    Well, applied to my ex-girlfriends, I can tell you I tend to forget the bad and remember the good, so when I feel lonesome it's relatively easy to get into a mood where I'm saying, how did I ever let that one get away -- conveniently forgetting all the junk that went on. I wouldn't worry too much about the ones that get away. There's always something around the next bend.

    There was a song by Crystal Gayle, years ago-- Never see a real good thing, or know what it means Never miss the light of day, till it goes away Never want a drink of water, till the well runs dry Never missed a real good thing, till you said goodbye

    I have a similar problem Offerer, I always think "Man she looked good neaked", but then the second thought is "Man am I glad I don't have to listen to that cr@p any more"

    To me it means that I never knew how BAD I had it 'till now.
    I, too, tend to remember only the good parts, but when I sit down and look back objectively, and I'm no saint either, I am really amazed about how much cr*p I took. Don't waste time looking back- you've already been there, instead look foreward--can I get change for a nickel? -Ralph

    Nothing very, very good or very, very bad lasts for very, very long.

    Makes me think about youth, the visions, hopes, dreams, vitality, health, that I had then. There were places to go, things to do, people to meet. I always thought there would be enough time LATER. Well now LATER has come up and bit me in the *. "Youth" is what I never knew I had until I lost it. There are still things to do, I just don't do them with the same outlook.

    If I knew then, what I know now.
