I think these are hugely disempowering questions to ask in the first place.
You can't know "the truth" about another person's feelings, and what difference would it make if you could? If you can only feel safe in a relationship if you are sure about his feelings, than your security is based on an illusion. If you're only willing to "love him back" if he loves you, then love for you is a tit-for-tat arrangement, a commercial deal, a stingy imposter of love.
A better question to ask maybe is: "Am I willing to generate love in this relationship, regardless of what other people say, do, or feel?" or "Do I trust my own feelings?"
