No chit chat for MONTHS, then:
Day 1 - He calls to let you know "I'm going to be here."
Day 2 - You text him, he calls back, you call back, he's lukewarm.
Day 3 - chit chat and a hug
Day 4 - you've fallen back in love with him
Day 5 - you ask him out, he declines

How is this not rushing? Where in the past five days have you slowed down?

If you love somebody, set them free.
