I have been dating a lady for 7 months. We are very happy together and are compatible in many ways. Because of the hurts from past relationships, she holds herself back emotionally, but her actions show that she has strong feelings for me. I, too, have been hurt by past betrayals but I refuse to let that affect me going forward, so I don't hold myself back.
I have fallen in love with this lovely lady but I have never said that to her. If I say it to her, I don't think that she will say the same thing back to me. I don't want her to feel pressured to say it but I do want her to be reassured that my feelings for her are deep and I do not see any future for myself that does not include her.
Should I tell her that I love her, should I continue to tell her that I have very strong feelings for her, or should I "shut up" about my feelings?
