Better than I love you

I know woman want to hear these 3 little words from their partner from time to time..I love you..it makes us feel secure in the relationship (this thread is not for discussing if the words are meant or just said to keep us happy 😉 )
But sometimes we can be so focused on those 3 little words that we don't recognize the other lines that sound different but are the same, till we analyze his or her words and think...wow he really loves me!!

Last friday it happened to me, and I know the story is weird and really stupid, but in the end I did have my aaawww moment!
Me and my man went out for a drink at a place we're going to every friday. We have a mutual friend, who's in a relationship too. So that friend came to us, gave me 3 kisses on the cheek (hey dutchies do that LOL) and said to my man "I want to buy your girl" so my man said "how much?" so they negotiated into camels...Sigh..kids (well I was sold for 2,5 camels) and my man said he wanted to buy his girl instead...so they negotiated about sheep. Well in the end he got her for 2 sheep. At least I was more expensive 😉
So the guys were joking around with us, acting like they were jealous at eachother, but ok it was funny when you were there.
After a while my man said he wanted to trade, but our friend said he wanted 5 extra sheep for me...and the rest of the story I didn't hear, so i don't know where they stood LOL

When we were at home and in bed, I snuggled up to my man, and he said "babe, I'm so glad I bought you back, cause I belong to you"

Ok the story is to stupid to tell, but the line really made me melt, and my heart explode!!

So cause I'm in aaawww mode I'm curious what line your partner said to you without saying I love you, that made you realize he really digs you?!

Aaawww, I would have melted too. He's such a sweetheart 🙂

I get what you're trying to say. There are more ways to melt someone's heart other than the cliche "I love you" line, & especially since so many people nowadays say this line when they don't even mean it. It's not to take away the true sentimental value of the phrase "I love you" b/c granted, some who say this actually DO mean it.

Point is though that there are OTHER & more creative/original ways to show love. And it all starts with spontaneity. 1. Saying something that a woman never expected you'd say. Nowadays, a lot of women pretty much memorized all the common pick-up lines and/or sappy phrases men use, whether they mean it or not. So when a guy can pretty much say something completely unexpected BUT YET STILL Just as sweet, it'll sweep her off her feet.

What that guy said to you was just as personal, creative & heart-felt as him saying, "I love you." He said it at the right time & at the right moment, thus it just made his comment even more special. Reading your story made me smile!

Awww 🙂

LS you're such a sweetheart, and your story made me smile, it's so sweet. We often think it's personal when we don't get any reaction, but they do know, hear or feel it.

Krys, you really said what I meant. I love you is said to fast sometimes, and mybe not even meant. My ex husband told me everyday, and I felt he just said it just to keep me "happy". At this point I'm more happy to hear through lines like this, than the 3 words, cause those are easily said, and maybe not from the heart.

Im not sure it was a good deal two sheep are worth a lot what kind of sheep are they and is your friend Shaka?

Oh LS, that's GREAT. —
