Sweetness of Weakness

Recently, while at a gas station in Morrisville, NC, I made a purchase and mentioned to the cashier (an older Asian gentleman) that the purchase was one of my weaknesses. He blushed a smile and said, "never tell a man your weaknesses, he will mostly likely use it to his advantage." He winked and handed me my purchase. I  smiled back and thanked him for the advice. As I walked out of the station, I realized the truth in his words - although, York Peppermint Patties are not high on the list of weaknesses to manipulate me - there are some weaknesses I keep close to the vest and share ONLY when appropriate.

Two weaknesses pretty high on my list that I don't mind sharing include: watching Dr. Who (I am a die-hard Whovian!) and buying Italian leather shoes (size 38.5 or 39). Each of these are as sweet a pleasure as the York Peppermint Patties on my tongue. Yummy!

Every woman has a weakness... shoes, clothes, food, sex, money, significant other(s) or that pleasure spot on her [you insert the word].  Whatever it may be, it is that woman's burden to carry, beast to tame or pleasure to fulfill. My advice to women on weaknesses is to own it, acknowledge it and know your limits. If by chance you happen to find yourself in a situation involving a high-level weakness, be a GOOD GIRL and set conditions early so you'll have control on the progression of events. Remember a weakness can become a slippery slope towards an addiction.
