I think you can really get to know a person well thru this medium IF you
both really open up.  You can express true feelings and not be afraid of
a strange reaction.  They are on the other side of a computer screen.  To me,
its very much like a journal - that reacts and responds.

This is the other side of distress call. Hwy is a great guy with
lots of love to give, and lots of understanding. All he had asked me
for was the truth about what was going on. He deserved to hear that  
from me, not from anyone else. But, I was afraid to talk to him,  
because I knew  what I had to tell him would hurt him. 

My fears were driven away after I talked to him. Hwy is a wonderful  
guy; he made things very easy for me. I just wish that everyone could  
be so understanding. 

Hwy says in his post:

If you love someone, then set them free.  That's hard, but if you  
stop being selfish, it'll be easier.  (Thank you Cyndy!  I finally  
get to apply the lessons I learned.)

that's exactly what he did, and I'm thankful for it. 


I Love you, Hwy!!

Hey!  Another Boilermaker...*yippee*

Someone will probably mention it, but if you want to join the RFA you
need to submit a romantic story, preferably with a fireplace included
in the story.  There's no charge for joining ARC, tho...you've
unlurked, and that's all that's required...

A lovely sentiment.  I was intrigued to see the expressions
"warm fuzzies" and "cold pricklies".  Our high school used to
run a tour each year; I went on two of them.  At the start of
each tour, they would tell a story of a wicked witch who took
away all of the warm fuzzies and replaced them with cold
pricklies.  No-one understood what it was about, until at the
end they demonstrated a "warm fuzzy", which was a big hug.
Then everyone on the tour gave everyone else (of the opposite
gender) warm fuzzies for the rest of the tour.  It was a great
ice-breaker.
	Just brought back one of my old, cobweb-shrouded
memories, you see...

Sure, you can join the Sgt Pepper Brigade ... if you're positive this is 
where you belong ... the full name, of course, is the Sgt. Pepper's Broken 
Hearts Club Brigade, and it's for non-combatants ... but if you change your 
mind, and decide you want to participate in FoodFight II, that's cool too 
..

Even thought I'm not a member of the RFA yet (Hey!  Are you looking

Thanks for the story! *WarmHugs!*
