Saying: I Love You

I said it first about 2 weeks after we got together- but we had been very close friends for about 5 years or so before then. We say it ALL THE TIME now... texts throughout the day, every time we talk on the phone, randomly when we're sitting around the house. It never gets old. I truly believe its important to tell the ones you love that you love them as much as possible because you never really know what could happen. Plus, I just really love him so much!
 
I said it first, after 6 months of dating.

He said it after a year.

I love you was a big deal for us. The first time I said it, I felt it from the bottom of my heart and it was the same for him. Now, it is second nature and we say it every day almost like a greeting.
 
My DH said it first. He told me early on in our relationship that if he ever told a girl he loved them, another question would be closely following it. He's never told a girl he'd dated that he loved them because he wasn't sure they were the one he'd marry. While this told me that if he told me he loved me, he'd propose soon, I about killed him over it. We'd been seriously talking about marriage for nearly a month- to the point that we had a venue chosen and a potential date and dude hadn't told me he loved me. It was killing me and I sure as heck wasn't saying it first at this point. I finally started hinting around about it because it really bothered me. He finally, FINALLY told me he loved me just shy of three months dating and proposed the next week.

He tells me about 87 X's a day that he loves me. I tell him multiple times a day as well. We don't let a day go by without telling each other.
 
He said it first, and I can't remember how long it took us to say it. We'd been seeing each other for a few months before we started officially dating though. I say it whenever I feel it, which is usually about 100 times a day :) Kidding, we don't really talk THAT much. We say it before we hang up the phone, every morning and night, and we both say it whenever we feel it. I don't want a single day to go by where he doesn't know exactly what I feel for him. Life is way too short, and way too unpredictable.
 
He (almost) said it first. We had been dating three months of official dating long distance. One night I went out with some male friends, and I think he got a little insecure. He sent me a text that said, "I more than like you, darlin'." So, I replied, "If it's more than like, what is it?" He said, "LOVE." That was that for the night, and the next day I was actually the first to say all three words in conjunction. Now, we say it a 4 or 5 times a day, more when he is away on business. :appl:
 
Oh this makes me laugh. We started dating in our senior year of college. We had been together for a couple months and we both knew we were going in a serious direction, so I think we both felt like the "I love you" wasn't too far off. Then one Saturday night we were out with friends, and on the walk between two bars we fell behind the group. I was a bit tipsy, and at one point in our conversation he made a joke. I started to laugh and really offhandedly was like "haha I love you," but not in the romantic way, more in the friendly way that I would say to any good friend who did something funny. There was this awkward silence when I realized what I had said and we both new I didn't mean it that way, yet at the same time that's how we both felt. Then we both just started laughing. Maybe you had to be there :)

A few weeks later we were sitting on the couch watching a movie, and out of the blue he whispered "I love you" in my hear so softly it was almost inaudible. I had a feeling that's what he said but wanted to make sure, so I was like "What?" and he had to repeat "I said I love you." Good memories...
 
He said it first when we were 16 and I think dating about a month. We were hanging out at a friends house and he pulled me aside to say it. He now says it a dozen times a day, while I'm much more selective with it.

 How often do you say it to each other now?
Click to expand...
never, if i did my wife would take me to the mental hospital... :bigsmile:
 
He said it first, after about a month.... i think i said okay. lol. he prefaced it with "its okay if you don't feel like this i know how you like to be sure about everything and i know im your first boyfriend but, i love you." I had no idea what to do, i was 16 and as he made quite clear, he was my first boyfriend!

Well i think like 3 months later i said it. It figures that i made him wait so long, i mean i made him wait 3 weeks for a proper kiss! haha! :lol: its been 7.5 years and we're still goin' strong! :love:
 
He said it first, 8 days after our first date. I was 16, he was 17 - people called us crazy, but we knew how we felt. :love:

I had written it in a journal I had been keeping after 5 days, but I was too nervous to say it because I thought it might scare him off because it was so soon. Turns out he felt the same way I did, and he was the one to say it first. :)) We say it many, many times a day now and I still love hearing it and saying it every time, almost 6 and a half years later (almost 2 years married).
 
