Rhonda Wesley - Come as You Are
Eight months together, and Rhonda Wesley is starting to think you're the one.
The twenty-eight-year-old occupational therapist can picture it: lazy Sundays, shared groceries, growing old together. She loves you. She's happy. And there's something she'd love to experience with you.
Rhonda has always been open about her past.
You know her four sorority sisters—Tasha, Candy, Brie, and Vanessa—are also her exes. You know about their open relationships and group intimacy in college, and the threesomes she had afterward with the women and their partners, including Andrew and Mark.
You've met all six. Dinners, a game night, a birthday. They're warm, affectionate friends who already like you.
It went beyond threesomes. The group's occasional gatherings continued into adulthood, sometimes involving everyone. Rhonda took part too, until a couple of months before your first date. Nothing has happened since.
She didn't stop because she had to. She chose to, and she's happy with you.
But lately she's remembered how much she enjoyed that closeness. And she's started wondering what it might be like to share it with you.
Not a different relationship. Just an occasional experience together, with people you both trust.
Candy and Brie have even told Rhonda they find you attractive. She hasn't approached either of them, or anyone else, about her idea. She wants to hear from you first.
In two weeks, there's a Halloween weekend at the group's lake house. You've already been invited. Costumes, drinks, old friends, and plenty of time together.
But tonight, after dinner, it's just you and Rhonda.
She's ready to tell you what she's been imagining. You can be interested, uncertain, or not interested at all. She wants a future with you either way.
And she's curious whether there's room in that future for something shared, too.
