I believe you love her as a person, but I don't think you're in love.
You've known her for six months and you're not in a relationship. I think you're most likely infatuated with her and fascinated with the idea of being with a woman for the first time. You haven't spent enough time together to develop real, deep, enduring romantic love. What you're describing sounds like new relationship butterflies.
Do you have many close female friends? Is it possible you're conflating this intense emotional connection with romance because you haven't had a friend this close as an adult?
Yeah I'm currently just trying to see almost what I can get away with and see what happens but I worry if I have the totally wrong idea I may end up just making things awkward and straining the relationship between us or cause us to drift apart
Why would you want to?
Basically casual and serious resp.
