Welp! He said the L word to me, what do I do?

We met through an app and have been talking for some days (exactly, only days!)

And yesterday and we were chatting he suddenly said he thinks he loves me already. And today, he just sent me a message saying he loves me...

My thoughts?

Well, I think he probably doesn't know what love is to be saying it to me so early on... But he's probably not playing with me as he doesn't have the profile of a player.

I don't know what to say to him, he's being so straightforward

Once when I was young I got the best advice I ever had. It was about a relationship as well. I was told if I could sop talking to them for one week and at the end of that week I felt the same way about them then I should pursue it. needless to say it didn't work out for me. First when I told her that she got really upset. And after the first day of not talking she had another guy she was talking to and soon going with. Not long after they were going together and not very long after were married and she was pregnant and soon divorced after that.

One week may or may not be long enough for you, it was for me. The point is if you stop and take a breath you may find it is moving to fast for the wrong reason...

Good luck with it and if you want to talk you can message me anytime.

He is just saying this to try to have sex. How old is he? Please do not be offended but he may be lying about his age and he is prob masturbating a lot thinking about "what if" (yes all younger guys do it often but will never admit it. Do u want to meet him IRL?

He's 18, one year older than me.
And well, he was talking about meeting up and planning to go to an arcade together...
Should I be worried?

[summiter]

I would not be worried yet. Meet in a public place, be honest and see how it goes. I'm sure sex is on his mind but take it slow

He’s a hormonal teen who doesn’t know what the heck to do with both his emotions. There’s no way he should be saying I love you in a only a few days. Maybe he likes you a lot, but love? Run for the hills.

[Izzy_3991]

Run. It's a red flag.
Nothing like good old love bombing 😂

[BarryLiverstone]

How old is he? He may not have much experience.

[Asker]

He's 18. But yeah, he told me he doesn't have that much experience

[BarryLiverstone]

Ya then I wouldn’t worry about it. Just talk to him and see what happens over time

[BarryLiverstone]

Unless you don’t like him?

[Asker]

Okkie dokkie, thanks.
Well, I still am not sure about my feelings for him as everything was just so fast...
But yeah, I'm sure I like him as a person and as a friend at least.
