Mark1 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 (edited) I was wondering if anyone else has told any of their friends these 3 words. Im a male (22) but I have no problem saying this if I truly believe it. I've said it to two people, I think. My best guy friend, after we had our first "heart to heart" I guess you could say. I said it on chat, and he said the same thing back. Never said it in person. The second person was my best female friend who I have known for 4 years. We text/online chat just about every day, and after a really good, long chat, where she helps me with something, I say, "love you" and she replies, "love you too," I have yet to put the I in there, however. The first time in person, she was drunk and I was sober, and she gave me a hug and said, "I love you," and I said, "I love you too." The second time was both sober, and I said "I love you," and she replied. My guy friends think I have a crush on her, but I don't think so. Not sure, I guess. Is this weird to say this? I don't think it is but I just wanted to share. I guess Im happy I have 2 people I can say this to outside my family. Also, I know their isn't a "rule" but can one consider someone else a best friend, even if that person doesn't see them as a best friend also? Just some thoughts I had in my head late at night....

PDPullmn612 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 I don't think it's weird to say at all. I've said it to one of my best guy friends before when he was having a rough time when his parents were gettiing a divorce. As far as females, I've said it to girls that were just friends and also received responses. Link to post Share on other sites
KR10N Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 I've said it to a few of my friends & they would always respond w/ "I love you too," nothing wrong w/ friendly love. They consider me family, family won't see a problem or think it's weird to say "I love you." Link to post Share on other sites
amethyste Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 In my opinion, "I love you" doesn't have only a romantic connotation. You can say "I love you" to your parents, relatives, friends, pets... I see nothing wrong with that I say "I love you" even to my toys, hah Link to post Share on other sites

I see nothing wrong with that I say "I love you" even to my toys, hah I probably say "I love you" to my dog about 5 times a day. But yes, love doesn't always carry a romantic connotation.
