Juonithz If she didn't love Tony, then she made the wrong decision; because now they're not going to be as happy as they would have been if she never left for Ireland.

Lee Collins That's true - according to the book, she admitted to herself that she didn't love Tony but he was very good to her and offered her security and safety. I don't believe in settling for someone unless you love them but according
to some girls I know who are friends, they say some girls will settle for a good man who is good to them rather than wait for the "perfect" man to come along.

Lizp Lee, there are no “correct” approaches to relationships or to anything in life; there’s no formula ! People act as they do governed by character, upbringing, the culture they’ve been exposed to, etc.

Louise You fear coming across as gay? Let's hope you've become less homophobic in the last 7 years since you wrote that. I read no further than your first sentence.
