"Yea, right. But what if we do again?"
"So you are waiting for the absence of something?"
"I guess so."
"How do you know when something isn't happening enough?"

That was deep. I got what he was saying.
"But I'm scared," I said.
"So am I," he said.
And we cried together.
And I agreed to marry him.
My interpretation of this? Your gut was trying to tell you something, and he talked you right out of it.

Maybe I'm way off, but that was the thought that came to me when I read it.
