He says the most poetic things that takes my breath away. When we're apart I'm always constantly thinking about him and the things we've talked about and how he makes me laugh and I get that dreamy look on my face. My problem is that whenever he says "I love you" my mouth parts to tell him the same, but nothing comes out. In my heart I feel so much love for him, but its hard for me to express it or to just say three little words. Is it because deep down I might not actually love him and it could be some infatuation? Or do I have problems expressing myself?I mean I can't even tell my parents "I love you" without choking on the words and afterwards I feel sick to my stomach when I say so.what do I do to solve this problem? I don't want him to feel that I don't have the same interest in him as he does for me. Reply to this Question Share |

The fact that you find it hard to say the words to your parents as well, means that you seem to feel a lot for him, so don't worry. I think you love your folks and you love him as well, and that's what gets you choked up. The words "I love you", don't really express how much you really feel for everyone. Tell him that you have a problem with the words, because it makes you so overwhelmed you just can't get the words out. Maybe you can find another word, it dosen't matter what, a secret word that he knows means love... How about "I feel cabbages, when I think about you"... Babes, don't worry, words don't mean much, it's actions that count. If anyone asks you to say the words, just give them a big hug and a kiss. Then they will know you love them, you just think the words are too simple to express how you feel. Many people feel like this, your not alone, and it really dosen't matter as long as you treat people right and show them in little ways how much you care. Good luck, take care of you, Blessings to you both.
