Wonderful Example of Love Gone Wrong

I followed a Facebook link to the blog "Slightly Disheveled" and found some terrific writing, including a wonderful parable about puzzles and mistaken love.  It does a fine job illustrating two important concepts.  The first is one that is so important in Interpersonal Communication:  ambiguous language and misunderstanding.  The second is vital to my love education courses:  the unfortunate fact that people "in love" project their expectations  onto the love object, thus being unable to see the love object with clarity.
