He's in Love!

He’s in Love!

Sue McLeod

The signs are obvious, if you know what to look for.

An unrelenting drive to learn everything about her.

Constant worry that he won’t be able to take care of her in the way she deserves.

Pining loneliness when she is out of reach.

Fantasizing about where they will go and what they will do when they are reunited.

Buying extravagant gifts and adornments that show his affection and make her even more attractive.

Other signs aren’t so subtle, like when he turns to me with that dreamy look on his face and says

“I love my new boat!”

On this darkest day of winter, we dream of our new (to us) Albin 28, shrink-wrapped in the boat yard, waiting for our first summer season together.
