I want to give up on romance.
I think I'd be happier if I didn't care.

Many folks will tell you that as soon as they gave up on romance, and focused their attention elsewhere, that's when "love" sneaked up on 'em from behind. It's true too. It's like when you're writing code, and something isn't working. You spend hours and hours trying to figure it out. Finally, you have to stop to do something else ... then BAM ... the answer pops into your head on it's own.

However, giving up with the intention of being sneaked up on from behind isn't really giving up, so ... ::shrugs::

I second the notion, in direct spite of my heart, which says, "Oh, but think of all the joy that romance brings! Surely you don't want to give up on that!"

But if feeling that joy once a month means feeling so much pain in the intervals between meetings, then I'm not sure it's worth it.

I third the notion, and also send hugs. It'll get better!
