I’m terrified that I might be making the huge mistake of kind of falling in love with you, and you’re then going to tell me that nope, it’s that grandstanding blowhard that you really love, and I won’t be able to recover.

That was not a definitive. Also I believe I qualified it by saying it would be a mistake.”
