I didn't let the L word out of my mouth, I know I don't feel it so why say it, even in that namby pamby "I love you like a brother" way. I know now deep down that I Love You has meant "don't leave me".
Ouch. Boy can I relate to that. H and I still say I love you and I'm starting to feel really awkward about it. The "fakeness" is about ready to drive me insane. Interesting that your H feels like he is "in love." I think my H would say the same thing. Are they nutty? What is wrong with these men? Ok, just venting.
