    Been with my gf about 3 months...we're fab together..have done the 'I'm mad about you' bit and the 'I've fallen for you' bit..

    We're not young (been there done that.divorced, kids etc.) we've even spoken of our long term future...and all looks good :-)

    Is it too early to say 'I love you'...cos believe me I do !!!

    No - my OH told me at about 7 weeks - I was chuffed (and felt the same) and thankfully he has told me that every day since too... If you know, you know....

    The Mrs. and I took less than a week. Still together almost 10 years later and going strong.

    Though I'm sure most people would consider saying it so soon to be an act of desperation which is kind of sad really. It's one of those things that are self-perpetuating, people are afraid to say it because they think it will frighten off their OH.

    As said above, when you know, you know. The obvious fear is that she might not feel the same way, or might feel that things are moving too soon. Is she ready to hear it? Only you can be the judge of that. At some point you are going to have to take the risk. I don't think 3 months is too short at all.

    Best of luck and hope it works out well for you.
