When you make a complete fool of yourself and he stays calm and helps you through it. One in a million?

The one thing that worries me is when you've known that it's going somewhere loads of times, and it hasn't.

Actually, that's not really true is it, 'cos every relationship gives you something, even if it's just a splitting headache and the experience that tells you that eventually 'you know it IS going somewhere...' will probably turn into 'you know it's going nowhere...'

Anybody read 'The Bridge Across Forever', by Richard Bach? Call me romantic old sucker, but I believed it. It was a real bummer to discover that Richard and Leslie split.

No! Say is isn't so! They were my only hope. When did that happen?

Well, I'm sure Richard and Leslie had a great time before they split, and learned whatever was there to learn. It was a very inspiring book.

I remember Buffy Sainte-Marie saying in an interview that she's been married 3 (or 4?) times...and that each marriage had been great for as long as it lasted that way. She obviously had no hard feelings or regrets about the past, and was thoroughly enjoying her present situation, and looking forward to the next adventure. Now, that's what I call wisdom! I wish I was that wise...

The ultimate test of love is found within oneself. The beloved for which people search waits patiently inside them. Most just keep looking for it outside themselves.

Ahhh... Go suck a lemon, LH!

(*G* Just kidding. But it's still February and spring has already arrived here in the form of Redwing Blackbirds and a Dandelion, no less, and I'd rather be thinking about not being alone for a change. Call me crazy, I don't know.)

They stroke your back and after a year or more, it still feels like little cattle prods all over your body.......

You share a kiss that still makes your insides flip over.

Just a thought: every relationship leads somewhere, but few go where we expect them to.

Some just lead around a corner (some send us 'round the bend!)

And some go on for miles and years...

Well, Guest, there's a book to keep under your pillow when someone's not with you, eh?

You think it's stopped going anywhere and then suddenly, just a few words from him and you're on cloud nine all over again.
