Under the glow of the moon, secrets are hidden that few dare to tell. Tonight, I bring you the story of Roberta, a woman who was looking for something real in a world full of empty promises. But sometimes, what begins as an adventure can reveal truths we’d rather not face. Listen carefully, because not everything is as it seems…

Roberta, a woman in her forties, led a life that seemed full to others: she was professional, independent, and after a difficult divorce, she had managed to rebuild her life. However, in the sentimental field, things did not flow as she wanted. Despite her attempts to find a stable relationship, she only encountered men who seemed interested in temporary relationships, without commitment. Roberta was trapped in a spiral of meaningless dates, brief encounters and promises that were never kept.

One day, while checking his phone, he received a message from an unknown number. It was Daniel, a man who had obtained her number through a mutual friend. Although he didn’t pay much attention to it at first, the conversation flowed quickly. Daniel was young, attractive, and most surprising: direct. From the beginning he made it clear to Roberta that he wanted her. He didn’t mean to lie to her about his intentions or disguise what he wanted with empty promises. Plus, he had a girlfriend, and he said that bluntly too.

Roberta was attracted by his sincerity. After months of dealing with men who only played with her emotions, Daniel’s openness was like a breath of fresh air. It wasn’t that she was looking for a serious relationship with him, but something about his manner intrigued her. Even though some of her friends warned her not to get involved with someone like that, she decided to go ahead. After all, he had nothing to lose, right?

The days passed, and the conversations between Roberta and Daniel became more and more intense. He was explicit about his desires, detailing all the things he would do to her if they ever met. Roberta, although normally more reserved, was excited. It wasn’t just the physical excitement, it was the feeling of being desired in such a clear and direct way that kept her hooked.

One of her closest friends, however, looked at her skeptically. “He who talks a lot, does little,” he told her one afternoon while they were having coffee. “Don’t get your hopes up, Roberta. Men who say a lot usually disappoint.” But Roberta was determined. There was something in that emotion, in that promise of an intense adventure, that did not leave her indifferent.

Finally, the day arrived. After weeks of off-color conversations, they agreed to meet. Roberta took care of everything: she picked him up at work and took him to a nearby hotel. During the ride, the conversation was pleasant, although both were visibly nervous. It was the first time they had seen each other in person, and despite everything, Roberta felt good.

Upon arriving at the hotel, the tension increased. The room, with its dim light, seemed the perfect setting for what they had both anticipated for so long. The kisses started out timidly, but quickly escalated. Daniel’s hands explored her body with the urgency he had promised in his messages. Roberta, for her part, was willing to let herself go, eager for all those words to become reality.

However, just as the passion reached its peak, something happened. Daniel, who had been so sure and explicit in his intentions, simply couldn’t follow through. His body, which he had so often described as the vehicle of his desire, did not respond. Erectile dysfunction appeared like an uninvited intruder in that moment of intimacy, completely breaking the atmosphere.

Roberta tried to remain calm, determined not to make a drama out of the situation. “It’s okay,” he told her softly, trying to ease the discomfort in the air. But the reality was that they both knew that something important had gone wrong. Daniel, who had built his image around confidence and desire, was now vulnerable and ashamed. They dressed in silence, and after a few minutes of small talk, Roberta took him back to his work.

The following days were confusing for Roberta. Although she tried to downplay the matter, the truth was that she felt disappointed. It had been an encounter that not only failed to meet her expectations, but also left her with more questions than answers. Why couldn’t Daniel, after everything he had promised, keep? But beyond the physical issue, what really affected her was the way in which he disappeared. After that day, Daniel stopped responding to her messages. What had previously been a constant conversation now turned into an awkward silence.

Finally, when Daniel reappeared, he did so in a cold and distant manner, as if what had happened was unimportant. Roberta, with her pride wounded, decided to stop looking for him. He understood that it was not worth investing more time or emotion in someone who was not willing to be honest with himself. Her friend’s words continued to echo in her mind: “He who talks a lot, does little.”

Over time, Roberta looked back and realized that what she was really looking for was not what Daniel had offered her. She wanted to be desired, yes, but she also wanted to be respected and valued for who she was, not just her body. That experience, although disappointing, taught him a valuable lesson about empty promises and expectations that are not always met.

And so, under the light of the moon, Roberta understood that not all words should be taken seriously, and not all promises are worth listening to. Life goes on, with its ups and downs, and under the cover of night, secrets are kept again.
