I've been watching 'The Office' reruns lately and it recently hit me how dynamically similar S and I are to Pam and Jim or Michael and Holly. True, they candied those stories a bit, but the joking around, the chemistry, etc, couldn't have been more real than when you put S and I in the same room together.
It seems like our relationship was merely wrong timing, wrong circumstances. Sounds like the "one that got away" sometimes.
