“Len, I don’t want to trap you in a life you hate. I don’t want us to have a marriage like my grandparents or their parents before them, where we lead separate lives and grow to secretly resent each other. Is that where we’re headed?” “I don’t know,” I answer honestly. “But you know what I do know?” “What’s that?” I smile at him. “I love you, Dex. With my whole heart. Always have, always will.” He kisses my forehead. “Perfect timing. I needed to hear that right now. I love you too.”
