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.

Sweet Kevin

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays!
 
 
* NOTE
On Thursday, July 19, 2012, I was on the road to and from Vermont, so Kevin and I didn't have much chance to communicate. We still managed : )

Hello HFG,
 
I feel asleep.  What was the fight about?  Road trips can induce conflict.  They can also be bonding experiences.  So much time spent in confined spaces.  Did you get caught in the storm?  It was very dramatic here.  Work was busy and will be today also.
 
Stay safe.
 
I love you,
 
Me

Hello HFG,
 
I hope you are enjoying your road trip.  I just got back from the gym.  Got a great workout in fight class.  Had a lot of fun too.
 
Work was a drag.   Tomorrow will be too.
 
I will be up for a while.  Let me know if you are around.  Otherwise, goodnight my love.
 
SNB
