    Say you are sorry, but accept it if it's not accepted.

    Same advice as with any relationship when you feel it needs to be better -- make it about the other person.
    (Course, I don't feel damn near dead inside, so I cannot truly consider that factor.)
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    This is a really good list so far! I'm glad I didn't scrap this idea.

    Your heart is true, you're a pal and a confidant.

    Milk, Dark or both?  White is not an option so don't even think about it.  No self respected connoisseur of chocolate considers white part of the club...

    Say "yes" when you can do something or be somewhere.
    Say "no" if you can't make it or are uninterested in doing something.
    Eliminate "maybe" and "we'll see".

    First figure out why you're near-dead inside?

    For true friendships, honesty and acceptance seem to work for me.  Being there, even just to listen, makes a difference.

    And while it goes both ways, never does quid pro quo come into play.

    White is not chocolate. It is wax. It is gross. 

    Dark chocolate, please. Milk is acceptable, but dark is most definitely preferred. :smiley:
