Confused about love. please help me

Hey everyone I desperately need some help!!I'm 15 and there's this boy who I've really liked since I met him which to be honest wasn't that long ago. He's became one of my best friends really quickly, and last night I found out he liked me too. I haven't seen him since he told me, but I've been texting him and I just spoke to him on msn. He told me he loves me. I had thought i might be falling in love with him but thought I was just being stupid. Can you be in love without being with them?maybe I just love him as a friend. I don't know. please help me. Am I too young to be in love?I know I've never felt this way about anyone before and he's moving to spain in 5 months. i cna't imagine my life without him. Do I love him?I'm so confused.

You're never too young to be in love, though it is quite rare to find honest love at your age. I think that you should talk to him about your feelings, and I mean just talk. Don't let things go any further than that, relationships based on the physical are not usually loving or nurturing ones. Yes, you can be in love with someone without being with them. If you do think that you are in love, and he does move, you will get over it. It will take time and it will be painful, but remember, there are more great guys out there in the world just waiting to find a girl just like you.

Best of luck

Thanks for your advice. This isn't just physical though. I hardly noticed him at first. We were introduced through friends, and became really close before I even realised I wanted to be with him. He is the most amazing person I've ever met.

also, if I do love him, and tell him, I feel like it'll make it more real and then it will hurt more when he goes. I don't know if I can start a relationship with him, knowing exactly when it will have to end

This goes to the age old question: "Is it better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all?" You must answer this question for yourself, and when you get the answer, you will know what to do.

I'm running out of time to find the answer! Thanks though. I think I need to tell him I'm falling in love with him

Just be sure that you know for sure what you are going to get yourself into. Losing someone you love is very hard. I'm not trying to deter you from your course, just trying to help you realize the path you've chosen.

I've always believed that if you love someone, tell them you do....

How would you feel if they died, or you died tomorrow and you never go the chance to tell them how you felt? You would feel so bad.

Even if it doesn't last forever, tell them how you feel, you'll end up regreting it in the end.

Hey there, only you will know whether you love him or not. No one can really answer that for you. I certainly do not think you are too young to fall in love. I believe people can fall in love at any age. Maybe you just need more time to figure out for yourself whether you really do love him or not. You should tell him how you feel about him and see what happens from there. And yes, I believe you can be in love with someone without being with them because I loved this boy for 2years and never got with him. I know I was in love with him because I just thought the world of him. I couldn't live without him. Couldn't stop thinking about him etc. Wish you the best of luck. xx Hope this helps xx
