If a guy asks a girl "Do you love me"?

hey everyone,
I've been dating this guy for some weeks now and yesterday we had another date
, spent the night together (nothing sexual) but talked , laughed, hugged, kissed. had pillow fights till 3am..
well today morning he asked me "Do you love me"?
what does this sort of question mean? because i learned that guys rather show through actions when they love a girl rather than telling this..
though he told me he liked me but in my oppinion it sounded like he only liked me as a friend..
i mean i start to really like him / falling for him cuz he's the kind of guy i was looking for all the time but im scared that he might just consider me as friend after all. i mean he asked me lots of personal questions including what i look for in a relationship and how a partner for me should be... ?
