Talking about the length of relationships before getting married really caught Justin off guard. Emily had never talked about anything like that with him in person before. Already knowing what kind of person her dad was, he couldn't blame her for her views on men but it still made him sad. Would he ever get the chance to prove that they weren't all like that? That he wasn't like that?
She said all those nice things about him but he knew she only did it because she was worried about insulting him. Even so, his heart fluttered a bit to hear the love of his life refer to him as the 'best guy ever.' He wasn't though.
Emily thought she had known him for two years and still didn't know much about him. Justin had known her for eight and knew almost everything about her. The deception weighed on his heart.
Part of him wanted to come clean. The other part wanted everything to blow over without him having to say a word.
