.... even normal relationships aren't perfect, you know? Even if you were to just stay friends, you could just as likely hurt her.
But just because people get hurt, that doesn't mean that the entire bond you have between each other is bad...

Maybe you're tough in other situations.
[compromise]
... but even if she has, I'm sure she can handle this. It's just the beginnings of romance, not life or death.

[ a beat ]
I wouldn't say that. Even if the timing's all wrong, it's always better to feel things.
