In part one of this two-part episode, my lover Siva and I cuddle up in his basement and record a super sweet episode that makes my heart sing. This episode is a departure from the usual angst, but don't worry... it's still full of big emotions, drama, and laughs.

I read diary entries from our first, second, and third date, and we discuss how it felt when I broke things off with him. Then, we both tell the story of how it felt to reconnect and (almost) immediately fall in love.  I cry multiple times and there is so much sweetness and laughter (I'm talkin' about the episode, but also our relationship, lol) and it was so nice to reminisce.

I also reveal how I first came up with the prompt, Dear Future Lover, which eventually turned into a whole anthology of poetry. Siva reads my favourite poem and shares what the last three years has been like for him, dating this wild and angsty human. 

I love how we love; I love how we fight. I'm excited to share our story with my listeners. Hope you all enjoy!
