Matthew B--Thanks! And a big Congratulations on your recent marriage! I agree that "Love is what makes life worth living." Best of luck to you both!
Tucker--I hope the "It happens" and "been there" referred to a happy ending in your experience...
Love can be a gamble...and as Frankie Lane sang in the song "Moonlight Gambler": "If you haven't gambled on love and lost, then you haven't gambled at all."
But then again, experiencing love can be the greatest thing in this life...as Nat "King" Cole sang in "Nature Boy": "The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return."
(I love quoting songs!)
