Well, what do you say about the love of your life...?
Yes, you're right, there really isn't anything that you can say... So you do what everyone else does... Hide away and pretend that love doesn't exist...
OK so perhaps that's a bit OTT, John has been a great friend, then a great boyfriend, then a great fiance, then things seemed to stop working and now he's trying really hard to be a good friend again. (Even though he was still wearing the ring I bought him for almost year after we broke up! - What's that about?) The only thing is, it's never ever going to be as good a friendship as we should be able to have.
John is currently seeing a 16 yr old, Claire, who he met at the local secondary school where he worked as a caretaker. From what I can gather she seems really nice and I wouldn't mind getting to know her better!
