So sorry you're feeling that way, EmptyG. I'm glad your conversation went well, but a feeling as intense as love tends to stay around for a long time -- even when the relationship is a ghost ship sailing through memory's waters. I hope you won't give up hope on love, though; that's something I'm working on very hard myself. Thing is, in my experience, it tends to turn up through events that seem so minor at the time but somehow bring me and someone else together. I've never sought out love and been successful. Instead, I've rounded a corner too fast and bumped into it, dear friend. Cheshire Cat
