"The Way We Were"
I rented it, from Netflix, for some reason I wasn't quite sure of... Now that I have watched it, I know why.
I forgot the way the story went...
She loves Hubbell more than anything, and he her, but they just can't make it work... She settles, and marries a very nice man, David X. Cohen, and has a very nice life. Sort of like it would be with me giving up Hawk all together and marrying Jeff... but that longing is still there... for her, as it would be for me.
Maybe I am better off if no one gets a divorce, and I stay hovering between the two... but no, I am not happy that way either. I think maybe happiness is for some people, but not all of us... some of us settle for what we can get...

Don't you just hate those words? I know that feeling exactly. Leaves a bittersweet sense of longing and self denial that hurts and yet still gives us something to hold onto. It's hard to put into words.
Thank you for the link :) I read quite a bit of your blog yesterday trying to get up to speed!
Yes, I do hate that feeling!!
Like I told that anonymous commenter the other day... mine is probably the most confused blog online...lol... but it's honest...
