Let me explain a little. I have heard colleagues say " I love you" to their husbands/wives and I groan inwardly when I hear it. I feel it means close to nothing and sometimes even covers up what is really going on in their lives. I have heard that, only to discover subsequently that the speaker was having an affair with another colleague.
Personally, I never use the phrase, and I would be horrified if my wife said such a thing to me - and we've been together for 44 years and married for 39 of those years.
What are your views on the usage of the phrase 'I love you'?
