How do you give a room for disappointment when you are extremely in love?

Part of me always somewhat prepare for anything that basically will throw me under the bus, one of it being is the feeling of disappointment towards someone. I know there are numerous people out there whenever they’re extremely in love, it is easier for them to brush of that feeling and let it pile up until they can’t take it any longer. There are people who also manage to shows the feeling, let it sit first as they try to untangle them before expressing the matter to someone they love. As I get older, I tend to choose the latter for the sake of our relationship. I adore and love them so much, that I believe, expressing my feeling is a matter of conflict resolution, so that they could see that I feel that sort of feeling and I wish them to do something about it. On the other hand, I genuinely wish for them to do the same thing too.

See, there is a quote “I love you, Dexter, so much. But I just don’t like you anymore” in a film entitled ‘One Day’ (2011) and from that scene, we can clearly see that there will always a room for any sort of disappointment feelings and you still choose to love them regardless, and I will create that specific room for them, so that I could still think (I suppose) rationally before I conduct my speech for that matter.
