"Not that I can speak for him, but I think it was from both of us, but there were problems, issues. Marty didn't think he was ready. He wasn't the type to do relationship. He didn't know if he was ever ready. Sound familiar?" she asked.
Savannah sighed. "It's hard to understand because I'm not sure that we are all saying the same thing. First off, I don't think that being a partner is easier. Because a partner requires the same involvement that you have with your husband. You take care of your partner in every way, including the emotional problems. If that weren't the case, we wouldn't be talking, would we?"
She squeezed his arm. "I think the big problem with this 'right now' is that you can't qualify feelings. You either feel something or don't feel something. Now, I can understand if you say that you have feelings for him, but are afraid to get involved or have reservations. I don't think it's right and it seldom works in the long run, but I understand it. Now, if you say that you don't have feelings then it's pretty definite. Accepting that you do have feelings is the first step. I might have talked about wedding from day one, but we hardly knew. Every day was an adventure and plenty of times, I thought we'd never get married. I think you're seeing having feelings as the end of things, but it's really the beginning."
