When to say I love you
| Thu, 04-29-2004 - 2:42pm |
When do you say I love you? Obviously after you have fallen in love and not before. But do you wait for the other person to say it? Do you just blurt it out? Wait for a "romantic" time?
I have fallen in love with my boyfriend and I just haven't broached the subject yet. I want to tell him... just haven't... I think his reaction will be good. But it is an unknown. Which makes me anxious.
Any thoughts? Any stories of how you told your significant other?

honey
and ps, you blurting out you loved me would not mean i'd fear you were tricking ME, if you were my boyfriend i would worry you were trying to trick yourself if i felt you were rushing into wanting to be in love...what could the rush be?...a woman would be wise to fear she will be hurt or to worry she will hurt you if you come on so strong...when i hear "i love you" that means the man is commiting to me on a very real level and its not a game to be played so as to enjoy romanticism.
If anything I was looking for insight as to why, if you value the word, should you feel compelled to withhold it for a certain mythical amount of time according to the "dating rules". Or.... am I right and it is appropriate any time after the first real kiss ?
Just trying to figure out the proper procedure with everyone else...
