I love my boyfriend but I don't know how to say "I love you" to him. We have been dating for a month now and I think he feels the same way about me but he has never said "I love you". He calls me "my love" and stuff like that and I say that too, but thats different. How do I approach this conversation and say "I love you"?

Since he hasn't said it before, it will likely take him longer to say it. You can let him know how you feel without actually saying I love you. For example, "I love your personality" or "I love your smile" or "I love your sense of humor" changes the whole thing with just a couple of extra words. It's also more specific and less scary to a guy that hasn't been in love before.

You might know how you feel and want to express it, but he is more likely to be unsure and not want to express his feelings. Guys think being emotional is a sign of vulnerability for one, and the second they feel like the relationship is going to fast, they might just get scared and leave. I do not recommend saying I love you after only month. Most likely he'll be afraid of the commitment and it could make things weird for you.
