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. :)30 Reply

+1 yNot 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.25 Reply- +1 y
Yeah, if I had someone who's very close to me and who I actually did love, I would love to express it as well. But I don't have anyone like that in my life.

I'm absolutely certain I would shower any son of mine with love and kisses all the time. I want him to be comfortable as possible with emotional openness between males and not rely on women for it because I think biologically it just doesn't come all that naturally to us. But I see girls doing it all the time, especially online when talking to their friends like "OMG I LUV U, YOU'RE SO BEAUTIFUL <3<3<3" You're already getting a bit of it in this question, I wonder if it would work for a guy...

That's sweet!
Haha, I don't know xD - +1 y
I was hoping for a courtesy "I love you" lol.
I love you MissNowhere. Looks like I'm on the bandwagon now too. :) - +1 y
Lmao I love you too then XD
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 💙26 Reply- +1 y
I don't really mind either cause just like you I'm not close with them at all either, it would be weird af if they suddenly started saying it xD lol so it's all cool haha love you 2 😄😛

Omg, I can relate soooo much!!!
- +1 y
I know right? People who aren't familiar with that situation just don't get it.
+1 yMy 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.12 Reply- +1 y
Lol, kinda weird how your extended family does but the immediate family doesn't xD
- +1 y
Probably because my extended family doesn't know me like my immediate family does 😂
+1 yThat'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.
12 Reply- +1 y
well, I'm not close with my family so it's cool ^^

Oh, well I guess that makes sense then.

Oh... But u didn't love me , I knew it.. :( ..
+1 yI 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.

I only have a mother and yeah, we don't get along at all.

+1 yLol 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.11 Reply- +1 y
From all the other answers I've read it's not really THAT weird and rare.
+1 yA 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.11 Reply- +1 y
I can relate haha, I also suck at taking compliments!
Anonymous(36-45)+1 yFrom 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.
11 Reply- +1 y
haha thanks, love you too I guess 😂
+1 yFear 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 xD16 Reply- +1 y
yay lol, another thing we have in common! I'm sure your day will come too!! hahah

Aww thanks @Xelebrum.
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...12 Reply- +1 y
Families like yours seem so alien-ish to me xD I can't even imagine my family saying it all the time like that.
+1 yWait. 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.14 Reply- +1 y
Can't wait 😄
- +1 y
Work on your heart, hon. it must be vulnerable, easily destroyed- so be wise with whom you associate. When you can give a man all of who you are, he will want to give you all of who he is. It is when we get hurt we put up block walls around us, it keeps us safe, but ti also keeps love from touching us.

thanks for the advice

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
