I care about you, obviously. I'm also stupid levels of attracted to you at this point so as far as I'm concerned taking things a step further would probably feel pretty great. But I don't want it to happen just because some assholes triggered a territorial response. I don't want to feel like you're with me because we painted ourselves into some sort of metaphysical corner. Obviously instincts come with the package, that's not what I mean. I just mean that I still want this to be about us wanting to be together because of who we are... am I making sense?
Nothing to be sorry for, it happens!
