    Do you think saying "I love you " to your partner is an important part of your relationship?

    If your partner doesn't tell you (either way) would it make you feel unloved?

    Relationships that are just beginning, I don't expect to hear the words. But when I'm in a long-term relationship, I do get quite paranoid when my partner doesn't say it because I believe they don't love me anymore. lol, I'm a really hard person to be in a relationship with, awful paranoid :p

    see it depends, some females for me say those words entirely to fast, and i am one of those people, i will run a mile if i get scared haha, i just dont think you should rush into "i love you" and only say it i you 100% mean it

    It's no big deal to me there are different levels to love.
    I love your music Craig.
    I love my Gran.
    I love my computer.
    I love my friends.

    I know what you mean as in an intimate relationship love but I there are different levels to love.

    I love some of my friends more than others get me?

    I've loved gfs more than other gfs as well but it's still love just different kinds.

    So I love you isn't a huge deal for me when it's a deep kind of I love you then both parties will know it.

    I guess it depends on the people involved in a relationship. On my opinion, we need to know the traits and likes of our partner. Is he/she likes to hear words from you to show your affection or he/she felt being loved through action. There are people who likes action in showing love rather than words. Like giving them present on special occasion, prepare their favorite meals, give them flowers, chocolate every time you come home, etc. Other people said, we will not over used the word " I love you" because it might lost its value and effectiveness. But on my part, I would still love to hear " I love you" from my partner and I do the same. :)

    I feel the term, "I love you," is over used and that it doesn't always mean much anymore. So with that said, I think it should be used less often so it doesn't sound so generic. Not to mention, language did not need to be invented to say that you "love" someone. Language hasn't been around as long as us, but we are here anyway, so their must have been other methods to show it. So simply said, you don't need language. If you do, you must be lacking elsewhere.

    Yes! I do think it is an important part in a relationship. Love should be expressed!
    But it doesnt mean he doesnt love me if he doesnt say "i love you" to me. There are some people who think actions are more important than words and he might be of that kind.

    There are a lot of ways to let your partner feel loved. But, the most obvious is saying I love you. I still believe in actions speak louder than words in a relationship. Showing your love is harder but better than just saying it i always say. It's going the extra mile for your loved ones is what really matters.

  10. Level 2 Mingler 20%

    I certainly feel saying I love you keeps the relationship strong and makes both the partners feel loved by each other.

    Wow. That is weird. I'm currently in a relationship that my boyfriend assures me everyday that he loves me, by saying he loves me and showing in actions that he does. Now that I've read this thread I'm wondering if its normal to tell your girlfriend like 20x daily that you love her. :cautious: LOL. But I don't doubt he does. He is a Lit Major and writes me poetry whenever he is inspired to write me poetry. >_<

  12. Level 2 Mingler 20%

    Anything overdone will be bad. If he speaks "i love you" for 10 or 20 times a day i would doubt it, seriously.
    Saying "i love you" once in a while would be all right for me. I dont want/expect him to say it to me every single day and every minute we are together.

    As long as it is said at the right time and with the right mood ;)

    He really is in love with you. Believed me, a guy writing a poetry is very much in love and inspired by his love. I use to do that. I like writing letters and loves reading one to. It makes me happier if i reaceived a letter from my GF every special occassion than receiving a gift cause thru letters you will feel her love thru her words.

    I somehow don't doubt he loves me because, he is extremely romantic for a guy. He is the most romantic guy I have been in a relationship with, he actually ups all my standards in a guy.. that I'm sure.. If this doesn't work out I won't be able to find someone just like him. His everyday goal is to make sure I am happy and satisfied of the relationship. :D

    I know he is.. :oops: He said it is the most intense love he have ever felt, and I feel the same way too. Its like we have this bond that compels us to be together. And I love how we profess his love for me through poetry. It is the sweetest most romantic way of expressing how you feel for one person. All his emotions and feelings are converted into romantic verses. He bakes me cookies too. LOOOL

    Ohhh. thats soooooo sweet. I think he is romantic type of persons. I would love to receive some love peotries from my boyfriend, lol, but i know he is not good at that. My boyfriend can sing very well, and he would sing to express his love to me, i also think it is very sweet. Besides, he would cook delicious food for me, thats why i have gained some weight, lol. Hopefully not too much :p

    Wow. That is sweet. Your boyfriend has a talent and he uses it to serenade you and make you happy. That is a good way of making your feelings show. I bet you both have a lot of favorite songs which is considered as your relationships' song.. :D
