Abby, best is to stay ones natural self and to tell him what one truely feels. cheering love smitten wine
Abby, I'm not sure what to tell you but go with your gut feeling. I always wait until the man tells me. Best wishes! bouquet
Hi Abby
Wait until he tells you first. If you have reason to believe him and if you feel the same about him, you should tell him.

Of course your points are well taken, Abby. I just worry about how illusions can hurt us sometimes. "Chemistry" may have real roots for some. But it's often based on rank emfatuation(sp) and we all know how often THAT can go wrong over the long term.

There's no single 'good' answer to your question. Let's consider two extreme cases, anything in between being possible.

If a guy says he loves you, he might be inclined to declare this feeling rather lightly: if he feels attracted and is ready and inclined to start a relationship. Either he may be desperately in love with you and yet hopelessly waiting for the 'right circumstances' as to the how and when to declare his feelings.

In the former case, responding favourably to his 'L' word is an emotional trap, leading to a relation with little long term perspective. doh
In the latter your taking the lead may be a relief for your date and failing to do so might even jeopardize a relationship with life-time perspective. hug
