How often do you tell your husband (/wife /partner etc) that you love them?

Another hardly ever here - was starting to think we're a bit odd. ?

We are the same! Been together 2.5 years-married for nearly a year. I hope we're the same years down the line.

I say it constantly- (not really, but I say it lots and lots) sometimes it is just a habit (at the end of phone calls*) sometimes because I think he needs to hear it (when I am in pain and being a brat and giving him a hard time) and other times because I get an overwhelming surge of affection for him and need him to know how much I love him.

*I also at the end of every phone call or when he is on his way out somewhere, tell him 'Don't die' he has to promise he won't and he get threatened that he will be in BIG trouble if he does!

I do realise this is very odd and daft, but I have to say it or I worry- if there are other people around who don't know me very well I just say 'DD' and he understands, I will start saying DD more often as I don't want ned to worry about the same daft things I do.?

I've been with my H for 6 years next week and I tell him I love him at the end of every phone conversation and when he goes to work and before we go to sleep and every time I mean it. I wasn't raised in a family who say it much, I've never said it to my mum or dad and nor have they said it to me but I know they do and that they're just not that kind of people.

When I was with my exboyfriend I know I said it when I didn't mean it just because he said it to me.

I tell my H "i love you" lots, when he leaves for work, phonecalls, when i look at him and get a massive rush of love. i know he knows it, but i like to reitterate it. lol

We say it sometimes at the end of a phone conversation, and usually when I go to work or he does.

Nauseatingly, all the time. Despite MrRache being one of those dastardly lawyers who twists words for money?

I am slightly embarrassed to admit that a few years ago I read about a wife who didn't kiss her husband on the lips as she didn't want him to spoil her lipstick, then he went to work at the World Trade Center on 11th Sept - and since then I have never left my H without either kissing him or telling him I love him.?

(You may stop wretching now if you wish...)

Every day. Without fail. I don't want to ever be in the situation whereby I am wishing I'd told my H more often.

Rache - not vomiting in the slightest. It just brings it home to you stuff like that.

All the time. When we say good bye, phonecalls, when we're being silly, randomly, when we look at each other. It's quite sickening come to think of it ?

We've been together 7 years, married for 2.

I always say it at the end of calls or when we're leaving eachother. Not because it's automation, but because if anything happened to him, I would get comfort from the fact that it was the last thing I ever said to him.

I know that's a bit maudlin, but there you have it.

I cant remeber the last time i said it probably when i was drunk so most nights ?

Its interesting how many of us have the same worries about things happening to our H's when we leave/ they leave etc and not having said it.

I think it's lovely! I am the same. I must say, that it's heartening to read that the majority on this thread are vocal and demonstrative in experessing their love. I didn't have half of you down, as the old romantics you clearly are! ? Seriously, its great. Better not to regret the things you never got to say as often as you wished.

I tell H several times a day that I love him and he tells me several times a day as well. I don't think that you can say it too much.

We say it before we leave for work, when we get home and at night. If H phones we always say "see you, love you, bye". In a very quick silly voice.

I only see my OH for 3 days a month (without tours) so I tell him everytime I speak to him.

I say it whenever I feel like saying it. Sometimes that's a few times a day, and sometimes it's not. He's the same. I always kiss him goodbye when I go to work, as I too worry about the fact that if something happened to him I wouldn't have kissed him good bye. I do the same to my cat though. ?

We say it a fair bit, sometimes more seriously than other times (eg I'll demand a cup of tea and then say 'Love you honey!' which he screws his nose up at. I'm quite demonstrative with my parents as well though so it comes naturally. He HAS to kiss me before he leaves for work, and have a cuddle before going to sleep, and if for some reason he forgets I guilt trip him with what Rache said. I'm a baaaad wife.

According to my husband I don't say it enough. I don't want him to think I'm saying it because he says it, he's always saying it so I hardly ever do, suppose I should change that as I do love him LOL.

Hugs as well, apprently I don't hug him enough but if I'm busy I get lost in whatever I'm working on and don't think to stop and randomly hug him. I'm not a very demonstrative person although I am working on it as it's what my husband needs to feel loved.
