Will my girlfriend fall in love with me ever? We've been together for 7 months already. I know I'm in love with her. My rule of thumb for telling a girlfriend "I love you" is for me to fall in love with her and she telling me. That way, I dont have any chance of freaking her out since I know I told my ex girlfriend I love you and she freaked out. Is that a good way to tell my girlfriend I love her?

You can't base every relationship on the previous one. If it has been 7 months, then I think it is safe to say it. If she doesn't feel the same way, then I have no idea why she is still dating you. My boyfriend and I were in love with each other after one month. There is no set time span, honestly.

Understand that girls and guys don't react quite the same when it comes to relationships. Seven months is normally a lengthy amount of time for a girl to wait before already saying or showing how they feel if they are serious about you. She may be just taking it slow because she's been burned in relationships in the past or she may not really feel that strongly about you yet. In my past experience, if I dated a woman for seven months and I was ready to commit I sit her down and have a talk with her about how I feel. Honesty is the best policy. If you don't tell her, she isn't going to read your mind and find out. What's the worst that can happen? If she been dating you for seven months, she evidently feels something for you by now or she would have given you the boot already. The old saying goes, "Nothing tired, Nothing gained."

Don't play games. If you love the woman tell her. She may love you back. Don't base what you're current girlfriends possible reaction could be on what your Ex did...they are two different women. Love is serious and not to be taken lightly. Love is a risk. Put yourself out there and take a chance.

There is an old saying that says that you can lead a horse to water but you can not make him drink. The same is true for love..you can want to love someone so much but you can not make your heart feel something that it does not. It sounds to me that you wear your heart on your sleeve..don't get me wrong this is not a bad thing but some people are not as open as you are about their feelings. Be patient and let things happen as they will. Good luck

You're to worried, don't rush love. if it really is love, give it time, eventually it will happen and she'll say it, or if you really are in love, then tell her, you shouldn't be afraid of her being freaked out if you think she loves you. If you have a rule, as you say, for telling a girl you love her, you obviously have experience, wait until you think the time is right

I have been married for four years and my husband still isn't in love with me. In fact, I once asked him if he would ever love me the way he loved his ex and he answered " some day i will". You can't make someone love you. either it is there or it isn't. and some people just aren't good at saying how they feel either, so that could be the issue here.

As far as I'm concerned....7 months is more than enough time for her to know how she feels about you. You should ask her, that way, if she doesn't have those feelings for you, you won't have to waste anymore time.
Good luck.
