A bittersweet feeling

[silverthorne]

To enjoy a love song, and then realize that neither it, nor any love song, will ever apply to you.

It would take too much changing of me to make it a possibility.

But at least I've felt it a few times. :)

Indigo drew it for me.

I'm just not sure that I have it within me anymore to open up, after the number of times I've been kicked when I tried. I'm also at the age where most of the women I know are either married or married to their careers.

I'm feeling very old lately. Old, tired, cold.

She does good on those. :)

I understand. Get kicked enough times, and that is what you'll expect. I won't say I was never there, because I was, and more than once. And I can't say that you'll ever not feel that way, because I'm not you. But if it's any comfort and worth any hope, if you're looking for it, I got past that, and so have others. And it's possible you may as well, for the 'right' person, somewhere down the line.

/hallmark moment...

Maybe we'll both be the ones who outlive wonderful people married to other wonderful people, and we'll end our lives happily with the surviving wonderful people... :)
