I think I love him

That's nuts right? I've only been with this guy for 7/8 weeks ffs. He's just left mine to go to work and I got a bit sad (I hid it well) that he was leaving. He's just text saying "hated saying goodbye baby, can I come over again tonight? I'll cook". I know it's crazy but I really think I'm in love with this guy but I don't know why to do about it, I don't want to freak him out. Think I've just answered my own question haven't I? Just shut up! :-(

That's lovely! I felt the same about my DP literally the first time we met. I told myself that I was being ridiculous but it was the weirdest feeling, like I have been waiting for this person all my life but never knew it. 8 years on we are still head over heels for each other. It is wonderful. Best of luck to you both x

Had THE best weekend Grin Saturday night my parents had dd whilst we went for a lovely dinner and a few drinks, then woke up to breakfast in bed. Then we went and collected dd and had a fab day at chessington. Came back and dd and dp played in the garden together whilst I cooked a roast. Then spent the evening all snuggled in front of a film and decided for the two of us to go away for may day bank holiday. Can't wait. Def def ridiculously on cloud nine right now Grin

Kaluki · 11/04/2012 23:34

Aw! I knew after a few weeks but waited for him to say it first. When he did he said he knew earlier but didn't want to scare me off!!
Just go with the flow and enjoy!!!

Aw that's lovely kaluki!

Ladies I need quick advice please Smile So dp and I have been together 13/14 weeks now, it's going amazingly and next weekend we have a lovely weekend away planned. But tonight we are having one of our date nights and weve decided to go for drinks at the bar we had our first date at and sit on the same sofa Smile Shall I just tell him how I feel when we're there?

Go for it!

curiositykitten · 29/04/2012 16:40

If it's how you feel, tell him. If he walks away, he was never the one for you - wouldn't you want to know that sooner rather than later?

I think he feels it too. He's planned some pretty big things he wants me to go to in te future (family weddings, his nephew's christening etc) would he really plan stuff like that if he didn't?

MushroomSoup · 29/04/2012 17:52

OP - you don't need his words to know he loves you. Even I can tell FFS!!!!

MushroomSoup · 29/04/2012 17:57

And just have a lovely night and go with the flow. Say it if it feels right, you don't need to plan it.
I blurted out "I love you!" a few weeks in when he brought me a cuppa and a full English brekkie to bed (it was the bacon that did it!). I tried to cover it up - kept talking!- but he said "you just said you loved me!"
I was absolutely mortified but then he kissed me and said he'd loved me for ages. Then we got stuck into our sausages!
Aww I'd forgotten all about that until now!
We got engaged after 6 months and married after 14 months. Still happy 10 years later.

Yes!!!

finnbarr · 29/04/2012 20:54

Soooooooo..???!! Did you OP??!!

fortyplus · 29/04/2012 21:03

How about instead of 'I love you' say 'I think I've fallen in love with you'

Subtly different?

AnyFucker · 29/04/2012 21:10

even cynical ole me thinks you should tell him you have fallen for him Smile

he sounds lovely, and so do you

MushroomSoup · 29/04/2012 23:31

Lol @ AnyFucker - 'even cynical old me'!!!

Dozer · 29/04/2012 23:41

No no, he should say it first! And anticipation is exciting!

OMG, have come over all traditional.
