fail to express love

I think this is why we have so many people living in families, married, and still going online to find friendship and love. There are stories everywhere, I mean, just go to chat rooms and find out for yourself, about how married people are so lonely. I think it's because they marry from function and not love. That is the problem. I think that is the problem, and when they have this person, they cannot express love because maybe they do not feel love? Who knows. Some marry for safety, security, socioeconomic reasons. But not love. so then they end up two lonely people, that have given birth to children, and you have a whole house full of noisy lonely people. Then, they go online and play Catfish games with people, phantom love, etc. You have to be in love to express love first. I agree with you, we really should express love.

I think everyone expresses love in different ways, and that's what causes a lot of problems. Because there are some people who aren't that romantic, and won't tell I love you every second or bring flowers home, but they would be always there for the other... but they sometimes fail in the relationship, because they don't realize their spouse needs another kind of love expression. So I think most of the times the problem is not necessarily not showing love, but how to show love. Other than some people taking their spouses for granted, and not showing them they truly appreciate them, of course.

Thanks for this discussion, yes i agree, love should be from both sides and one must express it openly, they may continue after that or break though.

I do think that one should be able to express how he/she loves his/her partner. It would mean a lot to their partners and it will surely strengthen the bond that they have. It is hard to be in a relationship wherein you do not know how you'd move around that relationship. Much better to be always open with what you feel for each other.

Yes ofcourse it is important. One should be bold enough to face the positive or the negative result. what so ever, should definitely tell what one feels at heart.
