Good Girl, Bad Girl

Sienna Miller heals Balthazar Getty with breast therapy as he struggles with the guilt over the breakdown of his marriage. (via Webster’s is My Bitch)
I’m still fairly friendly with Dirk, the married guy who has wanted me for ages. I’ve got to be careful with him though. Today he tried to manoeuvre me into a dark place in order to have some sort of adulterous contact, but I resisted his amorous advances and stayed out of his clutches. A few minutes after, I recalled a line from The Lord’s Prayer, despite the fact that I gave up Catholicism more than a decade ago: “And lead us not into temptation.” Fear of sinning wasn’t what stopped me from succumbing though, I just didn’t want to become entangled in such a messy situation. I’ve suggested so many things to him, (talking to his wife, marriage counselling, using a prostitute, etc.) but he doesn’t want my advice…
Of course I fancy him - in his twenties he was a professional model, and even at 39 years of age he’s the best looking man who’s ever shown an interest in me - but I don’t see the point in being more than friends with him. His main focuses are his penis, and maintaining the lifestyle that he has set up for himself; although he is fond of me and often says that I’m a “nice person”, he’s all about his own needs. That said, I like him as a friend; he’s quite a character, but even if he wasn’t married I doubt we’d be a good match for a relationship as he’s too selfish, unfocussed and unsubtle.
Perhaps Sienna feels justified in stealing the affections of a married man, but I wonder what the future holds for this tainted love.

No man can resist the unholy charms of Sienna Miller.

Unholy is definitely the mot juste.

Granted, I’ve never met him, never met you, never seen the two of you interact, BUT, just on your essay here, I’m ready to diagnose Dirk.
He’s not your friend, he’s a user. If he were your friend, he wouldn’t be pressuring you to become the “other woman”, the home wrecker who can later take the blame for the failure of his marriage, which he’s obviously not interested in improving but lacks the courage to end himself. He may be handsome, but stop letting him waste your time.

I loved her in Interview.
Yeah, I said it.

Tim: You’re right, he is a user. His family is fairly prosperous and I think he’s used to getting whatever he wants without working for it. He’s not happy in his marriage but he’ll stay with his wife so that she doesn’t get half of his assets from their divorce. I try to avoid him sometimes, but it’s can be difficult as he visits me at work occasionally.
J.D.: I haven’t seen Interview, but I’ll look out for it. I didn’t like her in Casanova, but the whole film was quite bad anyway. She looked so plain as a brunette too.
