By the way, it occurs to me that you guys over here in Piecing have a much harder job than those of us on our own...once the initial six months of shock are over, we can move on. I am not saying it's the best place to be - just try watching those travel TV shows about romantic getaways for two, or the commercials for Disneyworld trips filled with images of happy complete families, BUT I see everyone over here working so hard. Don't give up, Jethro, I know the prize will be worth it in the end! In watching people around me, I am coming to have much more respect for those "comfortable" relationships, which may not be all that exciting, but I believe they are more stable.
