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

I remember the first time I told him I was in love with him. It was about a month after we first began messaging and talking.

His answer was that we hadn't even met in person yet so basically...how could I?

It stung. It really did. I'm not a person who takes a thing like love lightly and for me even say it in the first place was taking a huge risk.

I feel like that's when I began to slowly start backing away from him. It's when we began this lovers dance.
