How long does it take to fall in love?

I've been dating a great guy for 5 months, and recently he stated that he was concerned that he wasn't in love with me yet, but that he wanted to be. How long should it take to fall in love? Should we know already? I am not in love with him yet either, but I think that I could be and everything in our relationship so far has been fabulous. Is this a big deal? I think that good things come to those who wait??

tng21...

Sherry gave you some terrific advice in the previous post, but Pianoguy would like to add one small comment:

The more you can stay "IN LIKE" with somebody---the odds are better that you'll experience "TRUE LOVE" a lot longer!

Don't worry about the timetable between you 2...give your relationship together at least a year...okay?

Does anyone here know what it is like to be in love? How do you know? I don't think I was ever in love with my husband when we married, I think I was just dumb and naive. It was more like good friends. So how do you know when it is true love? I would love to hear someones love stories.
