Getting used to it...

So I remember a conversation with my next door neighbor about how she didn't get attached to her daughters' beaus because they didn't necessarily stay around long enough, and the one she did get attached to-well that break up was as hard on her as on the daughter.  And the conversation just recently came flooding back to me, because the new "interest" whom I had just barely met, apparently is suddenly much less interesting.  And I'm left thinking "But he's so polite.  He came right up to me and asked me how I was and how my weekend was going.  Are you SURE you're not interested anymore???"
