Me and my boyfriend have now been together for a little over 3 weeks, and he already told me he loved me. But since I don't love him back, I didn't say it back, just smiled.
I think the reason I can't say it is because I love someone else, who has a girlfriend. He's told me he loves me and we flirt all the time together. And, I do love him.
I need help knowing how to tell my boyfriend that I don't love him yet and I would like to know how to deal with loving someone that's not my boyfriend.

"he's told me he loves me and we flirt all the time together" but im guessing it's the guy you like who has a girlfriend. i know it's hard to resist someone who has a girlfriend, we always want what we cant have right [: if he's telling you he loves you and he flirts with you while he has a girlfriend just think of what he could be doing with other girls if you two did end up going out. there is alot to think about, if you need anything else let me know. best of luck to you! ♥ LU
