Do You Say "I Love You" When You Leave?

I rarely say it.......not sure why?!?!

[Marilyn]

We always kiss & hug when we leave in the morning, and wish each other a wonderful day, but "I love you" is reserved for when we feel especially loving and appreciative of the other, at times when it's kinda special. This happens fairly often, but not every day.

This is just how it works for us. I've been around people very much in love with great marriages who say it all the time, and others who had not so good marriages who said it all the time, more to reassure themselves. At least one of the latter ended in divorce.

It's entirely up to the couple. Not saying it all the time does not mean you are not very much in love.

Now, we say it all the time to our daughters. Just feels like we need to tell them more often.
