Mr. Prince looks like more than a prince

Therese uses the face of that great actor Robert Downey to portray his lover, Mr. Prince. Any similarities in lives led?

That's for you to take a guess, if you care to.

The Prince of her dreams

Yes, among all the lovers Therese had, it is Mr. Prince, that she fell in love with. In fact she could say, that right now her feelings for him have not diminished despite the many restrictions surrounding their 'relationship'.

Therese met Mr. Prince 14 years ago. She was still working very actively then. He was her neighbor. He lived alone. His wife left because she could no longer stand his womanizing. Because they were neighbors, she got to see him once in awhile, until one day, they discovered that they were both lonely and needed each other to warm and lust the night away. It happened in his place where they were drinking.

But Therese was with another man then. This man came to see her some days and every time, the visit turned to be a disaster. It wasn't too long that the man decided to just give support to his son and nothing else.

In the meantime, Mr. Prince conveniently provided Therese with a shoulder to cry on, someone who made her laugh with his nonsense and jokes. The arrangement was good. He was just next door. But there was a problem, he was out of work. It came to a point where he could no longer afford to pay his apartment and was asked to leave. Meanwhile, Therese was stuck in the place where they originally met.

Therese learned little by little about Mr. Prince. He essentially had a kind heart. But most times, he chewed too much more than he could swallow. She also eventually found out that the wife left with his kids; and that he had other consorts, one was a woman with whom he has a son, and another from whom he has three sons. These two, plus other unnamed and other short-lived flings on the side punctuated his existence. Mr. Prince's life was actually a big mess.

Therese was not sure why, despite the mess he brought along with him, she still longed and wanted to be near him. Why? He obviously had no money. Ironically, on countless times, Therese was more than willing to loan him money. Out of job and no clear life direction, Mr. Prince needed another lost soul to give a semblance of life to get on. There were points when Therese was clueless, not sure what to do. There were many questions: how he arrived at the life he was trying to live when she met him. Therese knew nothing substantial about his women, what they were like, or what sort of lifestyle they led. All she knew was that the woman with three kids was in a job which required international travel every year. About the other one, it was actually, also sketchy at one point.

But things will unfold to shock the daylights out of Therese.

Watch out for more.

Mr. Jones is Therese's current boyfriend

Mr. Jones is the father of Therese's youngest daughter, who is 1 1/2 years old. He is rich, educated and holds a responsible position in a very large company. He never comes to Therese apartment, only if really, really needs to, like when they both have an unsettled altercation. The last time was when he accused Therese of infidelity. The nerve. Who is he to speak to me about infidelity. True, he provides support for his child. But, they have this arrangement. Therese is not exclusive to him.

Mr. Jones kind of jealous of Therese's past lovers, specifically, Mr. Prince, who fathered one of her kids. This is what she can not comprehend. He wants to have all the rights with her , and yet Therese didn't have any with him. Her fault. She is a mistress.


This is my Mr. Jones look-alike, Hollywood actor and TV star, Timothy Busfield, to give a better look and feel of one of the characters in these stories.

And then came the children

So far, Therese has a boy, the eldest, and three girls. As to who fathered each child will have to remain a secret.

Therese's life's been great. She could not ask for more. She has what she needs materially as a result of a flourishing 'socially oriented' career. But in between, she had to give birth to her children. For one, she didn't engage in abortion. Her children were conceived and they were brought into this world she thought, for a reason. And whether, those reasons would lead to hurting everyone or anyone if they found out, is another story.

That is not within Therese purview anymore. Only time will tell.

Therese, a Piere Angeli look-alike?

This is the Italian actress Piere Angeli. Although she is not an exact replica, many ( specially the DOM's) say Therese's looks take after her.

If Piere Angeli does not seem familiar, here are some bits of info from Wikipedia - She was born as Ana Maria Piere Angeli on June 19.

Piere Angeli was launched by MGM "in Teresa (1951, Fred Zinnemann). Enthusiastic reviews for her eloquent and understated performance compared her to Greta Garbo. She received an Oscar nomination and won a Golden Globe. With Stewart Granger she played in The Light Touch (1952, Richard Brooks). She indeed brought a light touch of innocence to the film, but her next few films would be respectable but unexciting".

"Pier had a relationship with James Dean but, under pressure from her domineering mother, she married Catholic singer Vic Damone in 1954. MGM discovered another European ingénue, Leslie Caron, and they loaned Angeli out to other studios. At Warner Bros she made The Silver Chalice (1954, Victor Saville) which was only remarkable for the debut of Paul Newman".

"During the 1960's she worked in Europe. Few of her films during that period were notable, despite a strong performance in The Angry Silence (1960, Guy Green). She was reunited with Stewart Granger for Sodom and Gomorrah (1962, Robert Aldrich) and she played a brief role in Battle of the Bulge (1965, Ken Annakin). She made her final appearance in the low-budget sci-fi opus Octaman (1971, Harry Essex). On 10 September 1971 she was found dead of a barbiturate overdose. She was only 39 years old".

Now that you know who Therese look like, are you still wondering why she was popular with the men?

Who is Therese?

She has fantasized about getting a man of her own. Someone, who will father her four kids, at current count. They are not from one man but from several. She is totally not having pangs of guilt at all, for such is what life has taught her, thus far. She is not ashamed. She remains remorseless.

Why should she? Overall, life has treated Therese badly. She can only suffer so much. Experiencing pain and hunger at a young age, she learned to fend and take care of her own needs, as well as that of her mother.

Still a teen, she met this man who promised to help. Being young and naive, she found only too soon that he was just after her youthful body. And so the men began coming and slipping away from her life. Guilt? There were mouths to feed, bills to pay and needs to satisfy. Money was abundant, and so were the nice things she wanted. Not to mention the beautiful and elegantly furnished love nest she rented where some of the "physical love" offered on Therese's doorstep were consummated. She was at the top of her game.

There's more.

Beginnings, the Therese character

Therese has been a guest relations officer since she was 19 years old. Physically, lots of men told her she was very attractive. And she believed them. Why shouldn't she? These men have practically begged that she I provide them the leisure that entertained their humdrum lives. To her, it was just a job. Having not enough money to get a good education, she opted to get a dishonored life that promised and delivered a comfortable life.

Yes, a comfortable life. She always dreamed of nice, expensive and flashy things. There are no substitutes for these material things. And that's how Therese from the exterior. She is tall, fair and good skinned. She commands loads of lewd and meaningful stares and glances every time she drives her fashionable car, whatever it is at that moment. She has it the men's way. Whatever is their pleasure.

Therese's only problem is her voice. It is not as seductive as she wants it to be. The voice is high pitched, thin and squeaky. So, she is always better seen than heard.

But her real issues are buried deep within. If only she can totally tell all. Suffice it to say, the image does not totally, match the real person inside.

This is Therese journey, or perhaps a diary of what she has gone through in life. How she enjoys and yet hates the manner in which she lives.

She is Therese. But that is not her real name.

Watch out for more.
