The series “Lexicon of Love” offers readers space to tell their love stories.
Mara*, 62: “40 years ago I experienced a passionate, wildly romantic relationship with Linus, a married man whom I loved very much, just as he loved me. We traveled to Paris and Brittany, enjoyed wonderful food, wonderful sex, and I never felt as like a woman as I did with him again.
His wife and son knew about us and were understandably against this liaison, and I too began to have increasing doubts. Finally I separated and contact broke off. Until Linus called two years ago and invited me to dinner.
