Why did you not reply to the text? You don't want to ignore her especially when she says "I love you". It's ok to reciprocate.




This is a good point. Miler I know the general rule is to not respond to non-question texts. But ILY has a inherent expectation of response, similar to a question.

The LBS shouldn't initiate ILYs. But not initiating is not same as NOT saying it back of the WAS initiates the ILY.

I apologize if my texting advice confused this Miler. But I agree with LH, a simple "I love you too" would have been ok.

However, I wouldn't try to fix it. Tonight, if she initiates again, just respond back this time.
