He dropped the L-word, and I didn’t say it back. I thought it. I just didn’t respond the way a NORMAL person would. Instead, I said, “No, you don’t.”

What’s wrong with me?

It wasn’t like I didn’t know he was going to say it. He’d been hinting at it for awhile, but mentioned that he thought it’d be scary so quickly in to say it, even though he felt it. It’s only been two months.

When you haven’t been in a relationship in awhile, to hear it and to say it… it just feels different. I don’t think it’s sunk in yet.
