so me and my bf have been going out for just over 6 mos. we spend like 99% of our time together (we practically live together, i pseudo live in his dorm room). i'm so attached to him and im pretty sure i luv him. but i haven't said it yet becuz he hasn't. y hasnt he??? is it possible that even after spending soooo much time together and being so sweet and caring to me as i have to him for 6 mos that he still doesn't luv me? or could it be that he's scared or just procrastinates? his nature is pretty much just slow and patient...but still... isn't 6 mos pretty long for not saying those 3 words....unless u're just casually dating.

It depends for some people. I never said "I love you" to my bf until 8+ months. Or he could be shy

[HaplessChild]

When he wants to say it he'll say it. It's as simple as that. If you try to rush it you screw things up. He may never say it and you'll either have to deal with it or move on. The biggest mistake you could make would be to approach him with this question.

[heavenztears]

You have to understand that each person expresses it in a different way. Saying it is one, but a person not saying 'I love you' doesn't mean they don't love you. They just don't say it that easily. Just have patience and when he feels like it, he will. I'm sure of that.

And you have to look at other things as well. You say he's sweet and caring to you, while spending almost all of his time with you. That should say enough, don't you think?

i'm so attached to him and im pretty sure i luv him. but i haven't said it yet becuz he hasn't.

well why do you depend on him? i can't understand the logic why you wouldn't verbally tell him that you love him because he hasn't done the same to you? is there a sexist issue here - that the guy should be the one saying those three words first before the girl does?

why not tell him that you love him. look into his eyes when you tell that to him, and make sure you mean it. then check on how we will react, if you want to know an answer from one POV.

me and my boyfriend have been going out for 6+ months, and neither of us have said it yet. And I don't think we're planning to any time soon, either...we're taking it slow. I think it's nicer to let the feelings build up, and then tell them when you really mean it instead of rushing things. To be honest, sixth months isn't a very long time...just wait a while

[jhealizzie]

guys don't say the magic words when their partner haven't also.(well, mostly)
they are just like that.
Just say you love him, if you really do

[hippiehop]

If you need to hear it so badly, say it to him first.

If you need to hear it so badly, say it to him first.

there ya go

maybe there are cultural disparities on this issue. i dunno. lol.

[MsChen]

He probably wants to say it when the time is right. This doesn't mean that he doesn't love you though.

[StephyT]

Just because he doesn't say it doesn't mean that he doesn't feel it.
Give it some time, cus 6 months isn't that long..

[Cheri.B*]

You shouldn't over stress on this issue.
Sometimes the guy can be shy to initiate and doesn't mean he doesn't love you back the way you do with him.
Also it can be that he is waiting for the right moment to say it.
I dated a guy for two years and he never murmur the 3-words ever.
I actually wasn't stress about it since these kind of things cannot be force.
He was pretty shy but he did actually loved me.
Too bad we broke up before he even tell me.

To me, it seems like you only have two option.
You tell him first or you wait.

What are you waiting for =P

[lil_miss_kawaii]

Why dont you just say it??

Stop waiting around cos he mite be waiting for you too ~ or he could jus be showing it to you in a different way
I guess guys are quite closed when it comes to emotions so if you say it hell prob say it bak

[MizzprEEETy]

Really...6 months and you expect him to say "I love you" already? For some people, they don't say it unless they mean it...Even if he doesn't say it, it doesn't mean he doesn't care for you and or love you.

I have a friend who's in a relationship with a her boyfriend for about 3-4 years now and he never once tell her "I love you", he's one of those guys that doesn't say mushy/lovey-dove stuff. He doesn't even say he misses her because he say "If I call you, that means I miss you, so what's the point of saying I miss you?"...she told that she'd love to hear it but as long she knows that he sees her in his future...that's all it matter.
