so there is this girl but I've been talking to and seeing for about 3 weeks now, she and I have connected really well, instantly

we talk and text a lot and always tell each other that we missed each other and call 1 another baby, I was texting her today and she was telling me that she had some spare time and wanted to spend it with me

last week I took her out to a very romantic dinner here in las vegas it cost me over 100 dollars but she said it was the most romantic evening she had ever had

the hostess even called us love birds and said we were really cute as we were leaving, now normally I also don't spend so much money on just 1 dinner but I really feel strongly about this girl and it was worth it

but she says she wants to take things slow even though there is obvious romantic feelings between us, and I'm not going to lie I'm completely smitten ive fallen for this girl very hard very quickly

she attends a paul mitchell school, and I set myself a hair appointment so I could see her as a surprise. I even wrote her a poem which I'm going to give her tomorrow, and I want to tell her that I love her but I'm not sure what do you guys think?

I know that I'm gonna get some very negative responses from a lot of you because I know I'm not the most popular guy here in this forum but oh well it is what it is

Life's too short to worry about what could have been. Just do it & see where it goes. If its meant to be, its meant to be. (Never thought I'd hear myself say that)

If I were you I would take things slow. The last thing you want to do is scare her away.
I would secretly love her in ways besides saying I love you, until you felt she was ready for those words.

If you play it cool and just focus on having fun, then nothing can go wrong (unless she gets bored so don't do that either), find the balance. If you say you love her to soon, she will think your needy and you may lose her.

Sadly women are extremely unforgiving when it comes to red flags or mistakes. They will simply dump you and move on. And why not? They have a million other potential relationships. Show her the best you got, calmly and light hearted. Let her come to you, thats when you know its time.

Good luck.

I'm not suggesting that you don't love her after 3 weeks, it's very possible, especially if you believe in love at first sight.

I think maybe it's a little soon to tell her tho.

You may just want to keep your sentiments in check for a bit, just so's you don't come across as creepy.
What you describe in your post could be taken as romantic, but could also seem a little creepy and obsessive.

If she wants to take it slow, then let her take it slow.
That suggests to me that she isn't quite "that into you" yet, and isn't so sure. Give her time.

No. That is infatuation. If in 6 months to year you still feel the same it may be something more

She said she wants to take it slow. She is not ready for those 3 little words.

Since she told you she wants to take it slow you need to refrain from telling her that you love her. Give her flowers, have more romantic dinners, stroll in the park, and do things that show you care, but do not tell her you love her yet. Using those three words so early on in the relationship could scare her away or make her uncomfortable. You've got plenty of time, slow down, and enjoy the relationship as it unfolds. She may be a keeper, but only time will tell. Best wishes.

Three weeks is probably too soon. Be romantic. Do wonderful things for and with her. Spend more time with her.

Wait until that first rush of physical infatuation subsides a bit. Then, if you still feel the same way, the time will be right.
