Me and my girlfriend of a week and 1 day just got done txting and i ended with...

lol thats funny babe. alright well imma let you go talk to u tomorrow goodnight

and she responded with...

goodnight and sweet dreams babe love u lots!...(Thats the first time shes told me she loves me.)

Its that im not sure if I feel the same way so I didnt txt back and she resent me the same msg again. i know she wants me to respond but idk. Should i? its just that i hear that the word love means alot to girls and idk i just dont know if i feel the same way.

Wow man, 8 days and she's busting out the "love" already? It's true, a lot of the time it means everything to a girl, but this early in a relationship is never a good time to use it. Personally, I would just talk to her in person and explain that while you're really into her, you just don't want to throw around the word so easily otherwise it will mean LESS after a few months. If you want to just delay it or something, you could always reply back with a heart or somethin..

You're reading too far into that particular one. Love u lots and "i love you" are two drastically different statements. Just don't respond to it if you find it uncomfortable.

^ I think replying back with a heart is a good alternative for texting.

You don't want to just blurt out the word too soon, it's a major factor for power in a relationship. However, I wouldn't bring up the incident or have a personal talk. Girls throw the word "love" around a lot, I don't know your entire conversation and relationship, but I don't think it was a big deal when she said it.

If you honestly don't feel that way or you're not sure then you should wait for her to say "I love you so much Magdiel, do you love me?" And then tell her how important she is to you (betters your life etc.) then tell her you just like her a lot. Don't make her put pressure on you if you want to stay interested, nothing's worse than somebody trying to make you love them.

No I know she wanted me to respond back because she only sends me things twice when she wants me to reply and whenever she's always just said goodnight and sweet dreams when we ended our conversation and I would never reply back after that. Today is the first day shes said love you lots and she even resent me the same txt again which means that she wanted me to reply back.

Be firm and say "I'd rather we wait on that" or w/e. Don't feel pressured, you're the man remember? You need to draw lines NOW before she takes things too far.

Bang on, girls say "love you lots" to their fucking friends for god sake

Relax dude

And here I was thinking people got into relationships because they cared for each other...

uh if she says it over the phone or in rl then i would worry about wether or not to say it back otherwise just chillax lol, and why ask us if you should say it back? only you can decide wether you love her. if your looking at it from a completly cold stratigic point of view then it might possibly be too early, however if shes willing to commit before you to saying it then its probably fine to say it back if you want to commit to her
