How far into your relationship did you or your SO say "I love you"? I've been with my bf for 7 months and he told me that he has feelings for me but isn't ready to say "i love you" yet because there's a difference between loving someone and being in love with someone. I don't want to be the first to say it because I know he's not ready to say it yet.

*He's my first bf and he's been engaged before so there's a lot of reasons to take it slow. We also met online so we've only known each other for the 7 months that we've been together.
