Hello All,

I was hoping I could ask you to humour me a bit here.

If any of you have been reading my threads, you will know that I believe in that "sixth sense". I believe we all have one, even if it operates differently for each person.

I recieved a text from Skippy - just a one liner joke. This is within two weeks of the last text. I was surprised to see the text but strangely did not have any emotional reaction to it. I may be on his mind because my BD is this month.

I can't explain it, but I feel a phone call coming on.

Which got me thinking.

I will never be a diplomat or a politician. I like the truth and I tend to tell it like it is. I am working on being a little less blunt.

Not that I think this is going to happen, but I was wondering how any of you handled the "I miss yous" or "I love yous" at a point where you were not sure you still loved or missed the person telling you that. I would not want to be unkind, but would not lie, either.

Again, I am not at all expecting that conversation, but in trying to improve those communication skills, it occurred to me that I would have no idea how to respond. A thousand years ago (maybe slightly less) when that did happen, I remember not saying anything at all.

I would be interested to hear how others handled it or would handle it.
