I am 23. My boyfriend "Chad" is 33. We are very compatible, want the same things out of life & have already predicted that we will be together for the long haul. However, he's never said the L word. And I'm not sure how long I should wait. I've already said it (sort of), & never again because I felt rejected by his unreciprication.
We've been together 8 months. I have a 3 year old son, - my boyfriend adores him, & treats him like his own kid. I was engaged to my son's dad, and was verbally abused. We ended badly. My boyfriend is divorced, his wife cheated on him & they divorced two years ago after 4 years of marriage. I realize he may have some hesitation about being with someone after going through something like that. But I find it difficult to be with him, have sex, live in his house, cook meals, do laundry, etc - having not heard that yet. It just doesn't make sense.
I don't want to be impatient, but I don't want to get hurt. How long should I wait?
