I am female and agree with Ratter too. Be careful not to be too pushy, it can spoil a lovely relationship. Remember, you are and will always be two individuals. Individuals have lives of their own to take care of and also sometimes need a little space, no matter how loved up they are. If you love him, respect his space too. He will appreciate it, honestly. I dare say he will like you a lot more if you don't appear too needy and controlling. Best wishes, hope it all works out.
Oh, and Ratter, flowers nicked from the churchyard don't count!!! Cheapskate!
