   I can imagine it must have been a terrible blow to be rejected like that after   
   getting your hopes up that the love of your life still loves you. The blackest   
   day.   
      
   In a biographical book about the psychologist Carl Jung is described one of   
   his early cases, a young woman who was hospitalized with deep depression.   
   During examination Jung found out that before she got married she got to know   
   the son of a business    
   magnate, a man all the girls wanted. She was very pretty and thought that he   
   liked her. But he was apparently not interested in her, and so she got married   
   to someone else.   
      
   Five years later an old friend mentioned to her that when she got married it   
   was a shock - for the son of that business magnate. So he was interested in   
   her after all. That was the moment she fell into depression. She became so   
   mentally ill that she    
   killed her four year old daughter and attempted to kill her two year old son -   
   unconsciously, or maybe half-consciously. She lived in a rural area where at   
   that time for bathing people used water from a river that was not clean and   
   for drinking they used    
   water from a clean spring. Now when she was bathing her daughter she noticed   
   that she was putting the sponge in her mouth, but she didn't stop her. The   
   woman even gave her son a glass of unclean water. The daughter got infected   
   and died, the son survived.   
    She loved her children and she wasn't aware that she wanted to kill them -   
   that only came to light during her examination by Jung. It was of course   
   difficult for her to realize what she did but once she understood it, her   
   condition improved and soon she    
   could be released from the hospital.   
      
   That's an extreme example of what the loss of a love can do to us...   
      
   I understand that the lyrics of the song Affairs of the Heart reminded you of   
   your time with Carl Palmer, and who knows, maybe he had a hand in the writing   
   and was even inspired by his experience with you (or generally likes girls   
   with green or foxy eyes?   
   ) but this doesn't seem nearly enough to conclude that he meant to hurt you.   
   That conclusion seems to be driven by your disappointment that he didn't give   
   you the love you thought he had.
