After about 3 months of dating. I was surprised he said it but I said it right back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-569536 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 20:29:32 +0000 doodlepoodle 569536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're total weirdos. We'd already moved in together but DH was too scared to say it first, I was stubborn (shocking) and finally after 6 months of waiting (we moved in together at 4 months) but when I said it he said it back and said he never had the balls to say it and he was glad that I had the "lady balls" LOL :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-569503 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 19:47:47 +0000 PurplePumps 569503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He did, about 4 months after we officially started dating. But he said it during sex so I kinda just ignored it. He said it again a week later out of the blue and it caught me off guard. I reciprocated the saying a little while later.. I have problems with expressing my feelings =\ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-569351 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 17:06:46 +0000 Sugar.Biscuit 569351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: yeah what's the story with that? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-569347 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 17:06:18 +0000 MrsBrewer 569347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: Your wedding day????</p> <p>I did! :-) I said it like a couple days after we start dating, I knew though that he was the one. He said it back right after I did though!

About 3 months of dating. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-569324 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 16:53:13 +0000 MRSMATHY 569324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I said it first when I was drunk...but only because I was tired of NOT saying it! He didn't say it until almost a year (a couple months after I had slipped up!) after we started dating. It KILLED me. Mostly because I knew that he did love me, and I knew he had just never said that to anyone and I didn't want to say it first and scare him! Silly boys! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-569313 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 16:42:51 +0000 littlebug 569313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He did. It was 4 months into our relationship, on New Year's Eve. 4 years later, he proposed on New Year's Eve. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-569158 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 15:25:39 +0000 MaisyMay 569158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: Your wedding day?

Why not until your wedding day? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-569155 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 15:24:37 +0000 BelugaBean 569155@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He said it first after about a month and a half of dating on Valentine's Day. I said it back to him when he said it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-569150 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 15:23:30 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 569150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I guess we both said it at the same time because we didn't say it to each other until our wedding day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-569142 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 15:20:51 +0000 tequiero21 569142@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is it bad that I can't remember? I think he said it and I said it right back.... Maybe fairly early on? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-569116 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 15:05:07 +0000 MrsTiz 569116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours was similar, it was me saying something like "I love you, but you are an ass." lol! I said it jokingly but then he said it right back! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-569034 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 14:36:29 +0000 Alivoo01 569034@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LOL!! Your story is hilarious because it's totally something the hubby and I would say to each other!</p> <p>Hubby said it first long before we were even official I think. It was at Ikea and he just non-chalantly said it and then pretended he didn't say it when I glanced over at him with a confused look so I just played it off. Later on, I confronted him, and he confirmed he said it, but wasn't sure if I heard him or how I would react so he played dumb. Ha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-568955 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 14:15:03 +0000 Bookish 568955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me, about two weeks into dating :p He took a day or so to say it back, although he claims he fell in love with me on our first date! We moved in together a couple weeks after that :) We moved fast! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-568954 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 14:14:55 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 568954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After a month or so of non-stop communication DH visited me for a long weekend and the morning he was leaving we were goofing off acting silly and he slipped and said it. I sobered up and he said he meant it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-568921 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 14:02:23 +0000 MaisyMay 568921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He did, on the same day he asked me to be his girlfriend, 2 days before our first date. My reply was "thank you" because I had absolutely no idea what else to say. He said it again on our first date and I said it back to him. Apparently I needed to think it over. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-568889 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 13:54:02 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 568889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did, but he immediately said it back to me. It was our first "real" date. </p> <p>@Leialou: LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-568885 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 13:53:04 +0000 yoursilverlining 568885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did, after a year together (and living together). I knew he was "the one" early on; but apparently felt zero need to rush things, haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-568850 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 13:40:05 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 568850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did. Over a text message *rolls eyes*. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-568849 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 13:39:39 +0000 Sugar.Biscuit 568849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@katiew92081: simular stories. We moved faster then the norm too. After the I love yous we were engaged 6 months later &amp; married 20 months after we met. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-568840 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 13:36:02 +0000 Smurfette 568840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did. Totally slipped out one night. We were at a Braves games and waiting for the crowd to thin out. I was a little drunk. He didn't say it back and we didn't talk about it. But I knew he did. Three weeks later we went away for the weekend, that he planned as a surprise for me. He planned the whole trip so we would remember it when he told me he loved me for the first time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-568831 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 13:32:21 +0000 LuLu Mom 568831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He did after a month a couple times before I said it back. He waited 32 years to tell someone it, so he said he knew when it was right. I took a little bit longer to say it because of the last relationship I was in. We were quick movers though, once we knew it was "the one" we bought a house after 8 months, engaged on our 1 year anniversary (the day we met), married and now have a baby girl all within 3 1/2 years! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-568821 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 13:29:28 +0000 Dandelion 568821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH did. Only after like a week after we met. Knowing him better now, I'm always shocked, cause he's NOT an impulsive person at all. I returned the sentiment a few days later after. He was ok with me having to wrap my head around it lol. We moved in together 6 months later and got married (eloped!) a year after we met. Nine months later I got knocked up, and here I am about to have his baby, lol.</p> <p>We moved fast, lol...but it was totally right for us. Wouldn't change a thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-568809 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 13:22:42 +0000 .twist. 568809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He did. We were goofing around and he said "I love you". I was a little shocked and thought he was just joking so I didn't return the sentiment, but then he said it again and I knew he was for real and I had felt the same way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-used-the-l-word-first-amp-how-long-did-it-take#post-568804 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 13:21:40 +0000 Sugar.Biscuit 568804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH &amp; I had been together 4 months when I let it slip out during a camping trip (almost slipped out a few times during sex but recovered that with i love...your petter). It was so romantic...not. He asked what that smell was, (the lake) &amp; blamed it on my butt. He said I was going to kill all the fish with my stink. I said I love you dearly but f*** you. And we both froze looking at eachother. I had the oh shit look on my face &amp; he said he was glad I finally said it cause he was struggling with not saying it too. </p>
