Apparently there are some good people out here now, so...
I almost dropped the "L" word on the gf for the first time a couple of nights ago, and in hindsight, wish I would have. It was a very good/positive emotional moment. Question: should I wait for another similar moment or does it matter? Can I drop it out of the blue and still have a positive effect? I have told women I love them before (and thought I meant it), but have never felt anything close to what I feel for her now and want to get this right.
And before anyone accuses me of alterior motives, I want to say I really am falling in love with her and I am as convinced as I can be that she is with me. I am not exactly scared, but definitely a little gunshy.

I am not looking for encouragement. She is so fiercely proud of being independent that I don't want to infringe on that or scare her. It is ridiculous, but she could be the one scared off by those three little words, but I want her to know all the same. And I really want to hear those words reciprocated.

the best part about saying i love you when you really mean it is that it can be any time. it can be as you are rolling over for a goodnight kiss, or first thing in the morning (morning breath/hair and all!) she will be so excited that you are at that level, she doesn't need an intense moment to share it. she wants to love you back all the time. good luck! i'm jealous, id like to be in love.

well maybe what is making you hesitate is the key....when you are so sure of something, there is no such thing as gunshy......you might be afraid that she doesnt feel the same way, and then u would be hurt,......when you fall in love with someone and they with you, it is something you both KNOW.......you dont need a special moment....it is understood....and it comes naturally.......personally, there is something missing here, and i think you already know what i am talking about.

There is no time like the present. Send her some flowers,asking her out on a date, set up the mood and tell her. She will never forget that moment ever!!

Telling a woman you love her (the romantic version) is sick and phony, in my opinion that I'm entitled to have under Freedom of Speech.
The only other thing I can say is: YUK!

Just talk about falling in love, in conversation. Then you can see her views on the matter.

Tell her how you feel and go from there and hey say what you feel and do not worry it will be ok, you know how you feel and you tell the one you love just how much you love them.
