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.

Good morning, my love!

What a perfect night! I'm so into you, it isn't even funny. I had such a great time. I always do with you. Now, I can claim the title of HFG with pride and joy : )

Are you working on your music? Can you meet around 1 or 1:30? Should we have brunch then walk on the High Line?

I love you soooo much.

HFG

We went to a charming eatery in the Village for brunch.




Then we walked hand in hand in the High Line Park, pausing to look at this or that flowering bush. At the wooden benches, he took my hand and helped me down the steps. We sat together at the plates of glass, looking onto the bustle of the street below and the high rises of Manhattan beyond. We sat like this we two among all those people, none knowing our secret. To them, we were simply a couple, a pair of lovers, free as birds. And at that moment, we were.
