I absolutely love this story. The feeling of need and longing is so familiar, wanting someone, but knowing that having them isn't any good for you. This is beautifully written and fascinating. I'll be keeping an eye out for more!

Wow! What a wonderful, sad tale! What a wonderful job you're doing. I bawled in ch. 3, so I hope the sadness is almost over and you'll make Spike see sense quickly! Please update soon!

Well done to Buffy for staying strong. I really want to know what happened to Spike to make him think he can't be the man she needs. Update soon.

I clicked this story because of the intriguing title, but I'm loving the angst...and I always get a kick when the 'canon positions' are reversed...

Stay strong buffy you deserve the best

Why does Spike always have to be the jerk . It is like I want to pull my hair every time I see another story where Spike treats Buffy badly and acts like a dick. Buffy leaves him and probably goes out with Angel or something. Spike then notices and he regrets the way he treated Buffy. He tries to win back her heart and beg for forgiveness. I can see it all now. I can see it going that way. I am so tired of reading Spike the jerk and Buffy the good girl.

OMG, that was so sad, i want to hit the dope over the head , i'm glad he feels bad for hurting her though, that's promising. for a minute I thought she was going to run into him at the restaurant ,with another girl , that's something an unthinking male would do . Hope u have her stay strong and not cave, make him grovel , alot! Update soon , I love this fic.

Good for Buffy! I'm so proud of here. She needs a nice vacation. However, a bad break-up is indeed usually good for your apartment ;)
Love the story, my favorite on the site right now.

Oh my god. I just found this, and I can't belive I gave it the brush-off before. Your summarey does not give justice to your incredible work. Every little thing about this fic, every part of the story, I love. So many times have I read the same deal over and over again, Spike's inlove with Buffy, but Buffy's not inlove with Spike. So refreshing to read about the unrequited love from the other side. And it helps that you write it so well. The core of the story is so simple, yet so touching. So human. The Pink Toothbrush is quickly becoming one of my favourites, so you better keep posting! xoxo/anna

Love the story. Update soon. Looking forward to seeing what happens next.

While the other chapters were sad, this one was heartbreaking! Hope someone will help Buffy! Can't wait to read more!
