Natalie Porter and Mitch Williams have been best friends for the past ten years. But, unfortunately for Natalie, that relationship has grown to where she feels more for Mitch than mere friendship. She is in love with him and fails to understand why he continues to only see her as a platonic friend. Whenever Mitch wants to spend an evening with someone, doing something more than bar hopping, Natalie is the first person who comes to mind. What pains Natalie even more is Mitch's insistence on comparing prospective romantic interests to her. In Mitch's eyes, these young women never seem to measure up to the type of person Natalie is. "Why can't he find someone like Natalie?" However, when Mitch learns that Natalie is dating, he then discovers his feelings for Natalie go a bit deeper than their just being best friends. But did Mitch wait too long? He knows now his search for the ideal woman is over. How does he convince Natalie that she is more than just the girl next door? Victoria D.
