Olive Juice?

Chocolates, roses or favorite flowers, cards, vacations, and nights on the town, it would seem when it comes to money we have no problem telling someone how we care. We do small gestures and grand gestures all to make our significant other see that we have feelings. But what happens the day that we realize what feelings we have exactly?


Its just three little words that while growing up are no big deal to say to mom, dad and other family members. As we get older we learn what they truly mean and find friends who really become special to the point that they feel like family and we find ourselves telling them the same words with the exact same meaning.


But the day comes when someone takes your heart in a way that has never happened before. You start to experience feeling that you have only herd about. Butterflies in your stomach, sporadic giddiness, random sighs and smiles when you hear their name or think about them, you even find yourself wanting to give of yourself in ways you never wanted to do for anyone.


As time goes buy and you find that these new feelings become developed and you find the other person appears to feel the same as you have a eureka moment. You love spending time, touching each other, and just trying to make each other happy. We natural find that although we are romantically involved with this person the common goals are the same that you share with your family and friends.


Do you tell them and then how do you tell them that you have grown past infatuation and lust. That giving of yourself for their happiness, makes you happy and you would be happy to do so for the rest of your life.


It suddenly seems like rocket science, you start to think if saying such a simple phrase will change things, will it ruin the way you interact? Will it make things better? You think about how serious you are willing to be with this person. You know that you are in it for the long haul. But you wonder, How will they take you saying such a serious phrase?


It then becomes a debate of “Should I, shouldn’t I.” To say or not to say, “I Love You”


You will find anniversaries and holidays could be a perfect time to say such a thing but you may back down. So you think you will let it just come naturally and each time your about to let it slip something in you pulls it back. You may think to just casually say it at the end of a phone conversation like you do with your mom. But that is not a good way to say it the first time. A card and candy may work but it may not be taken seriously because its on a card.


How and when do you say it, you cannot be ruled by fear. So I had finally decided to tell MR. MeTo how felt on our one week. But for some reason I Chickened out. I had told MeTo that I had a surprise for him but wanted to save it for Valentine’s Day.

The new plan was to make a romantic breakfast in bed and tell him then. To my surprise our pillow talk the night before turned to how we felt about each other. He, in a special sort of way, told me he loved me. I responded with an “I love you too.” We had both wanted me to say it first but he could no longer wait.

The moral of this story is that while you may be nervous to say it the other person may feel the exact same way you do. If you truly do love someone and you feel the urge just say it and leave the fear of being hurt aside. I knew MeTo loved me but I had in my mind all these different ways and scenarios of saying it when just coming out and doing it would have been the most effective.

And while using the old Olive Juice may seem like a good idea you will only regret it later.
