Someone told me once that romantic love is something you recognise only when you feel it, so I can only deduce that all those of us who doubt ever feel it, we didn,t feel it for real.

To the OP, being yourself and empower yourself is a great attitude. Thus, there are many single guys out there. I mean if that guy wants to go with his wife, what's the point in going on with him in a possible romantic relationship? In the case it's a friendship it's ok but if it's more, which it's the point?
