beefche Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Aww, slam. I'm sorry. Sometimes crying is the only thing that helps. I always say I'm releasing toxins (I read somewhere that crying releases toxins and that's one reason why women live longer). Now back to our regularly scheduled program.... You know I love ya more than my luggage, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beefche Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Hey! That's a compliment, man. I love traveling and I value my luggage greatly. But you are clearly not in the mood for any jokes or teasing. So I'll lay off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

claygirl Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 I say I love you all the time to my wife.-my wife says it with her eyes-no words are necessary. But I will say that when I say I love you, I feel the words fall short. The words by their very limited nature, miss the mark really- most of the time. Direct Experience not language/ Besides it is a virus.:) I missed misscrytals message? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rufuswhitman Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Yes it can be said too often. Usually when it is said too often it is a sign of insecurity on the part of the speaker. Its use is a way of being needy. When said too often, its value gets watered down. It can become annoying as well, once the recipient realizes that the words are hollow wound licking for another person's instability. It is a symptom to a greater ill. Once the speaker is no longer saying it purely for the recipient's benefit is when the "too often" train starts. Unfortunately for them, most of the speakers who do it are not attempting to be self-aware enough to recognize their own motives. RW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bini Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 I think that saying "I love you" sparingly because you fear it'll "get old" is too sad. I say it all the time to my husband and I don't know how many times per day that amounts to but he loves it and does the same with me. We both know that if the "I love you" ever stopped, that, would be a bad sign.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slamjet Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Have it not be told to you for a long while and see how you feel. Then the question of "is there such a thing as too much" becomes mute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claygirl Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 To Rufuswhitman Well said -There seems to be a great deal of fear and hurt surrounding the words "I love you" I am no stranger to the hurts and fears of love. But I never gave up. Finally I can say I love you so much.... with no pain to my beautiful wife. Just freedom of feeling. Really feeling. Real feeling. I am truly blessed. With tears good night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
