I told him I loved him. After a long, drawn out conversation about all the things right and wrong in our relationship. I told him that I wanted to tell him things and not worry about whether he would say them back, so I said it. I said i’m not apologizing for putting you on the spot because I love you. because i want you to love me and if u dont thats okay. but he said I do love u i love everything about you. etc.. it was great
