Are you both young teenagers. It sounds like you are so im going to assume you are. Its just teenage ifatuation. It wears off, then its harder and you need to actually work to keep yourselves together. See if you can be botherd then.

I think as long as you both love each other equally this is never a problem. It only becomes one when one person is more attached to the other because the other feels crowded and under pressure whereas the one who loves more feels underappreciated and unloved but since it sounds like you and your boyfriend are both on the same wavelength I say appreciate how lucky you are to have found each other and enjoy it!

My dear, you are both in a heightened emotional state regarding each other so when there is a disagreement those heightened emotions carry over. You can never love someone too much in my opinion. Too many times we don't know just how much we love one another until it is too late. I had a nightmare once that gave me a little insight to how much I love my wife. We were walking down the street one night and there was a drive by shooting. I could not get her to the ground fast enough and she caught several bullets killing her instantly. I awakened screaming! My wife hadn't a clue as to what happened and I had to calm down before I could tell her why I just needed to lie there holding her, sobbing. My emotional feelings told me just how much I do love her. Just be glad you don't have to go through such a traumatic thing to discover your feelings for him. Doc.

In my opinion you can never love someone too much. Our hearts have a massive capacity to love. Obsessing or becoming infatuated over someone (thinking you love them) is another thing very different and sometimes gets mixed up with love.
Love is long suffering and kind, love is not jealous and it doesn't brag, it does not get puffed up and it does not behave indecently, it does not look for its own interests and it does not become provoked. Love does not keep account of the injury but finds happiness in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things and endures all things. Love NEVER fails.
Here endeth the lesson! :o))
