Why do men say I love you when they don't mean it?


Recommended Posts

Last night I was at a party and at one point ended up in a circle of girls that were lamenting, complaining, and questioning breakups and past relationships. I stood back and listened for a while (of course I had to chime in at some point :rolleyes: ) and there were some interesting questions that came up. When they start coming back to me I'm going to start posting them here. For the first installment :laugh:

 

"Why do men say I love you when they don't mean it?" (I suppose this could go for women as well)

Definitely goes for women as well. And it can be way stronger than "I love you" - Juliet was pushing the subject of marriage... less than 2 weeks before she dumped me.

 

I still don't fully understand what goes on in the head of someone who does this. But I think she felt it was true at the time she said it. Some people just go with the impulse of the moment.

Why does anyone say anything?

 

Love is one of those terms that can mean a million things depending on the person who says it means.

 

My ex told me he loved me....I asked him why.

 

Answers ranged from, "because you love me..." and "because of what is in your heart."

 

How many of us have heard, I love you, but I'm not in love with you. Even if they didn't say the actual words, actions showed that to be true.

 

Sometimes words are just attempts to fix things they broke. I love you and I'm sorry are two biggies.

 

Those phrases are meaningless unless there's action to back it up.

I still wish to believe love is unconditional, unless this person is a serial killer. You love them for who they are who they were and who they might become. Yes I believe there will be difficulties. And if you love this person you might have to set them free. Just some words from a girl who still believes there is some beauty in this world.
