This Is Roberto, My FB!
So, I’m at one of my clients’ house the other day, putting my massage table together. My client B. is a business woman in her sixties and has been getting massages from me for a few years now. While I was busy packing my things, the door bell rang and she asked me to get it. I opened the door and looked at a young stud in tight shirt and jeans, couldn’t have been older than 25. He greeted me with a broad smile “Hi!” and walked in as though he had been to B.’s place before. Trying to figure out who in the world this could be, I watched him walking over to her and giving her a kiss on her cheek. B. must have noticed the puzzled and clueless expression on my face when telling me “Oh, Andrea, this is Roberto, my FB!” And I saw Roberto looking at me with another big smile on his face. All I could say was “Oh, okay. Nice to meet you.” And with that I left those two to themselves. I guess he was there to massage something else ….. :-). While driving to my next appointment, I was thinking to myself that you just never know. I had no idea that B. even knew the term FB (F**k Buddy), let alone would have one. 🙂
Well, as you can imagine, she was eager to give me an explanation when I saw her for her next appointment. “Well, I decided a long time ago that I just don’t want to be bothered with the soap opera a relationship brings with it. I really have neither time nor patience for that anymore. So, I decided just to have a FB from time to time. I appreciate him and he appreciates my generosity, and to tell you the truth, I’m loving it! Works well for everybody involved. Heck, men have been doing it forever!” I remember smiling at her “confession” and telling her “Good for you! You go girl!” I filed this under “Things that make you go ‘Huh?’ ” 🙂
