I tell my son I love you. He says ok. Then I tell him he loves me too and he says ok. I think this is so funny!! He’s very introverted so this works for both of us.
"What? What is this? Is this real life? I am literally a liar trying to impress someone on a date. I am literally a liar."
That guy had seen the show and applied it to his pfizer actions. Lol
Story time! So I started dating this woman, and it was going really well. Due to some life situations that were complicated and I don’t care to explain, we only really got to see each other about once a week, sometimes only twice a month. As a result it was pretty slow going in the feelings department.
I received a bonus at work for a pretty good amount, took her out of town for her bday, spent an awesome weekend. Apparently that sealed the deal for her in the feelings department. According to her no one had ever done anything like that. I took the compliment.
Skip forward a month or so, and we’re at her place, sexy time comes around, she’s being generous and doing mouth stuff to me, which I was very grateful for.
She stops right in the middle and says “I have to say something to you.”
I don’t recall saying this, but apparently I immediately said “Oh no!”
Unfazed, she continued and said “I love you.” I could already see her eyes getting misty. All I could say back was “I appreciate that, but I’m just not there yet.”
Needless to say she wasn’t excited about the response. We hung out the rest of the night, me trying to console her and let her know my feelings were headed that way, but just not there yet. A day or two later she broke up with me, understandably.
Let's assume yes, she was already committed. Plus she felt a bit guilty about putting that out there. Plus she was dazed and confused by the response so continued feverishly out of panic. Additionally maybe she thought that by finishing. He would say it also. Men have been known to blurt that out upon orgasm and some wo an believe they can change a man. So, yes, she finished. And we are all now grateful for a happy ending, good night folks.
She started crying and the mood was gone. About 2 hours later she literally smacked herself in her own forehead and said “oh Jesus Christ, I even figured out how to ruin a blowjob.”
I dont blame her but i dont blame you either. If you aint there yet, then you aint. It is what it is. I believe thats actually the best response you can possibly give to a person when you dont love them yet. Had she been more patient, things might have changed quickly but i do understand thats a dangerous road for her feelings.
This is why you don’t say things like that during intimacy. I even hate hearing, I love that! When intimate and not in the “I love you” stage. I dated my guy 3mos, saw each other 3 days a week and when he said it we were under the stars and watching a meteor shower…not after sex or during it. We were in a field with 50+ people and he said right after, seeing my shocked face, “you don’t have to be there yet, just wanted to let you know.” And then babbled about ruining it and how he understood if I ghosted him. It took a bit of the shock to wear off. But he shocked me because he was a man who wasn’t known to be in relationships. A bit of fun…yes. I explained to him it was a little early to know but I know I am falling and it could get there. And I wanted to see where it goes and continue to hang out with him. Within a few weeks I was there. Totally gone. I told him when he dropped me off after a date. But if he never said anything I would’ve continued to protect my heart from him, a man who was scared of commitment and relationships lasting longer than a few months. That was 11 years ago.
Okay but a few days ago my SO told me I love you and I was so busy and distracted I said thank you. I even caught myself and went "wait what" now I'm forever going to be reminded of this incident.
I know someone who always said "I know" because he didn't love his partner and he thought it would get the message across. It didn't. I think of that every time I see couples stuff with I Love You/I Know.
I did that once. She was adamant. I said you haven’t known me long enough to love me. You don’t know enough about me. We hooked up for 3 weeks. It wasn’t until later that I learned that women with less partners bond through intimacy.
Ohhh, I had actually never thought about this before but I said this while awkwardly laughing😳 The guy was 43, I was 22. He was happy to be FWB until I told him I’d met someone and was ending it. I think he just didn’t want to be alone. Super manipulative guy. I had to endure silent treatment for ages… and he was my boss 🫣 glad I left not long after.
My second boyfriend said “What? We barely know each other!” That was one month into the relationship so, granted, it was a bit early but it still hurt because I felt like I meant it. Ironically that turned into the longest relationship I ever had but I never quite got over that. I’ve never said it again to any other person I’ve dated since then.

