The Question You Still Haven't Asked

Dreamgirl Diaries

You've thought about bringing it up.

Probably more than once.

Maybe it's a fantasy.

Maybe it's something you've wanted to try.

Maybe it's a conversation you've rehearsed a hundred times in your head.

You tell yourself you'll mention it someday.

Maybe next week.

Maybe after the holidays.

Maybe when the timing feels right.

But somehow the conversation never happens.

And I've noticed something interesting.

Most men aren't afraid of hearing "no."

They're afraid of being looked at differently afterward.

A no is simple.

A no ends the conversation.

Judgment feels different.

Judgment lingers.

That's why so many conversations never happen.

Not because the desire is too strange.

Not because the fantasy is too extreme.

Because being vulnerable is uncomfortable.

Especially when the opinion that matters most belongs to someone you love.

So the question stays in your head.

Month after month.

Year after year.

And sometimes, all you really want is to know that you're not the only person who's ever had it.
