we say it almost everyday, sometimes he just calls me during the day to tell me he misses me and loves me...Cheesy I know, but if feels good. We've been together 2 yrs -now long distance for 5 months.
My sis and I say it all the time, as do my parents and grandma. Since we are all spread out across the country, it helps to hear it. When it came to my ex we would say it all the time.
There is a great book out "The Five Love Languages" . We people have 5 ways of showing and receiving love and generally 1 or 2 are more dominate.
1. Words: you like to say/hear loving words
2. Service: you like to do things for the people you love and feel loved when they do things for you.
3. Time: you like to spend time with the people you love, it doesn't matter what y'all are doing, as long as it is together.
4. Touch: you like to give hugs, kisses, and just touch, be close to the people you love.
5. Gifts: you share people you love them by buying or making things for them. When someone gives you something it makes you feel all happy and loved inside.
Personally I'm a time and service person. I like to be with the people I love doing things for them, and I feel love best by my friends/family spending time with me. But I've learned that telling people I love them is important too.
I always tell my family & friends I love them when hanging up the phone or telling them goodbye.
However, My SO told me, "I dont say I love you everytime I see you or talk to you because I dont want to cheapen it. I want you to know when I say it, it is coming from my heart, not from habit. That stuck with me - but he does tell me he loves me before either of us get on the road.
Okay, reading this post is making me cry. No guy has ever said this to me because I've never had a relationship like that. Spent 7 years in one with someone in my twenties who seemed to think he was paying the ultimate personal cost if he gave a compliment, let alone say something endearing. And, of course, he didn't love me so would never have said those words.
We've been married 9 years and I hear it at least twice a day. I also say it at least twice a day.
