I would rather be suffering post show depression than no show depression which is what I am suffering from!!

That's a good point. I am thankful they came to my area and also thankful for the internet and the webmasters!

But it will probably not be as intimate of a setting as Jacksonville. I hope for their sake that I can never get as much time with them as I did at that show. But, the thing about this adoration is that it is so totally different from a crush on a person in "real life". I mean, there is no chance of ever really satisfying the attraction and so we can't have Marty like we could another man. But, we also get so much more of Marty that we could most men. I mean, we can look at him and listen to him and hear his deep emotions through music. And I guess the good part is that we can't hook up and then ever fall out of love. It is an unrequited love that can last forever.[/quote]>>

I love this description of it. That is so true. We feel the love but don't have to deal with it like in real life situations where you can fall out of love. Thankyou for making that analogy. I mean when it really comes down to it I don't really want anything real with him it's just the fantasy of it all and we can keep that alive for a long time.

OK maybe I do really want something real but obviously it's not reality. ;D It's fun to live in the fantasy.

Yeh, sometimes having something real with Marty feels about as necessary as water and air...
