Do not be worried. My boyfriend was the first to say it. It took me a few more months to say it back. I wanted to be sure I felt the same and could truly trust him with my heart. As a girl, it is not something I say lightly.
I don't think you should be worried that much...I mean once my boyfriend told me that and I felt the exact same way but I was too afraid to say it I don't know you though...it took me a while to say it back

First time a guy told me that I couldn't respond for several months. Unfortunately, I just felt pressured to lie to save the relationship. There was too much stress on a couple of words.

If she isn't acting differently towards you now, you shouldn't be worried necessarily, just be cautious until she is ready to say it back. You don't want to freak her out.
I don't think you should be worried. Sometimes it doesn't need to be said. If you tell her you love her and she looks in your eyes and maybe squeezes your hand it could mean she feels the same. Or maybe just giving you a slight hug and looking at you could mean that she feels the same
NO! Don't force her to be in a place she isn't. When you say you love her and expect something back you are really not telling her you love her because you do (although you might love her). You are really looking for a confirmation of an insecurity. My wife and I regularly tell each other we lover each other, but rarely as a response to the other person. I tell my wife I love her because I do lover her and when she tell me I take it in and enjoy it for what it is.
Love should be offered unconditionally. I may be wrong but my gut feeling is that you may have said it with the expectation that she will express it at that moment to you as well which isn't right.
Many times a relationship develops at two different paces for the individuals. One falls quicker in love while the other needs to have some time to come to grips with it. Whatever the case, if you are both comfortable in the relationship and happy, don't put too much emphasis on words.
I believe I love you should only be said if you truly mean it and feel it. I love my boyfriend, but there are times, he would say, "i love you", but...

Describe your ideal first date; Where do you go? What do you wear? How does the date end?
I would invite you to my flat and let you taste my delicious home cooked food. Probably something exotic, like Thai food. After dinner in candlelight I would play and sing by the piano and hopefully we sing together and just have fun. Then we would go for a walk under the full moon, talking about life. I would walk you home, leave you outside your door, and give you a kiss on your cheek...
Afterwards..what will your date know about you?
A lot. I hope that you will know how caring I am, what good humor I have, how much I care about people around me. I also wish that you think I am smart, intelligent, artistic and a all over jolly guy.
