Yes, I know ... this sounds like a particular bad episode of the Jeremy Kyle show, but don’t judge before you finished reading.
I’m a 42 year old widow, who moved back to the UK in 2019 after living abroad with my late husband for almost 15 years. Two days after I arrived back, I attended the wedding of my sister’s eldest daughter. The perfect opportunity to see my family again, I thought.
Because I live in London and the wedding was in Yorkshire, I decided to drive up the day before and take a room at a local hotel. After diner I was reading a book by the fire when a young man asked if he could sit in the chair opposite. He was in his mid 20’s and really REALLY attractive. There was eye contact, his smile made me blush, he offered me a drink and we ended up in my room having the most incredible sex. When I woke up the next morning, he was gone. Although I never had a one-night-stand before, I somehow had expected it and was okay with it.
But when I arrived at the church later that morning, my sister came over and said ‘let me introduce you to groom’ and called out his name. A man in a morning suit turned around and I was looking at the same man who had been in my bed just a couple of hours earlier. It was somewhat awkward, as you can imagine.
At the time I didn’t say anything, I didn’t want to ruin my niece’s big day, but now I’m not sure it was the right thing to do. What do you think?
