    Should I just walk away?

    Alright here is the background: I've been dating my boyfriend for almost 2 years. We met in college (he just graduated and I have a year left). We've gone through a lot of changes throughout our relationship (3 months into it he did an internship out of state for three months, I moved home for the summer and he got a job close by and moved to the same city, now I am moving back to school and he is going to be over an hour and a half away). I am nervous about moving because we are accustomed to seeing each other every other day or everyday. But I am willing to make the drive whenever I can.

    Now for the REAL dilemma: He has only told me he loves me once and it was during a fight.

    The fight happened when we had been dating for about a year and a half. I was hurt by the fact that he still hadn't said "I love you" and I told him I wasn't going to wait forever. (Un)Fortunately, however, you want to look at it, he decided to yell "I f***ing love you". Needless to say that has stuck with me and I constantly feel like I forced him to say something he didn't mean...It is now 6 months later and he has still not told me he loves me. I've tried to bring it up cautiously by saying "I can't keep asking for you to tell me you love me" and that "its not fair to want to tell you that I love you but not be able to". Still I've gotten nothing. I've been trying to forget about it and just live our life normally but every few months it sneaks back into my mind.

    Please help. Why won't he tell me he loves me?
    If he doesn't love me now, will he ever?

    I'm assuming you've told him you love him? Pestering someone to say those magic words are just about the best way to assure yourself you won't hear them.

    After 2 years if he doesn't love you, he probably won't. Thats the simple answer.

    So you harassed him until he said it, which didn't satisfy you (for obvious reasons), and now you're using passive-aggressive techniques to get him to say it again... will that satisfy you? Probably not, and with good reason.

    Yes, its time to walk away.
