You know when you're in love with someone and you need them and they're not your boyfriend?  And you just know that if you say the right thing you can sway them?  And you come up with all these elaborate reasons you need them?  And you try everything until the only cards you've got left are basically the cards you should have played in the first place, because they are the cards that simply spell 'I love you'?  Yeah, you know.
