Saying "I love you" - less of what it should be said for.

We had a family friend growing up and every time she saw us she would say I love you so many times in the the same visit that it really lost it's meaning. It sort of became a joke...don't get me wrong we did and do still love her, but we don't think it needs to be said so much in such a short time. I have raised my children to be very loving people, we tell each other I love you, but not ALL the time. When we're done talking on the phone, when we're leaving each other, or at the end of an email or text. It has a lot of meaning when it's said in that way, but not if it's just to be saying it. I was not raised in an overly loving home, we loved each other but there wasn't a lot of hugging or saying I love you, so I wanted to make sure my children came from a loving home and that they knew it. I think it's important to tell those people that you love that you love them, but it needs to always be sincere.

Yes, I consider those words sacred and it should only said to people whom you really have intimate connection with. It can be said to a member of your family and most importantly, to your love partner. But to say it to just anyone, it sounds inappropriate.

to today said I love you very often but many people do not experience these feelings and they say they just love. that's not nice and does not speak well for them. I think to say such things you need to feel real isilno to love to tell someone they love. ho sometimes better than a pause to say a lie. nice day!

in my country,saying “l love you”is seldom.i think it is the atmosphere of society that make this different.
