A woman narrates her emotionally turbulent romance with a man named Eric, whom she meets at a nice little place across the street. Though Eric is handsome and kind, she struggles with the fact that he shows no passionate desire for her, and she becomes increasingly jealous and tormented by his emotional restraint. After many dates together and a romantic evening at a roadhouse lodge where they finally kiss, Eric asks her to marry him, but she realizes his love lacks the wild passion she craves. The story ends with her lying in bed, crying and conflicted about whether she can marry a man whose restrained affection will never match her own intense longing.
