Lol, stressed, who's rule? I think I will wait for him to say it, for one so I don't feel like I'm pressuring him to say it, plus so I don't make him uncomfortable. I think he'll be more ok with it first anyway. But I think if it ends up obvious that we are and it goes to long without saying it, I will do it so it doesn't end up that much more uncomfortable because we went too long without saying it.

You know, there is no bigger buzzkill than saying I Love You and getting a different response, or worse, no response...Comment
