I have met the most amazing man! I’m divorced for many years, and in my early 50s, he’s a tad older. He’s got it all, everything I’ve ever wanted, and he told me he’s in love with me (dating 3 months…too soon?) I am totally into him as I mentioned, but I don’t feel that lusty, crazy, infatuation type love that I felt in my last relationship (with a major loser!!) So my question is, can love grow into that all-consuming feeling of crazy love, or is a calm, slow growing love better, possible even? I realize at my age I should know the answer, but I don’t. And I don’t want to screw this up. He could be the best man I’ve ever known. Thank you for your help!

I feel like crazy infatuated love burns out fast. Its still too early to tell if you’ll reciprocate that love, give it more time.

Infatuation & love are two different things…
You were infatuated with a loser, that’s got to be a clue.

Recommend you look up the difference between “limerence vs. love” for some more information on this.
Agree with Khadija, healthy love takes time to develop, as you create a foundation of trust together. It may not be too early for him to say it, but it’s too early for you to know if you reciprocate yet and that’s perfectly okay.
