Use of "I love you" or "Te quiero"
I recently met someone who grew up in Nicaragua, and I have questions about the cultural differences in expressions of love.
In the U.S. a man usually wouldn't tell a woman that he loves her soon after meeting her (it does happen occasionally) because of the strong emotion it involves. However, my new friend has told said both "Te quiero" and "I love you" to me on several occasions. I am not sure whether to view this as a display of friendship or romantic affection.
I would appreciate your feedback!

Re:Use of phrase "Te quiero"
Hola. Tal vez esa persona esté usando la frase "te quiero" como una expresión de afecto o de cariño, no necesariamente de amor.
