with the in crowd, they'll see me hanging with the movers and shakers. He'll feel like such a loser when he hears about it. That for me will be the ultimate revenge. I can't wait. It's going to be a blast."
"You go for it, Jill. You'll have no trouble replacing him. Take a look at yourself in the mirror if you don't believe me, you're beautiful. You're only 34 and you have a body to die for, you're hot stuff. With that beautiful long brown hair you'll have the men chasing after you."
"I will and thanks again for being there. It means so much, it really does. Talk to you soon, bye, Sue."

Sitting on her living room sofa, Jill excitedly passed her phone to Sue, "Take a look at this guy."
Sue smiled, "Nice, very nice. Isn't that Sam Worrance, the real estate developer? I saw him on TV two nights ago."
"Yes, that's him alright. And check out this photo, that's Tim Mullerson, the top lawyer. And this one, that's Ed Hogart, the actor."
Sue looked up from the screen to face Jill, "It looks like you've been a very busy girl this last month. You sure don't hang about. So, which one will be the lucky guy?"
Jill grinned from ear to ear, "Right now, I just want to have fun, I'm out on the town 4 or 5 nights a week and I'm having a blast. I've met so many new people lately it's been great. And, I've had a lot of attention from the alpha males of this town so all in all it's been a lot of fun."
"I can see that. You're glowing, you look 5 years younger. I haven't seen you look this good in ages. Good for you, Jill. I'm so happy for you."
"Thank you. And I heard through the grapevine that John, that cheating bastard, has heard about my dating frenzy. Apparently he's not too pleased about it. I told you I'd have my revenge, and yes, it's sweet." Jill laughed.
"Serves him right, Jill. He must have been crazy to risk losing you, he got what he deserved. Silly man. Sounds like you're better off, much better off without him. That's all I can say about this whole sorry matter. And I bet he's the sorry one now. Good riddance to that useless excuse for a man."
Jill raised her eyebrows and stared at Sue. "Hey, he's not that bad. He made a mistake and I'm getting him back and I'll move on. But let's not stick the sword in too far, eh?"
Sue nodded her head. "You're right, I got a bit too carried away. So tell me, when am I going to meet your new man?"
The smile faded from Jill's face. "It's not like that, yet. I'm just dating, having fun, showing those men I can party and give as good as I get. There's plenty of time to find a replacement for John."
"You go for it, Jill. Sounds like you have it all figured out. You're happy and you're having a ball. Obviously if I wasn't happily married I'd be out there with you."
"I know you would, Sue. To be perfectly honest, you're better off at home in the arms of your husband. Going out to the bars and clubs is fun but don't forget I'm 34 now. I look around and I'm one of the oldest women there. Some of the girls look like they haven't even finished school yet. I suppose some of them haven't.
"This is all a bit of fun but I'm under no illusion that I'll be doing this for long, it's just too tiring when you have a demanding day job. You know, it´s one thing living like this when you're 24 and only getting started in your career, it's a different story 10 years later when you're running a business."
"Of course, different ball game," Sue nodded.
Jill crossed her arms. "Actually, and I'm surprised to be admitting this, I've started to wonder if it was such a good idea splitting from John. Maybe I over reacted and jumped to conclusions when I should have waited before telling him to move out."
"You're kidding me, right? He cheated on you and now you've changed your mind and that's ok for some reason?"
Jill furrowed her brow and pursed her lips. "I put 2 and 2 together and got 4 but he says I got 5. These guys I'm partying with aren't like John. They're the kind of men who do
