How come I can’t say “I love you” to my family

[WELOVELOOKS]

I can say love you

But not “I love you”

The “I” feels so intimate to me for some reason now, I used to say I love you to my mom and dad

What happened to I?

Grey comment on my thread with some gay ass shit and I’ll bring the OG megastars back together and jump them for thinking you have the rank or forum status to speak to me even at all

Are you and your family ethnics? Asking this for a friend.

 

[xX_ovrb4itstrtd_Xx]

i had an ex that wouldnt let me say love you, only i love you

you and her should fuck and see what the kid feels about this

 

[imontheloose]

Lol. I'm like that too. No matter how old I get, I always say "love you" in person. You have to really go out your way to add the "I" suffix and it does oddly seem more intimate. I get it.

You shouldn't say "I love you" to any person — stick to adjectives.

Oxytocin defiency, Jk Jk JFL. As you grow up, puberty, hormones, and social life make you a bit more scared of intimacy. if you're post-puberty, you might just be scared of intimacy, have you had any negative experiences with intimacy?

 

[Deleted member 93861]

Same and I hate myself for it

 

[Deleted member 86562]

I've never said "love you" or anything to anyone, cant bring myself to either

I think it started with a girl who completely betrayed me

I remember saying “I love you” just randomly and it felt really personal

After that I think I stopped saying it a lot, maybe before that too honestly I can’t tell

yeah that's prolly why lol, I got my heartbroken by a girl and I now struggle with commitment (Never struggled with it before) and talk to multiple women at a time.

You don't love your parents. If you did you wouldn't have any problem. I don't love my parents so I can't say it to them, but I do love some of my friends so I'm able to say I love them.

 

[SubSigma]

Same with me tbh. It makes me feel awkward. Not sure if its mental or something or related to trauma.

Because you perceive yourself as infeiror and therefore you assume being loved by you feels like an annoyance for other people
