- yeah, it doesn't. mixing friendship + love can be nasty. but it can
- also one of the best things in the world (IMHO). so -- if only one
- friend in a hundred is safe for a "luuuv reaction" (why does that
- sound like a B-52s song?) the solution is to make a -lot- of friends.
-
- at the very worst you'll end up with lots of friends. at the very best
- you'll have lots of friends and one VERY special one. i was fully
- prepared & happy to live with the worst, which isn't bad at all. i was
- less prepared to find that VERY special friend, but now that it's
- happened i'm adjusting quite nicely, thanks. :^)
