~ Fast Reply ~ Some years ago I made a commitment to myself to live an honest life. So when I was kinda seeing a man who I was really growing fond of, after having spent an amazing weekend together connecting on all sorts of life levels, I told him I thought I was starting to love him. I didn't say "I love you" or "I'm falling in love with you." I said "I think I'm starting to feel some love for you." In my world, love is a wonderful thing, so if I love somebody I tell them. The last thing I want to do is stifle myself from expressing love. And that's part of my living an honest life. So he asked what if he doesn't love me back? I said it didn't matter. I thought he was a really cool man and I loved hanging out with him, laughing, talking, singing (yep, we laughed and sang together), just enjoying. He asked me several questions about what I expected back, if I loved him...it really freaked him out. And then we parted company and I didn't hear from him for ohhhh....about 6 months or so, when he shot me an IM to say hello and he's sorry he disappeared. Yeah, I had kinda moved on by then lol. So he apparently wasn't ready/didn't want to be loved. And he vanished. I was OK with that. A little ego wounded at first, but...meh. It was a risk I was willing to take. So when I met the Mister, I still kept my commitment to myself. I figured he could accept or reject my love - that was up to him and not within my control. And if he rejected it and moved on, then so be it. I'd rather live honestly in my relationship, and to me, that means expressing what I feel. Turns out, though, I didn't want to love him, and I didn't want him to love me. I just didn't want to go there. But....we did. And we tell each other all the time that we love each other. So yeah, it really just depends on the person. Some want love. Some do not. Some are afraid of it. Some already have it.