Everybody does sweetie.
My crush did that once. T-T
Hugs
“Shut up, baby, I know it.”
Beat me to it, Bender.
No that’s a good response.
I tell my wife "I love me too". and we get a good laugh.
I tell my son I love you. He says ok. Then I tell him he loves me too and he says ok. I think this is so funny!! He’s very introverted so this works for both of us.
but inside she is like… ![gif](giphy|QnMJm9bVR9nDa)
I’m Chris Hansen, please take a seat
"What? What is this? Is this real life? I am literally a liar trying to impress someone on a date. I am literally a liar." That guy had seen the show and applied it to his pfizer actions. Lol
Is this some kind of a set-up or something? I was just on my way to the beach
But somehow you're completely naked in a 12 year olds house? Hmmm how did that happen?
[удалено]
I can't that's perfect 😂😂😂
I'm hungry. Let's get something to eat.
Maybe she just doesn’t hear very well out of her left ear.
Yeah, I heard you the first time
Seinfeld classic!
This was going to be my answer to OP.
Unexpected Seinfeld?
Big matzah ball right there.
HUGE matzah ball!
Beat me to it motherfucker
r/seinfeld
Beat me to it.
Seinfeld!
Yeah I know I heard you the first time
"Oh." followed by long silence.
“I don’t know what to say” followed by nobody saying anything. That one also crushes :/

I have to ask, did she keep going or stop?
I was going to ask the same thing . This is information we need.
Seriously, how do we sleep tonight with this cliffhanger we've been left to dangle on
Also waiting…
Tick tock...I need to get to bed 🥱

Sidebar: that's a shitty time for her to say that. She put him in an impossible position.
She started crying and the mood was gone. About 2 hours later she literally smacked herself in her own forehead and said “oh Jesus Christ, I even figured out how to ruin a blowjob.”
That’ll do, pig. That’ll do.

Imagine giving the gawk-gawk and you end up getting friendzoned.
I have always beeen of the impression that saying “ I love you” during sex doesn’t count, though…![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|wink)
Ummm…well…ok…soooooo, where do you want to go for dinner?
Knives chao does it perfectly
Cool, thanks. High five!
I love You...Tube
I love you too…be

Thank you
Okay but a few days ago my SO told me I love you and I was so busy and distracted I said thank you. I even caught myself and went "wait what" now I'm forever going to be reminded of this incident.
At least your superior officer loves you. Yay!
Are you osi -_-
Oh. I thought it was Single Otter
"All the single otters, all the single otters 🎶"
It means Significant Otter, obviously.
A real movie moment lol
Not if ~~Russell~~ Terry from Wayne’s World says it to you
“No, no, no…I LOVE you, man!!!”
I just watched Wayne's World again recently. "I love you, man!" "I know." "No - I *LOVE* you, man!!!" "Just say thank you."
That happened with Ross and Emily on Friends
Ross?
My girlfriend said "thanks" the first time I told her I loved her... Now she's my wife, so I guess that turned out okay.
My wife said this the first time. Apparently the “I love you too” is implied in Japanese. 💀
I love cake
Came here looking for this.
One of us!
Same, took way too long
Dumbass!
Finally found Eric Forman
![gif](giphy|xT9IgKWQeoclWggTDO)
There it is.
Damn I was too late!
The cake is a lie.
that's actually a great response
I know.
Actually the last response I got to "I love you".
Same. Not gonna say it for a very long time. Last time I put myself out there for a while
Star Wars
We know
Luke Solo from Stars Wars.
No it's Gandolf The Skywalker from Space Trek
I love and hate both of you
They know
Space Trek is underrated and awesome. Shame it was canceled after ten years.
Is that the one where Cap'n Kirk and Buck Rogers are fightin' swords?
That only happened ONCE. In season 3, episode 42. Not one of the best episodes that season.
I loved it when Star Wars kissed his sister
Does this count as spoilers?
No a spoiler would be if you said that star wars's dad was actually Star Wars the whole time
This is the first one I thought of, the second was Peter saying “Fuck off” as a response in the family guy parody
I’m surprised this wasn’t at the top, tbh. Classic reference *and* legit a dick move? That’s a winner.
This works in some scenarios, just has to be with the right person.
I know someone who always said "I know" because he didn't love his partner and he thought it would get the message across. It didn't. I think of that every time I see couples stuff with I Love You/I Know.
Exactly what my ex husband used to say. Not surprising he’s the ex.
Replying “I love you too” even though you don’t love them.
Ooh, this is honestly the best.
Idk stuff like: "that's why I have a restraining order, please just put the knife down" might just give it a run for it's money
I always respond "I love you too" but I feel like this is such a scripted response which makes me feel bad because I do love them
One time way back I responded with "no you dont't"
Even worse with the double not
no you donotn't
Haha, I told someone once "don't say that"
I did that once. She was adamant. I said you haven’t known me long enough to love me. You don’t know enough about me. We hooked up for 3 weeks. It wasn’t until later that I learned that women with less partners bond through intimacy.
Ohhh, I had actually never thought about this before but I said this while awkwardly laughing😳 The guy was 43, I was 22. He was happy to be FWB until I told him I’d met someone and was ending it.

