HAPPY FRIDAY!!! This question is about the L word. I want to hear all the details!!! How far into your relationship was it said? Who said it first? Had you wanted to say it for a while? When did you realize you loved him? How did it happen?
He told me he loved me 6 months into our relationship, but only a month after we were seriously dating. He was drunk at the 4th of July and actually said it by pulling me over to one of his friends and saying, “this is my girlfriend Alyssa, I love her.” I replied by saying, “ok.”
It wasn’t until about 5 months after that when we were laying in bed that he said it again. I replied this time with an “I love you too.” I thought about saying it for about a week before we did. I knew because I wanted to text him one day, “I love you” but I was too afraid! Share the stories!!!

Re: *~QOTD~* FRIDAY 4/30
I knew I loved him very early into the relationship. We were acquaintances for a couple of years before we started dating. He knew too, but was afraid to say it. (As was I)
I said it once while we were really drunk...or I was really drunk, anyway
But we both said it without the influence of booze not long after that while in bed, about four months after we started dating. We were just laying there and both said it.

Re: *~QOTD~* FRIDAY 4/30
FH and I had been close friends before we started dating. (In fact he would've asked me out sooner, but his friend called 'dibs' on me. Like I was the last slice of pizza or something! ) But we had both really liked each other for awhile so it wasn't long after we started dating that he told me he loved me. Maybe a month and a half to two months into the relationship? We were drunkkkkkkkk and walking home from the bar together at like 4 AM, eating White Castle naturally, and he said he loved me. Then he apologized and said 'I know this wasn't the most romantic moment, but I've been dying to say it!' Then he went on to tell me that he was gonna marry me one day and asked how long he'd have to wait before he could propose to me. I told him at least 3 years. Lo and behold, 3 1/2 years later, he popped the question! Tomorrow is our 5 year anniversary and then we'll be getting married in 2 weeks!!
ETA: He told me again, soberly, in the morning when we woke up.

Re: *~QOTD~* FRIDAY 4/30
We both said it fairly quickly... like within weeks of dating... i dont think i ever realized it or had a moment where i was like omg i love him...
we got in a fight, cause I lied to him about how many people i'd slept with... i think we were both thinking maybe we shouldnt date and then we were both like... but we love each other.. i dont remember who said it first...

Re: *~QOTD~* FRIDAY 4/30
lol, when i read that your question was goign to be about the L word, i thought you meant 'lesbian'
FH said it to me after about a month ... we were laying in bed together and looking at each other's eyes ... i knew he wanted to say it so i kept waiting and waiting and waiting. after about 15 mins i gave up and just turned the light off to sleep (no way was i going to say it first lol) ... the second the light was off, i heard 'i love you'

Re: *~QOTD~* FRIDAY 4/30
FH said it after about 2 weeks and I said 'what???' he said 'nothing...... I didnt say anything'. to this day he denies saying it then
then I told him about a week later (3 weeks into the relationship) and like 5 days later he said it to me in Hebrew while we were standing outside in the rain after leaving a bar - one of the best moments in my entire life (even better than the engagement LOL)

Re: *~QOTD~* FRIDAY 4/30
I knew that I loved him about 2 months into the relationship but also knew it was too soon to say it. Then about 1 months later I had a pretty huge & emotional health scare which (thank god) led to the need for only minor surgery. FH was there by my side the whole time. I was all alone, my dad & step-mom lived out of state, I dont have a mother and my brother passed away a few yrs ago so I really didnt have anyone to take me for the surgery or take care of me afterwards. So FH stepped up and I tired telling him the night of my surgery and he knew what I was going to say but I think it was 'too much' for him to handle so he told me he wasnt ready to talk about it. That hurt and really upset me but what could I do? I couldnt and didnt want to force him to say or feel something he didnt. Anyway a few weeks later we were drunk and he said it. Now he doesnt let a day pass w/out telling me how much he loves me.

We both knew very early into the relationship. He bounces at the bar/club I used to hang out and I would always say 'I love you', even before we were dating, joking around. But one night after about a month, we were in my house and he said-I never want to leave, I love you. And he never left.

Re: *~QOTD~* FRIDAY 4/30
Fh was a very late bloomer with that. I definitely knew i loved him by 3 monhts, but i refused to say it first. I waited, and waited and waited. I was pretty sure the feeling was mutual,but he is not a talker and says nothing about his feelings, keeps it all inside and never shares anything. Finally at a year (yes that is 1 full year) I was so upset we had to have a talk about it. He said 'of course i feel that way' still could not say the words.... but he did! he said he never felt that way and it scared him and scared it more to say it outloud. now he says it like 10 times a day!

Re: *~QOTD~* FRIDAY 4/30
First off - we knew each other since HS, saw each other here and there for 5 years, then ran into each other outside of a deli/salon. We 'dated for 4 months until we made it 'official' (whatever that means). Then 3 months later on Cinco de Mayo of 2006 we went to a BBQ party. Afterward we went back to his place. He was drunk, we were fooling around. He said it and I was like 'Are you just saying that because you're drunk and about to get laid or do you really mean it?' He said he really meant it! Later he told me he wanted to wait another 3 weeks until we went on a cruise together so it could be 'special and romantic' but I'm glad he told me then! PS - I don't say it first cuz I'm too coward!

Re: *~QOTD~* FRIDAY 4/30
FH said it very quickly but I had *just* gotten out of a long 5 year relationship. Although I felt it, I didn't know what to say back b/c I felt guilty saying to quickly after saying to another man, but I did love him so I said it back.

Re: *~QOTD~* FRIDAY 4/30
Neither one of us can remember. Isn't that TERRIBLE??? I feel unworthy of womanhood - what woman can't remember a detail like that? lol And the funny part is neither of us drink so that certainly wasn't the problem.

Re: *~QOTD~* FRIDAY 4/30
Oh wow, it was such a looong time ago I don't remember exactly when I said it. Probably sometime between 4-6 months of being together(only 17 at the time). I remember he was like 'that's cool', I was so pissed. I made it into this whole issue and then he finally gave in and said he loved me... It was very coerced and unromantic.
It wasn't till 4 years later, while I was opening christmas gifts from him that he just stared at me and softly said that he loved me. I knew at that moment and everytime after that, that he truly meant it. It only took him 4 years to really mean it! lol.

Re: *~QOTD~* FRIDAY 4/30
He told me he loved me first about 4 1/2 months into our relationship. We had been frineds for years so it wasnt like this was totally new to us. We were on vacation in Lake George and he told me before dinner. It was an awesome moment. I had been dying to say it, but waited for him to say it first.

Re: *~QOTD~* FRIDAY 4/30
FH said it within 2 weeks but it took me awhile to say it back. The reason probably being I got out of a really bad relationship before I started dating him.
