I Don't Say I Love You Unless I Mean It

Love for a man means.... COMMITMENT!
Yes, he looses so much freedom, spontaneity, and has to have explanations for ANYTHING he does, misses or says - or worse... what he DOESN'T say.
Anyway, don't judge him too harshly... and remember to look in the mirror. When you have nothing to be ashamed of, neither will he.

That's so sad. Emotional connections are real. I don't think some people quite understand our emotions are so much more than just the physical contact. You have a big heart and I can tell you understand what love really is. Hugs :)

Jay- I am very emotional. Not to mean I go around crying or ranting and raging all of,the time. I feel my emotions very deeply and have let myself explore these emotions when they arise. I want to be comfortable with them and not let them control me as they easily have.

Wistful- you are exactly right my friend. I love your last statement" when you have nothing to be ashamed of, neither will he." Could you elaborate a bit more on that?

Enchanted, I have loved this man even before I knew who he was. My feelings were very hurt but...it was necessary for him so it would bring up His own insecurties and encourage him to begin healing. He believes Love is a lie. I hope he sees otherwise.

That's like a kick in the teeth IMO :(

I've never said it first, and would never think to say that...we all progress at our own pace but that was uncalled for.

That Aquarius heart though has sure taken some swift kicks but, I always get back up. There is a world of people that need to see and know love is not a lie.😊

Well that is that Aquarius heart we talked about. Glad you're doing well :)

I've had my share of kicks and keep going. Not sure where it comes from but I'm not willing to give up. Something that can be so painful yet so beautiful couldn't be a lie. I keep hoping one day to find the beautiful side.
