Leo with Cancer moon here. I know people are gonna disagree because I have my own way of seeing things, but 'need' is stronger and is basically a stripped down, poor man's definition of love. The latter is too abstract, it does not actually describe how a person feels. It's just pop-culture. You cannot misinterpret 'need'-- let's face it, when you love someone you NEED them.
And for furutre reference, when a guy asks you if you love them, it is probably because they love you. If they're just out to get their egos stroked they'll ask about their performance instead lol!

Well let me jump is as Leo female. If I asked someone that question that way, it means I am fairly sure they do love me but I want to be completely sure because I am going to lead into something important. I am guessing he realized he might have surprised but he is hoping and expecting you will say it one day.
When I say I need you, that's more than want you, more than like you and more than love you. It means you are part of me. There is room for you in my life. You are special and important to me. That is big. Saying I love you is only part of that.
If you love him, why not say it? if you are not ready, don't say it just because you think he wants to hear it. with a Leo, you have to back up what you say if he asks. case in point, my guy wanted to date me and had to give me ten reasons why I was a good prospect from his point of view, lol. so if you want to say it and feel good saying it, by all means do it, if not, figure out what you feel comfortable saying and say that. as long as it is true, he should be ok with it.
