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

You mean she didn't call you "the Egg McMuffin of boyfriends?" Well, "thanks" is probably better than "I'm not there yet, and I doubt I'll ever be." Buy her more stuff ;)

At least you didn't do a Ted Moseby and say it on the first date

If you tell someone that you love them it should simply be a confession of how you feel, not an expectation of getting something in return. Your assumption that she should return the sentiment is tantamount to you fishing for a compliment. You spoiled the moment with your presumption. Not her. YDI

Anyone else think of That '70s Show? "I love you, Eric." "I love... cake..."

I had the same thing happen to me the other day. I guy I like and we have been talking for over 3 years. He like my best friend. So I told him I love him the other day and he looked at me and smiled and said thanks. I asked him later y he said thanks. He said cus he got scared. Understandable but still. FML
