At what point did you realize you loved your significant other? Have you ever had someone say “I love you” and you didn’t say it back?
Men, how long does it usually take you to realize you love/are in love with someone?

3-5 seconds.
Totally depends on the people involved
Not really a time based thing, more like a relationship milestone thing.
Would it surprise you to learn it never happens before going all the way in the bedroom?
Took me two months.
When she lets me put it in her butt.
Typically about 2 to 3 months of frequent dating and contact. If I haven’t fallen in love in that timeframe it probably isn’t gonna happen.
For me it went in phases.
First date-2 months: “wow I have butterflies all the time around her” 2-4 months, wow I’m really falling for this girl I think this might be special. 4-6 months: I love you. 6months to 1 year: ok this is serious I think she may be the one I see a future with. 1-2 years: she is my ride or die nothings going to change and I’m very happy and grateful to have her in my life. 2-4 years: I am finding new ways to love you and my appreciation for you deepens greatly (proposed in this timeframe).
It was when she washed my hair (we were together about a month), and then i realized that she was the first person who ever took care of me since my mom.
I thought months-a year and then I met my current gf. Known her maybe 3 months.
>how long
~Two months of dates and chatting.
>What point
When she cried for me the first time. The compassion I felt was so intense that I would have fought the world in order to just hold her close.
>didnt say love back
Yes. A Friend With Benefits offered me to come along on a weekend trip to a different country. She invited and payed. It was fantastic and then out of nowhere when we were in bed and having sex she said “I love you”.
I was extremely surprised. This came out of nowhere. We kissed and we continued. I was overwhelmed and confused. A month later I tried talking about it but she denied it even happening. She broke it off soon after.
I suggested that we try dating romantically, but she declined.
Fall in Love, about 4 months or longer.
It took me 1 1/2 months from the day I met her to the day I fell in love with her.
About 6 months after we break up.
