SOS_Please Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I am asking this on behalf of a friend, as I myself am neither married, nor in a relationship. She asked me about it, but I honestly don't know what to tell her. Apparently, her husband whom she's been married to for about five years now and dated 5 years before that never says "I love you." For example, she always calls him at work, and she'll tell him about her day, they chat, etc. and she's always the one to say it. Of course, he'll say "I love you too." However, he is never the one to initiate it. She's beginning to think something is off with him--late nights at work, etc. He is extremely good looking, and my friend has (honestly--she'll even admit it) let herself go after having her first child. I really don't know what to tell her, as I have very little experience with relationships, and none at all concerning marriage. I always had the impression that they had a wonderful marriage and that he loved her very much. So, is it just a guy thing, or could something more be up? (Sorry, I know you have very little to go off of, but this is the info she gave me.) Link to post Share on other sites
BadKittyNo Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Some people just aren't comfortable expressing their feelings verbally. My boyfriend is one of those. Yes, he has and will say that he loves me when I say it first. But, he is extremely uncomfortable expressing his emotions verbally. He expresses them through actions and deeds. That's just his way. As long as your partner expresses their love for you in some way, it's all good. Link to post Share on other sites
