I don't always say the things I need to say. Dan is a huge part of my life, but it feels weird telling my friends how much I love him. Part of that stems from the fact that our relationship has been an emotional rollercoaster and many of you think I should give up. I don't. I've never felt about anyone the way I do for him.

Your monk story made me laugh, by the way.

Hahaha - yeah...few of the monks we lived with were ACTUALLY vegetarian. Oh yes, they'd eat vegetarian in the temple (except for when they made these potato patties with beef broth, or when the curry was made from beef stock, or...) but as soon as they get out it's meat and sake! I actually saw one load up a plate at a seafood restaurant on the coast of the Japan sea with sausages. Yup. Sorry to burst that bubble! Good luck though, maybe they're good monks. ;)

(BTW, your Japanese help has totally helped me identify some characters!)

For what it's worth, my reaction was more of concern for your safety. That point seems to have passed. I'm glad I was wrong, and I hope for you both to be happy. :)

Thanks everyone for supporting me on this. I know it means a lot to me (and to Dan).

No prob. Always been on the lookout for you. Just want you happy & safe. I think I remember it being said that a friend will disagree with you, be there for you if you fall, and applaud when you succeed. But that's just me getting all sentimental and stuff.
