How would you take this?

[IamScarfaceClaw]

New boyfriend and I have known each other and been close friends for 10+ years, so lots of shared experiences, shared emotions etc in the past.

3 weeks ago we decided to ‘see how it goes’ and have spent 3 full nights together since.

Last night, cuddled up post coital and drifting off to sleep he whispered “I love you”.

So...idly wondering, would you take that as genuine emotion or just ‘in the moment’?

My first reaction was ‘awwwww’. Did it make you feel happy?

It’s not like it’s someone you’ve only know for a few weeks who’s saying it, it’s someone you’ve known for 10 yrs and he’s maybe bottled his feelings for you up for ages

Ha that was my first reaction as well! Yes it did make me feel happy.

I think you’ve got your answer then. I’m imagining it’s like When Harry Met Sally.

@IamScarfaceClaw love is just chemicals and he was overwhelmed with chemicals after sex and felt the need to express it it seems
