No and no. When my husband and I were dating it took us almost a year to say the "L" word...it didn't mean we didn't feel it, it's just that neither one of us were ready to go there yet.

When I was dating my now husband, I told him first. His actions made me feel as if he loved me but wouldn't say. Don't remember how much longer after I said it when he professed his own love for me, but it was a while. I would imagine anyone would leave if the man doesn't say it after a while. There is no right or wrong amount of passing time before leaving. The decision is up to the woman. Is he worth the wait?

His actions speak louder than any word ever could or would, so NO I wouldn't leave, because I'd already know.

Yes, he needs to tell me. But if he is extremely shy--you can see it in their actions. Men are about actions! That is how they tell you they love you! Pay close attention.

Okay. Personal experience here. My ex and I dated for years. We never said we loved each other. I was the first person to say it after ONE YEAR. The heart crushing thing is. He never said it back. I thought the same way thinking that I don't NEED to hear it for...everything he does for me is proof enough. But...after three years and one big fight. Right before I walked out he said He loved me...but by then it was already too little too late. I need to hear it now. I've wasted years of my life assuming that he does.
