You could take more time to consider. [ Saying what he was thinking, he appends: ] Eternity is a long time, love.
[ It also seems like a no-takebacks kind of deal. ]
I've seen enough of the world, loved and lost enough to know that I'll never find anyone like you. [ Big words for someone who is, essentially, a Country Boy. ] But the world may surprise you yet.
