"Jim, don't you think that's it's a bit too early, I mean we just started working on ourselves, I think we should give ourselves a little more time and all of that, don't you think?" I ask Jim, trying to sound as friendly as possible

"Is that what you want, princess? Or you think that I'm going to go back to who I was?" Jim asks, his tone is neutral

"I'm not saying that Jim, I just think we should be able to understand ourselves better and all of that before we conclude on an engagement" I explain better
