I liked the story a lot, but I can't help noticing that the end of the story, she said "I realized it was not that remarkable for a person to understand what another person needed"...in a case where she didn't say what she wanted. She didn't say "I want to drive the boat". Lindsay and Jeff just know.
Now this is better than a fiance who, when you tell him what you want, tells you not to want that. But it's not what one actually needs to do, which is to say what you want and have friends (or a fiance) who cares, and listens.
