MrInteresting: Within a relationship, can you ever really tell your partner, that you love them, a little too much?

Or, the other way around, if they are telling you several times per day, can that become an irritant, for you?

If your partner said that you were telling them too much, would you feel offended by this, very much?

Would just be interested to hear the views on this?


I find it tends to lose its meaning when expressed too much.
It should be uttered when needed and meant, not for habits sake.

I would not feel offended but would wonder if they truly knew what the word meant.

MrInteresting: Bit of a twist on the theme.

Were you with someone, and had grown used to them saying this a great deal, how soon would you notice, if they began to say it a LOT less? And, having noticed, would this shift concern you?



Any sudden down turn in affectionate displays

warrants looking into.



It might be a sign you get to go replacement shopping soon.

Veritaas: Imagine if they died, but before death it was mentioned by your partner you do not tell me you love me enough........

How many times do you think it is appropriate you tell someone you love them. Personally I do not think you can put a number on this at all. It is a matter of choice and like I said in my first post, really depends on the person themselves.

Do you think people could actually say it more often without questioning this fact of "too often, not enough".

You cannot put these words into boxed of "too this and too that". Saying I love you is not a regimental thing or a statistic.


I agree in principal if 2 people are both insecure then no limits on the amount of times is ok, but generally if you say something to often then it becomes the norm and loses any meaning.

I disagree. I am a very secure man. Very confident. IF my partner is in love with me, I like to hear it as much as possible. Insecurity comes from, having relationships where you later found out that your partner did not really love you like she/he said they did.
I know for myself if I am in love, I will tell her when I wake up. I will call her once through out the day and let her know i am thinking about her. WHen I get home from work I will give her a hug and a kiss and let her know how much I missed her and love her.
It has been my experience women do not like a nice guy. They do not like a guy who is sweet and treat them right. Most women would rather have a guy that treats them like trash. NICE GUYS FINISH LAST!!!!! Hey I think this may be a good forum topic.

Exactly, my point, everyone is different, and you have just proved that in your post. So at the end of the day there is no set amount of times you can tell your partner you love them.

JAN_is: Don´t most people? Being loved is the best feeling in the world, whether it´s love from friends, family or lover. I´m lucky, I get told it every day, not from a lover unfortunately.

Hi Ken.


Hey Jan...wave

Hearing I love you from your boyfriend/girlfriend is wonderful. Just gives me a warm comforting feeling. But seeing it in their eyes while they say it is heavenly.

You do not have to be insecure to tell someone you love them no matter how many times a day. And also, if there is a true and deep bond, friendship and love, saying these words does not lose its meaning, only unless they are said without any true feeling at all.

There are some people who have emotional depths that few can comprehend.

I still think that even when said with true feelings 10 times a day the meaning will be lost and I can see how it could become an annoyance.

My thoughts are based on love lasting 2 years max before developing into a deeper love/understanding for want of a better word.

I have to agree.
Being told " i love you" should remain always special...when it is abused it loses that meaning.

I would not say it was an annoyance but more of a habit.

All down to the person themselves at the end of the day. No matter what as stated in an earlier post of mine.
