Today, my boyfriend of over a year finally told me he loved me. This revelation was quickly followed by "at least, I think this is how people feel when they say that." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, my boyfriend told me that he loved me for the first time in a way I'll never forget. In fact, his exact words were, "You're not the only one that I love." FML
The language of love
Today, my boyfriend told me he loves me. Instead of saying it back, I had a panic attack. FML
Great timing
Today, I finally got the courage to tell my boyfriend that I love him. We've been dating almost a year and in a few days we will be moving into the same apartment building and attending the same college. He said, "I'm sorry, I don't feel the same way." FML
Today, I told my boyfriend I loved him. He responded by fist pumping. FML
Today, I finally told my girlfriend of four months that I love her. Her response was, "Uh... thanks?" FML
Today, I finally had the guts to tell my best friend that I like him more than just as a friend. I was about to tell him when he excitedly told me that he met the love of his life yesterday. FML
Today, for the first time ever, my boyfriend of one year told me he loved me. He was calling me by collect call from the county jail. FML
Seize the day
Today, a guy that I've been friends with for almost 20 years, and for whom I have never shown even the slightest bit of romantic interest in, confessed his love for me. In front of everyone we know, at mine and my fiancé's engagement party. FML
It's the thought that counts…
Today, I finally had a man say, "I love you" to me in a sincere tone. It was a customer, who was high, over the phone. I said it back. FML
Today, I told my girlfriend I love her for the first time. She said, "Thanks." FML

So what? This isn't an FML. If this is the first time he's been in love how the hell WOULD he know what it really feels like? Stop being so goddamn sensitive about it.

nah don't worry about it, he was probably not meaning it the way you interpreted it - some people aren't good with words at such moments

Well this is not and FML. He thinks he is in love with you. If this is the first time he's been in love, then how would he know for sure what it feels like. If you love him back, be happy :]

that's gooodd! it might have sounded mean but it just means he takes the phrase "i love you" seriously, so he wants to make sure he really means it when he says it. its a compliment to you

Sounds like he's just being honest. Just be wary if he starts talking about terminating John Conner...

Uh that's not really an fml, because it's not such a bad thing that he said that.

Good God woman, what is wrong with you? Do expect some cinema romantic-comedy proposal? He 'finally' told you that he loved you? As if it were required? "Ohmygoshohmygosh he said he luvs me!!!!!!!" Grow up. Realistically, love can be a very tricky thing at the best of times, and barely more than a fancy high-minded ideal. So respect his emotions, respect his judgment, and respect the term 'love'. Now that you mention it, your life IS ******. You're stuck in the mind of a 13-year-old early-pubescent habitually-spoilt self-centred airhead with a grossly inflated sense of entitlement. I am disgusted. At least, I think this is how people feel when they say that.

What you take away from this kinda depends on your boyfriend's character. If he's generally pretty reserved and shy, then don't take it to be a bad thing - that sort of thing can be a really big deal to some people, and they aren't going to treat the subject lightly. If this is the case, and he really hasn't ever been in love before, you can't really blame him for being tentative about it. On the other hand, it could be that he's one of those selfish jerks who tends to manipulate women for his own personal gains. If he's pretty outgoing and gregarious, and especially if he has a history of being something of a womanizer, this is probably the more likely scenario. Obviously I don't know your boyfriend, so I can't say which one is true. I'm inclined to believe it's most likely the former scenario...hopefully I'm right :)
