[Couples Therapy] 16.1 - Would you tell someone you're falling in love with them?

Jun 18, 2008 09:21

Okay, more specific...would I want to, or would I actually do it? Because honestly, the two are totally different, especially when you’re dealing with a boyfriend like mine.

I haven’t known Randy all that long...maybe two months, and we’ve only been dating a little over half that time. He’s determined to take things slow...physically, mostly, but he’s really been great about everything. Now me? I’m usually in bed with a guy by the second date. Randy wants to wait...and he makes me want to wait, no matter how much I needle him just to see him squirm.

He treats me like a princess. He loves my son. And I haven’t scared him off yet...this sweet, wonderful man that struggles so hard to deal with the reality of my world...and he’s still here. Every day, every second, no matter how far away he might be. He makes it so easy...being with someone again, feeling happy, being unafraid to enjoy the things he makes me feel.

He makes it so easy to love him...

I said it constantly before we started going out. I still say it sometimes, but only with every necessary warning and advisory notice known to man. So yes, I want to tell him I love him...and more importantly, I want to tell him that I’m falling in love with him.

Because I am...I really, really am. Every time I try to tell him that, though...I get cold feet and I dodge the bullet. I mean, I’m being realistic...I’m not in love with him. Not yet. I’m...it’s happening, though. I can feel it happening...every day when I can’t stop thinking about him, every time he says or does something that makes me feel more than cared for...he makes me feel so precious, when he’s the real treasure. I know how lucky I am.

I want to tell him how I feel...I’m just not brave enough. But the longer I’m with him...the better a person I become. So maybe one day...maybe he’ll make me brave enough to say something. I mean...in the end? Waiting for the right moment will be worth it. Especially with a boyfriend like mine.
