Love, by itself, doesn't heal maybe?
I think that's ever so common, Crushed. To be loved for who we are. To be looked at like Grandpa looked at Grandma. I don't think it's all that common, but it's what makes the story of Luke and Laura (before they screwed it up) so very powerful. Everyone wants to be loved like Luke loves Laura.
I'm married to a good man, who cares about me and will always take care of me, and who is a fine man of integrity, brilliant and responsible and funny. But he doesn't love me that way. He thinks I'm a foolish child he has to discipline and take care of. He thinks if he lets up on me, everything will go to heck.
I want to be looked at like Grandpa looked at Grandma.
I've got a chance with the dogs. Not any of the ones I have right now. But maybe someday.