- Who said it first?
Technically I did, but I think he was prying it out of me. I had gone to bed before him- and he always comes to bed for a few with me to 'tuck me in'- when I stay at his place (I almost always go to bed before him)- He kept coming in to tell me 'something'- several excuses... like I'd say probably 7 times. Finally, he came in and asked why I was with him, told me how I've brightened up his life, make him happier than anyone else ever has, treat him like gold, etc. He had tears in his eyes (which I've NEVER seen out of him) and I just whispered that I love him. He of course returned and gave me the sweetest kiss, that I will Forever Remember!

- When was it said? (after 1 week; after 3 months ... still waiting?)
I had felt it for awhile- but due to a previous experience where everything was put in fast forward- I've been VERY patient and waited for him to initiate all these 'big' moments in our relationship. The above situation happened at the 6 month mark.

- How often do you say it to each other now?
We say it fairly often. Granted, it's still 'new' to us, but I've never felt this so strongly about anyone. We say it atleast once a day when we're apart (through the week)- but several times when we're together.
 
- Who said it first?

I said it first. I had gone out to a birthday party for a co-worker and BF had gone out for a night with the boys and we made plans to meet up afterward. I had a few too many tequila shots (not like me at all) and took a cab to go meet him. He met me outside the bar he and his friends were at and I ran up to him and blurted out "I love you!" right before getting sick right next to him. NOT my best moment, but he cleaned me up and took me inside. We still laugh about it to this day because it was just such a silly moment.

- When was it said? (after 1 week; after 3 months ... still waiting?)

BF said it the following weekend before we went to bed. I started crying because I felt so disappointed he hadn't mentioned it all week. But, he said it before we fell asleep and it was really great :)

- How often do you say it to each other now?

We say it multiple times a day. It's very important to me to say it because I am so happy and in love it almost hurts to keep it in! He's become the same way and at random points throughout the day will say things like "I just wanted to tell you I love you." Yay!
 
He said it to me in spanish first and I was like huh? What does that mean lol. Neither of us actually speak spanish but later he said that he was nervous to say it because it was so soon into our relationship and he thought I would be scared off.

Within a month he had said it first :) And I soon followed.. Now we say it atleast 50 times a day :)
 
I said it first, a long time before he did (probably a month). I didn't mean to, but we'd had such a lovely evening on vacation together and it just slipped out.

A month later he called me and he said, "Every night on my drive home from work, I listen to country music on the radio, and today every song reminded me think of you, and realized it's because I love you."
 
I said it first...

My boyfriend (now husband) came to my work and brought me a smoothie for a my break. We hung out chatting, and as he was leaving I was like "I love you"...totally didn't mean to say it, hadn't really crossed my mind to say it although I felt it. He looked at me, kind of smirked and walked away. I was MORTIFIED, it just slipped out and it was like a bitch slap that he just walked away. We hadn't been dating long AT ALL...a month, maybe (and that's being generous!).

He said it later that evening...he said that he needed his moment, like I had mine.

We were engaged 2 months after...yes, 3 months after we started dating. We've now been married for almost 4 years, very happily. We say I love many, many times a day.

I'd never said the three words first to anyone before...but boy, saying them was the best thing I ever did. It made us so solid.
 
It took my bf a year and a half to say it. It became an issue because he took sooo long. But now we say it all the time. Whenever i bring up that it took him so long, he says he didn't want to throw that phrase around like so many people do these days. It took him a while, but it was worth the wait.
 
- Who said it first?

I said it first technically. We were laying in bed and I blurted it out... Before then, he would sing to me in Arabic and French.. later learning that he was actually telling me he loved me when he would sing. I didn't understand what it actually translated to.

- When was it said?

I said it about 3 weeks into the relationship. We weren't actually technically dating until about a month later.

- How often do you say it to each other now?

We say it multiple times a day. He is not afraid to yell it in the streets or say it in crowded places... I'm more reserved when it comes to where I say it.... curious to know what the proposal will look like... yikes!
