Does it mean anything that W and I after 29 years did not bring in the New Year together...
New Years Eve is a romantic time. I had trouble with this myself last night, but things look better this am. My thought is a S that is questioning their M/R isn't emotionally capable of reaching out to their LBS b/c of the history involved, remembering midnight kisses in the past, etc.
All it means is the R is such that we missed out on a special night with the one we love. But it doesn't mean that 12.31.10 couldn't be different/better. Keep the faith.
