in Chit-Chat
Okay guys so I need help... in more than one way ( haha) I want to know what do you do when someone your JUST started dating tells you he loves you . You really like him but don't love him? This is my situation .....I don't want to hurt his feelings and really want to keep dating him but I can't lie and say I love him when I don't......

Any suggestions how to let him down easy and still date him?

    Tell him just that. You're not in love with him but still would like to date. You never know what the future holds.

    just tell him that you really like him and are interested in dating, but feel it's too early to say i love you...

    Similar thing happened to me.
    Thankfully since I left him an awkward pause, he brought it up later.... and I just told him that I thought he had said it too fast.
    Then the same thing happened again later.... only this time I didn't say it because it's just awkward... people in my family don't use the L word. Thankfully he brought it up this time too.

    But if your guy doesn't mention it, you should be the one to bring it up. Otherwise who know what he's thinking and stressing out over in his mind....

    time is irrelevant... there are thousands of people who are married many years from "love at first sight". The question is, if you feel such a strong connection, are you putting a timeframe to say it?

    Simple... tell him you just feel that it is too soon to be moving so fast.

    You should have just told me in person instead of asking MFP :(

    Baby just tell him the truth.
    You are NOT over me yet.
    We are still knocking the boots.
    Also tell him I appreciate him taking you out.
    It's cheaper on me.
