For LTR, when do you say 'I love you?'

[Bible_Belt]

I know it's mutual, but I have savored drawing it out and not telling her. We have been together about 4-5 months.

After you kiss on the altar.

"...You may kiss the bride."
*kisses*
V: *leans in to whisper in ear* "I love you."


Yeah... I had to vote "never".

 

[speed dawg]

7 months in, after she'd already said it 200 times.

 

[Mind_Body_Soul]

It doesn't matter as long as it's AFTER she says it first. The longer you wait the better.

LOL you guys! We all know that it should be said as a deathbed confession. LOL

 

[Vulpine]

Well, since I'm never going to be standing on an altar, never.

I'm probably never getting married, and if I did, it would be in Vegas... baby. ('Cuz the chick I'd marry wouldn't settle for anything less than a Vegas wedding, of course.)

So, in a Vegas wedding, I wouldn't whisper that mush. :nono: I'd whisper something more like "let's go get lucky little darlin'" in an Elvis voice. Followed by: "can we hit the roulette table and the way up to the room?"

:rockon:

Dare to dream.

When you understand what that word means to you and you know that you feel that way about someone.

The tricky part is knowing what that word means to you.

 

[Victory Unlimited]

LOL!

And here I was always taught that you should always tell a woman "I love you" in a DEAD or almost FORGOTTEN language like MAYAN or ARAMAIC----you know, or ANY other language used in a movie directed by Mel Gibson...:rockon:

I’m sure we’ve all had chicks say it to us after a week or something. I remember thinking, like WTF, “…do you realize I have not even changed my underwear the entire time I’ve known you”.

Any overused phrase essentially becomes meaningless. The only time WE should say it is only AFTER she says it and only one tenth of times she does.

Oh, yeah, for effect, never say it as an immediate response to her saying it, and, when you do say it, make it random, out of the blue, not just after you boned her.

 

[Bible_Belt]

not just after you boned her.

but damnit, I've always just boned her. Maybe that's what I love about her

 

[penkitten]

when you feel like it

lol

Oh yea, to answer the question- ONLY after she says it to you, ONLY if you really feel it, the longer the better, and make sure you use it sparingly.

 

[bigjohnson]

I don't let her expect it. Sometimes I'll say "Yeah, I'm a lovable sorta person", or "and who could blame you really?" in a funny way. Then once in a while I'll get all serious and say it back.

If you make it unexpected there is a higher addiction factor.

Look at the experiments with mice and the reward machine to see how it works.

 

[blueguy]

I think George Costanza did it best when he yelled out "I love you" within the first minute of having sex in his office with the cleaning lady...

Good advice. She ended up saying it first. I will remember to use it sparingly.

When she walks in and your upto no good with her best friend haha :rockon:

I said it recently after a few months when I was in the ****. Got me out of it and I have hardly said it ever again even tho she does all the time, as it should be.
