this just kinda came to me....

 

"Will you marry me?" He looked into my eyes.

 

My heart longed to say yes, but I knew I couldn't. "How can I? You don't know anything about me..."

 

"What do you mean?"

 

"What's my favorite color?"

 

"Blue?" He guessed

 

"Red." I closed my eyes. "What color are my eyes?"

 

"Hazel?" He guessed again, hopefully.

 

"Green," I sighed, "What is my favorite genre of music?"

 

"Rock?" He took a ball park guess.

 

"I listen to everything. I don't have a favorite. See what I mean? How can you know that you truly love me, if you don't even know the simple facts about me? I want to say yes, oh so badly, but I'm not ready to make such a commitment to somebody who doesn't know me, and who I don't know. I'm sorry. And our relationship could have gone on, if you hadn't asked. But you chose to be hasty..." I felt my heart break. "Our relationship just won't be the same again. I...I need... I need to go. I can't go on dating you. I'm sorry, but I just can't keep going. Good bye."

 

I turned and walked away, eyes prickling with tears. I loved him, but I didn't want to marry him. and I could not continue dating him, with the knowledge that he wanted more. I turned the corner, and let my tears fall freely.

 

Author's Note

don't know where it came from. It just popped up in my head. Another message one. Don't be hasty, for it could end up hurting you more than helping... And that message could come from both the guy's and the girls point of view.
