So I've been with my boyfriend for almost 3 years, we live together, and we have a 1yr old. I seriously am not sure that he really loves me. He tells me that he loves me, but the way he acts is different from how he used to act with me. I did tell him about how I feel but he gets mad at me and says that my complaining is bothering him.
I know that I love him more than he loves me. I used to know that he loves me. I used to know that he loved me more. But now, I just don't know if he truly loves me..shouldn't I know? How is a man suppose to act after 3yrs in a relationship? Is he just comfortable? Why did he change? Am I just being paranoid or insecure?

Children change the dynamics of a couple's relationship, but this doesn't have to mean they don't love each other. Love isn't a contest, so it shouldn't be a matter of who loves more. I think the greater question should be: Do you love you? I think the first year of a child's life is the most challenging -- maybe especially for men, so I hope for a good family life for all of you in the coming days.

How does he act that makes you question his love? You said he "changed" ~ in what way? If he tells you that he loves you, why do you question it?

How do you know he used to love you more?

After 3 years you do get "used to" each other, and you won't have the same infatuated feeling you have in the first 6 months. that is love maturing.

you also have a child now so both of your attention is drawn to the child instead of just to each other as it used to be. That changes a relationship.
