Well, with a response like that at least you know where you stand, eh?

Which, to be honest, even if it's hurtful in the short-term is a lot better than not knowing where you stand in someone else's eyes.

Even if a person is not sure, knowing that they're not sure is better than not knowing at all.

> "I want to be like you when I grow up" :D

Oh, you know how to make a man in autumn years smile :)

> I hope you find someone.

I hope so too. Because two people driven with the same spirit can achieve amazing things.
