I've been dating my boyfriend for almost 2 years. We live together and everything is great, but he has never said he loves me. Instead of saying I love you, he'll say he has a ton of affection or something like that. He has started talking about marriage, but I can't marry someone who has never said that he loves me. I don't know what to do. I know he does, but I don't know why he can't say it.

Have you asked him why he doesn't says it? After 2 years of dating you should have enough confidence to ask him that important question. Based on his answer you decide if you want to keep this relationship alive.

You say you KNOW he loves you, so why don't you look more at HOW you know that he does? So what if he hasn't SAID it, what do his actions tell you? Stop and look at how he treats you, and be happy. You are obviously not ready to be marrying this man if you can't look past the fact that he just hasn't said, "I love you". Do you think anything will change or get better just because he SAYS that??

Open your eyes to what he says NON verbally.
