Maybe you're not saying I love you enough. Some people need to hear it daily. I am not one of these people. But, sometimes in marriage, it is not only what is done but what is said. I recommend reading the 5 Love Languages. It might help you discover yours and his and that might strengthen this part of the relationship. :)

It could also be that he is just craving that intimacy with you right now, that reassurance that your love cannot be taken from him. Sometimes, in some seasons, people just feel insecure and need to know that they are truly loved as they are, accepted and valued despite their faults and flaws. This might be a season when encouragement is needed.

Counseling is always an option, too, but only if you feel that it is needful. Sometimes just having that safe time to talk openly is good. If you can do that without someone else there to mediate and guide the conversation, do it. If not, seek out godly counsel from your pastor or a married couple in your church.

Don't worry about reading between the lines, that can cause far more problems than it solves. I should think you would be happy that he said "I love you" and guaranteed he would always love you. So let it be. As long as he is saying it, and showing it in some way you have nothing to worry about.

I guess you're asking about what that 'but' means? He could have just misspoken. Try not to make big things out of little things :). Else, your marriage relationship will suffer.
