THE OTHER WOMAN

“At four I was madly in love with Alan Hirsch, who was madly in love with Cynthia Fishman. He played doctor with me but swore he would marry her when he grew up. At age four I was already the other woman.”

Gail Parent

I was not the other woman until I was about 28. Before that I only had to DEAL with the other woman. Not sure which is less fun.

At four I was madly in love with Jeff R, who was three. Even then I had a thing for younger men. Don’t think Jeff was Jewish, but he drove my parents and grandmother up a wall. Hmmm, should have seen the behaviour pattern starting even then.
