Yeah.

And what about the guy, like, you know, the guy in his 20s who got his heart really badly broken, like, at 19 or 20 and then doesn't date until 30?

You know, like, it does seem like there are some people... That's true.

...who really, like, nurse it.

You know, and...

a particular kind of complete openness that you just don't get again.

No.

Because you're just, you have just at least a little sheen, a percentage of you with one little foot outside or some perspective.

Well, the very first one was The Thorn Birds by Colleen McCullough.

I was 15.

My mother had just remarried.

I finally got the canopy bed that I always wanted, that she had, but then when she remarried, it was too small.

And I have such vivid memories of lying in that bed for like an entire weekend, just devouring the thorn birds.

I loved that book.

I thought it was the sexiest, sexiest book.

And now when I think of it, it is about a priest who falls in love with a four-year-old child.

I mean, they don't do anything until she's about 17 or 18.

But I thought, you know, it was just so beautiful, that sense of destiny.

And, of course, they're star-crossed lovers.
