Teeter, William Bill

I remember Bill walking into Atlas Savings and Loan on Market St in 1983 after getting off his motorcycle and I fell instantly in lust. So handsome and gentle in nature. I was 23 and he was 36. We flirted back and forth for quite some time and then dated. He, unfortunately was a restless soul and flitted from boyfriend to boyfriend when all I wanted was to marry him and settle down. He would always come back to me to which I would ask And where have you been?. He would say I was in a relationship. Tiring of not being the one he wanted to be in a relationship with I decided to let him go his own way. I missed him for the rest of his life as the one who got away. I ran into him @ The Eagle in May or June of 1988 after someone had told me he had already died (!). Talk about seeing a ghost! In fact, that's what he said You look like you've seen a ghost! Did someone tell you I died?. We embraced and kissed and caught up and he told me he had AIDS. As I was HIV+ it was sad to hear he had progressed to AIDS. I was able to tell him how I felt about him not choosing me for more than a casual hookup every once in a while and I told him, I could have loved you.... He said, I know. and expressed remorse. We said goodbye. I then read the obit the following January. When I told him I could've loved him, I should have said I've always loved you... I still miss him.
