About Saying I Love You

When is it the right time to say I love you? There are romance novels, movies, songs, poems and many articles on this topic. It's a hot subject and seems to be a great concern in many relationships, especially new ones. Who should say it first, and when and how should it be said? After you say it, should you say it all the time? Is there a best way to say I love you, or is any way good as long as you say it? Should you say it soft and low or shout it out loud?

    Significance

  1. If it's a relatively new relationship, the first time those words are uttered is a milestone. Almost as important as the words being said is where you when they are said, how they are said and, most importantly, why they were said.
  2. Considerations

  3. There are countless movies that have I love you as a climatic line. There are book stores and libraries filled with books that are sprinkled with I love you throughout them. And then there are so many wonderful songs that say I love you in the lyrics. There are certainly many sources of inspiration when one is considering sharing these special words of love.
  4. Theories/Speculation

  5. Who should say it first? Traditionally the man is the one who is expected to be the brave one who first professes love. However, not all people are motivated by tradition, so surely a non-traditional lady might just speak up first. Now what about the when and the how? Wouldn't it be most memorable if you're involved in an embrace? It might be. Should you say it all the time? Probably not; it seems to lose meaning when said continuously. Is there a best way to say it? Perhaps it doesn't matter as long as you say it and you mean it. Say it soft and low or shout it out loud, whenever and however you feel like saying it, as long as you mean it.
  6. Warning

  7. Proceed with caution if you are a fragile person. Confessions and professions of love aren't always reciprocated. Perhaps the fear of this very fact is what makes people sometimes hesitate when it comes to openly saying that they love someone. On the other hand, not saying I love you to that special someone who is hanging on your every word, waiting to hear just those three particular words, can be a deal breaker for a relationship.
  8. Benefits

  9. What can one hope for when they profess they love someone by saying I love you? The ultimate outcome should be that you touch the heart of the one you love. It is a great accomplishment to touch someone's heart.
