Well, if it would have hurt her deeply, that suggests that at least Susan really cared. I guess that maybe I just don't understand love relationships in quite the same way that many others regard the concept. Not sure that "passionless" is equivalent to "uncommitted." Your summary of the things which Roland said after coming out of the Grapefruit is accurate, but I don't know if it means that his love for her ever withered. You think that deep feelings for someone always make one stay with them no matter what other circumstances the world might present?

Sadly, that is the situation for many girls that age in the real world. It's not Disney Channel, but it happens.
