Today was the day, I had first met A on a web dating service a few weeks before. We had sparked a great relationship, both being married and in our 30's we were after something new.

A had been married for close on 20 years and I for little over 4. Our sex lives had stagnated and we were in desperate need of a pick me up. we were after the kind of sex you can't have with your spouse, and something to reignite the excitement in our lives.

We had shared stories through MSN Chat which had been great fun, and had aroused each other. We had texted each other and were were well and truely UP for it! We had also taken the opportunity of a quick meet one afternoon after work as we both lived in the same city and both liked what we saw.

I had arranged lunch, I had booked a hotel, and all was set for the most wild afternoon of passion. She had joked that well we might get snowed in, as this was the depths of January and the forecast was not great.

I had never thought that seriously we might get snowed in. Imagine my disapointment when, in the morning, I heard that schools were closed and roads blocked. A, a nurse, had to cancel and instead of a wild afternoon of passion, had to make do with suggestive text messages and masturbation for our gratification.

We have yet to meet for that afternoon of passion but when we do it will be worth it.
