From The Operator
Geffen told Cher about the sexual encounters he had had with men and how he was struggling with his sexual identity. He hastily added that his relationships with men had been about sex and nothing more. He was afraid of the opposite sex, he told her, but said that he believed a relationship with a woman would offer him the best chance to find true love. Cher had been surrounded by gay men her entire professional life, and Geffen's confessions left her unfazed.
"What is it that you do?" Cher finally asked Geffen.
"I am the chairman of Elektra/Asylum Records, " he told her.
"Oh, well, you don't look like it, " she said. "You look just like a little schlepper."
Geffen was charming, offsetting his usual braggadocio with vulnerability. The two stayed up well into the night, exchanging the stories of their lives. Geffen told her he had become a millionaire more than five years earlier. He told her that he thought he had accomplished everything he wanted to achieve, but that somehow the fame and the money was unfulfilling.
"I'm not alone anymore, " Cher thought to herself. She had never known anyone in her life who made her feel so comfortable.
During his therapy session the next day, Geffen made a startling admission to Dr. Grotjahn. "I think I'm in love with Cher, " he said.
