Okay this is deep. I have been seeing this girl for a while now. Known her for years but just expressed romantic interest recently. I figured I really liked her and wanted to get to know her more. Also realized over time that I found her more and more attractive. The more intimate moments we share, the more I felt the desire to become a better person. But here's what happened. I am leaving for a long business trip soon. I realized that I wouldn't see her for a while and asked if we could see each other before I leave. To my sadness, she couldn't make herself available. At first I was upset but then it dawned on me that regardless of that, there are no reasons why I would want her out of my life. As a matter of fact…I don't want her to leave my life at all. So I told her “Hey, your presence in my life puts pressure on my character and makes me a better person. I am glad to have met someone real and authentic. That makes you precious. I hope you know that the feelings I told you I had for you do not come with expectations”. And I left it at that… But the more I think about it… The more it starts to become clear… LOVE HAS NO EXPECTATIONS. I just told this girl I loved her in the purest way I have ever known… by accident. She hasn't responded yet and I am somewhat nervous with what she will say… either way… I'm glad I've come to realize it and understand it. If this was just another lesson, it's the best lesson I've ever learned.
You should not be afraid to express your feelings. Maybe she is taking sometime to respond because she is filled with emotions right now and she needs time to collect them. Something I have learned is you never loose by being straight forward. When you are honest and say or ask genuine things, you get a reaction, and that reaction will usually tell you everything you need to know.
Tell me how it goes
I’ll see you at the gym bro
YAAAAAASSSSS someone gets it! Well done!!! Don’t sell yourself short, you needed to say it and I am proud of you for doing so. It’s very freeing when you can just accept that you love someone because you want to and not to expect anything in return.
Please update as soon as she responds, this is amazing
That literally made me awe
You’re ahead of the game by being able to express yourself so honestly this way. She’s a lucky gal. My now husband was also the type to wear his heart on his sleeve. He knew what he felt early on and didn’t hide it. I was a closed person but that helped me open up too.
Love this
