Self sacrifice... Written by Moni (10/10/2008 3:07 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, Not exactly, penned by Line

Interesting to think about. Considering Anne was so good at self sacrifice, maybe it made her feel better to think she was denying herself the Captain for **his own good***. Because people around her tend to ask that she sacrifices a lot of her own needs, and she appears valued only by one person for who she is, perhaps she really believes in this? I find it sad that this made Anne feel better, even though her heart was broken.
