Carolyn Hax is awesome
Do you ever read her column? It is syndicated from The Washington Post – she is so smart. I sent her an email after reading her latest. It was a letter from a woman signed “starving for his attention” to which Carolyn responds:
“…when it dawns on you, is that people can be busy; people can be slow to date, slow to trust, slow to find you physically attractive; people can be confused, distracted, scarred, grieving–all of them openings for optimistic projection.
But when they enjoy somebody’s company, they seek it. Unless he’s transparently happy to see you, don’t weigh yourself down with hope.”
Well put.
