I'm not some Belle du Jour wannabe. For one thing, I'm nowhere near as fabulous as Billie Piper (major girl crush), and for another -
I don't want anyone in the entire world to know what I do.
Not a single person, whether it be a family member or a best friend, knows that this is why I can afford three new dresses from Aqua each month and still afford the rent. It's all very curious my life, to them.
I have more than one best friend, but without them knowing it makes me feel better about myself. Don't get me wrong, my 'extracurricular' activities don't make me feel
worse, I really don't mean that. It's that I love playing another side of myself when I'm out with an SD. The more romantic, beautiful, elegant, funny side that often gets overshadowed when I'm tired or grumpy, the real Elle that my friends and family know.
If my SD is allowed to escape from the world of work and family issues and ... flatulence ... then why can't I too dispose of any part of me? When I add the final touches to my eyeshadow and walk out the door for a fabulous 3 course meal in a top London restaurant, my confidence increases and I feel beautiful.
Doesn't every SB deserve to feel like that too, not just their SDs?
So I say, sod the real world.
