Exposed: Confessions of a Groupie Part 2 of 3 Written by Robert Littal Email Robert Littal
In part 2 of our expose’ on the lives of athletes in relation to groupies, we speak to the wives and girlfriends to get their perspective. Similar to part 1, I conducted 5 separate interviews with 5 different women. Some of the questions were for all of them others were specific to their situation. I think you will be very surprised, as I was at some of their responses.
The Interviewer:
Robert Littal
The Interviewees:
Sandra- Ex-Wife of prominent in the NBA Tiara- Wife of player of a prominent player in the NBA Theresa- Girlfriend of player drafted in 2006 NFL Draft Rachelle- Girlfriend of a player drafted in the 2006 NBA Draft Denise- Married for 15 years to MLB player.
RL- How long have you been with your significant other?
Sandra- We were married for 3 years, we have been divorced for 6 months now.
Tiara- We have been married for 3 ½ years.
Theresa- Since our junior year of high school.
Rachelle- Ever since my freshman year and his sophomore year of college.
Denise- 15 years.
RL- How did you meet?
Sandra- A mutual friend hooked us up. I went to a game and we went out afterward. It wasn’t that long after we started dating exclusively.
Tiara- I am not going to lie we met at a club and I am a little embarrassed to say that we had sex that same night. I thought that would be it, but he called me the next day and asked me out to lunch. He apologized and told me it meant more to him than a 1 night stand. I was smitten from that point on.
Theresa- Wow, it just started out as a little puppy love high school thing. We have probably broken up at least 100 times, but we always find our way back to each other.
Rachelle- We were both on the track team. It was like that movie “Higher Learning” or one of those John Singletary movies. I think he was attracted to me because we were both competitive and I had a nice ass (laughs).
Denise- I was working at a bar in Texas when he was with the Rangers. We were both young, but I was a more experienced. We went out a few times, the next thing I knew he was asking me to quit my job and move in with him. Best decision that I ever made.
RL- Ok, let’s cut to the chase, has your significant other cheated on you?
Sandra- I never caught him, but I believe so.
Tiara- No. I trust my husband completely
Theresa- You can never be 100% sure and we have had a lot of 1 day or 1 week breakups, so I wouldn’t be shocked, but it would hurt if I ever found out he did.
Rachelle- To be honest, I am not sure, but here is a secret that he doesn’t know. I cheated on him once, so I don’t know what I would do if I found out he did the same thing. I might be relived, because I feel guilty about what I have done even though I don’t regret it.
Denise- Oh yeah, all the time.
RL- Rachelle, why did you cheat?
Rachelle- When you are dating an athlete at a major university there isn’t a lot of time for romance and snuggles you know what I mean? I was starting to feel like basketball was more important to him than me. I was there for him when he was a nobody. He would come crying to me and when I say crying I mean in tears when he wasn’t getting any playing time or when the coach would curse him out. As soon as he starting to get some playing time and people were whispering in his ear how great he was and females who didn’t give him the time of day started to pay attention to him, he started to push me away. I don’t know if he did it on purpose, but he did do it. I hade a male friend, who I knew was interested in me, but treated me so well that I never discouraged him and he was there for me when (name withheld for privacy) wasn’t. One night I got into a huge fight with (name withheld for privacy) and I called my friend up just to talk, but I knew what I was going to do. It had a few drinks to get up the nerve, but we had a beautiful night together and even though I feel guilty I don’t regret what I did. The few people I have confided in with this ask me why I am still with (name withheld for privacy) and not with my friend.
RL- Why aren’t you with your friend if he treated you so well?
Rachelle- It is not like (name withheld) is a bad guy and to be honest he is a big man on campus, so we get into the hottest parties; we get free meals and the whole 9 yards. I know that sounds shallow, but it did play a part in it. I was caught up in the lifestyle a bit, but I think I may have made a mistake.
RL- Denise, do you and your husband have an open relationship?
Denise- Not really, he still swears up and down that he is faithful, but I am not an idiot. He is a professional ball player. I have found hotel receipts, open condoms in our home, phone and text messages. I could go on and on. Bless his heart, but he is not very good at hiding what he does. He even had sex with a good friend of mine that he didn’t know that I knew.
RL- This maybe a dumb question, but does this bother you in the least?
Denise- It use to, but here is the reality. I haven’t had to work for 15 years and I will never have to work another day in my life. I can buy whatever I want and do whatever I please. I have beautiful kids that are set for life, plus he treats me like a queen. Who wouldn’t want a life like that? Also he isn’t the only one who has had some indiscretions.
RL- Explain?
Denise- He is not around from anywhere between 6-9 months a year and as a woman I have needs as well and I am not shy about getting them fulfilled.
RL- Tiara are you really 100% sure your husband is faithful?
Tiara- Yes
RL- Are you sure?
Tiara- Yes, why do keep asking?
RL- What if I told you that while doing interviews for this story I interviewed a young woman and your husband name came up in the interview?
