Is it normal that my boyfriend hasn't told me he loves me?

My boyfriend an I have been dating for almost 7 months and he still hasn't told me he loves me and I haven't met one person in his family. I really love him. He makes me happy most of the time and I feel like I can never make him happy. He's such a negative person, but everything else about him is absolutely fantastic. We don't even have any pictures together. I don't know what to do :( please help.

    Sounds like he's married to me and doesn't want and proof about you.

    Seven months may be too soon for him to say it and mean it, especially if you two are young.
    Try spending more time with him so you can take pictures together, meet his family, and ask him why he acts the way he does ( negatively ).
    Good luck!

    Lol, we're 17 and still in high school. I doubt he's married. But it bothers me not so much that he hasnt said I love you, but that I haven't met any of his family or taken any pictures. I've talked to him about it. And he just doesn't say much. We don't go to the same school, but we do see each other like three to times a week. Im so upset and bothered by this, I almost dont know if the relationship is worth it...

    I think he might be married too. It's not like the only issue is that he's not saying "I love you" to her, she hasn't met his family and they don't have any pictures! Come on guys, that's not normal.

    You should confront him about it, it's not normal. You deserve better than that.

    It's stranger to me you've never met any family after 7 months. Does he live far away or have little contact with them?

    Saying 'I love you' is so scary and it means something different to everyone you meet. Some people may say it really easily and a lot because it doesn't seem like a big deal. It could be a big thing for him, or maybe he doesn't realize that you may need to him to say it, because he might feel he shows it. I think you should talk to him about it. Ask him what the word 'love' means to him, but may be don't ask him straight out if he loves you, he may feel pressured to say it, or be offended if you do. Hope that's helpful? My boyfriend and I didn't say it to each other for a year, and it felt good when we did because we knew we really meant it.
