Maitre d’Amour
He
was elegant, handsome and sophisticated.
Gracious in speech and action, he charmed everyone, most especially
women. He knew the right wines, the
right people, the right places.
Everywhere he went, he found friends.
But he lacked passion.
Imperturbable, he took all things in
stride – including his divorces.
His ex-wives, his ex-girlfriends all
agreed that they loved him but that his distant reserve frustrated them. They thought that he didn’t REALLY CARE.
When the break-ups were over his reaction
was always the same - he would look at the new woman and say, “My darling, our
table is ready.”
