Jen After the Spring Formal Dance

When she was in college at CC, there was a fall and a spring formal dance hosted by the Greeks. Several of her friends were in a sorority, and so she was invited. She got a little drunk, and ended up in a bedroom in the fraternity with two guys.

What she regrets is telling her college boyfriend after the fact. He was hurt, insanely jealous. They broke up. At the time, she felt bad--because she had hurt him. Because, what she did wasn't something she'd done before, and she'd been brought up to think it was wrong, something only the lowest of the low did. She wasn't a trashy slut. She was just a college student from a suburb of Denver. She wasn't even part of the Greek System. She didn't party that much, and studied all the time. She had a GPA nearly at 4.0. 

So did she regret her one-night stand with two frat boys? No. Would she do it again? Maybe not--at least not at a frat party, with frat boys. But would she have sex with two men at once? .... she's not sure.

She did it once, and that was fun. It's like an experience you can check off the list. Maybe perhaps like sky diving. A lot of her friends in college sky dived--once. Just to say they did. Maybe a rite of passage. But they didn't do a second time. Once seemed enough.

What she learned was to be careful about sharing such experiences. She's not told her husband, even though they'd been married several years now, and have a kid. College was long ago. Could it actually be 20 years?

Sometimes the past is best left in memory. Yet, still, she remembers. And sometimes when she is having sex with her husband, she is actually thinking about this night.
