Modern Love: Season 1 episodes

When the Doorman Is Your Main Man

“Ours was a common and unsung friendship, that between women... More living in New York, single and alone, and the doormen who take care of them, acting as gatekeepers, bodyguards, confidants and father figures.”

When Cupid Is a Prying Journalist

“I tossed out one last question: ‘Have you ever been... More in love?’ No one, he said, had ever asked him that in an interview. ‘Yes,’ he finally answered. ‘But I didn’t realize it until it was too late.’ Then he asked me to turn off my recorder. I hit Stop."

Take Me as I Am, Whoever I Am

“My personal life was another story. In love there’s no... More hiding: You have to let someone know who you are, but I didn’t have a clue who I was from one moment to the next.”

Rallying to Keep the Game Alive

“We rallied, not with the adrenaline-pumping determination to win at... More all costs, but with the patience and control that came with not wanting it to be over: not the summer, not our son’s childhood, not this game, ever.”

At the Hospital, an Interlude of Clarity

“There is never a good time to fall off your... More couch onto a martini glass and begin losing a dangerous amount of blood, but having this happen in the middle of a promising date is an especially bad time.”

So He Looked Like Dad. It Was Just Dinner, Right?

“He was very handsome. He wore gray turtleneck sweaters and... More smelled like mint aftershave and old books. He was 55 and recently divorced for the second time. He was my father. He wasn't really my father.”

Hers Was a World of One

“There was no guarantee that doing an open adoption would... More get us a baby any faster… in fact, our agency warned us that, as a gay male couple, we might be in for a long wait.”

The Race Grows Sweeter Near Its Final Lap

“Old love is different. In our 70s and 80s, we... More had been through enough of life’s ups and downs to know who we were, and we had learned to compromise. The finish line was drawing closer.”
