Hints

One of the most puzzling and often annoying aspects of the general problem of human communication is when you are trying to tell someone something and they simply don't want to hear it. The converse is also rather annoying, you are not wanting to tell someone something but they are convinced you are. There is much to be said for plain language, i.e. bugger off, rude message following, or no, I don't want to listen to that sound track and if you play it again I may be physically ill. Which is all the more reason to enjoy, celebrate and be thankful to whatever deities float above (or below) for a partner who is as good at reading you as you hope you are at reading her. And no DBR, it's not THAT kind of relationship where one finishes the other's sentence but more of a kind of a sometimes spooky awareness of the other's mood, well being, happiness, angst or whatever. It's like surfing. You don't think, you just feel it and do it. Like many of the good, silky things in life. It's not a head thing, it is something that lies beyond the grasp of stuttering Western Science. It just is. And, as she is fond of reminding me, if it feels good do it. It does feel good.
