>> "I'd treat you like a queen", "I'd make you so happy", "I want you as my wife", "I want you to have my baby", on top of all the many complimentary things he says.<<

I'm sorry, that just sounds like the biggest load of cr@p to me. I know you believe he means it, but it sounds too saccharine to me.

It kind of reminds me of this married guy I met during the D who had a crush on me. He would ply me with all kinds of ridiculous compliments whenever I ran into him while I was out with my girlfriends. Yeah, I know I'm smart, beautiful and amazing, but when someone lays it on that thick... well... I feel like they are desperately trying to convince me of something.


There is no arriving, ever. It is all a continual becoming.
