FLTC, I'll give you my all-time favourite comment by W (it has also been voted "best comment" by my friends too!). She started complaining that I wasn't romantic, which was the latest in a string of neverending complaints. I, the fool I was, took these complaints seriously and tried to do better so I began sending flowers, making her heart shaped sandwiches for her lunch, bringing the odd treat to her workplace during lunch hour etc. Her response after a few months was "stop doing these things, you only do them because you know I like them" What a bastard, eh! The bottom line is that no matter what I did it was not allowed to make any impact. There was no interest in working on the M but there was an interest in tearing me down whenever the opportunity arose. Your L of L story reminded me of that little gem. FLTC, the thing that we can hold inside is that we did everything we could, we went the extra mile. We can hold our heads up whereas our S's cannot. That is worth something, isn't it?
