2dogs, you changed your avatar to a much more aggressive depiction. Perhaps, deep down, you have repressed anger and resentment. This is most probably due to your desire for fulfillment that won't be satisfied because you sit on the fence regarding your attendance at Homecoming 08. You have admitted to yourself that once this passes you will be overcome with "I should have gone" and "I'll never have an opportunity like that again, ever!" thoughts. Like the forum boss, you know you could do this but are afraid. Your fears are unfounded and false. Don't be like sp3ctre and be immersed in guilt for the rest of your life. You look in the mirror everyday. You know what the right thing to do is.
Best regards,
Greg
