silly question, but it's bugging me

I'm second guessing what I just did. I have someone in my life, and we've been together for a short time, yet have seen each other several days of the week for the past 6 weeks.

He mentioned a few weeks ago, that he almost put "in a relationship", on his Facebook. I told him we should talk more. We have. I've told him the important things I think he should know, and I do feel trust and love. The other night though, my hearing isn't great, and I thought he said he loved me but he was saying he needed to go. I said I love you. He said he loved me too. But now I'm wondering... earlier he said "i think I'm falling for you'... is that different than saying i love you? I don't know. I just put on facebook that I'm in a relationship and then instead of just waiting to see if he's okay with it I skyped him and told him. He seemed shocked a bit. Now I'm wondering if I should have waited for him to make that step.

I don't want to over think all this. It isn't a big deal, right? He said I love you again to me, and later he put it on his page. But did I push him into it?
He has told me that he's my boyfriend... that i have him. But he's also said, we will see how this goes, because that's what I keep saying to him.

Someone tell me if I did a stupid thing .. or if this is normal. What do most people do?

Seems like normal steps in getting in a relationship. I don't see nothing wrong with what you or he are doing. If he wasn't into you or didn't care, you wouldn't be able to push him.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. Everyone is different.

Me, I'm uber private and don't mention my relationship status on social media. Then again, I tell everyone they'll meet my husband after we get married.

Facebook is just facebook. What happens in there doesn't really matter. And I'm sure he knows this. Just keep working on your relationship - A status is thankfully easy to change.

It's quite normal. At the beginning of a relationship when feelings are really strong everyone is a little worried about rejection. I don't think either of you pushed anything, you just finally got it out, probably to his relief and yours.

Thanks everyone, I guess I feel like a teenager in love sometimes, and I'm acting like one.

I think that saying "I think I'm falling for you" is someone's way to gauge the other person's reaction without coming right out and saying "I am in love with you." I don't think it matters who takes the step of making it fb official. My boyfriend is the one that did that, but only because I told him that I'd been in relationships before where someone was vague about us being serious so I was only going to call him my "boyfriend" when we were "facebook official." I like things to be really spelled out because I've been in relationships in the past where we have had other people "on the hook" and had bad boundaries. I think he was just too scared to say "I love you" and you did the right thing.

i don't think you did anything wrong, if it doesn't work out you can always change your facebook status too. you can say you're just having fun now too.

Yes I guess I was just worried, not about being rejected, but if it was out of place for me to do. He had already said he loved me, I think. My hearing can be quite bad at times. But he seems fine with it.

I find the words "I love you" way over used. But I know when I love someone. We've already talked a lot and it's a one step at a time thing, and he knows that. I'm just glad to have a friend now that is getting closer to me. I guess I feel I should have waited a bit. I already decided I don't want anyone else now. Guess I wanted him to know that.

Thanks again everyone.
