Is she just saying what she thinks I want to hear?

Question - (7 September 2010) 4 Answers - (Newest, 9 October 2010)
A male United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

I have been dating this woman for about 6 months now.

I liked her a lot from the beginning but that feeling of love wasnt there at first. Over the last couple of months I have fallen for her more and more.

Last week we were lying in bed and I told her I love her, her reply was "so soon. I could grow to love you too" about an hour went by and she said "actually, I love you too".

I dont know if she has just said that because she thought it's what I want to hear or if she really means it.

I have since said it to her and she always replies the same back without hesitation, so I think its genuine. Her actions also spell it out but I dont know if she is still going through the infactuation part or not.

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

Well it finally happened. I live about 3 hours away from her by car. I think the final thing to convince her I loved her was I drove to her house especially to take her sick dog to the vet.

We ended up spending the night together and the next day she said those 3 words to me on her own.

I cant help it, maybe a little insecure but I get the feeling she has been testing me with little things to see how I would react.

We had dinner with a couple of her friends last week and one of them brought her baby daughter. During the meal I was holding and bottle feeding the baby as well keeping her ammused with silly voices and facial expressions. ( I had already had previous practice from my neices and nephew )

Shortly after it was over my girlfriend got a text from them saying we love him and he passed the baby test with flying colors. I will take that as a good sign for now.

IDk sometimes girls feel the need to say it after a guy does... She might reeally like you a lot... But it takes time and action to really tell if she loves you or not.

tennisstar88 agony auntThere is no gray area of love. It's either black or white, you either do or you don't. Now if she's around your age range of 36-40 you guys have grown out of infatuation. What's she's saying is she feels it's too soon to say those 3 words, and she's not sure if she reciprocates the feeling. Saying you could grow to love someone means "I don't love you but in time maybe I could". As of right now, for her it's a little too early to say it so I wouldn't say it her anymore for the time being. "I love you" becomes an auto response after a while. Or you could wait for her to voluntarily say it to you..I often tell my husband, I don't ever wait for him to tell me. Bottom line, there's no timeline on how long it takes for love to sprout, but in the mean time just take your time and when the time is right let her spring it on you, she knows how you already feel.
