If you are now realizing that Mr. Responsible is a good catch, then you're on the road to recovery from "if he's not 100% perfect, then he's not for me." I want you to be with somebody wonderful, but perfection is unachievable for us lowly humans. Oh, my dear Stolie.

About the whole, "more interesting now he has a girl of his own". Yeah, I know, this is like the way that it always goes. But, it's kind of like getting into a car accident. Logically, I know that these things happen. But, still, I was really suprised the first time that I got into an accident. Does that make sense? You know, it's like you *know* why something is happening, but you're still surprised by it. By the way, LOVE the way you spelled out the two rules. <b>GrizzBabe</b>: Yeah, I'm convinced that the answer to that is one of the great secrets of the earth. Darwin: Ah, it’s horrible isn’t it? :)

But I'm kinda surprised to see a dating-experienced girl like you be surprised that you find Mr. Responsible more interesting now he has a girl of his own. I mean, the fancy-the-wrong-guy is like rule number 2, right after "You'll fall in love when you least expect it". Rule number 2 comes in different versions, though: - a guy in a relationship is always more interesting than a single one. - a bad guy is always more interesting than a good one. - a troublesome guy is always more interesting than a happy-go-lucky one. That doesn't make it less frustrating, of course! I've known a few Mr. responsibles, too. One of them is getting married in a couple of months, and even though he is the the right for me, I can't help wondering: How would it be to be her right now? Hi FBC

The more unavailable a guy is, the more attractive I find him. I get bored with guys who chase after me too much, so once they move on and are with someone else, I start thinking "hey he's pretty cute, why didn't I see that before?".
