You know Len, you may very well be right! But it seems to me there is true love out there for some people who are lucky enough to experience it. And that what keeps sending the rest of us up the aisle, even if it isn't mad passionate romance(or close!)

Re the six-month itch. Well, of course, it surfaces! We are physical creatures who appreciate and want what is attractive. As we say in NYC, "This and a token get you on a subway." Anyone who thinks the following is crazy: 1. "Love means never having to say you're sorry" a la "Love Story" is a hopeless ass. Love means going to the extreme of occasionally apologizing for what is not one's fault because the "significant other" is so deeply wounded by externals that is not to the point to be right. 2. If there is true love, there will never be a compelling attraction to someone else. Cut me a break! And note well, len, my friend, this is a woman talking. Attraction is not the issue. I'm going out on a limb here, but even what one does about it is not necessarily the issue. When love happens, two souls bond. These souls may be totally unsuited to living together, which is what all the love songs miss entirely. There may be barriers that are emotionally or morally insurmountable. What I am trying to say here is that people seem to expect too much and too little of love at the same time. len, looking foward to your response....
