I have one of those friends, you know the type. The one who’s always trying to hook me up because she wants to be able to double date with her new fling of the month. I’m plenty fun on my own, I think, but I guess it’s just awkward for her new guy to not have a guy to talk with? So, she tries to hook me up with anyone and everyone. Her coworkers, her landlord’s son, the cute guy from the market where she shops, waiters and cabbies. I’m not kidding, I’ve even dated her brother (for one really sad sushi plate night).

She’s introduced me to every guy she knows, strangers she finds attractive when we go out, and even, after a night of debauchery – while she was getting over her latest lover – she tried to gauge the spark between myself and a homeless guy, because we made contact and smiled at each other! She’s created online dating profiles for me, grilling me later about how many flirts or whatever I’d sent; and one night, she dialed into one of those phone sex lines when I wasn’t looking, pressing the phone between our ears and giggling, because she was concerned that maybe my lady parts just weren’t working.

Well, the latest stunt was she signed me up for sexting. I was in the middle of a huge presentation at work, and suddenly my phone starts going off. It practically buzzed right off the table! I was so embarrassed! So, after fumbling to shut it off, wondering what all these text messages were about, and apologizing to the group when the meeting was over, I settled back into my cubicle and started blushing all over again! Some stranger was sending me some very sexy texts. I tried to tell the guy that he probably had the wrong number, but then I started getting more of them from other unknown numbers.

My bestie laughed her butt off while I was describing the day’s events, still blushing and a little bit freaking out. She finally confessed what she’d done, and I told her that I needed to know how to get my number out of their system. She got upset, but she gave me the name of the site. Later, I pulled it up and saw just how many hot guys there were – right here in my part of town! I changed the matching parameters to the kind of guys I’m interested in (not the ones she’d picked for me), and I’ve been sexting ever since! It’s so sexy and fun, I’m having a blast playing naughty. I haven’t met one that I can take on a double date with her – not because there aren’t hundreds of eligible pieces of man meat – I’m just not ready to admit that she finally succeeded!
