If we're talking gender and essential truths about behavior here, then as one dude to another I honestly have to tell you that:

> For me, I still have her high school graduation picture in the UR corner of my computer screen -- I'm still in love with her. That was a failure. I believe that had I known what I wish I had known, I could have saved the relationship, likely had a really good marriage, etc. We would have done well with children:

This is pretty messed up.

Yes, but you don't know how pretty she was, and how sweet and feminine, etc. otherwise!!

Also, no one understands love, in particular, you don't. I'm not nearly the first man to stay in love for life!

> I'm not nearly the first man to stay in love for life!

Sure, but for most of those dude's it's with their partner.

Yeah, not the only warning flag in there, is it.

Yes, I salute all those who are perfect and apologize again for all my shortcomings!
