Because we- at the moment- are long distance, on Monday we had a serious chat about whether we should stay together, and both decided that we can get through this as it's only a temporary position.I sent him a message today... I was saying how happy I am we're still together after 18 months, and that I felt lucky to have him still, despite not being the best girlfriend on earth, but that I loved him very much.In reply, he said "All day, I've been thinking of how to reply to your message. But I just don't know how to. I love you too. Take care sweetheart *squish* xXxXxXxXxXxXxXx"My instincts tell me everything is fine, but the impression I got from his reply is that he felt put on the spot and that he had to reply in a similar fashion. He doesn't want to force what isn't there, in short.I feel like I'm being ridiculous... am I?

 That is actually a very nice response. I wouldn't be worried if I were you. He probably wanted to top your message and couldn't find a way to do it. The simple I love you is a wonderful reply. You're being ridiculous.