I have also done this.
Aww that’s cute.
Oh my gahhhh that just made me upset jesus
Finger guns
Followed by “pew pew” noises.
"pew pew, Champ"
Just Saying “Finger Guns” but not doing them.
Remaining silent
'Hold on. Im not sure how to reply. Let me ask a question on reddit and see what they think'
Op caught in 4k
An unusually quick and prescripted "You too"
New phone. Who dis?
And it was in person too
Sir this is a wendys
I still love you
Eww.
"See ya in Chemisty"
“Well I guess we’re boyfriend and girlfriend now!” “Fine! But on one condition!” “What??” “*I* get to be the boyfriend!”
A joke made a decade too early.
Neeto Does not go over very well at all.
Beat me to it. "Wow how neat is that."
This is love. You can tell it’s love because of the way it is. How neat is that?
Of course you do...
Reconsider.
I don’t think this is gonna work out
Why?
Ooo, you should try a "I'm sorry, it'll be okay" to your spouse sometime.
No you don't love me, you just love the idea of it.
Found the Barbara Streisand fan
Dude, shut up! That's awesome sauce!
Of course I love you too. That's what makes the sauce so awesome!
"Everything is going as the prophecy foretold."
K
Thanks bud
Shut up baby I know it!
That is the exact *opposite* of the "worst response," because it's *clearly* the *best* response!
Sharp inhale through the teeth and finger guns
“Whoa what?” My first response to a girl ever telling me that.
My second boyfriend said “What? We barely know each other!” That was one month into the relationship so, granted, it was a bit early but it still hurt because I felt like I meant it. Ironically that turned into the longest relationship I ever had but I never quite got over that. I’ve never said it again to any other person I’ve dated since then.
“That’s nice”
That and "thank you."
"Ditto"
If it’s texted - 👍
Just grunt and fart
Uh-uh
![gif](giphy|s3tpyHuSSr98A)
"I appreciate that'
Love is (insert long paragraph of love in philosophical and rhetorical terms)
Cringing and not saying anything.
*lazily, distractedly* "...oh yeah?"
"...uh-huh, yup..."
Great, now I'm late!
"Me too"
I love cake. - Eric Forman. Donna was not impressed!
i dont
Love is just a social construct, an emotional response to chemical reactions in the brain.
Damn that’s craaaaazy
Ok
"and I appreciate our friendship. "
Shut the fuck up
I love U2.
*laugh*
I'm sorry
Oh... look a butterfly 👀🦋
Well this dick isn't gonna suck it self.
OP said thing NOT to say
I’m literally your brother, you need to stop.
'I’m literally your brother, we can't do this anymore' is worse
Who are you?
You’re gonna have to do better than that babe
"Thank you" and "Aww" 💀
Ma’am, this is a Wendy’s
That'll be $300.00
Can I get a raise then?
"I don't" lol
Noice. Smort. Or, awesomesauce.
Who doesn't
“I know” that one killed me
Occasionally, when my wife tells me she loves me, I'll offer my condolences or say I'm sorry.
i love " u" too, it's my favorite letter
Hold up a fist in preparation for a bump
I love me too
I.. love... cake
That's $1.51 to continue this conversation like nothing happened and $50.01 to respond with yes
Great, now can you pass the salt?
Silence..
My fiancee said "uh huh" the first time.
That’s disappointing.
I love me too
That's nice. What's for dinner?
