You are beauty incarnate, and I am shackled by another’s devotion. You’re who I’m looking for. I’ve been working to escape my current situation, and it’s been a delicate process, but once my freedom is assured can we run away together?
I think we’ll mix and meld, compliment and copulate, laugh and love, wonderfully together.
I’ll be the Pumbaa to your Timon. —Pride Rock

Good luck to you both…Please be gentle with the person you are leaving.A heart break can damage a person for life and love.
It sucks when someone you thought you loved and who you thought had true feelings for you – can’t be honest enough and grown up enough just to get their feelings out in the open… Instead someone suffers so that the other can have a”delicate escape”… Classy
True story Dartmouthy, but I didn’t read this love that way. It kinda sounds like the OL was trying to let the person down easily. If you don’t share feelings with someone it’s best to change the situation or risk causing unnecessary hurt, right? Maybe this ‘delicate process’ was the slow revelation of someones true feelings.
Nice! And just as possible, hopefully more so – one’s personal influences do color everything, don’t they? …Well if you let them I guess 🙂
Dartmouthy I agree.I allow myself to go down that road often,unfortunatly for me I it leads me to a lot of heartache.I’m a romantic thats never been romanced.
Boru, there’s a lot of us ‘hopeless’ romantics out there. Although I don’t necessarily feel exactly hopeless myself. I’m certain there will be a good dose of love in your future, and it’ll be that much sweeter because you’ve been waiting!
Just a side note: I hate, hate, HATE people telling me to be positive, or that the right person is out there, or all that other cliche’ garbage… but ya know what? They’re right
It helps to think that even if there’s a .000 000 001% chance that’s true, there are still 7 people willing to put up with you out there.
It’s like “ultimate where’s waldo”… but still.
Being socially awkward makes it hard to meet people.
…without them running for the hills screaming bloody murder
zZz Did I do something to offend you Zed? I hope I didn’t….That’s another downside of being socially fucked up,I never know what to say or do even when I like someone.I always endup with my foot in my mouth and hobbling away while someones’ feelings are left hurt in my wake.
I was just finishing your thought.
And you make it sound like you’re Mitt Romney or something…
you’ve a little better filter than that.
Give yourself some credit…
zZz That’s my problem I don’t use my filter when I should,I do and say things or don’t do or say things I should but I end up regreting my mistakes in the end.Thats why I’m alone.
I guess in a way I am feeling sorry for myself but I’m just being honest or at least, the way my life looks from my vantage point.
But thanks,I never give myself credit if or when I deserve it.
Your a very kind soul.I knew that when I met you.
