Today, my girlfriend told me she loved me for the first time. Unfortunately, it was her way of saying that she didn't want to lose me after cheating on me yesterday. FML

Today, I worked up the courage to tell my girlfriend that I love her. She made a face like she'd just sucked on a lemon and said, "Um... yay, I guess...?" and awkwardly left the room. FML

One Day…
Today, I paused the movie my girlfriend and I were watching and told her, for the first time, that I loved her. Her response was to stare at me silently for a few seconds before unpausing the film. FML

Maybe she's just nervous. Give her a bit of time and don't bring it up for a 2-3 weeks, then ask if you said it too soon.

Just give her time, it's not always easy to say those words back, maybe she wants it to mean something important. I can be that way too, I don't want be be half assed about the word "Love". So just give her time :) Try again in 3-6 weeks, those who wait receives

He didn't say how long they've been together. He may have been a lil premature.

Yeah, you could've been knee deep in your own feces begging for cash by a free-way off-ramp while your ex spends all your money on useless crap. There's always a silver lining.

That sounds annoying. Hopefully it's not an intimacy issue, that's a lot harder to deal with then her just being a bitch. Either way, doesn't sound good to me.

She may be just a little shy to say it back. A lot of my friends do the same thing.

Some people like to take it slow. Maybe saying I love you is a big deal for her. Wait a little and if she doesn't say anything, you say it and see. If she says thanks again them you know you'll have to wait for a long time or it's just not meant to be.

You should google "double your dating" and leave her.

Isn't the point of dating to find someone to love? OP is already winning. Why throw it away just because he fell first? My husband told me he loved me after a month of dating. I didn't return the sentiment for nearly three months. Love isn't a demand and shouldn't come with strings. OP, if you didn't give it freely, it isn't love. Don't let your pride ruin the relationship. Enjoy your time together and when she feels it, she'll tell you so. Pressure her and she'll resent you rather than love you.

Why is this an fml that simply means she is not ready to say it back that's a good thing it means she holds those words at what they mean and not something just to say
