How do you say 'I love you' without actually saying it?

I think the best thing to do is not to overuse it, but most definitely use it. Perhaps it's used so much because it means so much to people. Do something meaningful to go along with the meaningful saying. Spend some time with him, make sure you get a good gaze and embrace between you guys, and say it if it feels right. If it feels right, chances are it is the right thing to do.

How about, "you're important to me and I love having you in my life".

Cook a romantic dinner, all his favorites even the dessert. Spend a whole weekend with just him talking about how you see each other in the future together and welcome his feedback. Go a whole week without starting a single argument. Go a whole night sleeping in each other's arms without sex but let him touch you wherever he wants or better yet guide his hands where you want to be touched. After every kiss, share a moment of just staring into each other's eyes without saying anything. If he says something, simply say that words don't have to be exchanged when I look into your eyes. Then give him a hug and hold onto him until he pulls away or you two are ready to kiss again.

I disagree. I love saying "I love you" and I love hearing it! To me, it's the same word over and over again, but I never get enough of it. When he kisses me, when he holds my hand, when he tells me "I love you", it always feels like the first time.

I totally agree with u.its not what you say its what you do.its making them their favorite dinner as a surprise.calling in the middle of the day just to say how are you doing.buying them a fav CD even if you don't like the song or group.flowers just because.planning a romantic get away.a little note in their lunch or wallet
