When is the right time to say "I LOVE YOU" for the first time?

According to 2020 OKCupid data on 6,000 people shared with mindbodygreen, 62% of people think you should say "I love you" "as soon as you feel it," whereas 22% think you should wait "several months," and 3% think you should wait "at least a year." On average,research has found men take about three months to say "I love you" while women take about five months. (Here's more on how long it takes to fall in love in general.)

How long do other people wait?
