When You Can't Say The L Word?

Silence.
All I could utter was "Oh baby..."
What could I say back in return, when no emotions hit me.
See, when I fell in love once upon a time. I remember how my heart ached every single time he said it. And oh, how I craved to hear.
Now, another person is practically saying all the right things like as if it was published in text book. Taken context from any sappy love movies. On the other line of that digital signal of communication, was me. Racking any left working brain cells to tell me what to say.
I mean what can you really say, when you are not saying I love you?

See let's analyze this situation...
A) lie and say I love you when u really are not sure.
In this case when you actually do fall in love, you have already say it. You save yourself the hassle. Or if later you are sure that it was just a prolonged drunken state of euphoria and just good sex, you can say.... I'm no longer IN LOVE with u.

Problem is, you don't want to mislead. But in most cases u already have.

B) You could utter a consolation prize sentence like,
- Thank you (worst thing ever on my opinion)
- I love spending time with you
- I adore you
- You must be drunk ( which applies in most cases)
- I love me too ( and later just laugh and say oh dear)
- Something irrelevant like "did u know spiders have transparent blood," followed by a boring never ending story.

Thing is no matter what you say- if it's not I love you too. It just doesn't do any justice.

When a person truly confess what he thinks he feels, get his heart out there to be gutted, and you have nothing.... What can you do?
