Saying I love you

It depends on you but I’m just like your boyfriend and I wouldn’t say it early on the relationship since it means more to me. I think 3 months is too early to fall in love with someone

I wouldn't worry, words don't always mean everything. Like people say Actions speak louder than words and as long as you are happy and feel loved thats what matters.

I've been dating my boyfriend for more than 3 months now and I've confessed to him that I love him but he hasn't said it back as he said he's 'more reserved in saying those words'.
My other 2 friends have already confessed their love for their partners and its been recipricated after they've been dating for around 3 months or even less.

Did I say it too early? Should I be worried? It gets me a little down because he still hasn't said it back and it makes me feel like I like him more than he likes me.

It's great that you felt comfortable enough to express your feelings. However, not everyone is as open with their emotions, and some people put a lot of meaning and symbolic weight behind the phrase 'I love you'. He may not feel ready, and putting expectations on it like "if he hasn't said it after 4 months, he obviously doesn't feel the same way" will just build unnecessary resentment. Everyone's relationship is different, including his or your past relationships, so comparing yours to others' won't help.

I recommend that you discuss how you feel with your boyfriend, as he is the only one who can reassure you, but make sure that you don't put pressure on him or make him feel bad for not saying it yet.

Thank you for your advice, I will stop comparing us to other relationships. How should I mention this to him in conversation as I don’t want to come across in the wrong way?
