So do you hold back on the word love?

when i first started dating, i remembering saying it within a few weeks.

now i think it'll be a few months (or at least a month) before i say it when i start dating again (unless I was close with the person before dating)

it gets thrown around too much and too early in relationships i think.

It's hard these days to say love you to a person you never know if the relationship is going to be for long term or short term when your ready or he/she are ready thats when you say I Love You.

I wouldnt like to say it. Unless it has been a few months and i really actually love the person.

You say I love you when you actually love them.

It is so overused these days that it probably doesn't mean as much. Love is a big thing, and people should only say it if they truly know. I think it would be heaps better if it was said alot less by everyone, it would mean more.

I wouldn't say it means a whole lot, it's easy to love someone.
The real question is whether you actually like them as a person, they are two totally different things, as loving someone doesn't necessarily mean you like them.

I prefer to say it when I mean it rather than just chucking it out there... but my boyfriend already says it and I don't like saying it back because i want to mean it... but I say it back anyway because I feel slack D: I never say it first though. When I mean it I will.

Showing a person you love them is far more important/deeper/meaningful than telling a person you love them.

i love your way of thinking :)

this is exactly what i feel. especially with younger people like 14/15/16. like honestly do you even know what love is at your age?! and i very much dislike when people have been dating for a few days and already they say they "love" eachother. thats so full of shit.

i remember the first time my ex said i love you to me, but i specifically remember i ddnt say it back till a month later when we were actually dating. but funny enough, it was never said face to face THANK GOD.
i dont like rushing into the whole "i love you" scene. when i feel comfortable with the guy, then ill say it. but im not one to throw words around.

love is when you honour someone above yourself.

it's also necessary to differentiate between love and lust

Don't say "I love you" until you're going to get married...

Otherwise it just causes a lot of complications.
