Now since then he doesn't say it very often, and I've found myself telling him that I love him more than he has told me, which surprised me as he has always been so affectionate, sweet and sensitive, and really into me.This is fine (I suppose) as I know he loves me and shows me in 100 other ways. But the question is, does the type of guy who doesn't say it much, also not want to hear it much? Because I feel like telling him all the time but I'm holding back now to the amount that he has....which is a bit frustrating, but I figure if he doesn't like to say it much (thinks it loses its meaning, wants it to be special and meaningful every time) then he probably doesn't want me telling him loads (maybe cos he would feel he has to reciprocate). What do you think? I don't think talking to him about it would work as he is too nice and wouldnt want to hurt my feelings by telling me to slow down with it! Reply to this Question

 Say what you feel, and don't worry about it. There are few people who don't like being told how much someone loves them.
Some people are good with words. Some people say a lot without meaning most of it. Some people have trouble finding the words, or don't like to put their emotions into words.
There are many ways of communicating love, and words are probably the least important. I think you've already found that, haven't you?

 Ask him outright!! Tell him you want to say it all the time but not sure if it makes him uncomfortable as you have noticed he doesnt say it that much. If was telling you every day and then stopped suddenly then maybe something has changed either way you need to talk to him x
