Coming Out Of The Closet

We had a group of friends that we were very close to. Six couples that we went on vacations with, went to dinner with, had yard parties with, yada yada yada.

We girl friends went shopping together & shared stories about our children. Our husbands went to lounges & shared stories about their sexual encounters.

My girl friends all of them were Cougars. What? How come no one told me they were "playing" with the hired "boys"? They were doing "IT" with these college boys? What? When did this happen? Oh my goodness!!!

I really found out about my girl friends the day I "did" my "pool boy". Yep, he was the first, but certainly not the last. He was the one that told me he & the other "boys" had sex with the majority the neighborhood housewives. He told me a lot more too.

Apparently being hired as a "boy" in our neighborhood was a very desirable job. To the point where they would actually be "auditioned" for the job. If the boy wasn't fantastic in bed, he wouldn't get the job as pool boy, or yard boy, or yada yada yada. The pay wasn't good, but the perks were fantastic. My neighbors brought their "boys" with them on vacation, Hawaii, Mexico, Italy, the beach front summer cottage, yada yada yada. They went along to help take care of the kids. In reality they went along to "service the mama".

The "boys" were given presents too. High dollar clothes, jewelry, cash, stereos, computers, cell phones, what ever they requested. BUT, they only lasted for about a year, they'd get fired & move on to a job at another house.

The wives did the hiring & the husbands did the firing. The husbands had a vague idea of what was going on, but when it got too obvious, or the boy started bragging, or got too greedy they were fired.

Unfortunately, the majority of us stayed married out of convenience. We girl friends coined the word Cougars & our husbands coined the word Convenient. It was more convenient to be married, for the children's sake, more convenient for our husbands jobs, more convenient for financial reasons, yada yada yada. A very sad situation, but very convenient!

Cheating was the norm, but it was over looked, it certainly was not discussed. Oh we had a few neighbors that divorced because the husband got his young secretary pregnant, but it was rare.

Of course, once the children were grown & on their own it was no longer convenient to be married, so we divorced. Our husbands got themselves back in shape, got prescriptions for Viagra, married young girls, started a new family & wished they hadn't. We girl friends got divorced, traveled, dated "boys" & thoroughly enjoyed being single. We came out of the closet & became full time Cougars.
