And do you think it's a red flag if a man says it somewhat early on? Every relationship is different, but still.

No. My guy told me ILY after 1 month together. I waited at least one more month.

No red flags there, he is fantastic, he just fall and wasnt scared of showing it cause im a warm-open person and he felt comfortable enough to tell me.

Every case is different

Emotions are funny that way.... its different for everyone.

If he expressed his love for you with good intentions and honesty, he is being forward with his feelings. For some guys, expressing emotions is difficult as we've been conditioned to suppress them. So this could be a good indication.

On the other hand, you should be able to express your feelings to him as well. If should feel free to say that you are not ready yet or you feel he is moving too quickly, he should be mature enough to accept that answer....

I said it back actually and meant it. Also, he had a few drinks, so I hope it was genuine. It was only a few months in.

We are a little slower than some.

Known each other 26 years, started talking in September, dating in february, became a couple a few weeks ago and just said we loved each other today.

I am pretty sure I have loved him since I was about 12.

My husband told me he loves me almost 2 months of seeing each other. I didn't believe it coz he was really trying to get in my pants that day. He of course didn't get in my pants that day. He did the next week, though.

Less than a month....but it was the right time.....but we were also married 5 months after we met.

It's not always a red flag, buy it can be said too soon sometimes.

Some people know right away. I think my husband and I had been dating for about a month before he accidentally blurted it out. My ex said it after a 2-3 months - accidentally as well. I knew right away and could have told them after a few weeks but I waited because I didn't want to scare them off!
