“I know you love me, and I know I can’t make you do anything, so fine. I’m not sure anyone really gets to choose who they love, but we do get to choose how we love. All I can do right now is make you see that this time I’m choosing differently. So have your doubts. Walk away tonight and think we’re not together. I don’t care about being your boyfriend right now. It doesn’t have to ‘be like that’. I’ll just show you how much I mean it when I say that as long as you want me around, I’m here. Where I live and what I do for a living will not change that. No matter how much you think it will.”
