If someone says this to you what would you take it to mean?

What is says on the tin?

CloseYourEyesAndSee · 04/10/2021 18:15

They love you a lot??

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 04/10/2021 18:16

Depends on how and when it’s said. By my DH, I’d believe him. By my ex when we first started dating, I did not believe him and just rolled my eyes.

over2021 · 04/10/2021 18:17

That they love you a lot? And that they are 80; my Nan tells me that all the time Grin

MadamMedea · 04/10/2021 18:17

Is there any meaning beyond the obvious?

vajingleberry · 04/10/2021 18:19

It means they really like pasta.

thinkbiglittleone · 04/10/2021 18:19

Exactly what it says, (unless of course it's followed by a "but")

Workinghardeveryday · 04/10/2021 18:21

Why?

HappyDays101010 · 04/10/2021 18:22

I would think it a bit flowery and therefore insincere sounding.

dudsville · 04/10/2021 18:22

You're already over thinking this and you haven't even got started.

notacooldad · 04/10/2021 18:25

When husband says it I believe him but we e usually been goofing around.
When ( adult) Ds says it I know he is taking the piss and we are having a laugh!!

BornIn78 · 04/10/2021 18:27

It just sounds insincere to me.

AnneLovesGilbert · 04/10/2021 18:30

Exactly what it sounds like. I say it might daughter several times a day. I didn’t realise it could be unclear.

Marjoriedrawers · 04/10/2021 18:36

Wel if it was Katie Price who said it then it means absolutely nothing.

Geppili · 04/10/2021 18:47

Insincere/immature/ if from an adult.

trappedsincesundaymorn · 04/10/2021 18:55

If it came from DD it would mean she wants something
If it came from DP I'd be on the phone calling an ambulance because I'd consider him to be seriously unwell.

LadyLolaRuben · 04/10/2021 19:20

Can we have some context? Who are they? How long have you known them? What happened leading up to it being said?

WormYourHonour · 04/10/2021 19:23

Of it was my 8 year old kid, I'd be chuffed.
If it was my 80 year old nan, if be happy.
If it was a 40 year old partner, I'd cringe a bit more than maybe theyd expect.

SarahBellam · 04/10/2021 19:24

Was there a 'but I'm not in love with you' after it?

scoobydoo1971 · 04/10/2021 19:27

"I love you with all my heart" means nothing if it is not followed up with "I love you with all my heart, and I will show it through my behaviour". Actions before words.

ButterflyAway · 04/10/2021 19:41

That it’s going to rain a week on Tuesday.

Womaninthistown · 04/10/2021 20:57

Block and delete

altmember · 04/10/2021 21:45

It means twice as much as if they tell you they love you with half their heart!

Moonface123 · 04/10/2021 22:17

LTB !!!!

Only joking,

I actually think it's quite touching, and we need to remember to tell ourselves this, every time we look in the mirror, it's a positive affirmation.

Sonaftersonafterson · 04/10/2021 22:38

I'd take it as firm affirmation that they obviously hate me
