Have you ever said I love you to your dad? email this discussion to a friend?

We, in the family, are not expressive with each other feelings, so saying I love you had never been uttered by my mouth to any member of the family. I have said it but through text. However, does it really matter? I always believe that actions speak louder than voice so I just do it with actions by showing them the respect they deserved and by obeying to their commands. Now, that it's father day, I had texted my dad. I may not be able to really utter it from my mouth in front of him, but, I know he feels my love for him. How about you, have you ever said I love you to your dad? Or to any members of your family?

Absolutely. I tell him every chance I get. Actions, yes, speak louder than words. But when you live 800 miles away, it's hard to show dad how much he means to you on a regular basis.

I make sure every member of my family hears "I love you" whenever we talk.

That is great. It shows that you are affectionate. Keep it up!

My father is not a showy person and don't like to express his feeling through words but rather in action by giving something special to you. As we grew up, we have inherited this character of my father. If there's one thing that I really would like to do is to say the words "I love you" to my father when he can still hear it. I'm just looking for the right time and hopefully when he came back once again here to visit us, I could finally do this.

We have the same father! "I'm just looking for the right time and hopefuly when he came back once again here to visit us, I could finally do this". I pray that it will be soon! I know your dad will be very happy to hear that simple yet meaningful words!

When I was still single, we are not also very expressive. We don't really utter the word I LOVE YOU to our parents and even among us brothers and sisters.

But now that I am married and I have my own family already. We never forget to say I love you to each other every day.

Anyway, Happy Father's day to your dad and all fathers the world over...


myLot reputation of 93/100. senses (336)   ranked 1,616 out of 7,191 in family  2 years ago

Likewise, extend my greetings of a happy father's day to your dad and to your husband!

Not that I can remember. My parents were seperated when I was young. I used to go to my father's house and spend the holiday with him and his siblings but I can't remember being close to him and would have a moment that I would have the chance or have a situation wherein I would say "I love you" to him. I never been to close to a man except one particular lover for 2 years. After that its just a short time relationships. I don't have any feelings with my Dad. My mom didn't say anything bad about my dad, its just that we are not close. He has passed away many many years ago so when my maturity was developed I had no chance to talk o him about life and anything. Take care=)


myLot reputation of 93/100. senses (336)   ranked 1,616 out of 7,191 in family  2 years ago

How sad that you have not been closed to your dad. anyway, I know despite this you had loved your dad. Stay safe always!

My family use to be like that where no one says i love you out loud. I never heard my dad say that to me until right before he was going in for surgery on his heart about 15 years ago. But now when we talk on the phone or get together he tells me all the time that he loves me.

Great that things had change for you. I wish you all the happiness in life!

I have said it to my mom many more times than my dad. I can actually remember the times I said it: when I was in Europe, and on my wedding day. But I don't think it bothers him, because he does know how much I love him and care for him. My husband's father says it everytime they get off the phone, and he (hubby) actually gets annoyed by it. As long as he knows, I think that's what matters.


myLot reputation of 93/100. senses (336)   ranked 1,616 out of 7,191 in family  2 years ago

As long as he knows, I think that's what matters. I also agree but words would be a complements!:)

I have not ever said "I love you" to my family member though I love them very much. I think the most important thing is to let my family know my love and feel love. Maybe speak out is a very good way. No matter you speak it out or not, keep "love you" in mind and don't hesitate to to express.


myLot reputation of 93/100. senses (336)   ranked 1,616 out of 7,191 in family  2 years ago

No matter whether we speak it out or not yes I also agree that always keep love in our mind and in our heart!

to my mom when we were younger. My son I say I love him all the time. My nuclear family from childhood other than my mom and maybe my sister probably not. I've said that I love my dad in cards but not in person.
