    Default I love you?

    I've said "I love you" to Rosey.

    I said it to Sara.

    I said it to Marie, Dee, and Caitlin.

    I said it to Tiffany, and Kellie.

    I'm afraid to ever say it again.



    Have you ever said "I love you" so much... heard it so much... that you stop believing it?

    They're just three stupid words, and they don't really mean a whole lot anyway when you consider the number of ways you can love someone or something.

    I'm not a chick, so my answer is "no".

    No. And I've always been very very careful to whom and in what situation I say those words.

    I have not said or heard it enough to stop believing it.

    I fall in love at the drop of a hat.... and no woman ever believes that, so my advice is to never say it, if you can help it don't even let yourself feel it.

    As "That 70s Show" taught us, if you can't say it, instead say, "I love cake."

    It's close enough, I figure.

    My favourite response in the 80s was "I love U2."

    oh god yeah. 'I love you' is pretty much just a meaningless phrase now like 'no, those pants don't make your arse look big'.

    'I love you' is shorthand for, 'don't worry, I haven't met anyone else I'd prefer to sleep with yet this week'.

    It's relationship code. Like;
    'I like your body' = 'You were so much fitter when I met you, chubby-butt'.

    'Do you ever think about the future?' = 'I'm going to dump you'.

    'My last partner wasn't better in bed than you, they were just different' = 'I still think about them during sex'.

    'You're being possesive!' = 'You're making me feel bad about secretly having sex with other people'.

    'I need to find myself' = 'I need that new guy who works in accounts to put his penis in me'.
    Trust me. Why would I lie to you?

    I'm not sure which of those falls under "brutal honesty" and which one is just honest.

    Key to a good relationship is to go easy on the honesty. Nobody wants to look deeply and lovingly into the eyes of their one and only and hear the truth!
    Sure, most people say they want an honest relationship - they just don't want to be the one who has to be honest or have to hear it from their partner.

    That's why 'I love you' is the universal relationship balm.
    "I love you, darling". "I'm full of shit too, sweetie-pookums. Now let's snuggle".

    An even better answer. But do we really need to push Bono's ego more?

    Honesty in a relationship has boundaries of discernment. That doesn't necessarily mean it's dishonest. There's some binary thinking going on here.

    Yeah, me too.

    So the answer to the question is no.

    And yeah, honesty in a relationship has boundaries of discernment. That doesn't necessarily mean it's dishonest. There's some binary thinking going on here.
