Boyfriend might have accidentally said 'I love you'.

When I last saw my b/f, he hugged me so tight I couldn't breathe. During our hug, he slipped and said those three words, 'I love you'. We were only hugging, not kissing and not having sex. I know some men like to say that during the heat of passion but were only hugging. After he said it, he had this look on his face like 'what did I do?'. He looked dumbfounded and was about to correct himself until I said 'Naw you can't take it back!' and we started laughing. We've only been dating for a month and I really like him a lot.

Even though it looked like he wanted to take it back should I believe that he really likes me and that he has my best interests at heart? It is hard for me to trust him and he even has told me that he didn't trust me. Should I take his expression as an innocent slip or should I knock the wall down and let him in? Did he mean it when he said it even though it looked like he slipped?
