R and I met at the start of our first year of uni, and have lived within ten metres of each other for the past three years. We are similar people who interact in interesting ways. We entertain each other, without requiring anything from each other. But I think we both know that if necessary, we would put out the effort for the other. As he said: "We have a special sort of relationship, don't we?" But in all seriousness, every relationship is special. Every one is unique. Each is worth saving for something, and every so often I mourn the day that will take him out of my life.

But in the meantime, I go over the emails he sent me last year and I find this link from the height of our Internet Bizarrity competition. When I went the first time, this page had a white background and blue-ish highlights. Now it looks almost satanic. But still, the old ones are the best. Thanks R.
