Has happened, twice, two relationships, both now part of the past, they've been the one to say it first in both...this mainly because I have a lot of trouble letting people in and voicing how I honestly feel, and the fear that I'm just gonna end up fucking something up somewhere along the lines because I'm just a cynical bastard like that, I dunno have always felt that it's something that should only be said if you honestly mean it, and I can't say with 100% certainty that I think it was honest in both, but in one, in one...well it was for sure, but that's past and better off as a memory I suppose.

voted for the first, but I think the three magic words in a relationship is: I forgive you.

The three magic words aren't, "I like turtles"? Aww.

Anyway, I said it first before we got together, we were best friends before hand and I'd been picking on him like I do. In the relationship, I think he said it first.

Said it once and I got it back. But we're not in a relationship. Still hurts, but I guess I'll have to be patient for her.

I don't do relationships, and therefore have never said it or had it said to me. Too much effort for too little reward, and I refuse to compromise for somebody who probably secretly resents my presence on the earth.
Until you meet someone who loves you for your interests and is genuinely interested in them.

Hmm...I've been the one to say "I love you." to every girl I've been with,probably because I usually date shyer girls,or because they expect me to.Not quite sure but so far I've always been first,but you know even if neither person says it they can still feel it,after all "It's not unusual to be loved by anyone."

It's been almost 2 years for me, so I am not entirely sure anymore. Heck, I couldn't even tell you how many times I said it today alone. We started as friends so that adds in a few "as a friend issues"

The first time the three words were said, out loud, with heart behind them it was me to go first. First time I ever said it out loud, too. Best three words I ever said.

I'm now at the point in the relationship where the three magic words are not "I love you" anymore. The three words I need to find courage to say are "Marry me, bizatch" .... I'm going to re-think that last one ;)

Ready for a tired old response? It will happen. I gave up on relationships for exactly the same reason. I looked around and every couple I saw was fighting, or cheating, or just not getting along and then I took a look at my interest, who I was as a person and I knew I was one in 6 billion, that no one would be 'perfect' for me. Besides. Girlfriends cost too much money.
Then I met her, through a mutual interest in a tv show. The weirdest of ways to meet someone. She loves Stargate as much as I did, even a little more. She played on my WoW account(I'd since lost interest mostly, but she still liked it) she could also kick my ass at Call of Duty 4.
Stay cynical, it's better than being too willing to jump in, but it could happen. so watch out ;)

That's what I thought. I was probably as convinced as you are. And then she showed up and turned my world upside down. But we're still not together and it's not even sure if we ever can be, so I'm probably even more cynical than you are.

We have a saying here in the Netherlands, every jar has it's lid. I hope for you that you'll find your lid someday and actually be able to be with her. I don't think I ever can be.
