I Wanna Be Loved by You... Krogstad

Is it ridiculous to think that I could have a second chance at love with Krogstad? I just think we would've been so amazing together. We could've started a family together and just think how happy we'd be by now. The only problem is, I'm not really sure how to suggest my plan to him... I suppose I could just straight-out tell him everything that I feel, but he doesn't seem like he'd appreciate that kind of outright affection.
