Girlfriend and Affection.

It's like saying 'You're the most beautiful girl in the room' when the two of you are the only people there, it sounds like a compliment, but its actually not. Translated it means 'You're a troll'.

especially since there are no stars in the world, so basically, nothing to be more beautiful than

My girlfriend seems to think affection is texting loads of times saying "I Love You" and lying on the "I miss you's", "you're my world" and all the other cheesy cliche's etc etc , so so much and as she does it loads (and she's complained about me not doing it enough) I feel obliged to do it back. I do love my gf to bits, but I hate doing all the I miss you sooo much and you're my world stuff, its just so cheesy disigenous and not needed all the time. I've told my girlfriend I love her but she expects me to be saying it every day and I feel it means so much less, I'd prefer to say it in those momoents of clarity when you really do feel the love, rather than say it as a matter of routine or she'll get annoyed. What shall I do it's really bugging me and it's just not me, ive tried saying but to no avail.

I do understand how your girlfriend feels. It seems as though she is quite insecure and unhappy with herself that she needs to be reinforced about how you feel because she's scared that feelings can change instantly and one minute you'll love her and the next you won't.

I'm quite like this, not so much texting me every minute of the day or anything, but it makes me smile to see a text saying I love you and things like that. So, try not to get so annoyed by it. Maybe she just finds it hard to trust people and has been hurt in the passed which has imprinted on her in your relationship.

I'm like this as well. I'm quite an insecure person and need to be told he loves me etc. He is good though, he does tell me lots but i'm quite soppy i'd say and I will always put love you xxx or just some kisses at the ends of all my txts and msn conversations and when he doesnt do the same all the time (he does sometimes with txts but not alot, always with msn conversations), then I get a bit like oh , you know? I know he does love me, it just makes me smile and feel loved if he says love you or puts kisses at the ends of txts.

At least now I won't worry so much reading this thread. I think some people just don't do that all the time but they still love their partner loads right?

im the same, i am pretty insecure and so i like receiving texts from my bf when they say 'love you' at the end. its just the thought of them still caring i guess, and the reassurance is also nice.
