Do you say I Love You enough?

I always tell my boyfriend I love him but especially when he is leaving to go somewhere or before we go to bed. You never know what is going happen while he is out or if he will wake up in the morning. My anxiety makes me think about things like this way too much. Sometimes I cry thinking about if anything happened to him. I don't know what I would do. I'd be devastated. I don't want to go through that kind of hurt. I make it a point to tell him I love him several times daily. Maybe I overdo it, but I think it's better to say it too much than too little.

I do. Not always in words, but also in actions or gestures. A simple "I saw something I thought you'd like." or "I did the dishes today." type of thing. I was reminded yesterday of a country song I used to like. It goes something like.. "be a best friend, tell the truth and overuse I love you." I don't think there's any way to over use those three words.

Some people say that they are just words and don't mean anything. I don't think that is true. It makes me feel good to hear those words and they mean a lot to me.

@AngelisaQT I think they can be just words to some people, but I also think that's sad. I think it's also true that sometimes those words just aren't enough.

@AngelisaQT I think thinking shows in one way or the other. I think I would feel terrible if I said it regularly and one day I failed to do so, and that day something happened. I am also a tad light hearted. So I could say that without really thinking. That would not be nice, would it? Kinda I would say my prayers, without really concentrating on the words. So yeah..I say only when I mean it.

I do say"I love you" a lot. I learned from my Grandfather that every day is a chance. We don't know how long are e going to live here, so as long as we have a chance, let's give the best. Let's give the love we want to show them.

No. As adults, I think we tend to be careful in such things. With kids ..it is too much of l love you from my end. My parent too does that..to me. LOL. Even though we have royal battles. LOLa

It is good thing to worry for something like that if it makes you live your present to the fullest. Also expressing love by words and actions should go hand in hand!!

Yes I say it to my loved ones. Good you too are doing it. Life is very uncertain nowadays. Still don't get too anxious, try to stay calm. The anxiety won't help you, it will just make you restless and spoil your health. Take care

I think i don't say i love you quiet often to anyone eventho my parents. It's not my thing i guess because i'm not use to it. I prefer do some action eventho they don't think my action is the way i say i love you to them- to anyone
