This could be it...


Question Posted Friday May 8 2009, 3:19 am

My boyfriend and I have been dating for a year and two months. We're totally crazy about each other...we spend everyday together if we can. He lives in another state thats an hour from me. He has been saying "I love you" an awful lot and how much he cares for me. I have been getting this feeling that he maybe the "one"...but i'm scared to tell him because it might scare him.

He is scared of marriage but its weird he says it would be "awesome" to have my kids someday. We are best friends but i feel this is one thing i can't tell him.

What should I do? Do I tell him or no?

I think you should mention it, but don't go all the way with it. You know what I mean? Don't say, "Hey. I think you are the one I want to spend the rest of my life with." That's really scary to hear. He may be feeling it too, but you don't want to get too serious. It's okay to talk about your future, but do it lightly for now. He said, "having kids with you would be awesome". He didn't say, "Hey, I would really like to settle down with you someday and have children."
Right now it's just something to flirt around with. What I'm saying is that it's okay to bring it up, but don't be too serious about it. Just passively mention it and see how he feels about it.
It sounds like you have a great relationship so far. I'm sure he would like you to mention how much he means to you.

I think you have been dating long enough to bring up the subject of your future together. Sounds like he has already anyway. Now, you just need to get serious about the discussion!

If he is telling you he loves you, he is just waiting for a response from you. Why would you be scared to share your feelings? Talk. If it scares him off, and I doubt that is going to happen, you move on. I think he he is trying to get a feeling for what you think already. So talk to him. :)
