Why do guys say "luv ya", "ily" etc. instead of "I Love You" ?

Anonymous
Most of the time my boyfriend says "luv ya" at the end of a chat convo but I almost always say "Love you" or "I love you" . Does he actually really mean 'I-genuinely-love-you' like seriously or is he lazy to type it all out and does not mean it? And I am talking about to a girlfriend and not just any friends.

I try not to sound picky, but this is definitely not the first case.

But I sure know that when he uses the correct spelling and all three words it give me those burst of butterflies unlike from "luv ya".

Soo guys, do you mean it for real if you use the abbreviated way of saying I love you to your girlfriends?
