Is it too early to say I love you?

Been dating for 6 weeks and seen each other at least 3 times a week, mostly more. Spent 24 hours together. I have felt like I love him for a while and bitten my tongue when went to say it as felt too soon and didn’t want to rush. Last weekend we were both drunk and he said it. He’s not said it since then so I don’t know if he meant it or was just drunk and I don’t know if he even remembers saying it. But I want to say it as I really feel it.

Shall I assume he doesn’t remember and so treat this like the first time saying it? Shall I wait for him to say it again?

Most people would say that you couldn't really love someone you'd only known for six weeks.
Though I had a 6 week holiday romance when I was in my twenties and the grief I felt when it finished has stayed with me to some extent for 25 years. Definitely "the one that got away". Was that love? It felt like it for a long time afterwards.

You didn't say it back when he said it?

My DH proposed in 2 weeks. We got married 14 months later. Married 30 years now.

You have been dating for 6 weeks and feel like you have loved him for a while?

Slow down. Seriously. Take a breath. You barely know each other, be cautious here.

I knew I’d marry my husband on our 2nd date and knew I loved him on our 4th date

If you know, you know

We knew each other before dating but when I said i knew I loved him for a while I meant maybe a week before he said it

When he said it to me we were both drunk so I said “tell me when you are Sober and I will say it back”
