It has only been 6 weeks...and he says he LOVES me!

My boyfriend and I have only been together for 6 1/2 weeks and last weekend he told me that he was In LOVE with me! I care about him very much. We see each other just about every day. But I feel like it is still too early to determine between Love and Lust.

Is it possible that he really is in love with me after such a short time? I haven't said it back. He knows that I care about him and said that he knows I will say it when I am ready.

If you have been in this kind of situation I would love some advise! By the way, I am 23 and he is 30. He has only ever told 1 other person that he loved her.
