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!
Why don't you leave the room or avoid eavesdropping on their phone calls? Then you won't hear the "I love you" and you won't be tired of it or bugged by it.
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
This is exactly how I feel. I want my husband to know I love him - so I tell him and show him every day as much as possible.
I have a great loving relationship with my wife and don't have to say it all the time. If I said it 10 times a day would that make me a better husband?

I am tired of busybodies with no lives posting thread after thread passing judgment on things that are none of their friggin' business.
Seriously, is there nothing else to do with your retirement?

Maybe it would. Have you considered giving it a try?
Being less of a curmudgeon worrying about the dumbest things. Logging off and doing some chores around the house would be dandy too. Taking up a hobby that gets the op out of the house, that would make just about everyone happy.
