Love is both an action and a feeling.It needs that you take actions first,not rest on thinking only,and then you'll get blissful feelings.I don't believe Platonic love.To say "I love you" is very improtant.When you say the words "I love you",you should carry with them the desire to show how you love him/her,not what you simply feel and want. And you should make sure you are sincere and really mean it.Do you often say it to your partener?Or just cozy up to him/her?

I tell my husband that I love him many, many times a day, and he tells me. I believe that you should tell the person(s) that you love, that you love them as often so you feel it. Right at this moment I am sitting next to my husband and I just told him that I love him just a minute ago, and of course he said it back. You should always tell the people that you love, that you love them, you never know when you're going to get the chance to do so again.

You know what? It is very enjoyable and becoming my dream to have partner that can do it. Saying "I love you" with meaning to each other, is one of the sweetest thing in the world! You are lucky to have such beloved husband then!

Yes I still say it, although I wouldn't say I do as often as I once did. Since we've had our children, I think things like that as started to become less and less but we know we love each other. When I see my wife when I wake up, I still get the butterflies I did when I first met her.
I know she does too.

I really don't know but for me, it's more on action and I sometimes say those words to my partner.

Having someone to say "i love you" is such a cute thing.It is a pity that i haven't owned much hope for her,you know.The more love i give her,the more pain i get now. But i have once said i would marry her as long as she say it,so i'll wait.Just wait,wish someday she would forget her ex.

I used to say it every day before I went to work because I worked in a Correctional Facility and I might not return alive. The last thing you want is people to regret what they said before you left. So I always left with ILY. Less now that I don't work in one. But often before I leave because car accidents can end your life suddenly, too.

I do not say "I love you" too often, only when I feel like saying it, or when I think I need to say that.
For example, when I miss my partner so much and we talk via telephone, messenger, or meet directly, then I will usually say "I love you" to express my feeling. Or, when I would like to give something special, for example birthday gift or a very gentle kiss or warm hug. Oh, and I usually say "I love you" everytime we end our communication.
Bottom line; "I love you" will be there when we need it.

I do..i often tell my bf i love him. And he does too. He would tell me that in his messages and i too in my messages for him. I always tell my bf that words are not so special and i want him to show me love more than him saying it. Action speaks louder than words.. I can feel his love both through the words and his actions so it's not really a big deal to me if he says it more often or not.

My boyfriend and I live together now for four years and this one has been the hardest on the both of us with our loss of jobs. But one thing we have learned is to bond and deal with things together as a team.
Since day we realized the love we have for one another there isn't a day that we do not express our love, and sometimes we sit across the same room on the computers and one of us will out of no where say I LOVE YOU. This I am happy to share as we truly are caring people and never afraid to express our love whether in private or in public.

Really say I Love You to your loved one in public. Why not? I am not embarrassed by the love I have for him. It actually gets us admired as so many wished they too could be reciprocated by their love as mine and I do.

We say "i love you" and "i miss you" and " i need you" like every minute of our conversation.. Since my husband and I are far, we don't kiss or hug each other everyday, so we always say this words to show how we love each other whenever we are texting or talking on the phone..
But still, when we are together, like every weekends, though we cuddle up to each others arms, we still say those sweet words like every hour of the day..
i agree to yeyelee, it's important too that we should tell our partners how we really love them aside from showing it by action.. i've read in a couple of articles saying "i love you" everyday is a good exercise to make the bond of two people in love grow stronger... Avtion is important, so as words... :)

I always say "I love you" everyday to my husband and I do not get tired saying it. I know others will say "Action speaks louder than words", but life's too short and you will never know if you'll still be there tomorrow so if in case by tomorrow I'll not be around to say those words anymore, at least he heard it from me before I left him and that will stick to his mind.

Yes I agree! So it's better to say it everyday or you might regret not saying it at all.

I try to tell my husband and children that each day and more than once a day. I believe that we all need to hear those words from people that love us and I believe that you never should leave without saying I love you even to walk outside as you never know what will happen. It is important to know that we are loved.

I do love my partner and I am very vocal about how I feel aside from showing it through my actions.. I can be affectionate and sweet when I am not pissed off=) I always say " I love you" to him.., kissed him and hug him every chance I could get..=)

I heard it from somebody that you should always say the word "I love" whenever you can to your loved ones specially when they are still living. Because you'll never know when you is the last time you will be seeing them. I guess that is very logical indeed. But for me I only say it sometimes and not too often because when I say it I would really really mean it.

Its very important to say I love u often to your partner.That increases closenes amongst you and your partner.Its not necessary that just for the sake of saying you say it,you must say it wholeheartedly then only it effects.I try my level best to speak I love You to my hubby often but he is casual in saying I love you still I know he loves me a lot but yes is shy in speaking

Of course, there are more significant actions to show love.Saying "i love you" to your partner,i think, is the first step you should learn.I'll talk about other important actions in the following discussions.Hope you can pay attention to my profile.And hope you can find your "The one" in the short run.Good luck.
