I take longer than most people when starting to love, and when I do, I often want to run out on them due to my fears and distrust.
I asked him to let me know when he falls in love with me when we were starting our relationship.
"This way," I say,
"I will have an easier way to fall for you, because I would feel safe."
On Christmas he tells me that he is in love with me.
I don't know how to respond.
I do not say anything and can't help wondering, Yes but how much?
