writes:My boyfriend and I are very close, and we may be in love. We've shared a few new experiences together, and he spoils me in every way possible and for that I'm so lucky to have him. Over messaging eachother, most of the time I have been the one to start up meaningful conversations about our feelings toward one another, we have done it a few times and it's honestly so heart warming. But I feel as if I'm always the one starting those types of conversations, it's not one sided either. And I am always the first to say I love you over messages but when we see eachother he is the first one to say it. Anything to worry about here?

Talking about love too much is a thing girls might like to do, but boys really don't get into it that much. If you do it too much, you can drive him away. It will make him feel smothered and think you don't trust that he cares for you and have to hear it too much.
You've said a lot of sweet things, and I'm happy for you.
Things are okay, because you both show each other how you feel about each other. That's good enough!

 A love's young dream! It is nice that you are happy and you are sharing experiences. He may not be able to express himself to well over messages, and it is only words, if he treats you well that is the main thing. Anybody can say words, but it is the actions that count. Remember you are both still very young so take things slow and enjoy your youth.

 It's a young relationship and it's new, so don't rush it. Puppy love is something to enjoy, but not take too seriously. Most boys talk less about their feelings. Take things slow and don't expect too much, other than PG affection and genuine respect.
