I haven't posted much at all about my situation, primarily because everything has been going absolutely awesome with my girlfriend.

We met thru okcupid, hit it off first date and have been in contact every day since. She only lives about 10 blocks from me so we see each other at least 4-5 times a week. We've been together almost 2 months but we've spent so much time together it feels like a lot longer.

Everything is perfect with this girl, she likes me for who I am, she's respectful and kind, she's smart and can take of herself, she's very giving, thoughtful, she's gorgeous, has a smokin bod and the sex is amazing every single time. The best thing about her is our communication. We've both been open and honest about everything and we never run out of things to talk about. We really do feel comfortable talking about anything even this early in the relationship.

She asked me a question last night while we were almost asleep: "Do you think you could see yourself falling in love with me?" I definitely like her a ton and I haven't been in many relationships in the past 7 years (only 1 really and I wasn't that into her) so I don't know at what point it's acceptable to feel so strongly about someone. I definitely see marriage potential in this girl, and I didn't know what to say, so I said "yes I could see that happening". She said the next morning "hey just forget about what I said, ok?" I said it was fine. I know there's no right or wrong answer here and maybe I'm just getting this off my chest as it threw me off guard. She has mentioned to me while being intimate in the past that she's "falling for me" but I don't know how serious it was or what context to take it into account at the time.

I guess I'm looking for some random thoughts on this. Is it too early for her to be asking this? Should I take this as a red flag or is it natural to fall in love with someone in just a couple months?

I think everything's cool.

She really likes you, just probably doesn't want you to feel pressured or scared off by her comment.

No red flag here. You guys are doing just fine in my opinion and a couple of months is long enough.

You just failed the test... That wasn't the actual question.

She's a smart girl - I don't blame her for asking. Look at it from her point of view, you are taking up a lot of her time and she's basically taken herself off the market for you. She has a right to know it your feelings are going in the right direction at this point.

What are you so afraid of? She sounds awesome, don't you want to hold on to her?

if you waited for answering, she probably thought that you're lying so she became upset and said forget about it.

I'm not sure why you don't love her but that's 100% something you and only you can feel. DO NOT say it unless you mean it or you'll regret it forever.

I fell in love with my wife faster that that so it's not too soon. What are your reservations?

I agree. Cdubs, only you know whether her question might mean, "Do you love me?" and maybe, "I want to hear you say it." Some girls fish, some don’t, and you probably have an idea whether she is the type or not.

It sounds like you care for her a lot, even if it's maybe not love yet. I see no harm in being extra reassuring in case she is unsure of how you feel at this point. Extra affection and something spontaneous like flowers would be good.
