I'm totally in love with my girlfriend of several years now but we have never told each other that we love each other. I think she's been waiting for me to say it first and so I haven't been sure whether to say it or not. I don't want to turn her off by saying it. Also, I'm not sure if she's in love with me or if we've just been going out these several years. I'm wondering if I should tell her that I love her or if it will turn her off. I'm not sure.
I don't understand how you could be with someone for years and not be in love with them. I think you should tell her and if she doesn't love you back then you should stop going out and quit wasting your life on someone who doesn't feel the same for you.
I think there's a good chance she could be waiting for you to say it. But even if she doesn't say it back, it doesn't mean the feeling can't develop in the future. If she's been with you that long already she must at least like you a whole lot.
I think that you should tell her, if she loves you back she will say it. If she doesn't love you back and if you do scare her off then you don't need to be with her anyway. You need to find someone who shares the same feelings as you.
I can't imagine going several years with a person without saying that. Yeah, you should tell her. For sure. If she doesn't love you, at least you'll probably find out and finally know where you stand. And if she does love you and is just waiting for you to say it, she'll be ecstatic. I can't see how you saying it could possibly turn her off.
Just curious, is this your first long term relationship?
I know there's the old random, "I love you," but sometimes I think it's used to much and doesn't mean as much as it should, so how do you really tell...

What is your favorite outfit for a night out with friends?
I usually wear some low rise jeans, a band t-shirt, and a pair of converses. If it's cold I put on a black hoodie.
How do you style your hair and do your make-up?
I usually straighten my hair and wear it down. Sometimes I put my hair up in a bun.
I don't usually wear make-up. But on the off chance that I do, I outline my eyes in black eyeliner and draw stars or hearts on the outside of my eyes. I smear a little white eye-shadow at corners of my eyes. And I wear black mascara.
