2. pump the brakes on the 5 yr thinking. please. for your own good.

3. have you had a conversation with him about this? ask him what's the most comfortable way to express his feelings for you. it may not necessarily be easy for you to pick up on what's his thing. it took me over a year to do so because a)i didn't even know there were languages of love, and b)i was looking for MY language so i gave less consideration to his. i'm not saying you're close minded or anything, but try to observe him keeping these things in mind.

also, since its a new relationship, you need to give it more time. if he just likes you and that's it, there may not be too much to express other than "i miss you" when you aren't around each other. and there's no other language to express that other than saying it. lol.

1. Probably too soon to hear these words Like I said, he mentioned he liked me, but nothing more. Unless this is as far as introverts go to say.

2. I'm a little scared actually. I'm afraid of saying something wrong and would jeopardize whatever it that I may or may not ever know, and each moment I'm with him, I would be wondering. And I have to be careful with every step I take, every word I say, trying to read what is in front of me without making any wrong move. It's like taking a final exam!

3. yeah it's new, and yeah I'm WAS looking for a typical naive response like you see in the movies or what you would expect. So thanks! I never thought of a different way to the language of romance
I will try to give it more time, but again like I said in #2, I hate anything that ends up bad. I end up regretting it.

I do have another question. If I DO say or do something wrong and he gets effected by it (something like that happened recently but I apologized for it), is that a hint that he might be interested in me or it's nothing? Just curious if having an adverse effect on someone that provokes them to retreat in some way, means they did care about you or does it not mean anything at all....
