I think true love is a very rare thing, it just doesn't come along all that often.

And sometimes people move on, and find love again.
Sure, it's possible that Lindsey wasn't in love with Carol. But it's just as possible that he was. Love comes in varying degrees, and forms, and for all we know, he's currently married to the love of his life. Or maybe not.
How do we know? Personally, I just hope he's happy, and that he's loved. Same as I'd wish for anyone I cared about.
