Can you answer this question when you are asked by a loved one? I admit I have a little difficulty answering this. "I love you because you are my sister" or something like that sounds uninformative. "Because you are you" sounds corny. How do you answer this question?

That's a question that's very difficult to answer. Mostly because I'm the one posting that question to baffle my boyfriend :D He just says "because I do". And that seems to be good enough for me. Although if we were to delve deeper into that answer... what happens when you "just don't" love me anymore? But I would rather think that the only reason he'd fall out of love from me would be if I did something terribly wrong and hurt him, or if I didn't care enough for the relationship :) Then...it may never happen. Thanks for the response on my discussion!

this is the same question that my man asked me and until now, i still don't know the answer. whenever this question popped out to me, i always tell him, "i don't know", coz basically, i don't really know the answer. it's kinda hard to explain to him that i don't really know...

I guess if I was asked that I'd just say, "I can't help how I feel, I just love you." Plain, simple and eazy for anyone to understand. Take Care.

I think 'Because I love you' is the simplest and yet must heartwarming answer. Love is a feeling and it's hard to describe it in words. When a person tries too hard to answer such a question, it may appears insincere. I rather hear a simple but yet truthful answer.

Well the girl i love asked me this exact same question once and all I could say was "Because you make me feel special." She was not sure whether I really loved or it was just a crush at that point of time.So when I proposed her she asked me this question. a couple of days after my answer she said "I think you really love me."So I think I answered it correctly...

I used to ask my boyfriend about this question, he said he cannot answer , he really don't know the answer,yes, I mean that he has no idea about it.At that time,I doubted that he love me . But one day , mummy told me that he is a man who loves you very much. I fell confused when I heard this. Aha ,now I am sure that he is my Mr.Right because love is not something about how excellent you are in your lover's heart,the only thing you need to know is that you love each other and whatever you are ,he or she will still love you ,for ever!@_@

The only answer is that may be it is destiny that I am in love with you. Or may be it is the mistake of hormones that make my heart race when i see you. Some how it is really absurd to answer this question.

I guess you have to dig deep and think what it is about your lover that makes you want to spend time with him/her. I do recall reading somewhere where this guy said to this girl " I love you because its effortless. I do not need to pretend to be someone other than myself because you make me proud of who I am. All I have to do is be myself". Not too corny and not uninformative.
