All I can say is that love is *not* enough.
I think we've been raised with too much romance.
If we could learn to watch the feelings of love for someone who is not likely to make a good partner like we would watch leaves on a stream, enjoying them without feeling like we need to act on them, a lot of the pain in this world could be lessened.
I know that's more easily said than done.
But if she should have a change of heart, remember how it feels right now and ask yourself if that's what you want from life.
Some people thrive on the highs and lows of a volatile relationship. Kids rarely do. It's something that might be worth exploring in therapy.
Welcome to Babble. Feel free to sit down and join us. There's a board devoted to Relationships, but sadly there isn't a whole lot of activity there. You still might want to look it over. Just follow the links at the top or bottom of this page.
