Almost four years ago, I fell in love for the first time--twenty-five years too late--and began an affair. Over the years, Kevin and I have met several times a week and email several times a day. I have kept almost all of the emails that I sent to him and that he sent to me. Along the way, there has been laughter and tenderness and heat...and heartache.

This blog is the posting of our daily emails. It chronicles the lives of two people over a four year period so far, and tells the story of our burgeoning love against the backdrop of New York City.

The names and addresses have been changed to protect the innocent; the rest is 100% real.

The daily update structure helps keep the blog as authentic as possible as well as living up to its title. It also strives to provide the reader with the kind of pleasure that a soap opera offers--a daily dose of voyeuristic fun.

Please begin at the beginning, otherwise, little will make sense.

Enjoy.

Big Doors

I can’t believe how well we hit it off. The wine may have had a little to do with it, but I think it just helped break the ice. I was so nervous. I wasn’t really sure what to do when the not beautiful woman, “far from it” turned out to be a goddess.  It is amazing I could string two words together let alone a sentence.

I am glad you got to spend that time with your family. As we get older those occasions become fewer and further apart. You have to grab those moments when you can. Just like I have to grab you when I can. I am really looking forward to taking you in my arms and doing some very serious kissing. We need to get together soon.

 Are you considering any visits into the city next week?

 I am so into you.

 K.

 Btw a million emails are fine.

 If you keep saying things like this to me, I wouldn’t be able to get into a restaurant or a museum, because my head wouldn’t fit through the door. 

I am so into you too : ) Are you around? Away for the week-end or in town? Had a sports-filled day?

 Don’t worry, museums have big doors.
