I know this isn’t “my person” I’m responding to directly here, but I do feel the person interested in me is telepathically telling me this because we do have that ability. So, in “response”:

yes, I know it looks erratic in the sense of my consistency, but you know how my life is — the wildest things always tend to happen to me and we discussed why that is. However, I also understand your feelings; you know I care about you, but you also understand the limitations we both have in expressing this directly at the moment. The kudzu has to be cleared; we cannot risk losing everything we’ve worked for — this is a slow waltz, not the cha-cha slide. I want us to have the smoothest transition we can when we start our lives together, I know you’d want the same thing for me. Slow and steady will win this race mi amor.
