| Telling someone you love them.... Posted: 10/13/2008 12:38:47 PM | Hey All
Just reading back through old postings.....
Well its 10 months since I originally posted the question, things have moved on, and I'm so chuffed I made the move I did.
Kath and I connect in a way that I never thought possible. She is the most caring individual I have ever met. Her two children, now ours (!) are fabulous, and the 3 yeard old in now calling me Dad, a title which I am proud off and working at earning, even if it is retrospectively.
I wanted to say thanks to all for their kind words and thoughts.
Kath and I are just finalising plans for our home together, our wedding in 25 weeks time, and our whole life together.
To one and all, thank you xxx | |

| Telling someone you love them.... Posted: 10/13/2008 3:24:16 PM | | WOW!!! After having read the post by pickme from over a year ago and now this with mikethegreek...THERE IS HOPE afterall ;-) I've always felt that 'when the time is right'....IF u are going with the flow and both people are FREE emotionally and inside their hearts..and let go of ALL inhibitions(anxieties)..in other words, are able and willing to TRUST...and if both 'believe' in this theory...that it will all come together....by going with the flow, in a NATURAL way!!! I am a person with GREAT optimism, despite my life's experiences(and some have been really horrible)! You guys have just really "WOW'd" me....I am soooooo VERY VERY happy for you mikethegreek..it's awesome to have 'love'!!!!! I haven't experienced it, the REAL TRUE everlasting thing just yet...but hold out for the 'day' ;-)....and believe when it does happen, NOTHING can stop it, and I mean NOTHING!!! Congrats!!!!!! My heart is out to you and your wonderful lady!!! | |

| Telling someone you love them.... Posted: 10/13/2008 3:47:44 PM | | In my opinion.....you can only truly love someone when you know all there is to know of them.....when you almost think and act alike | |

| Telling someone you love them.... Posted: 10/15/2008 10:37:30 AM | Sometimes you know right away, sometimes it takes longer. You can love people in different ways. There are different kinds of love. For me personally, I never say "I love you" first, if I'm truly in love with them. I wait for the other half to say it first... If the person is a close friend, I have no problem saying "love you" because over the years, after losing many close ones, my friends and I have come terms and say the dreaded L word often.
I always tell potential guys, that if I come out and say "luv ya"...it's from out of habit with people that are close to me. My family is very loving, the kind that are always saying love you, hugging and kissing each other. My friends are the same way too...
Do what your gut tells you to do - when the time feels right - then say it. What do you have to lose?
And congrats to the OP - (I read your post after responding).. that is happy news. | |

| Telling someone you love them.... Posted: 10/15/2008 1:53:00 PM | Congratulations to the OP, what a great story.
The L word kind of scares me, I'm a lot more cautious with it now and well, I haven't said it to anybody in a very long time. I don't want to say it unless I feel the time is right. I think in the future I will let the guy say it first, I don't know why. I haven't had those feelings for awhile though, haven't had the opportunity. I miss being in love. Please tell me that it isn't just for young folks and I'm doomed to never hear it again.  | |

| Telling someone you love them.... Posted: 10/15/2008 3:08:37 PM | | I'm with you guys on this..I let the 'guy' lead the way whether it's to go from 'friends' to 'dating', and/or 'relationship'-and so on INTO the whole "L" word..It scares me a little, myself....Having been single for this period of time that I have, I've had my share of being played on-hurt-deceived-etc......I'm still of great optimism...and well, i guess you kiss 100 toads b4 1 prince LOL..so I don't let it scare me 'away' - that's for sure!! I wouldn't be on this 'site' otherwise... | |

| Telling someone you love them.... Posted: 10/25/2008 11:12:17 PM | | U Rock OP....I am so glad it worked out for you! You give the rest of us hope in this big fishing pond of ours! | |

| Telling someone you love them.... Posted: 10/26/2008 12:54:19 AM | I think you should go out somewhere and get into a relationship like Juliette Lewis and Woody Harrelson in Natural Born Killers. Fall in love as fast as possible and let it all hang out there for as long as you can (or have money). Hell, you might get two weeks tops but hey, I bet it would be fun as hell.
All jokes aside. Congrats on the success. | |

| Telling someone you love them.... Posted: 10/26/2008 2:08:43 PM | congrats, OP...nice to see you bump the thread to tell us how things are going...I think for guys, it is different...I have never wanted to say it unless I meant it and have only said it once in the last 20 years and I really meant it in that case | |
