: : I can't think of anything as passionate and exciting as a 4x4 relationship! But it could never be more than a thrilling, romantic fling -- all that intensity would overwhelm ordinary, everyday life. You know how a bout of sobbing causes you to feel drained and exhausted? The crying feels so good ... so freeing while you are experiencing it, but later you just want to sleep...

: I can't accept this...that it could never be more than a fling. This would
: be totally disillusioning to me to accept that. Where is the deeper meaning?

: Tell me this isn't true!!!

: If a pair of 4s could not work this out, who could?


I think that for it to work out, at least one of the fours would occasionally need to exhibit a practical, sensible side. How would they ever decide who gets to indulge in emotions, and who needs to stay inhibited? With a non-four you get to enjoy free reign at all times, even if he doesn't understand. Hmmmm...now which is better?!
