January 18, 2005

She said to me "even when you smile I can see how sad you are"

Yes, well, the wisdom of little children and all that.

So if someone says he loves you, but he doesn't give you anything you want or need--well, let me rephrase that:

If someone says he loves you, but he gives you only enough of what you want and need to keep you wanting more, does he really love you?

When what he says and what he does are not the same thing, how can you tell what's real?

"You know how I feel about you." Do I? I know how you say you feel about me. "You know how I feel about you." Do I? Or am I supposed to just assume "how I feel" means "love"?

"It's going to be a while before she accepts our relationship, but I know she will." I know she will. I know. She will.

I'm not stupid enough, not any longer anyway, to think you don't say I Love You to The Other One just as much as you say it to me. In fact I kind of wish you'd just stop saying it to me because I'm not enough of an optimist to think you mean it when you say it to us both. In fact it offends me, if you want to know, to be just another member of your fan club.

But the thing is, I think that really the club's only big enough for one, and it's not me. But it's not The Other One either. It's just you.
