Tell us about your PARTNER(S). What did they look like? How well did you know them, had you hooked up before? How/Where did you meet them? How did you feel about them before the hookup? My partner was my best friend’s husband. He, my friend and I had all had sex together before. He’s tall, tan, muscular and has an accent.

How/where did the hookup BEGIN? What led to it? Was planning involved? Who instigated it? It happened at my apartment. My best friend, fiance (a woman) and I had gone out drinking. We had been talking for awhile about having group sex and my friend and I were hoping we could get my fiance to do it. After my friend’s husband got off work, he came over too. Not long after that, my fiance and our friend went into the bedroom. My friend was pretty tipsy and my fiance was mostly tired. I stayed on the sofa with my friend’s husband. She and her husband and I had all hooked up before, but my fiance didn’t know that.

What happened DURING the hookup? What sexual behaviors took place (e.g., oral, vaginal, anal, kinky stuff)? How did you feel during it? How did they behave toward you? Were they a good lover? What did you talk about? How did it end? I laid down next to him on the sofa and pulled the blanket up over me and he started touching my breasts. He kissed my neck, put his hand on my cheek and turned my head to kiss me on the mouth. I kissed him back.

I got up to see if my friend and fiance were up to anything. He stood behind me, grabbed my hips and while we were both clothed, he pulled my ass against him and he push his hips against me from behind.

While in my room, I talked to my friend for a minute and I think I whispered to her asking if she was going to get something started with my fiance. She said something about trying to. I went and got her water and brought it back. Before I went back to the living room, I took off my panties. When I came back, I opened another bottle of wine. I sat down next to him again. And he pulled down the top of my dress over my arms. He kissed my breasts and bit my nipples. I told him I could barely feel it so he bit me harder and he slapped my nipples. He kissed me again and I kiss him back. He pushed the skirt of my dress back and while on his knees in front of the sofa, he went down on me. It was extremely pleasurable. He was very good with his tongue and fingers.

I thought I heard something and I wanted to make sure that my fiance was still sleeping. I pushed him away and pulled my dress and went back to my room. I think I talked to my friend for a minute or two. She was mostly incoherent.

I went back to the living room and he asked if they were messing around. I told him no that they were sleeping. He was surprised.

I told him my fiance was too much of a prude. I don’t remember how we got back to the couch but he took of his pants. I think he had tight black underwear on. He pulled out his dick and started rubbing himself. He laid down on top of me. Can’t remember if he took his underwear off or not. He was rubbing himself again my hip while he was on top of me. He pinned my hands above my head. I got one hand lose and grabbed his dick. I moved to put him inside me, but he grabbed my hand and put it back above my head. He kept my hands pinned while he continued to rub himself against my hip until he came.

He said it was a shame that we didn’t have a toy. I said I did. I got one of my toys and he watched while I masturbated.

We fell asleep shortly after that.

But a year later she still was having issues with her husband lying so she wanted to know the details. I told her everything and she decided she didn’t want to be friends with me anymore.
