Hello ladies. I finally got a moment to myself so now I can say how good I thought Spiro's latest chatper is --the story just gets better and better. You have got their characters so right, and it's yummy to see the trust building between them. I know John isn't the type to spoil it and pounce too soon. The dialogue, the emotions, are all so real.
Funny how a strong sensitive type like this is the subject of so many women's fantasies. What luxury to have someone take the trouble to consider your feelings like that. Maybe it's because in so many relationships it's mostly the women that does all the emotional spade-work.
Men aren't even expected to be good at it. Which brings me back to one of the things that really puzzles me and I was puzzling about it again last night when we were listing our favourite love songs- how so much of the literature of love is written by men - poems, plays, songs, novels, etc.
So why are they such rubbish at this sensitivity in RL? Or is it just that they can't be arsed? I shall never understand it.
I really have to re-watch Sparkhouse so I can revel visually in sweet sensitive John again, while I look forward to further chapters from Spiro.
