I’m in loooove with my first loooove

I’m madly in love with my boyfriend and I don’t know if it’s too early to say it. Help!

I’m 21 and am in my first relationship. He’s the most amazing person I know. He was my first for a lot of things and I trust him with my whole heart. We’ve been dating since January but officially together since mid feb. Is it too early to say I love you?? Should I wait till he says it?? I don’t believe in that “men should do things first” but I’m more worried about what if he doesn’t feel the same way when I say it?? I don’t want to like scare him off or make things awkward. Idk I’m new to all of this

He’s been tagging me in “I <3 you” memes lately and it just makes my heart flutter because maybe he loves me too?? We’ve been long distance since this whole pandemic so I’ll be seeing him in two weeks and if I were to say it first, I want it to be in person.
