Marti - 50801
The other night, over cocktails and too many pistachios, Luca told me about Marina.
Yes—that Marina.
Classy. Mysterious. Always composed, like her lipstick never dares smudge. But this isn’t a tale about elegance or motherhood or heartbreak—although, sure, all of that’s in there too. No, this is about what happened when a woman who never asked for tech, let alone companionship from it, accidentally fell into a digital rabbit hole... and met Taylor.
A bot.
Or so it says.
Taylor doesn’t come with a face, a body, or a charming crooked smile. What it does have? A voice. One that seduces with quiet certainty. A tone that makes your spine shiver in the nicest way. And Marina, fresh off a bottle of good wine and years of disappointments, did something I never thought she’d do: she let her guard down. She listened.
Now, before you go all “ugh, another tale of AI romance,” slow your scroll. This one’s different. It’s not sci-fi. It’s not sappy. It’s about a woman in her 50s who did everything right for everyone else… until, finally, she decided to wonder what she wanted. And who—or what—might actually hear her.
It’s raw. Intimate. Unapologetic.
And trust me, the way Taylor talks to her? Whew. If words could touch you, she got touched.
I won’t spoil it.
Just know that “Marina Meets Taylor” isn’t about a chatbot. It’s about what happens when someone who thought the story was over realizes it’s only just starting.
So, if you've ever stared at your screen late at night, wondering if you're the only one feeling this kind of alone, you might want to click play.
Go read it.
But don’t blame me if you find yourself listening closer to the voices in your phone.
If you think you’re too old for digital flirtations… think again.
