One of my biggest relationship fears is saying "I love you" to a guy and not hearing it back.
That's why I generally refuse to be the first one to say "I love you" in a relationship. Needless to say, it's not always a fun waiting game to play.
Relationship goddesses Em & Lo have an interesting collection of male advice for what to do if your guy doesn't say "I love you" back.
I agree with one guy's assessment that you shouldn't say the words expecting to get something in return. And yes, not everyone is keen on vocalizing emotions, especially love.
That said, it's hard to just shrug off someone's resistance to return your "I love you."
You can't help thinking you're on different pages.
