Need a womans opinion on how to tell someone you love them?

Should it be done in a romantic fashion or just blurted it out. Does it count if your drunk? When is it not an appropriate time?

DON’T DO IT WHEN YOU ARE DRUNK!

i’ve done it before, it doesn’t turn out soo well

don’t do it romatic (made that mistake too) it appears overbearing and desperate.

don’t just blurt it either, it will seem out of place and loose any sincerity

just after spending some time with her, when you are comfortable, tell her.

Don’t tell her that you love her when she is drunk or when you are drunk , it is something serious & you should take it seriously so I think you should ask her out & tell her that you love her .

I would just say it while you are talking, after awhile, so that the atmopshere is more comfortable. Then you and her won’t be as nervous. Saying I love you is romantic in itself, if she loves you it won’t really matter when. It’s better simple.

Please no alcohol involved though.

We’ve been dating for almost 9 month’s, and we both come out of marriages where we loved our partners and promised eachother we wouldn’t use the L word, but I can’t help it and I don’t know when it would be the best time and I think she’s waiting for me to say it first cause I can see it in her eyes that she feels the same way.

then go for it, don’t blurt it, do it romantically, or do it while drunk, just casually do it, don’t linger any longer, if you think she is waiting for it, then do it.

alright than, just wanted to confirm with a female. After being with my ex for 12 years and thinking you did all the right things. You start second guessing yourself in other relationships.

Hey man… Lemme ask you this… Have you noticed that at some times your feelings for her seem stronger than ever? You know, like when you’re looking at her from across the dinner table, or cuddling with her on the couch while watching tv?? It is at those intimate momments that you should tell her.

Well, if you need to be drunk in order to get the words out then it winds up being pretty much meaningless…

Technically, when planning out how to tell someone you love them, you should set the most romantic scene possible. Give her a memory of that special moment and show her how much you love her by making sure every detail is perfect.

If the feeling overwhelms you and you just blurt it out - trust me, that’s okay too. I wouldn’t pre-plan to blurt it out but if it happens it’s still special, because you are special to her. :)

Just wondering how it all turned out for you? Did you end up telling her?
