    Author Notes:

    Sunday morning questions

     

    None that I spend time with on any regular basis, Bette smiled at Tinas question. She recognized jealousy when she saw it. She was quietly pleased that Tina was jealous, but she didnt want it to get to the point where she felt threatened either.

     

    But you have dated other people you still consider friends? Tina asked.

     

    Of course, Bette replied, her brow knit at Tinas question.

     

    Of course? Tina repeated Bettes assertion as a question. Alice said this wouldnt always seem so strange to me, but frankly right now it seems pretty strange. Tina wasnt being judgemental, she was simply trying to understand an aspect of the human condition that was completely foreign to her.

     

    Staying friends with people you used to date? Bette asked hoping to clarify what Tina found so strange.

     

    Tina didnt directly respond to Bettes request for clarification; instead she chose to compare her own experience.

     

    Im not friends with any of my ex-boyfriends, she started. Dont get me wrong, I mean, were civil to each other and can have a conversation, but I didnt call any of them to get their insight on whether or not I should pursue something with you.

     

    Well, it is different with women, Bette attempted an explanation, but knew it often seemed odd to her as well that there was such a web of past present and future relationships among the women she knew. First of all, Alice and I were friends before we dated, so we had that history as a foundation to our relationship. And when you try to transition from friendship to dating, both people involved get very caught up in making sure that, if nothing else, the friendship remains in tact.

     

    So you said lets try dating but if it doesnt work out we can remain friends? Tina was a bit incredulous that they just decided to remain friends and it all worked out that way.

     

    Well, its a bit more complicated than that – there was a bumpy road back to friendship where I wasnt sure if we were going to be able to manage it.

     

    How did it end? Tina inquired.

     

    It became clear to me that it just wasnt going to fulfil either one of us, so I ended it. She had some hard feelings at first but did come to the realization that we shouldnt just stay together until we hated each other and couldnt even salvage a friendship. It didnt take long for us to settle back into that friendship though.

    2. Great to see you return and get right back in the ‘swim’ of things!

      You have a lot of reading to catch up on – there’s a veritable feast of NC-17’s from tonight alone. All the favorite authors have contributed, including the long-lost Shakennotstirred. Even Seahurst has chimed in!
      Welcome back!

    3. i would need to backtrack to understand what you’re talkin about on the author’s note thing. welcome to the queer world i suppose.. where everyone is linked to everyone in some way or another.

    4. A women in every Port (er, no pun inteded !! ) ! What a tangled web, we humans, are prone to weave in the pursuit of happiness, one can not let history hold us back, that would be sacrilege to our very existence now. – Lekker chapter as always Swim, thank you.

    5. so glad i checked before i went to bed. glad your back from your trip. hope it was fun and relaxing. this was a great chappy. is bette gonna come of her high horse a little bit. tina deserves some support. post soon.

    6. I don’t think you’re an internet freak at all :) The situation you punk’d us with made me say it out loud :) And, I do love your writing :)

    8. maybe Tina will know that half women in LA had been with Bette..lol..but Tina has nothing to worried cuz Bette loves her.. great chapter and post soon thanks

    12. That was GREEEEEEEEEATTTT! Pretty funny how…the first woman that they saw after having that conversation was a woman that Bette dated.
