I'm half the piece...

Oh, I hear you. And I'm guilty, too. I'm just as free with the "I love you's" and the "Together Forver's."

If it doesn't last, at least it feels good to play act for the moment. I'm not a fool. When/if it ends, I'll have had a great ride. As long as I don't put myself on the line financially or otherwise, I really don't see the harm.

And let's just say this fantasy has one foot in reality and it develops into something legitimate??? I guess I just hit the jackpot.

I guess love is like going to Las Vagas. You can have fun for as long as possible and if you are sensible and lucky, it may turn out to be a profitable long run. But I'm not going to bet it all away and be left with nothing but the hotel robe! : )
