<human>: Summarize the given text in a few sentences.

My bf and I have had an amazing, loving relationship for over a year. However, we haven't said I love you even though we do make tentative plans for the future. He says that he's "almost there" regarding the I love you thing, since he takes it more seriously than just an infatuation-based feeling.

Should I have known by now whether or not he's someone I want to make a long term commitment to? Should he know? Should we be able to tell each other we love each other? Neither of us are big on verbal affection - he rarely says a thing, and I say affectionate things sometimes. (He is much more an actions person than a words person - and I know through his actions how much he cares about me.) He's rather spontaneous and a bit of a last-minute planner. I am not; I like to know where things stand.

Am I freaking out over nothing? Will time reveal all? Am I just having pointless anxiety and over-worrying? Help appreciated. Thanks
