He was my best friend at the time, and we were going through a rough patch because the boy I had a crush on at the time did not like me. And Im on the phone with him one day, after a horrible day between me and my parents (they lied to me about something very sibling, i.e. a sibling i didn't know about) and I was like, want to hear a secret?
And so I told him, everything. He was the first person and only person I told, even my parents didnt know I knew. And he was very sweet and understanding about it. He then said, "want to know my secret?"
I was like, yeah, okay. And he told me that he loved me.

aww basicandorganic that's so cute ^^

Actually my boyfriend said I love you first and he said it when we were together for 6 months. He looked me in the eyes and told me: I never loved anybody as much as I love you.

It was 3-4 months of dating. I don't think time frame is important what I think is important of someone upon saying it is that is how they truly feel and they mean what they are saying. Just because it takes some people longer does not mean they didn't love you earlier than they finally said it.

Back when we were dating, DH told me he loved me and asked me to move in after we had been serious for a couple of months. I would have said it sooner, but was afraid that I would scare him away - turns out he felt the same way!

We had been really great friends for about 3 years, and he had liked me throughout that time. We finally got together, and we went to see the DaVinci code in theaters, and he whispered it in my ear there, and it had been about a month.

Us, too! And I said it first which I had never done before. I just couldn't keep it inside a minute longer! We have been together since Feb. of '04 and married since Oc.t of '06.

My BF told me that he loved me on my birthday, around eight months into our relationship. I had been wanting to say it to him *so badly* for months before that, but I held off because I knew he needed to be the one to say it first. When he said it, it was perfect and it was the best birthday gift I have ever received.

IMO, there are different stages of love. I didn't want to hear him tell me that he loves me while he was infatuated and lusting over me because that's not *true* love to me. I wanted to hear it from him when he felt true and unconditional love for me; the kind of love that lasts a lifetime.

Chris2195 · Oct 31st, 2009, 10:14 AM

I said it after about 2 months whereas my girlfriend at the time said it after a week lol but it slipped out, and then she kept saying it.

My SO now was also like a best friend to me before we started dating. I could tell him about everything, from boys to family problems, etc and often told each other "love you!" (in a less serious way). We used to joke around about entering into a pact where we will marry each other if we're both single at the age of 27. Well, that was almost 2 years ago and the rest is history. Who knows..at this rate by the time we are 27 next year he will be my hubby to be cause I'm SOOO in love with him!

I think it was about 3-4 months.

Zophie · Nov 20th, 2009, 01:21 PM

My SO has never said it and we've been together a little over 7 months. He has told me he adores me and loves being with me and I'm special to him, amazing, etc., but never just come out and said "I love you." He also has made a comment when he was talking about how when he first saw the car he has how it was love at first sight, "Just like when I met you." I dunno, it makes me sort of sad that he never has just told me he loves me though. I'm not going to say it first.

digby723 · Nov 20th, 2009, 06:04 PM

Oh gosh, it was probably within 6 weeks that he told me. I walked him to the door in my parents house so I could lock the door and go to bed and he told me then.

It was so sweet and perfect. I knew I loved him after we went to see the Pursuit of Happyness, I looked over to him in the theater and I just knew. We've been together 3 years tomorrow

LovePinkCoach · Nov 21st, 2009, 06:38 PM

My boyfriend said it to me after 3 months of dating. I was so glad he said it then, because I felt like I was going to explode if I didn't say it!

meluv2shop12 · Nov 22nd, 2009, 01:42 AM

i swore to myself that i would NEVER be the first one to say "i love you" to a guy! but then, 2 months after dating my now husband, i felt it and i couldn't help myself.... so i said it! it was a bit awkward actually... we were like teenagers! i was like, "i wanted to say something" as he started talking... and he was like, "go ahead".... i was like, "no you go".. and he said, "no i insist".... i finally said, "i love you"... i look at him and he had a big smile on his face and said, "that's what i was going to tell you!"

then i said, "you suck! i can't believe you made me say it first!"

that was about 8 years ago and we've been saying it to each other everyday ever since :)

ceya · Nov 22nd, 2009, 10:11 AM

I only say I love you once after five years.....and then 3 years later, I left him just because he was gone for work2 days without telling me where has he been. When he came back, I was gone. And he still is writing letters with hope that I will come back.

My so now is younger than me 5 years. He tells he loves me miss me every single day every minute he sees me. I feel like he is so inmature. Therefore, I am not comfortable with his love in the long run.
I will and only will say I love you when I love that person with all respectful from the bottom of my heart.

Both of them said that I am a strong woman that they are hardly meet. They said I used my brain more than my heart when comes to love.
Well, that is not really true. It just how they treat me at first though.
