I would think all of them would, but maybe that's just my wishful thinking. And I know these people arent 'bad', but fact remains, they have walked away and left me alone. I vent a lot online, and make my situation known, but do NOT form 'serious' bonds to anyone anymore. Been hurt way too many times. It's not to say I don't adore you guys! Just saying, if and/or when you guys decide I am 'too much to take' and head for happier places, I won't feel the loss as deeply. Does that make sense without sounding like I'm a horrible person?
