Carnal cravings
SOMETIMES when good loving comes into play, rational thought goes right through the window, and as such we can end up doing some really silly things just for carnal pleasure. And while men are thought to be more likely to turn into clowns when they find a woman with the ‘good-good’, there are a significant number of women who are also willing to go to great lengths when they’re sprung.
All Woman asked some readers who have admittedly turned fools over men’s loving to share stories of insane things this has made them do.
Shelly, 28, bartender:
I went to his house and knocked on the gate about 5:30 am or somewhere in those hours because I didn’t hear from him in all of three weeks because his wife, who he said he didn’t even love, found out about us. Well, since my feelings had got involved, I went to the house and I introduced myself to the wife because in real life we were a family — she took care of his clothes and I took care of the bed matters best. It was a big thing, we both had it out, but by the next day he was in my bed because the wife put him out so she could think.
Sabrina, 36, business development manager:
I agreed to be the side chick — and I think that is the dumbest of things to do because one day I was bound to lose it. Luckily for me though, I got another guy who by comparison was at least two points better than the one I was sharing. If I am to be honest though, I don’t completely regret it. I just know sacrificing my self-esteem was stupid.
Tenny, 36, blogger:
My mom lives abroad and she was sending money to me to put into my savings. It’s not even funny how when you are young you do foolish things, but I met this really hot man, and I remember how I would fulfil his every request. This man built a house out of my mother’s money.
Sammie, 29, business owner:
When the loving is good it makes you cook breakfast at 2:00 am, makes you put a tracker on your man’s phone, and makes you jump fence (his mother was a devout Christian and getting it on under her roof was forbidden since we were unmarried). It also made me fight a woman when she stared too hard at him, and also fight the man. It was his fault because it looked like he seasoned his goods with honey.
T, 37, food supplier:
I’ve snuck out of my bed just so that I could go to the ghetto to visit him. And this is a really volatile area. The corner men have warned me many times about it, but I want nothing but the best. I can’t promise anyone that I will stop until I go to my grave, and to tell you the truth, I wouldn’t mind dying for it because it would be like going out in style.
Ava, 25, student:
I agreed to carry weed out of St Elizabeth just so I could hook up with the guy. I am completely aware of the risk of jail time, but he’s that good. I’m not proud of this either, but I steal from my mom to get him things he likes. I just want to make sure I don’t lose him.
