<< This love I have for him is what I based all my hopes on for a "happily ever after". It's the deep kind of love that people share for family. And I was/am willing to build on it. But he seems to want just that. And "THAT" isnt enough for me. Maybe if I were 65-70, it would be. I am 38 and I need more.
Isn't what you are saying the same as ILYBINILWY? And what's the definition of "love", what you want or what he wants? I also think John's question begs an answer.
