Everything about that person seems comfortable and familiar- the way they stand, the way they're dressed, the way they act and move. The person strangely fits no preconception you've ever had about someone you'd wanted to meet. Despite the feeling of familiarity, you're in entirely unfamiliar waters.
And then you notice the wedding-ring, and the small child, unnoticed before, clutching their skirt or pant-leg, and you realise that it can never be, yet you wonder if that person felt the way you did, if only for an instant.
Anything like this ever happen to you?
