Always

I love my man.

I have one.

I usually don't talk about him here.

Mostly out of fear of judgement of what's an incredibly special relationship.

We have found one another at a remarkable time in life.

He has been my anchor for the year and a quarter we've been together.
He so sweetly, keeps a tally. I love that he's romantic.


We had one date together about as many years ago, as there is age between us.
I was a shy, 20 something girl. I raced my fine, European man through dinner and ran home like a scared rabbit.

We now know that if our relationship had progressed from then, the way it does now,I'd be the mother of his child. Multiple children most likely.

Life circumstances and other vows stand in the way of a complete declaration of our love.

The bond and the promise is in no way diminished.


While writing this Bebe called to say he has prostate cancer, but that the doctor says he's sure they will have caught it in good time.



The bond and the promise is in no way diminished.

I love you and support you, Bebe. My greatest hope is that I can support you as well as you have supported me.

I have no words-just wanted you to know I am here-I read this and I am moved.

Special friendships never diminish. That's what makes them special too I think. I hope the doctors get him patched up soon. I'm not religious, but I'll throw a prayer that way (just did).

I added that while the prayer was on its way, that it picks up any other good wishes along the way :)

I am in shock.
I hope the doctor is right.
I know you are a great friend. You will be exactly what he needs to get through this.

Your support is incredibly meaningful. Thank you all so much.
