Whilst watching ‘Disappearing Acts’ the other day with Soldier, I thought I’d enquire how he felt about me, and us…..
Me: What do you want for us?
Him: I want us to be happy…be together…
Me: Are you happy?
Him: Yep…very happy
Me: Do you see us together in 30 odd years?
Him: Yep-We’ll get married, and I’ll take care of you, buy us a house, and have kids….
Me: Ok….so um, how do you feel about me?
Him: I’m in love with you
Me: *Stunned silence*
*After about a min of stunned silence *
Me: What you say?
Him: I’m in love with you. I’m really happy with you…I want us to be happy together
Me: *silence*……
Me: So you’re saying you’re in love with me??
Him: Yeah-I am
*He leans over and hugs me*
Me: Um….right…..ok……
Yeah…um….wasn’t ready for those lyrics…I didn’t say anything after that, we just kinda fell back into the movie….I like him a whole lot…but I don’t think I’m at the love stage….I’m in deep-like with him right now. Yeah, um, why did I ask? I dunno…..but honestly, that response I was NOT expecting....dunno what I was expecting…but it wasn’t that.
Tonight I’m introducing him to Nando’s…..might even go and see some fireworks display at the park later….Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

WOOOOOOOOW!
I so feel you on this. The first time I had a guy say those three words, I was stunned too and reacted pretty much the same as you. Of course later I lied and said those three words back, because it was easier than talking about it.
I like that you didn't lie to him and it seems like he is patient enough to understand that you are not ready yet. Whether you think you're in love or not, there's gotta be something serious there on your part for you to ask him about the relationship so bluntly.
Don't be scurred...enjoy it!
PS: I loved Disappearing Acts...though the book was much better.
OH MY GOODNESS... WOW!! Ok, first...I was so glad to see the title...(glad you guys are still going strong) and from a blind date you didn't want in the first place...NICE.
That was so wonderful reading that (I'm living vicariously...so be quiet), but like big diva said...I'm glad you didn't lie to him OR yourself. You know how you feel and are sure of what you want. Now, just don't drag things out TOO long because while you're THINKING about loving him, he's loving you all the more, which could make a sad situation if you turnout to think differently.
Your reactions was the same as mine when my man told me those three little words. I didn't utter them back until about a month later.
But in the meantime, enjoy yourself.
Awww...him in love :)
You know you always have to be prepared for the answer when you ask a question :)
Looks like the ball is in YOUR court. He ball checked you on this one :)
Don't know the whole story behind the relationship with you and Solider, but if he's anything like me, he realizes what he has really quick and has no problem expressing it. Don't be scared by it, and don't feel obligated to tell him, if you don't feel the same way. At the same time, just be careful.
I gotta agree with the majority in this case in saying it's good to know that you didn't say it back [just to be saying it].
It's definitely not unheard of for one person in the relationship to develop deeper feelings for the other FASTER and it's certainly not unheard of for one to have expressed these feelings while the other hasn't reciprocated.
You obviously care about him a great deal. I say you take things slowly [or at least at a pace you are comfortable] and if/when it's time for you to say those three little words in return, you won't regret it. :-)
The ladies have already said it all so I'll just say DITTO! LOL!
you already know what I think.
awwww sooo cute!!!
