The Olympic Torch of Love

[botias]

I just made the mistake of reading some rather purple fanfic prose to my hunny. Now he's making me LOL by surprising me with sweet nothings like: "My pits are aflame for you!" Who says romance is dead?

Speaking of aflame pits and dead romances, am I the only one who didn't quite get the 'flaming hands' thing? How is catching on fire romantic? Of course, as a Spuffy, I found that whole scene pretty :P anyway. Denied all the way to the end.

In my experience there's only so far you can resist before your (prospective) partner takes you seriously and stops trying. It's usually not a situation where the partner still wants to invest any more hopes in the relationship.

I think I've see it happen to friends. Occasionally someone will relent and say "oh, maybe you're worth a try after all." It never works.

I can totally get that. I think I stopped having an interest in canon Spuffy in that way. No doubt ME would only breathe a great sigh of relief if that were overwhelmingly the case.
