I have always said it first. Only one time it wasn't returned immediately and we were both young and he did eventually say it just not right then. With my husband I said it only two weeks after we really started being with each other. We had known each other a month prior to being together intimately. When our relationship turned intimate we never spent a night apart again until after we were married. I just knew with him. I knew he loved me too. I knew we would marry I just knew. We met in November, I told him I loved him in December he said it back lol. We were engaged in March, and married in July. Sunday we celebrated 8 years together. Sometimes you do just know.
Don't fret over saying it, it isn't worth it. Do what comes natural to you chances are he feels the very same way you do.

Finally one night I had had it. I had said "I love you" and he said the usual. I went into a wild rage about how I had wasted over 2 years of my life for this and blah, blah, blah. Well, you don't need all of the ugly details. I ended it by pointing to the door and screeching at the top of my lungs "And if you can't love me by now you never will so GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY HOUSE!!!!" He looked at me with total fear (lol) and whispered "I love you". Tres' romantic, eh? The best part is that he never stopped saying it after that, and I knew he meant it with all of his heart. I am truly blessed because as they wheeled him to ICU just before he passed, I said "I love you Baby" and he responded "I love you Sweetie". Those were our last words to each other. It doesn't get better than that! "peace" ~blizz~
