Mistress means ....

1)(n.) A woman well skilled in anything, or having the mastery over it.
2)(n.) A title of courtesy formerly prefixed to the name of a woman, married or unmarried, but now superseded by the contracted forms, Mrs., for a married, and Miss, for an unmarried, woman.
3)(n.) The old name of the jack at bowls.

5)(n.) A woman regarded with love and devotion; she who has command over one's heart; a beloved object; a sweetheart.

Watched the movie "The Mistress" with the 'travel mistresses'. I am Ms. Emo, a cry - baby, but this movie did not make me cry at all, even if I have PMS. I have watched all of Lloydie's films and I do not like Derek but , I like "The Other Woman" better than "The Mistress".

The travel mistresses all wanted to get out of the theatre for varied reasons. Some were hungry, (especially me) , others needed the comfort room and in a hurry to pick up the kids from school. But we just had to find out how the movie was going to end. How else can it end? It won't be a "lived happily ever after" ending, unless those two old people die.
