Whatever it is he is looking for, whatever it is that he needs, she knows he does not find in her. She may intrigue him. He may find that he can relate to her person, but she does not move him enough for him to open up. He observes her just like she observes him, and together they move tentatively around each other, looking for signs, sometimes fishing for them. But the vestige of a promising future has faded. What's left is a clarity that they can never be together.
Their needs are too much alike. He needs someone more uninhibited, more open, less calculated and calculating, more spontaneous, more innocent, purer. She needs someone who's willing to step up from the sidelines into the limelight. They both need risk-takers, and risk-takers they are not. And it's sad that they met at this stage of their lives when individually, both are still unsure of what thay want, who they are and who they can be.
