I agree with the sentiment too. I think it's a real truism. I think it's applicable in a lot more situations than just one where someone has been seeing someone else for 3 weeks. I don't know any details of Mish's situation, and if I hurt your feelings Mish...I apologize. Knowing what I know NOW...I just can't relate to the sentiment of "I want to be with you, I just don't want to commit...and never will". Especially in a situation involving a spouse of 20 years and a child. That's all. I wish true happiness for you Mish...you certainly deserve it.
"Always go straight forward, and if you meet the devil, cut him in two and go between the pieces." - William Sturgis, clipper ship captain, 1830's.
