L word etiquette

[Cleopatra_J]

What is the proper way to respond when someone says "I Love you" for the first time. Do you feel obligated to say it back, do you say it back because you mean it? What if you are unsure? What if your so flattered you can't stop smiling-should they feel bad?

I say thank you and keep rolling if I don't feel the same way...

Co sign.

I try to never say things I don't mean.

If she spouts it and I'm not there, I'll let her know.

When I have heard heard and didnt feel the same way..it turned me off. But I would never say i back if I didnt mean it.

some classic responses:
thank you
i know
i like you too



ive been in a situation similar to this, i just told him how i felt about him right after he said it

so therefore he knew where i stood

when my ex said it first i told him don't say things like that cuz i don't play around with the L word and he hugged me and said it again in my ear (awwwww)

but i just smiled and gave him a hug back and said ...u aight urself

when i actually felt the same way i randomly said....i love u too



he didn't trip about me NOT saying it so it was cool

the "I know" usually work for me.

Then, when the chick says "what you mean I know", I explain if I constantly have to tell you that I love you, I will water down the meaning of love. There's times when you tell a girl that you love her.

1. after some good ass sex

2. if you going to be gone for a long period of time.

3. you are about to die

4. the girl is about to have your kid

5. all of the above

I never say that word because I dont know how that feels like{I mean in a relationship} and when I have women say it to me, I just smile it off and counter it quick with something smart and funny.it usually works for me then I see we're on the next topic far from the "I love you" topic.

I won't say it unless I really, really mean it. And even then it might take me a while. I'm good for saying, "Awww. . I like you too" or I'll just giggle/laugh. . (I have this bad habit of laughing when I get nervous)

How to calculate when one or the other feels the impression of love is astronomical.

There are many factors that can influence the decision to make it known, verbally. The old saying, actions speak louder than words. Choosing the right moment, can be difficult to say, for some or simple for others.

If you don't feel the same way, at least appreciate the emotion and deal with it thoughtfully. Praise for the thought is great, don't take it too far tho, if you don't feel the same just explain yourself. Communication is everything. Gentlemen, realize that women are the inner seed, the delicate, men are the outer shell, callous.

Rejection, due to the words would be catastropic and rightfully so, be tactful in determining, if/or cessation or recognition, is/may be in order...
