"I see you do not -- not in that sense." "Right." "But you care very much and respect her and like her and enjoy her companionship and sex with her." "Very much." "But she knows there is always this girlfriend of many years -- " "Annie." " -- and she is afraid to become too close with you, yet she wants to be close."

"Maybe you should let her take care of herself in some things. |
