I’ll admit, sometimes I’m not the best listener.  Sometimes I’ll move on to the next conversation and then go, “Wait, what did he just say?”  This has been the case twice with 6′4″. We’ll be talking on the phone, all is well, making plans, whatever and as we’re saying goodbye, there have been two times that he mumbled something.

I think he said “Love you.”

Wait, what?  I’m sure it doesn’t help that my response has been, “Okay, talk to you later.”  Doh.

I did have an experience this week where I talked him and a few minutes after we got off the phone, I stopped and was just in awe of how much I care about him.  Not quite ready to drop that L bomb, but I do care deeply though.

I guess I’ll just try to listen better and maybe I’ll actually be able to verify that the L word is part of our conversations…and maybe someday soon I’ll be able to say it back.
