Certainly its possible, but not likely.  I've had this 
experience several times.  I would talk on the phone, and
get heated.  We would have conversation such as those you
described.  Then when we meet, we would engage in the
activities we talked about on the phone, and afterward,
we returned to our previous lives.  It was almost like
the excitement of "doing it" with someone you had never 
met exceeded the excitement of knowing the person as 
a real "live" person.  Also, since you never met the
person, if you haven't seen a picture of them, then 
you may be disappointed.  But this is life, and you 
learn by experience.  Of course, I hope you have a good
time this weekend.  Bring your protection though!

Dave,

	I wish that I could give you the reassurance that you are looking for, 
and tell you that soon you will "get over her", but realisticly speaking, I
don't think that you will -at least not soon.
About 3 months ago I broke off an almost 3 year relationship, and although I had
seen it coming for months before it happened, I was not prepared for the pain
then, or now.  We still talk over the phone, but when I told him that I had
started dating someone else, he lost it! I offered him my friendship, and seeingas that was all that I could give, he accepted it, under the condition that he
not have to see me face to face -he does not want to confront the pain of seeing
me, and knowing that it is no longer his place to hold me.  The thought of never
see the man, that I once thought I would spend the rest of my life with, ever
again almost broke me.  But I am now begining a new, and beautiful relationship,although the thought of him still lingers in the back of my mind, and probably 
always will, I know that (*pardon the cliche*) life will go on -maybe even
better than it ever had before (*no matter how impossible that seems*).  
	My suggestion is to not TRY to get over her. Let the memories linger,
but don't dwell on  them. When you hear a special song, think about her, and 
all of the good times that you had together, but when the song is over, let it
go, and go on with life without her. -Believe in yourself, and that there is 
someone special out there waiting for you.

	Best of luck in these difficult times,

I feel exactly as you do.  For starters, I express myself much, much better in
writing than I do while speaking.  However, I have been roundly criticized for
it by friends, who say that relationships are built by talking, talking,
talking.  And more talking.

So, I'm curious what the consensus is.

Date: Fri, 06 Nov 1992 17:11:56 GMT
Keywords: Does ANYBODY *really* know?...



Everything I've seen written aboute "What is Love?" describes
actions associate with love, but not what love is.  Not having
WEbster or Oxford next to me, I cannot quote what they
claim it is, so......

It seems to me that everyone is attaching certain actions to describe
love, but are really not defining love.  I suspect that this is
correct, to describe the actions associated with love.  Try to
define infinity.....it goes on and on and on, because for any
given number I can add another one to it.....What about the
repeating decimal places of Pi, (NExp reference), it continues to
go on and on and on......

You see I think that Love is the same, it does not have an
absolute definition.  It is defined by actions, emotions, sight
sound, spirit of the people involved.  And this varies according
to those involved. 

If you fall in love with someone, and then fall out of love with
someone, does it mean that it really wasn't "true" love?  I think
that it really was love, and that the actions that described the
love of that relationship changed, the people changed or what was
needed to describe love changed.  It doesn't mean it wasn't love
before, you can't change what you once felt, but you also can't
stop yourself from growing either.

BTW - this also means that you can fall in love again, that it can
be as intense as any previous "loves" you may have had, or more so, or
even less so.  It does not guarantee that you will fall in love again,
but rather that you can fall in love again...

Just some thoughts, albeit kind of serious one considering they
are coming from me.  If you choose, mull them around in your head
for a while and see what then may come to as to what you believe 
love is.  WHat ever you decide will be right for you, for now or
maybe forever....

Later,

BDC

Now, here comes another question in front of the fireplace... 
Come on, people, bare your souls (and dust your memories, if need
be :-)) and tell us: 

What is the most romantic compliment you have ever received? 


And let's keep it clean, people - this IS a family net, after all
(wouldn't believe that sometimes, looking at the Salters going at
it... :-)). I myself cherish some words that are unprintable under
that definition... but I think I remember best the one time when 
my fiance told me how he had described me to two of my best friends, 
when I happened to be absent:

"It's just that after Kristiina, everyone else would be like Diet
Coke: stale, not the Real Stuff..." 

(I guess it shows he drinks Regular Coke... :-))


*HUGS* to you all, and thanks for all the support and sympathy and

I have included the following article which was distributed through out
the entire MATH BUILDING as evidence that this world is really stupid!

-------------------------------------------------------------

REFERENDUM UPDATE!

In the past week, Canadians voted overwhelmingly against concessions to the
CSC, thus again denying them status as members of the human race. It seems
people with actual lives and personalities were reluctant to be associated
with the CSC in any way. CSC members will still be classified as the sub-
species known as geeks. An unidentified member, we'll call him Mark
Thompsett, had this to say:

	"The CSC also voted down the amendments. There was a large
	 faction very vocal against venturing out into the sun as
	 well as smaller groups opposed to relating with the real
	 world, and learning basic hygiene skills."

When asked which faction he had supported, Mr. Thompsett evasively responded,
"I support them all! I just want people to like me." It is yet unknown if his
political manoevuers have paid off.

[eds. We in no way support Mr. Thompsett or the CSC, we just take their
 advertisement money.]

Now, for all you people out there, be glad you all can be happy and not
get PUBLICLY INSULTED like this! I knew today (Monday) was going to be
a bad day!
