Oh, Rupin, little did you know, you just created a lovely coincidence right here: a day or two before you commented, I was remembering how a friend told me aaaaages ago that “Killing Me Softly” seemed to summarize my feelings for and encounter with this man. And it was true. And now here you are, days later, echoing that same memory right back to me. Thank you. This made me smile. :)

I’m glad you feel this love in your life as a blessing. I hope that, when romantic love does happen for you in the form of a relationship, the relationship is all that you’ve ever dreamed of and better. I like to imagine that when life shows us something so beautiful, it’s actually a sneak preview of the sort of love that life ultimately intends to bring us.

Thank you for sharing your own experiences and your beautiful words!
