But, I've always thought she meant die in the undead, vampire sort of way meaning she wishes she were like him so their relationship weren't so hard and complicated and impossible.

Wow! That's interesting; I hadn't thought about it that way--how interesting. I love seeing people's interpretation of this line.

That being said, I'm not sure I would be such a B/A fan if it weren't for those cheesy parts because I really do love them and they are what got me hooked and allowed me to experience the other stuff.

Oh, I'm the same way. I shouldn't have put the stuff I thought was cheesy on the "things I can't stand list", because I love both the rings and the tai chi, and several other cheesy moments ("Are you still my girl?" "Always"). But as much as I love 'em, or as hot as they are, sometimes the just make me feel chagrined and think "Gawd, they're so cheesy!"
