what i'd need...

...to possibly make this work:

1) i'd need to know that you love me.
2) i'd need to know that you are not pining for someone else. yes, that someone else.
3) i'd need to know that we want the same things.
4) i'd need to know that you are committed to at least trying to make this work, even though i now you can't control all the factors...who can?
5) i'd need to know you found me again because you are ready. really ready. and that it will be different this time because now is the right time.

tall order. i think i'll keep my options open and try with all my might not to get my hopes up about this...again...
