I love this private look into Watson's head - a bit more than he allows us to see in his narrative perhaps.
I like that you give us a bit of his past - it does seem likely at this point Watson would have known at least one woman he was serious about marrying. And I like that you allow us to see his disappointment over his life and his determination to carry on - meeting Holmes doesn't immediately make everything better.
