This is starting to hurt.
I'm running out of energy.
I think I might give up despite what I know is best.
Why is this so hard to accept?
Maybe I should ask for a no-more-games rule. I mean a please-don't-make-me-fall-for-you-anymore rule. Really. This is only going to get harder, isn't it?
Oh dear.
I don't think that's too much to ask for. In fact, I do think whomever you speak of should be quite capable of the no-games-rule.
In fact, I adopt that as one of my rules now.
No more games. Unless it's Candyland.
