Sanford Love Letters
Posted By jss on June 24, 2009
So her name was Maria, and Gov. Mark Sanford of South Carolina fell in love with her. And vice versa.
TheState.com has it all.
Exclusive: E-mails between Sanford, woman; Woman in affair declines interview
From Sanford to Maria:
… Lastly I also suspect I feel a little vulnerable because this is ground I have never certainly never covered before – so if you have pearls of wisdom on how we figure all this out please let me know… In the meantime please sleep soundly knowing that despite the best efforts of my head my heart cries out for you, your voice, your body, the touch of your lips, the touch of your finger tips and an even deeper connection to your soul.
From Maria to Sanford:
… You are my love … something hard to believe even for myself as it’s also a kind of impossible love, not only because of distance but situation. Sometimes you don’t choose things, they just happen… I can’t redirect my feelings and I am very happy with mine towards you.
So … does he catch a break from voters because he’s in a love triangle instead of a straightforward sex scandal? I’m guessing … not in South Carolina, he doesn’t.
He’s ditched Maria. He wants his family back. His wife says she wants to repair their marriage.
I wonder if we’ll ever get an honest answer to this question:
Was it worth it, Mark?
Because, when all is said and done … it might have been. You know?

"Into Temptation" is a usually-but-not-always safe-for-work forum about evolving social-sexual networks and how they have changed and are changing lives. It will also loosely chronicle the research, writing and publication, I hope in 2010, of a book by the same name.















Once again, someone caught being human. Of course it was worth it. Nothing makes you feel more alive than a passionate affair. Incredibly addictive, like shooting up heroin. His life has more depth, dimension, character, intrigue… His life is very interesting right now.
