Diary of a Fat Woman

I still longed to find someone at the single parent association. Once I was foolish enough to think that I had found someone. He called me every night. As needy as I was at the time, at first I didn't realize that he was not interested in me, He was interested in my best friend. It then occurred to me that our conversations always centered on Gina. What did Gina like to do? Did she like him; and finally would she consider going out with him? I can't tell you how disappointed I was when I realized his true intentions. He was just using me, the fat lady to get to her.

He was the first of several who called me to get through to Gina. At least, after that learning experience I know what the real score was. But you know it still felt good to talk to a male voice.

Just like listening to the male radio announcer felt good. I did the same as other lonely women; I got so wrapped up in the male announcer's voice that I almost believed he was talking directly to me. The melodic voice, saying "and now I will serenade you to sounds of the righteous brothers on this hot, lazy August evening. Sit back, relax, enjoy," helped me to sleep and to think I had someone else in the room with me.

Like many other women I knew, I had an imaginary lover, I called him Rocco, and he was just perfect, he did not care about my weight, he cared about me. He was loving and affectionate and a true gentleman.
