09/13 The Nanny Affair, Part 2
Quote From: housewife52Eons ago, when I was about 15 years old, I babysat briefly for a couple who lived out the road from us. One night, as the dad was taking me home,(about a 2 minute drive) he began to tell me about his wife having problems, not being a wife to him,something along those lines. I said to him, "I don't think you should be telling me this." He immediately said,"You're right, I shouldn't be. I'm sorry." That was the end of it. I told my mother about it and we bother agreed that I wasn't going back.(And I never did.) Even though nothing happened to me, that was a creepy experience. To me he was an "old man". Probably in his thirties at the time. I assume he did that to see how I would respond. I'm thankful nothing worse happened. I had posted a message earlier about this being a problem in our culture in the present day. This happened to me about 38 years ago. I know exactly how you felt as it happened to me twice and the last time I told my older sister and it turns out he had a history of hitting on teenage sitters and the nice lady I sat for had no idea why she never could keep a sitter till my sister told her. She made some painful phone calls and learned some startling things about her so called devoted husband! If he has a habit like that he wont change. And Like you it was 20 years ago for me and last I know he never did change and she ended up having to leave.
