Just had a lovely 24 hours with the man I have been seeing for nearly 5 months. He is lovely, affectionate, frequently tells me that he loves being with me etc but hasn't actually said 'I love you'. Actually, he may have done so once, very softly when we were in bed, but I couldn't be sure. Either way, he hasn't said it again, or at all.
We only see each other at weekends due to distance but are in regular contact through the week. Honestly, the way he looks at me, holds me, smiles at me, plans things with em, make me think he really cares about me but those missing words are now getting in the way.
I love him, I'm sure of that now and feel ready to burst when I don't feel I can tell him. I'm just so scared of saying it first in case he doesn't feel the same and it spoils things.
