Is there anyone else here who has NEVER been told "I love you" by anyone?

Question

So I was talking to this one random person, and he was extremely shocked when I said that no one has ever said "I love you" to me, and by no one I mean LITERALLY NOBODY. I'm not even talking relationships here since I've never been in one, I mean parents, friends, relatives, pets... NOBODY has ever said that to me. Lol. Is it really that uncommon? Is there anyone else here who's in the same situation, literally no one has ever said that they love youuuu? We're talking just real life here by the way. It's not like I'm max bothered, I don't really care, I'm just curious if it's really such a rare thing.

Nobody's ever said it too me either. It's not just you. I've also never been hugged, touched or kissed.

I do crave for it ever now and then but then I remind myself, just because somebody doesn't say the words doesn't mean they don't feel them. I can't say the words or express the words either, I think because nobody has ever taught me how when I was a kid - it just doesn't feel comfortable to me. But, it doesn't mean I don't love and care about people, I just express it in more subtle ways; like rather than given a hug when someone is sad, I'll always be there to turn their tears to laughter, or just taking pressure of by taking over little jobs.

I think people say "I love you" too much now anyway, at the end of the day actions speak louder than words. :)

Not really, my parents have on a couple of occasions as in a "You're our son, we do love you but don't mess up, we want you to succeed" kind of thing. It's only happened like 2 or 3 times and it never feels all that meaningful. It's never happened casually, like someone just wanted to express that they care about me - never happened. I would do that all the time if I really felt that and had someone to express it to. I'm 23 by the way.

I feel like it would be great for people's psyche's if it was said more.

I've never tell anyone "I love you" before, I don't know why, but its hard to get it out. But I guess they'd know that I love them through my actions.

My family never told me they love me whatsoever, and I don't really mind because I'm not close with them at all. As for friends, only my best friend told me once, because of some sad incident that happened.

I love you 💙

My extended family tells me they love me, but my immediate family (mom, dad, sister) don't.

As far as relationships I've never had anyone tell me they love me then, either.

Lmao I don't even have friends who tell me they love me anymore.

That's sad. You should at least hear it from your family. Outside of my family and friends, I've never had a guy say it to me and mean it. And in that case I'd rather it not be said at all.

I find it hard to believe that not even your own parents have never told you that they love you. Were they mean parents or something? To answer your question yes it is shocking because your own PARENTS at the very least should let you know that they love you, even if it's occasional.

Lol your alone on this one.

I can't end a conversation with my folks with out saying that. It like my go to line to end the conversation.

But my dad always said I love you when he left or my mom said it all the time she. She leaves or hangs up the phones.

That's weird to me. And nothing weird to Greg lol.

All of Gag loves you then haha.

A co-worker told me that a couple months ago. I almost told her no one's ever told me that before, but I didn't want to put a damper on things or make her pity me or something.

I was actually kind of surprised that she would even say that, or that anyone would really. Mostly because I've never been in a relationship before.

I'm not really used to taking compliments. It's weird to me.

From one human to another, I can say that I love you. It's not what you're looking for and you'll certainly find more infinitely more meaningful love one day soon, but people do love you. I think it's important for all of us to feel that and to be told that.

dangerDoge · Answer

Fear not, you are not alone! Literally nobody has said "I love you" to me. I am sure your day will come though, where someone will say it :D

... And if not, well, we can always be socially awkward hermits together in some random mountain xD

ccp16 · Answer

I didn't say I love you to a girl until I was 20, and even though we broke up 2 years alter, we both knew we meant it and still do in a way.

However my family says love you for everything! Every time you leave the house or hang up the phone...

thetundrawolf · Answer

Wait. When a worthy man finally says it to you, it will mean more than if everyone had said it to you every day.  I put heavy emphasis on the word worthy.

Sreemukh · Answer

The last time (and shall I also elaborate that it was the only time) someone said "I love you" to me was in my tenth grade -_- I guess I'm not lovable ;P

muspelhem_5 · Answer

Lol @ "pets". But no, wow, I suddenly feel very privileged. Someone should tell you that every day, because you're lovely.

Anonymous · Answer

I remember when my dad first told us he loved us... lmao everyone froze and turned we all went crazy because he's one of those stuffy guys that don't let anyone know how they really feel.

JustinCaseUDontKnow · Answer

I was brought up and my parents never said " I Love You " so i know how it feels ,.

steveguitar · Answer

Probably by my mother at some point, but not recently. But nobody outside my family, never dated or anything so girls don't care much about quiet guys like me.

Octavius · Answer

People have said that to me but not like in a romantic sense.
