tight_wet_lips's blog post - Immortal words of Jack Nicholson "You can't handle the truth"

Saturday, December 20, 2025, 5:42:52 AM
In 2005 I faced a tough period in my life. I won't go into detail about it because I have moved on. Long story short, my heart, my soul was crushed and destroyed by someone I loved and trusted.

After it was all said and done, I needed to move on but didn't know how.

Well, during that time I met a man. I met another officer from a different department. We hit it off and started a tawdry affair through friendship. It was comforting, easy, we shared common interests like what we face on duty, the venting of it all.............and of course..........sex. Sex, sex and more sex. He had the same appetite....lol

This affair went on for over a year. I truly do not know when it stopped, but slowly and surely, it just started to drift away, and I buried myself into my work, my hobbies, family and traveling.

Flash forward to the funny part. Here it is, 2025. 5 months ago, I received an email Subject line: "Hey there Blonde Fox" (a former call sign from days gone by)

It was him, the man who looked lie Esai Morales. A gorgeous Hispanic man. Anyhoo, I was extremely curious and opned the email. The only written comment was "How are those sexy blue eyes"?

Guess what everyone, my eyes are light green.............hahahhahaha

Ok, back to the funny stuff. I waited a few days to respond because I wanted my comment to be perfect.

I wrote back "I have no clue how my blue eyes are, because they are light green" That is all that I wrote.
He replied to my email the same day that I sent it and apologized for not remembering. He ended the email by giving me his phone number and asked me to call him. I waited a few days and called him while I was on duty writing my EOD reports. We chatted for a minute and we laughed over a few things, our time together 20 years ago, and our jobs. I told him that I was heading out to take a complaint and told him I would call him later that night after work.

Well, I did call him that night, and no one answered. So, I sent a text and simply wrote "I am off duty, so call if you want to chat again.
4 days later he emailed me at 7 p.m. and said hello. The message came from his phone, so I knew he was online. I wrote back, you can call, I am not at work. Surprise, He didn't call.

HHHHhhhhmmmmm? I thought to myself. What's the deal? I thought about it for a few days and decided to text him. But not just any text. A text getting down to the nitty gritty.

"So, tell me something. Since I didn't know or even asked you back then when we first met, honestly, are you married? If we are going to start talking again, I would like open conversations with the truth. Can you handle that"?

I guess he couldn't handle it, because here it is 5 months later and still no call or text. I guess he couldn't handle it.............................hahahahah. I feel fine about it all.
Once a person rips your heart from your chest and walks away as if it was nothing, you can laugh at the above incident. Truly, I laughed so hard for weeks over no replies.

i wonder if he will email me again 20 years from now?

twl, always good to see you around. You are made strong, known that since the beginning. To see that you have not become bitter after having your heart broken back then, that's good. Same thing happened to me, many moons ago. Had I chosen to become misogynistic in any way, I would not have met and pursued Daisy. And she is the woman of my life.

I'm sitting here thinking maybe he's a little color blind, till I read the rest of it. 😆 Good job demanding you want the truth.

There are a lot of shady people out there. Count yourself lucky if you find even A Few Good Men in your life.

It’s hard, if not impossible to know what motivates people. I hope you are doing well. Thinking about retirement? I’m loving it, thanks to the city. Best wishes, Tighty.
