I (21F) dating a (24M) for 2 months and I think im in love but I'm scared
We met on Tinder 2 and a half months ago. We have an amazing connection, and we went on 5 dates, lasting 12+ hours each. We had sex on the 4th and 5th dates. He's really sweet and caring, very attracted to me and calls me "love" and "my baby." On our last date-which was my graduation day I was sad because he didn't get me a gift not even a small one but when we arrived at the apartment he was hiding a very beautiful bouquet of flowers that he picked according to a preference I had mentioned when we first talked it brought me to tears and I wanted to say "I love you" so bad but I just held it back. This is my second relationship my ex was cheating on me our entire relationship which caused me to have trust issues. But with this man I know that I actually love him and I'm scared that telling him now would be too fast. I prefer him saying it first but I also really want to say it it's been chewing my brain every time we talk or go on dates it's always there and it almost slipped many times. It's driving me insane. So how can I express this deep love for him without feeling like I'm moving too fast?.
