How Many Shades of Green - for Marge's challenge How many nervous phone calls do I have to coach you through? Then listen to the details of everything she said to you. How many lovely ladies paraded for approval only to find out that she's adept at heart removal? How many 'fatal' heart breaks do I have to nurse you through till you get it in your head it's not going to kill you? And how many shades of green do you want me to become before you realise the fact, for you, I am the only one? Summon the courage to step out of your familiar rut and suddenly many of those things which held you back will no longer have the power to do so. |

Andrea... I know what you mean!! I've been through this once myself. They treat you like their sister or best mate, and it takes absolutely FOREVER for them to finally realise that they do actually like you!! Wonderful write.
