Im in a relationship for about the same length of time as you about 8 months.Everyday he tells loves me and even sends texts saying it.He treats me with enough care and respect for me to know he loves me.But listening to him say it shows to me how commited he is to me the same way as im commited to him.Go on tell her how much you love her more often (if you do)it wont hurt. :-)

bonym agony auntI believe actions speak louder than words my friend. Some people say they "love" someone with their mouth, but in their hard they don't feel a thing. I think that as long as you are a decent person, treat your lady with respect and honour, the words are not really that important. However I do feel that if you are truly in love with her and are comfortable around her then I am sure you will be able to whisper those ever so important three words!! All the best. xXx

Aunt Audrey agony auntDo you love her?

Has she told you that she loves you? If she has and you are in love with her tell her and make her day, woman like to know they are loved.

If she hasn't said she loves you maybe she's waiting for you to say it first.....

There's nothing wrong with sharing your feelings, but don't say it if you don't mean it!

Good luck!

heh. funny. im a girl, i know. maybe you dont need to say i love you, but actions arent always reassurance, she might love to know that you dont put anyone above her and that you love every little thing about her (dodging the three words). and by saying that, it will be easier to build up the courage to say it, if you feel that you actually do love her, in the future. or maybe when your having the best time with her one day, just tell her 'i love this, me and you.' but look at her when you say it, and she'll melt. just dont do it when your having sex xx

Yos agony auntMen and women show love in different ways. Men tend to demonstrate love through their actions (eg fixing her broken kitchen cabinet). Women show love through intimacy, affection and communication.

If you do love her, you should tell it to her on her terms. That's the best way for her to feel loved, and for you to communicate to her. This means not showing your love through some action or other, but rather telling her directly and frequently that you love her. Hug her, kiss her, whisper affectionate things in her ear. This will show her that you love her much more than any typical male demonstration of love.

Yes it can feel soppy. But it's really worth it. Really!
