為什麼我們談戀愛需要慢慢來？❤️ (Why We Need to Take It Slowly in Love)
- We can grow more certain that we will find someone, here or elsewhere, because we have much to offer. We can survive rejection. We can afford to delay and explore. We can take as much time as we need, paying constant and close attention to how comfortable we feel, avoiding any embarrassment at being uncertain by communicating our hesitations honestly. So that, eventually, one day, when it finally feels right, we can take a thoughtful risk and reach out for their hand, knowing that we'll be able to survive whatever follows.
我們可以更加確信，我們會在這裡或其他地方找到某個人，因為我們可以提供很多東西。我們經得起拒絕。我們經得起拖延和探索。我們可以花盡可能多的時間，不斷密切關注自己的感覺是否舒適，通過誠實地表達我們的猶豫不決，避免任何不確定的尷尬。這樣，最終有一天，當我們終於覺得合適時，我們就可以冒著深思熟慮的風險，伸出手去牽他們的手，因為我們知道，無論接下來發生什麼，我們都能挺過去。
- We can take as much time as we need, paying constant and close attention to how comfortable we feel, avoiding any embarrassment at being uncertain by communicating our hesitations honestly.
