Yes to all of this (as per usual)! 😁 I was thinking the other day that if I could just live my life as I see fit, I wouldn’t have to write about it so much. But, on the other hand, I like to write. We haven’t spent a lot of time with our lovers in public places, but that is starting to change with Tamara, at least. We’ll see her again this weekend in the company of someone that she works closely with, but who thinks we are all just friends. I’m a touchy/feely person so it’s hard for me not to do that beyond what friends would do, but you are absolutely right — we like each other so much as people that we have a great time together without or without much touching going on.

Sometimes I get tired of wearing the mask for the public’s benefit, and sometimes it just makes what we have together all the more precious.
