Saying I LOVE YOU...?

Don't say it first. Let him say it first. You will always remember how he said it. If you really do want to say it first, just say it matter of fact. You know, I really love you. You should also try to get in the habit of communicating more. I know its awkward in a young relationship but it really is so key to maintaining a good relationship. You have to be able to tell him what you need and how you feel. You really must be able to speak your mind. It will also make you seem confident to have your own opinions and to be able to talk about them.
