MY STI
“So Teresa, you mean to tell me you purposely wore that skirt to entice me that night?” Brian asked.
“I could kind of feel your excitement the night we talked,” I said. “I don’t know if I did it on purpose or not, but I wore it, and you fell for my bait.” So, I had to know… “Other than my heart, as you would say, what really attracted you to me?”
“I must be honest, it was something different about you, not just your good looks, but it was I think your quiet spirit. Traveling the country speaking, I got hit on by a lot of women, especially after they found out I was single with no kids. The first night of revival you seemed like you were in your own world, and you were definitely not thinking about me, and that actually drew me to you. I had been chased by women so long, it felt good to actually be the hunter. Many women think it’s ok to chase after a man, but a real man doesn’t want to be pursued, he wants to do the pursuing. You let me pursue you and I liked it. The best man won, whether you believe it or not,” he said.
“Why would you say that?” I asked.
“I mean, I don’t believe your heart was mine before we married. I think I grew on you, and I’m still growing on you,” he said.
“Don’t say it like that,” I said. “You are the better man, not the best man, and yes, you have my heart, soul, body, mind, and everything else Pastor Raymond spoke of. Can I ask you a naïve question?”
“Better than anyone I know,” Brian said.
“Have you ever had a soul tie with a woman?”
“Nope,” he said.
“Come on, be honest. We’re married now and nothing will change that,” I said.
“Honestly, Teresa, you are my soul tie. I told you I slept with a woman, but it was lust, it was not love. I was only with her for the sexual benefits and nothing else. I knew whenever I wanted some, I could call her and she would let me come over. I did not love her—as a matter of fact, I really didn’t even like her. Let me tell you something my unsaved uncle told me years ago. He said a man can have sex with a woman and not have any feelings for her. A man can have sex with a woman, get up, take a shower and leave and not even know her name because we don’t get emotionally connected like women do. He said a lot of men play on women’s emotions because they know many women associate love with a feeling, but it’s not the case for most men.”
“I’m listening,” I said.
“Some men will do and say anything to get in a woman’s pants regardless of how long it takes. I know because I’ve done it,” he said. “But when I really sold out for Christ and made my mind up to live for him, I stopped wanting to sleep with her.
