lover tells me about their family. i'd like to meet the family holding my lover's hand. lover tells me about their family. i want to cry with anger, how little family accommodates them. lover tells me about work. i wish i could come massage their tired legs, and get a whole car just to bring them home in. lover tells me about their lovers. i want to ask why they did that to my lover. lover tells me about their hobbies. i'd like to work hard all my life, just to give my lover gifts for games and photography and painting. lover smiles at me, and i wish i could hand them my heart through the screen.

and you will have to leave them.

So, yes, it was a slow, slow burn. But I wouldn't have it any other way.

Romancing a demiromantic is, ultimately, a test of patience. You need to value the person over the relationship you want with them if you really want them to potentially return your feelings or get into a romantic relationship with you one day.
