If I know that friendship would lead to more I think I could do it. If I think friendship will lead to nothing but friendship I don't know if I can. Does that make sense?
Show me where in life you get this kind of guarantee.
It is easy to walk over flaming hot coals if you know that your W waits for you on the other side.
Yes?
Be her friend?
Only if it fulfills YOU and serves YOU.
Is that an outcome?
Then it is a means to an end and has no substance.
You love your W as long as she is loving you back?
You will be friends with her as long as she will some day reconsider your M?
2 you know the answer to this.
My goal is to some day be the person my dog thinks I am
