dreams of seven

last night while i was driving home from the berg an interesting thought struck me. i realized that often i have cared more for guys i've liked but haven't dated than the ones i actually did date. i know that i have rationalized some boyfriends from category 2 (idiots) and this often becomes clear post-break up. i miss these exboyfriends from time to time because of the emotional connection we formed, but i know deep down that the way i cared about them doesn't compare to the way i thought i could care for those others, and the potential i saw for what kind of a connection we could have had.

"well i dreamt i saw you walking up a hillside in the snow, casting shadows on the winter sky, while you stood there, counting crows. one for sorrow, two for joy, three for girls and four for boys, five for silver, six for gold, seven for a secret, never to be told..." adam duritz