Tiara- I would say whoever that bitch is she is lying about whatever she said about my husband. There are so many woman who have claimed to have been with him. You really need to check your sources because I am sure all the information she is giving you is false and that she is just trying to get some attention.
RL- Originally I was thinking the same thing, so I did what I did with all of the women I have interviewed I went out and tried to verify their information as much as I could. Once I found out she was speaking about your husband, I contacted her again to get more in detail information, so you can verify if she was lying or not. If she was I wasn’t going to use any of her interview. She informed me that your husband has a (information withheld for privacy issues) and a (information withheld for privacy issues). She also provided a picture of her with your husband. She stated that the only way that you could know this was if you knew what he looked like naked. Could you verify if this information is correct?
(At this point Tiara has decided she does not want to continue with the interview and has asked that the incriminating evidence against her husband be withheld).
RL- Sandra what makes you think your ex-husband had cheated?
Sandra- I found numerous phone numbers and women have come up to me and told me things about my ex that could not have known unless they had been with him.
RL- Is that the reason you got a divorce?
Sandra- One of the reasons, but not the main one. He was an abusive asshole and that was the main reason.
RL- What do you think of groupies?
Sandra- I think you have to have low self esteem just to sleep around like that. I feel sorry for them.
Theresa- They are prostitutes plain and simple. They sleep with celebrities for money and gifts. That makes them a prostitute.
Rachelle- I don’t think much about them at all. Men in general are going to seek out women. Athletes have women seeking them, so it makes it harder for them to be faithful. The thing is that women have more groupies than most athletes. Let me wear a nice little outfit during the spring, just on my way to class 7-8 guys will try to talk to me. So for every woman that wants him, there are 3-4 guys trying to get with me and I make sure he knows that.
Denise- They are a necessary evil. They are trying to get what you have, but there is a reason why some women become wives and others groupies.
RL- What is the reason?
Denise- Groupies are disposal and men only see them for their appearance. To be a wife a man has to respect you for more than just your tits and ass. If I left my husband today, he wouldn’t be able to function; I am that indispensable to him.
RL- Theresa and Rachelle, you are dating players who either have been drafted to professional sports leagues. Are you worried about being dumped when they hit the big time?
Theresa- We have been together for so long, I am not worried about it. He has claimed to be done with me more times than I can count only to come running back. One of the first things he did after he got drafted was buy me a engagement ring, so I am pretty secure.
Rachelle- I am a nervous, I have heard stories of high school and college sweethearts getting dumped as soon as their man gets drafted. It is funny the way I ran across your name and your need for athletes girlfriends and wives, was on a message board talking about my fears about him leaving me. He says he is not ready for marriage, so I am concerned.
RL- Last question and it is a 2-parter. Do you have any regrets about being with an athlete and are you happy?
Sandra- I was very happy after I got the divorce settlement, so in the end it was worth it and I have no regrets.
Theresa- There have been times where I wonder if all the hurt and breakups are worth it, but then he hold me how much he thinks his signing bonus will be and it changed my mind and I am being totally honest with you. I have been told the life is different when you are with someone in the pros, but I am excited about our future together.
Rachelle- I thought I would regret cheating on him and while I feel guilty, I don’t regret it because he treated me like crap back then. It has been better lately, but to be honest I don’t know how much longer our relationship will last. I have some girlfriends who have told me to do all type of crazy things to keep him, from trying to get pregnant to faking pregnancy to get him to marry me. Am I happy? Not really, but I do love him. I don’t know what is going to happen after the draft, I can only hope and pray for the best.
Denise- I couldn’t be happier, like I told you before the best decision I ever made was quitting my job and moving in with him. No regrets at all.
(Post Script)
Tiara emailed me 3 days after our original interview; she has agreed to let me share with you the contents of that email.
“Robert,
I want to apologize for ending our interview like that, but you have to understand I didn’t appreciate the way you set me up with the questions knowing the impact it would have on me. I understand you are doing your job and I did come to you, but you could have done it in a different way. With that being said I would to ask you for a favor. Please do not include the two pieces of information you presented to me that incriminates my husband. If you want to use what we talked about up to that point and even this email for your story that is fine I don’t really care and I am not going to threatening to sue you or anything. It is just that I have decided I will not be confronting my husband about this because I am sure he will be able to connect the dots with this story. I would like to thank you for opening my eyes to the activities my husband is engaging in. I hope your story and you career in general is a success.
God Bless, Tiara”
I just wanted to point out that it was pure coincidence that Tiara’s husband turned out to be the one of the men that Candy (from the previous Groupies Interview) had spoke to me about. All of the women interviewed contacted me, so it was not my intention to “expose” her husband. In total I interviewed about 50 women, some were total liars, others didn’t really offer much with their answers, and so I had to pull the 10 women whose interviews were the best and whose information I could confirm. I wish Tiara the best and hopes everything works out with her and her relationship. Part 3 coming soon.
