Dear Cupid

I'm in a relationship with this great guy and hes really nice. I recently told him I loved him and he replied that he loved me too. Since then I've said it to him a couple of times and he always agrees, but he never says it first!

I'm sure he does love me, but it'd be nice to hear it first once in a while...

Any suggestions?

There could be a lot of things going on here, depending on the age and maturity of your boyfriend. One possibility could be that he might not really love you but feels pressured to say it to avoid hurting your feelings. If you haven't been together very long, or if you're young, this might be what's going on.

talk to him and tell him your concern. if he really does love you, he should feel comfortable enough to say it every now and then. a lot of guys don't verbally express love very well, but guys who are truly in love with their partners WILL say "I Love You" occassionally, without waiting for you to say it. if he has issues saying it, then he sounds immature and not ready for the type of relationship you'd like.

ever thought that he doesnt yet love you???. Love is usually mentioned in a relationship especially in youger couples when sex seems to be on the table. Girls want to be in love when they have sex. Men want sex.

Do not lose the faith. Most relationships start that way. he may not love you yet but give it time, take it easy in the bedroom department so he learns to respect you for both your mind and the body,

knowing someones mind is where the love is, not just in the physical and biological. The two happiest married couples i know are complete opisits, one couple were engaged after 9weeks, married after 15 months. The other took their time and only got engaged after dating for 11 years. Then it took 3 years to get married.

have faith give it your all, and if it all goes down the pan, start again. Remember if a relationship doesnt work out its not you or him its the relationship between you and him.

bridget agony auntHey there anon..

You should just communicate more with him.. Thats where most relationship problems stem from, less communication is NOT best...

Im always going on about the communication in relationships but really it is a big thing..

I suggest you talk to him about this he would respect you more for voicing your opinions...

Good Luck

Jacqueline
