things without him”
    “So much easier said than done. But I can’t go out with him anyway, Michael and I have plans tonight.”
    “Those plans better be damned good because you are worthy of the best,” she said as she laid her head back down on her pillow.
    My conversation with Lizzie did nothing but confuse me more. I didn’t want to admit that I really liked Adam. I couldn’t jeopardize a relationship with the man that I love for someone that I like. I walked over to the chase with Lizzie and got under the covers with her.
    “See who needs a man when you have a snuggle buddy for life,” she said as she put her arm about my waist and held me tight.
    Most may not believe it but neither one of us are bisexual. But I can honestly say that she gives the best cuddles in the world. There were so many nights that me and her lay in the same twin bed and fell asleep in one another’s arms. I’ve wiped her tears when she’s cried and she’s done the same for me. That’s why even though I don’t like some of her advice, I still listen. She really loves me and her love has been my rock for almost 10 years. Men may come and go, but she’s forever.

    “His cock was so small,” Lizzie exclaimed, “What a disappointment because I had such high hopes for him.”
    “I’m sorry that your night went so horribly. I had such high hopes for the both of you,” I laughed sarcastically.
    “Whatever, he was really cute and I was hoping like hell that he had a decent package to match. What a waste,” she said with a frown.
    “I really wish you hadn’t slept with him, Lizzie. He knows where I live. Men have a tendency to hunt me down about you. I’m sure that in the next few days he’ll be at my door inquiring about your disappearing act. You have to call him or talk to him. Let him know that you’re aren’t interested anymore, don’t keep him guessing.”
    She sighed, “You’re right and the last thing I want is you being stalked by a small-cocked whiner.”
    I laughed at the ridiculousness of it all. That poor man, he was probably excited about his next encounter with Elizabeth. He was completely unaware
