I was in the same boat as you with my ex, we said 'I love you' after a few weeks, he said it first. We then spent a year together, which was amazing (apart from the breakup of course), and when I first said it, I meant it as I love being with him, which later turned into being in love with him. I wouldn't worry about going into meaning too much, you're obviously doing something right. She's been open about her past which suggests that she doesn't want to make the same mistakes again. If you continue to worry about it, maybe talk to her about it, like she has with you. Tell her that she doesn't have to say such big words, or maybe say something like, 'I love spending time with you rather than 'I love you' if you're unsure. I don't think someone would say something like that just to be nice, especially if she was the first to say it. Good luck.
