Should the man say "I love you" first? (In a hetero relationship)

Question

I've been going out with my boyfriend almost 6 months now, and he's definitely the best I've ever had, and he feels the same about me. It's definitely a serious, affectionate relationship (We're both in our early twenties). We're really happy together and I knew I loved him weeks ago, but I feel like it's taboo for me to express my feelings first. I'm trying to wait for him to say it first since his last gf hurt him emotionally but I'm having a very hard time keeping these feelings to myself these days!

Answer

I don't see why it matters really

Answer

I waited for him to say it first, glad I did.

Answer

It doesnt matter just be open. My current bf of 8 months told me he loved me a week after we were together. I wasnt ready to say it until a week later but he understood. Be open and express your feelings. Communcation is key to a relationship!!

Answer

I find it difficult to keep that in when that rare feeling happens to me. I can't hold those words back too long. It's beautiful to say it.

Answer

I said it firt to my husband. I couldn't hold it in any longer. :) It really does not matter who says it first.

Answer

My last relationship he said it first, it was a great feeling. BUT with my husband, I said it first. Hearing him say it back was just as great, if not better. Life is short, share your feelings! 6 months is a pretty long time- it'd be appropriate for you to share your feelings!
