I think I love him

[first1]

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! :-(

I'm with Dozer on this... he has to declare himself before you say those 3 little words with any degree of intensity

Of course, there's nothing stop you ending a phone conversation with a breezy 'love you honey, bye' or a femme fatale stylee 'I do so love you, dahling' in response to him doing something particularly thoughtful just to get the four letter word out in the open and into his head play.

What a lovely thread :) DP and I said we loved each other after 2 weeks,moved in together the next day, and here we are 8 years and 2 kids later . We are getting married in September.

Fell in love on the second date - he swears he knew he wanted to marry me when he heard me speak for the first time...... 16 years and 4 kids later - still mad about him!

I knew, and told my boyfriend, that I loved him after 4 days. He wanted to tell me the day we met.

I didn't say it ffs kicking myself! But we ad one of those "moments" where we sat nose to nose really close smiling in silence for agesss and it was like we both knew does that make sense? Ah what a cop out I know. Tomorrow he's taking me for dinner with his parents (wana throw up with nerves emoticon) and we are having a bank holiday weekend away together this weekend so I WILL I WILL say it!!

I knew I lived DH after our first -shag- date. He told me three days later so I fessed too.
I was pregnant within 3 months.
Married 3 years.
Enjoy!

Strikethrough fail.

Perplexed I didn't know that was a strike through failure - I was dead impressed that you'd been on a shag-date !!!

NO, NO, NO. don't spoil the magic - don't say it until he does

Izzy speaks wise words!

I mean, just imagine if you'd been nose-to-nose and you'd said it and then...he doesn't say it back

Or he makes some joke or pulls away or even gives you a passionate snog then changes the subject

What then?

I know I know I do really ultimately want him to say it first for sure. I'm just impatient! Like what if we get to say, July/August and he's still not said it thinkin he's waiting for me? Bloody hell this is so not an issue to stress over but I just want those three words out there already!

He said it!

Just back from a wonderful three night romantic getaway. And last night we were walking back to our hotel along the beach when he told me to stop and close my eyes. When I opened them, he'd written "First1, I love you with all my heart" in the sand! I was stunned, and he took me by the hand, we sat snuggled on the sand and he told me he can't imagine life without me now and that he's really really serious about us. I threw my arms around him and told him how I felt too. Then we both sat smiling/giggling/crying together for ages.

I'm on cloud 9 and sooo loved up its crazy. Took us 15 weeks to say it, met both sets of parents but it was totally perfect and I'm so happy I didn't say it first!!

This is such a heartwarming tale for a Bank Holiday, ah, takes me back to those early days, it's just so exciting!

Aaaaaaaawwwwww that is so lovely- I'm ridiculously pleased for you!

:') What a lovely thread!

Gives me hope, and reminds me that I'm sane because I'm tiptoeing into loved up waters myself :)

That's lovely xx

Awww! It's so good to see a positive thread. Think, me and dh fell in love after about 2wks. He suggested going away to Rekjuvik (sp) in Iceland. I laughed, and said 'the beer is expensive there'. He said 'we'll save that one for honeymoon then' I then said ' who said I'm marrying you?' That was 6 yrs ago
Enjoy, whilst you can. Sounds like a great guy giving up watching footy to be with you. My dh wouldn't do that for his beloved rugby widow
Can I buy I hat????

Woo hoo
Enjoy
ps. Am now on a nice, nostalgic day dream back to those early days of lovliness and that glowing, warm feeling (but not in a ready brek way...if you get my drift)

Oh that's just lovely! I'm happy for you!

Longdistance - I'd say have a flip through some websites for a possible hat, yes just don't click "buy" yet

Omg I'm sooo happy, like, never ever been so happy ever (had a fuckin twatty mentalist of an ex)

ohhhh, what a sweet thread!!! so happy for you.
How did you meet?

My friend said the most romantic thing she's done with her dp on a beach was suck him off under a pier once

bloody brill!! happy for you both.x

Oh dear I appear to have something in my eye

Lovely, very happy for you.
