for me...NOPE! cause, i prefer to show those people i love through my works... what if i said i love you to the person i love, and he replied, "really? i never noticed..." it's better if he said that, "you love me, don't you?" ahehe... showing your true feelings is truly touching than saying it... but, if you need assurance about other people's feelings, saying i love you might come in handy...(if you know what i mean... *sweatdrops*)

saying i love you to someone for me... means that you care for that person adn you really value him/her as friend. it doesn't have to be only to your special someone but also to people you cherish all your life like your parents, siblings and other relatives and especially your friends. |

I think it's one of them man things. I personally have never said I love you to anyone. But then again, I've never been in a situation, place or time where i thought I did actually love someone. So I really can't say.  |

When you're in love, you have to say it, but, if you don't want to, then don't ^^  |

I think that in one way or another, you should say "I love you" You don't have to come out and say it, but imply it in the way you do things so that special someone/persons will know you care. ;3 |

Re: Do we really need to say "I love you"

| For me, saying "I love you" is something big. I personally feel that it should be said with sincerity and be genuine. It doesn't have to be everyday because actions speak for themselves sometimes. But the one thing I hate the most is when people use "I love you" so carelessly. I feel that if you want to use strong words at least back it up. |

I do not think that you must say "I love you". Sometimes, some people may be saying it like saying a lie, so it may not neccessarily have its true meaning when a "I love you" is spoken. However, actions are then the true comfirmation of whether someone loves you or not. For example, your parents keep nagging because they love you and care for you. It may seem like it isn't "love", but that's precisely a tyical action of parents to show their love to their children. Furthermore, actions, most of the time, cannot be faked, unlike the words that really go through your brain before it is spoken. So, saying "I love you" is not neccessary. Doing actions to show that you love them is the most important. |

I think saying the words is the beginning point--where you start the actual "loving" part. Yes, actions speak louder than words, but we need a sort of confirmation. "I love you" is the best option. It is one of the strongest statement that, when you murmur it to someone else, must feel your entire dedication and conviction. Never say "I love you" to someone you hardly knew--like the woman in the market or the landlady. They will believe you and follow you around. They will creep behind you, following your leisure walk to your house. They will take pictures of you and fit it in a wooden frame and hang it all around his "shrine." Hey, it is publicity, but it can hurt you. But then again, if you're an egocentric fool, then love it. It comes once in a blue moon. Ayyiieee! The horror! [sarcastic!!! O.o] |

Speak only the truth. It's up to you whether particular truths need/ought to be spoken. For me, saying is very important. Language is how I think, so if I love someone, I want to explicitly express it to them in words, whether verbal or written. Likewise, if someone loves me, I'd like to know explicitly. Showing love by works is implicit, and one can always interpret it in a variety of ways. |

I think it really depends on the person saying it, and how much those words actually mean to them. For me, "I love you" holds a special weight, being as I rarely use those three words together, so if I finally do say it I hope it means as much to the person it is directed to as much as it does to me. As for hearing someone say those words, how much I value their saying them depends on how often I know they say it. In this instance, actions speak a lot more than words if I know the person uses "I love you" often. Of course, simply saying "I love you" doesn't solve all problems...   |

To say something as "I love you" is really very difficult to understand at times, I mean saying it to family is easier than saying it someone close to you. Love is a powerful word especially when you add I and u and sometimes it has to be used properly, one just can't say it at the spur of the moment, you have to sum up all the experiences you've had with that person and ask yourself deeply in your sub-conscience do I really love this person and ask yourself what love means to you. So yes if your saying it for the right reasons but no if your just unsure of yourself and want to make the other feel certified XD |

i don't think to saying "i love you" is really that important.. its just another direct way to express love & care.. my main point is, what your feeling & the way you cherish the person itself is more important than word.. they can understand the word "i love you" from you even without saying the word.. *sigh* I've talked a lot.. back to bed then..

yes it may be in one way or another either through words or actions or they will never know |

Sometimes... I think so... Sometimes nah... It's because such phrase is VERY typical cliche being used by everyone... it may be in different language but it's still the same... And anyone may say I LOVE YOU... but not anyone Can really practice it... I mean, you may say the line anytime to anyone even though you don't really mean to say it and you never really do... Just like Chasing CArs say... Those three words are said to much, their not enough...

Re: Do we really need to say "I love you"

At least once, but only if you mean it. You should never, EVER say "I love you" unless you really, truly mean it. Even if you think you mean it, think about it first. Because if you make some one believe you really love them and it turns out you don't, it can really, really hurt.

Well, why is the subject always, if "you" should say it? It is dependent on who you are saying it too, can they or do they want to hear it. This is such a complicated and intricate matter. The idea of love, I’m sure has been philosophized about for years. But I don’t think anyone person can be right, unless your idea can be imposed on others completely. It just means different things to other people. For me, saying I love you is the most sincere thing I can say to someone. I can always make the phrase poetic, cryptic, or physical. But in its simplest form, it has always been most pure to me. I use it so rarely, but I know some people can chuck it about without restraint. As to, do you have to say I love you. I really don’t know, and is something to be discussed between the people involved. If you are comfortable enough with that person, talk about how each of you feels about the topic. Try to have a conversation about it, explore each others views on it. I’ve been in situations where, I believe, that was the last thing the other person wanted to hear. I wish I had known how they felt about it. Just some thoughts of mine. >_< |

| Quack I found your choice of words kinda harsh, but yes I agree saying "I love you" will bring a sense of reassurence to whomever is being told they're loved. Yeah I'll go along with everybody else who has said "it depends on who" because it really does vary on person to person and also the status of that relationship between yourself and another person. Now saying "I love you" to a stanger in need will make you come across as really creepy, but you can still express that love through the compassion in your actions. Now say "I love you" to a friend will kinda be the same as the first example but won't be as awkward(I would hope not anyway). Now say "I love you" to a family member or that special someone will reassure them that you do in fact love them. Now the main idea of saying "I love you" to another person is determining if in fact you are allowed to state those kind of words. Say "I love you" to a stanger or friend you might have issues coming your way, but say that to family or that special someone then you're in the clear. |
