I LOVE YOU. Three simple words. Easy to say. Not often said.
I’ll never forget when my husband, (then boyfriend at the time), told me he loved me for the very first time. We had been dating about 10 weeks, and I was leaving the next day on an already planned backpacking trip through Europe with a girlfriend. We had just finished a romantic dinner, and he dropped me off at home (yes, I lived at home until the day I got married, don’t make fun)! We were discussing whether or not we would stay together for the summer. After all, it was a very fresh relationship, he was staying home to work, I was leaving the next day, and did it make sense being so young to not “enjoy” Europe? We were parked in front of my house, and came to the agreement that, “Yes, we will keep this relationship going, and remain together throughout the summer.”
He then kissed me, and said “I love you.”
I replied– “Thank you.”
