Is it Love??

Hello Ladies.... So as some of you know I was seeing a married man awhile ago and shortly after posting on here about it I did a lot of thinking and realized that no matter how much I was in love with him and he was in love with me, we could never have a future together.... I broke it off and I was devastated and then....... I met this incredible man.. He is two years younger then me which I don’t care about, sexy as hell and most importantly single!! We have been dating since June and I have to say, everyday I spend t with him and see how he cares and interacts with my daughter, it has made me feel things I never though i would ever feel again. I have found myself falling in love with him and as each day goes more so.....So lastnight we were in bed together and he leaned over me, looked at me and told me he loved me, then he kissed me unbelievably and then we made love. I however was caught off guard and did not say anything back because I was in shock for one and I wanted to wait to say it back because I didn’t want him to think I was just saying it just because he did... I want to wait for the right moment. My question is.... Since it’s been such a short time that we have been together, do y’all think he means it or he was just having a moment and blurted it out??? I truly feel like I am in love with him and wanted to say it for a few weeks but was afraid he would think it was too soon... Do I believe it or not?!?!
