writes: My boyfriend and I have been dating for 6 months. He says he loves me and he never wants to lose me and wants me to tell him I love him but I just can't find the words. Lately I feel like I'm not as into him and I think about other guys and how my life would be without him and who would be left if I broke up with him and I can't think of anyone else but sometimes his immaturity is annoying and none of my family or friends really like him. They all say I can do better. Even his own friends. I've been feeling like this for a couple weeks now and idk what to do. Should I wait and see what happens or take a break? We've taken a break before and all I could think about was him but I'm not sure if this is different.

I've been let into that circle but everyone else has not. I guess I went through a weird thinking period because my feelings have changed. I feel like no other guy at this age would ever care about me as much as he does and he does brighten my day and makes me smile all the time. If I don't talk to him on the phone one day, I miss his voice. When I'm with him all I want to do is wrap my arms around him and kiss and cuddle. I randomly smell his scent during every day life because I miss him and I love when he lays in my bed and that night when I go to sleep I can smell him while i drift off to sleep. Is this love?

Breaks are no good, it's just hurtful and causes more problems down the line.
Yes, he's saying words like "love" and "forever" because he's never felt this way before. But that doesn't mean you're the only one he's ever going to feel this way about.
If you split up with him then he will be hurt, and if he's immature then he will probably lash out and do stupid things and be dramatic about it.
But then he will get over it and find someone new.
You don't ever have to stay with someone because they think they love you. Yes it will be horrible to end it but it's not the end of the world for either of you.
Life goes on.
Good Luck!! xx

Everyone is telling you that you can do better. And he does sound like he's really immature. I think perhaps the time has come to move on.
