I'd rather have the boom lowered on me immediately rather after getting emotionally committed. There is very little more depressing than having the line "You know we're just good friends" (which usually means nothing of the sort) laid on you when you had thought that something more was going on. I lost a friend recently because of this sort of mahooha which needn't have happened if it had been made clear to me much earlier in the relationship that it was going to go THIS far and no farther. We wouldn't need telepathy if we communicated a little better. That's what word's are for. :-( dann
