I told AP I love him. He's been saying it for awhile now. I was more reserved while I tried to figure out where this is going (we are in a long distance A). I've done a lot of soul searching and I know deep down that I want to be with him. We were talking the other night and I said it. I think it shocked him (in a good way) because he got very quiet.And then he asked me "Did you just say what I think you said??" and I said "Well, if you think I said I love you - then yes".


I thought he was going to cry. It was so very sweet. He's been so patient with me. No pressure - though he would tell me everytime we talked/texted/etc how much he loves me, he never pressured me to say it. He always told me I would say it when I was ready.


Wow. I feel like I just broke down a wall that had been standing between us.

Being involved in a long distance A is difficult, but we seem to be doing pretty well with it so far. Yes, we have moments when we're both frustrated that we can't be together,

i am pretty sure this will escalate,now that you have crossed the bridge! once you say that,when really meaning it,i guess,world seems different!You are a lucky one.taking things slow is THE best thing to do in any RS.
What are your plans?Long distance A can be frustrating as its the emotions you share ,the deepest ones.and the unsaid sexual tension can make it more intense especially when you talk at night,lol;-)

I feel like our relationship is different now that we've both said it. I feel like this wall that had been between us is gone. Almost like we're free. He's so incredibly happy to hear it from me -- he's like a kid in a candy store with $10 to spend! lol.


I've realized over the last few days that I won't be happy without him in my life. I want to
