"I didn't like his plan first of all.I do not trust Humans.Secondly,I think meeting some woman you have never met and to see if she could be your wife is strange.You see Antarian couples bond and that bond is only broken if one partner betrays the other either mentally,physically or emotionally.It's not something to be taken lightly."
Interesting! I didn't konw that. I have to ask more about that bond.
"You make it sound like we humans change our partners like clothes." I comment with raised eyebrows. "I admit, things have gotten more ... lax in the last few centuries and we aren't promised by our parents to each other anymore for all of time but ... I can understand what you mean. At least partly.
What about this bonding? Is it like a ceremony or does it hurt when the bond is broken? Is Liz even aware of that bonding stuff or will she be roped into it?"

"You make it sound like we humans change our partners like clothes." I shrug carelessly and look at him with one eyebrow raised, "You're not that far off from the truth."

I wonder briefly if he's always had this unquenchable thirst to learn about new things but then push that to the back of my mind.He's a scientist,so of course he likes to learn about new things.How silly of me!
"It's like a ritual where only the two people concerned are involved and it only happens once they consummate the relationship.It doesn't hurt.It's beautiful!"

Guess that means she is already bonded. Of course she is, she had children after all so I guess that means bonding was involved too. I'm curious about the children's father, or fathers, but I can tell that we are far from knowing each other well enough for her to tell me. It's not even my business anyway so I have no right to be curious about that.
Part of me wonders how cheating can even happen if this bond's so beautiful but I refrain from asking, something else is interesting me a bit more right now.
"You seem to have a pretty low opinion on humans' relationships," or humans in general, a voice whispers in my head, "that makes me wonder how you know that much about it - did you study us or soemthing?" I ask with a teasing grin.

I contemplate Max's words about Sean, really thinking about our relationship for the first time. "Sean and I met through his cousin, my best friend, Maria. He wasn't my type at all really. He has a short criminal history and doesn't mind bending the rules. He likes to live life by the seat of his pants. I admit that I was attracted to that. I've always been one to play by the rules and I'm so organized that Maria, along with my other friends, always tease me about it. Honestly, though, Sean is a nice guy but I don't see us making it long term you know. Opposites attract but there's no sticking power."
I meet his eyes and admit, "I was willing to go along with being with Sean until I met Mr. Right." Giving him a wry smile, I add, "See, I'm far from perfect. I just don't want to be alone."

I give her a small smile before saying, "No Liz...that makes you human." I smile at her gently before adding, "Besides, its nice you have someone to have and hold I mean... I think anyone would want that even if they knew it wasn't the be all and end all. It's nice to feel that someone cares."
I just can't help but wish she thought I was Mr. Right. Because I happen to think she's fantastic.

I feel my heart drop a bit when he doesn't say anything to try to convince me that he is my Mr. Right. I know I just met this man, alien, whatever, but my heart tells me this is right, that us being together would be right. Gathering a little courage, I gulp down a lot of water before blurting out, "I think after today I might have to break up with Sean." I can feel the heat in my cheeks yet again and I can't meet his eyes as I add, "Because I don't think I could be with anyone whose soul is such a dark mystery after seeing into yours."

Alex keeps quiet for a moment after I tell him about the bonding,as though he is absorbing all the information I just gave him.It's almost like I can see the wheels in his head turning,trying to figure everything out.I wonder if he knows that he has a very animated face.
"You seem to have a pretty low opinion on humans' relationships," he says,not very unexpectedly all things considered since I haven't given him the impression that I am very taken up with his species "that makes me wonder how you know that much about it - did you study us or something?"
I narrow my eyes at him,"Are you making fun of me?"

"Are you making fun of me?"
Guilty! Not that I'm going to admit that. For some reason, it's fun to rile Isabel up a bit ... probably because it's so easy.
"Who, me?" I ask innocently, resisting the urge to point at myself. "No, why would I do that ... I'm just curious ... in the interest of science and all that."

I can feel my cheeks burning slightly. "Oh I didn't want you to... I..." But I did want her too... I just... didn't want her to react like that... because I now feel guilty and I don't want to ruin her life... but I do want her to break up with him. Is that really wrong of me?
"I mean..." I bite my lip hard before saying, "Don't make any rush decisions because of me Liz... nothing needs to be decided right away. If you did want to...marry me I mean...although why you would after seeing...anyway... even if you do you can still be with Sean if thats...if thats what you want. I would understand."

"Who,me? No, why would I do that ... I'm just curious ... in the interest of science and all that." he says rather too innocently and I get the feeling that he is trying to tease me or be patronising and it is very annoying
"Well I read and see enough around me to know that most humans aren't very serious when it comes to relationships.You all change partners like you change your clothes.Being intimate with another person isn't a big deal...after all..." I trail off realising that I am ranting so I calm down before speaking again
"I see enough of my students' parents who are divorced and it's horrible to see how those little children are so affected by it.." Franhly I wish I could bring them home and take care of them but they are only my students
