Two things:

2- I'm actually SICK of worrying about RL romance since I'm rather down in that area and I'd rather not go back and drudge up bad memories on a problem I am trying to feel less crappy about.

This is just a generalization/point of view observation thing I've noticed recently and was curious of others opinions on it.
