> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Medea’s Child \* > **mrblue92** (his sweet self) You know you don’t even have to ask. Even though I’m repeating myself, and this is probably too public for something this honest, I’m going to say it anyway. Kathryn, I love you. And not in the sense that one “loves” his car or “loves” sunsets. I mean that if I were given a choice right now to have everything on the planet in exchange for knowing you, I’d choose you. No hyperbole–I’m dead serious. Power, money, women, whatever; it wouldn’t matter. I love you even to the point that if by giving my life I could save yours, I would not hestitate and would die happy. Yes, I know it might seem crazy. That doesn’t concern me. Nor does it matter that you can’t fully return the feeling. My delight in you knows no bounds, no walls, no shackles, but radiates as far and wide as light from the brightest star. No distance can ever really separate me from you, as the look in your eyes the day we met is a piece of you that I will carry with me forever, and I will always look back on that moment with an adoration that would shame the full moon’s adoration for the sun. I did not think it possible to feel like this about anyone. At times, I wish that I did not love you so much, as I know how difficult your position is, and it would probably be easier for us both if I didn’t. Or if I could keep myself from writing things like this. The simple fact is, I can’t. And so my heart will continue beating for you with constancy that only death will curtail. Be my Valentine, too… Steve ---

Lets an arrow fly at **LaurAnge** , but from short range, and really softly so she can get in the way of it in time. ---

[wyldelf\*\* - an ego slut? You may have something there and I intend to do something about it. Check out the “For wyldelf” thread and let’s see how many people I can piss off now… **Nymysys** , sweetie, are you mad at me? Didn’t you notice I listed you as a Valentine? You acted mad about that. I would also like you to check out what I’m about to post in the thread I started for wyldelf. And if you want a cheesy poem and your own thread too, just let me know. OK? ---

Well. You boys have been busy. Time for me to reciprocate. :rolling up sleeves: **Froggy,** I’m not sure HOW I feel about you right now, but we’ll go to the wyldelf thread after this and hash it out. Regardless, you’re a sweetie and of COURSE I’ll be your valentine! ::an arrow, on it’s way:: **Bad Hat,** although no one but me seems to know who you are, I think that you’re making the grade, buddy. One arrow for you now, a beer later. ::thunk!:: **Mikey,** your arrows keep missing, but the intent is sweet. Hey, I _married_ you, didn’t I? And we ALL know how I feel about marriage! ::'nother arrow:: **Morphy,** uh…you’re creeping me out with the plunging arrow, buddy. Nice intent, though. You know I dig you. 😃 ::big arrow. friendly fire, though. no bad intent. no CHEST-PLUNGING ferchrissakes!:: **Andy** …\ Andy. This one-sided thing is killing me. Can you come back? Please? My fingers hurt from the text messaging. 😃 ::super-duper extra-large arrow:: And one more that’s MIA so far… **dpr.** DUH! The one that makes all the places very, very Pretty. Our humble SDMB President, and the guy that always makes me smile. Always. ::upside down arrow in a bikini for the Ozzie:: Also, can’t forget **wyldelf, Scotti, Robyn, andygirl (who I think I have a crush on) and all my #SD wimmins.** Without you, I’d be left with all these men to myself. ::thousands of little, cute, girly arrows:: Hey, waitaminute… ---

Hands down, it’s got to be **Fenris** because he makes me laugh. Not just one little chuckle that comes from a one-liner quip. Between the “Iron Chef Battle” and the Mod thread going on in ATMB, I’ve had to wipe many a laugh-tear from my eyes.
