Seven Words I Seemingly Cannot Say

I tried to get the words out of my mouth tonight, but for some reason, I could not say "I think we should see other people." I have tried, believe, me and it's not for lack of opportunities. There were breaks in the conversation tonight that you could drive a Mack Truck through, and yet I couldn't get up the courage to say those words. Time, but no courage.

It's not so tough to say. In fact, sometimes I think the reason he was quiet at times during our meal was because he was trying to get up the courage to say the same thing to me. I really think he may be seeing other people, and might have been doing this for a while, but hasn't told me. Maybe not, but possibly.

And I'm not seeing anyone.Yet. But I want to make him aware of that possibility. Isn't it better that I let him know that it might happen? That would be the polite thing to do, right?

So, why can't I just say it?
