    That was 100% sweet and yes, it was sad. How foolish we can be by not just saying what's in our hearts at the moment because sometimes you don't get a second chance.

    The last time I walked across the street with the 100% perfect man for me I didn't know what to say, and he said nothing, and I moved away across the country. He was someone that earlier he would cross one side of the street, and I would cross the other, and during a red light we would just stop in the middle and talk. I was thinking of him this morning, how he was the perfect man for me . . . timely story for me to read this morning. I need to listen to the blues now.

    That was very interesting to read. It is sad but I believe if it was meant to be, it will happen (eventually). So maybe, he will get another chance.

    I believe in the story the message sends. Fate sent the person to you, but you HAVE to make some kind of move. If nobody does you will not just END up together. You will miss the opportunity. I'm in that situation now, only more complicated. I cant just say how I feel and if I do, it may cause more harm than good. Tragic and sad.... I know its meant to be, and yes I have said that to him, but I havent gone into how deeply I love him. We felt a connection immediately and I was happy just to have him as a friend. I felt commited to him even though we arent a couple, because my heart IS with him. I cant be with someone else when I am in love completely with another.

    The truth is, everyone thinks that their own sad love story is the saddest story ever. And, everyone has them.

    I think people get more than one chance at love.
