I’ve noticed that you really enjoy hearing me say “I love you,” and I get that it’s something that helps you feel close to me. I love how much affection and connection you want from me, and it means a lot to me that we have that kind of bond. At the same time, I’ve realized that I don’t always feel the need to say it as often as you might want, and sometimes when you ask me to say it, I feel like it’s a little bit forced for me. I want to be able to say “I love you” when I truly feel it in the moment, but I sometimes feel like it’s more meaningful when it’s spontaneous, rather than when it’s asked for. That said, I understand how important it is for you to hear it, and I want to find a balance that works for both of us. I don’t want you to feel insecure or unloved, because that’s not how I feel about you at all. I love you deeply, and I want to make sure that the way I express that is meaningful to both of us. Can we talk about how we can find a way for me to say “I love you” in a way that feels genuine and not forced, but also makes you feel secure and loved?178
