"I Love you"

[Lollypop4]

Just interested to know, do you and DP tell each other daily or not often?
I seen a post earlier and someone said their DP never says " I love You" but expresses their love in other ways.
Me and DP tell each other daily ( Habbit sometimes 😂)

DH and I say it at least once, but mainly several, times a day - BUT there is a lot of habit in it "love you bye", "thanks, love you", "love you, night night" - every few days we have a 'moment' where we both FEEL it, properly (not usually sex related).

I've had both.
ExH said I love you all the time. Every phone call,bed time etc.
DP barely says it (will respond when I say I love you), but I know with absolute certainty DP truly loves me. I wonder if ExH ever did.

I don't think either is right or wrong, as long as the words are genuine.
Unfortunately I married a cheating arse!

Every day I think. He shows me he loves me as well though, just in doing small things like putting my pyjamas on the radiator when I’m in the bath, having a cup of tea ready and waiting when I get in from work. But we definitely say it out of habit a lot, same as PP it’s a case have a good day, love you bye or goodnight, love you. Every few days something good happens where you really feel the love

Yes when we go to bed, when one of us leaves the house for work, when we hang up the phone.

My adult DS's do the same. To be honest, I think it's mostly habit

Once a week if I'm lucky! But he shows me every day, hiding chocolate or notes in my bag, pocket or cereal box. Plans his time to make sure there's enough 'us' time. He always thinks of me. He's trying to say it more as he knows I like to hear it. I realise it shouldn't be said because it's expected and tbh, I've learned the value of deeds over words.

Exh said it several times a day but treated me like rubbish. I know which I prefer.

Several times a day. We show it as well as say it, too. We also kiss (not full on snogs but quick pecks) and cuddle a few times a day.

Throughout the day but not in an earnest, ick way as it feels fun and genuine. I would have felt icky if some other partners had said it. But one boyfriend I was with for 4 years and loved to bits never ever said it to me and it profoundly hurt me. I felt him not saying it after that long was more of a statement than him saying it even though he felt uncomfortable if that makes sense. It's easy with my partner now and has been since we first said it, it doesn't feel like a big deal it's just something we sort of shout like we do 'you ok?' Or 'how's work?' from different rooms when we are both working from home at the moment.

I would tell ExDP, but he would only say it if I said it first and when he did he could never look at me... it was always mumbled as he looked out the window or at the floor which made me doubt how genuine it was.

Current DP never waits for me to initiate it and we tell each other every day. Its always said with feeling and meaning iyswim
