Talk Back to Jimbo

Saying "I Love You"

In every serious romance, there comes that critical moment when everything jells together and you know this is who you've been looking for. But how do you tell her? I always want to do it right at that moment of realization because that feels most spontaneous and natural. (But please wait till she finishes that bite of baloney sandwich.)

So you've said it. In our culture, when you say "I love you" to someone, you are also asking "Do you love me?" To make no response to such an admission is poor form, and, even worse, poor manners.

Having said those three little words, now you've got to live them.
