Darn you Monkeyman! I was so shocked I nearly choked on my noodles.


> I think what I have been seeking was a very good, close, female FRIEND. There is a big difference between that and a girlfriend; I'm sure most people here will understand what that difference is. What I have come to realize, though, is that all the things that I want from a girlfriend are things that I could just as easily get from a friend. All the extra stuff that dating adds to friendship has always been troublesome for me.

I realized some time ago that I screw up relationships a lot. So then I decided that I would look for a friend. And I found Melissa.
