I say I love you because I am trying to comfort you. I wish you could feel secure in that. I say I love you so you feel cared about, cared for, and know that you are lovable and deserve to be loved.
And because I love you, I will support your moving to a new life and and new employment. I know you need to this.
And no, you don’t need to ask if you fail will I rescue you – for two reasons. First, you won’t fail. You may struggle and be unhappy at times. But, I believe in you and I know you are a strong person – stronger than me. I know you will succeed.
And secondly, of course you can come back any time you want. I would never turn you away. But I won’t be hoping for failure to get you back.
