Man, it must be nice to be you and have a life so perfect that this would be the one thing knawing at you. Who cares what others say? Why do you care? What exactly do you expect them to say?
What they say to each other is less important than how they act or what they do!
The phrase, "I love you" is over used with many couples. If you have to say it all the time, you likely don't really mean it or you say it to be excused for bad behavior in your marriage. The people who really bug me insist on ending every phone call with the statement, "I love you."
I know for a fact that some of my relatives and friends have terrible marriages, but they are saying, "I love you" to their spouse all the time.
Talk is cheap, actions are not!
I make it a point to tell my wife 'I love you' when we end a phone call, or when I am leaving for work or any kind of extended outing
I do this for a reason...because when I walk out the door, or hang up the phone, god may pick the next moment to say 'let me holla at you for a minute, my son' and take me outta here, and I do NOT want the last interaction/words with my wife to be negative
We have had some doozies (disagreements, that is) in our ten years together, but (if I may wax biblical here for a minute) there's a saying along the lines of 'do not let the sun set on your anger' or 'don't go to bed p***ed off at each other'---and that works for us...even after a heated exchange, we always make sure to say we love each other before we drift off to sleep, or leave the house the next morning
Action ain't cheap---especially if you go out and back it up every day

I don't think you'll find many who will dispute this. I still question why you let how others interact bother you so much. You didn't answer my specific questions. Could it be you don't have a good reason for feeling the way you do?

Non romantic forum not giving you enough attention lately? Maybe they figured out your true intentions of simply riling people up.
Who are YOU to judge if someone's marriage is bad? Some people say I love you before they hang up because life is uncertain and they always want to end the conversation letting the other person know how they feel. Of all the things to complain about...geez.

This ^^^.
I have been in BAD relationships, and lord knows I tried VERY hard to make it work.
And I have been in wonderful relationships, as is now the case. Love is a precious gift. There is not a day which passes that I do not remind myself how lucky I am, and how wonderful it is to have someone to love, and who loves me. It is a very simple exercise to share with another person the thoughts which are in your heart: "I love you."
I know what it is like to not be able to share those thoughts. That experience makes it all the more precious when you can share them, sincerely, with someone who leaves foot prints on your heart every time you speak with them.
OP...i am sorry that you don't share this sort of relationship with someone who is extraordinarily precious to you. It must leave a very dark hole in your life.
Who the **** cares? Need something new to ***** about?
Even my parrot tells us she loves us. The bird even grasps the concept.
