alright, alright, ya got me there Halx.
But really, that kinda goes against the whole idea of the thing, right? The nun is "teaching" a lesson to the monk for not having the balls to be bold about his love... so his love is imperfect somehow, because he can't declare it without fear.
So, from the lesson of this parable, we should all be going around declaring our love, without fear of the other person not talking to us again. But we all know that almost no one does that (more than once).
So I'd have to say that this parable is pretty damn romantic and not realistic, in that sense.
But, eh, who's keeping track. It sounds nice.
