We say "I Love You" a lot around this house. I started noticing something very peculiar though. The I Love You's were beginning to take on different meanings.
So, I devised a plan to get to the bottom of this common phrase of affection. It was kind of like trying to figure out the different cries of a baby...but totally different=)
Anyway, I started tallying up the I Love You's and categorizing them for a whole day and this is the result:
5 - I Love You's coupled with an act of love such as a hug, kiss or sweet eye contact
3 - Random/Nonchalant I Love You's
4 - "I forgot what I was going to say" I Love You's
2 - Guilty I Love You's (like when they are about to get caught doing something wrong, like sneaking food out of the kitchen=)
2 - I want something I Love You's
Pretty interesting results I'd say=)

I have considered coming up with a new phrase for 'I love you'. I don't want it to become just something we say out of habit, like when we get off the phone or something.
