"We accept the love we think we deserve"
Chbosky
Dr. Seuss — "You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams."
How do you show your love?
I've seen couples that don't do the affectionate stuff, no cuddles, little kisses, just each others company. Almost like platonic friends, but they exchange "I love you's" and that's how they show they love each other. Just by saying it. That is enough.
I know many couples that need to do cutesy things like buy flowers once a week and have romantic dates frequently, that's how they say I love you.
My point is, it is different for everyone. We all have our own way of saying "I love you" either with words or another way. How do you say it? Or do you not show any love at all?

I throw her off the building, and then say ‘I Love You’ to her corpse. Feels good. :)
Then her corpse rises and floats towards me. Her hair entangles my face and pulls me towards her. Then she lifts her eye which is blood red and her lips move to say ‘I love you too’ and just pulls my heart out. :)
@TheGoldenMole Just talk with her and try to know more about her as much as you can. Make her your friend and leave the rest things on themselves. Nobody knows the future. That's how I do.
P.S. I am talking about real life not about virtual life. I never pick girls from my virtual life. Even though, they have same ethnicity as I have.
P.P.S. ignore my signature, it is just a quote haha
Well, I used to write lots of love letters, but now ...can I just use @Wolfie_11 's rooftop idea?
@Wolfie_11 Feels bad :)
@Marshmello Yes baby lets make money
@Indrid-Cold can I ask, were these love letters before phones and the internet existed or?
@TheGoldenMole said in How do you say "I love you"?:
@Wolfie_11 Feels bad :)
Looks good in my nightmares though. :)
Are you familiar with the five languages of love by Chapman ? :) it's pretty amazing.. so, I'll be posting them here.
1.Words of Affirmation: Expressing affection through spoken affection, praise, or appreciation. Except ofcourse saying I love you if you want to exclude it here.
2.Acts of Service: Actions, rather than words, are used to show and receive love.
3.Receiving Gifts: Gifting is symbolic of love and affection.
4.Quality Time: Expressing affection with undivided, undistracted attention.
5.Physical Touch: It can be intimate activity or holding hands. With this love language, the speaker feels affection through physical touch.
You can relate to a few of these . Maybe you relate to all of them. But most of us have one or two that are much more important to us than the others, and it’s different for everyone.It’s obvious that we all show affection in different ways. These “languages” simply label those ways so you can understand people a little better.
If you ask me which language I can relate with, it's a mixed of 2,4 and 3. Although , I don't care much in receiving something , I express it through gifting. :)
How about you ?
@TheGoldenMole By telling them how much they annoy me. The more they annoy me, the more I like them.
(I'm a weird person.) :shrug: :joy:

How about you ?
I'd say I use 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. I try to express my love in every way that I can so that way it gets felt and not forgotten:)

I don't like being annoyed, but the only people that can annoy me are the ones I love 😂
@TheGoldenMole wow.. you do want to receive the same? That's why it failed (I think)
@cjko said in How do you say "I love you"?:
@TheGoldenMole wow.. you do want to receive the same?
I would like to
That's why it failed (I think)
What failed?
@TheGoldenMole your past relationship
@cjko It didn't?
@TheGoldenMole it did?
@TheGoldenMole Exactly. That's what I meant. :joy:
@cjko The only one I've been in that ended had only ended because the other person was over obsessive and a jerk 😂
@TheGoldenMole Idk how show love :joy:
