Early riser

I was talking to my European male buddy via IM, and up pops in a local guy that I had briefly fooled around with once.
He is under the delusion that if we are “in love and married” that somehow it is better than anything else. No matter that he has a wife (the 2nd) and that he is partially impotent.
Not that I am averse to Viagra and vibrators. I am just averse to a man who will not come out of his wallet for something that has a price. I do not haggle and bargain over my time or my body. As a married man, there is no illusion of love.
I closed the convo after a few lines of chat, as I did not have the ability to be kind. It was 5a.m. my time and I was yawning.
Around 5 or so days later, he sends an email asking to chat with me before he went to work.
I relented. I do like to wrap up lose ends before I dismantle a former relationship. He may not do it but he could drive over and knock on the door.
As one may expect, he was full of sorrow, apology and fervent promises. But then he decides it is a good idea to tell me that he will get a divorce and give me everything he owns, if I only agree to marry him, not just cheat with him.
I was always firmly on the side of cheating. I do not want a man to leave his wife for me, because that will be my fate as well, one day when he needs a new ego boost.
It became more and more frantic, as I repeated that I could not give him what he wants. No one woman really can.
He even started talking $$$, the subject near and dear to my heart. But I wouldn’t back down.
Luckily, we have the ‘block’ feature in email and IM.
