Ive only been in love twice but the first time around my boyfriend said it first. It made me feel weird all over when he said it. Like, my stomach dropped and I got butterflies. Its not something you're used to hearing when you first get a new boyfriend or its your first time. The second time I fell in love I ended up saying it first. I know alot of people out there say it before they feel it but up until i actually felt it I couldnt say it at all. I could say I love, but the you just wouldnt come out. I couldnt finish my sentence! Once I really felt it, it just came out naturally. Tell me your stories!

Well! It depends on one's nature and locality of the person. Some people are shy enoght to say it easily and they can't express their feelings easily. On the other hand some guys are blunt and say whatever they feel. In westren world guys take it bit easy and they are frank enough to express their feelings. But eastren countries where minds are not so broad guys usually feel it difficult to say "I LOVE YOU".

well i always had this thing when in love i was adamant that i would not be the first person to say it lol i didnt want to look a fool i suppose so when i was told those three words then i felt comfortable to say them back if i felt the same, i can truly say i have only ever been in love once, i have thought i was in love before but i soon realised it wasnt the real thing when i was in love

I found it really hard to say i love you the first time.. even with telling my husband the first time was pretty hard to tell him that i loved him and i was the first one to tell him that i loved him first... I thought it was really hard to say i love you.. I have only told 2 people in my whole life that i love them.. Its not so hard anymore tell him my husband that i love him..
