the trouble with LOVE is..
i am a firm believer that you cannot force people to do anything against their will..primarily because i'm quite stubborn and if i do things its usually because i want t do it myself.
but what if someone says they need your confirmation on something, but you dont want to because you're not ready to give the green light or you would rather it be something you did in your own time, not said or done because someone prodded you on or something you do in reciprocation to what the other person did? then it would not only be short changing yourself, you are also shortchanging the other person.
i guess if the other person is not patient enough to wait for me to be ready and do (whatever it may be) in my own time, and out of my own free will, then maybe that other person doesnt deserve to have that confirmation in the first place.
of course i'm not talking about a life or death situation here. if i have to give my kidney to save my biological sister's life, i would. its more trivial than that...
does love count as being trivial?

I think you're right. It's better that whatever you want to say, comes out from you at your time. It's sincere that way. If that person forces you to give an answer, then that person doesn't deserve any answer! End of story.
Love is not a trivial thing, in my opinion that is. Humans are born with emotions/feelings and we would surely want to share them with someone (particularly love). But anger, that's a different story. I don't think I want to share someone's anger. LOL

That is true, but, the other person is probably thinking the same thing..then again they could just...uh..lost my train of thought. I guess it depends...I'm assuming this is about a profession of love? So the question is did the other person just profess their love to you and ask you to do the same, or did they just ask? Because if they just professed their love, I think it is reasonable to expect a response.
