I think my bf and i are saying "i love you" way too often. It starts to not feel special anymore. How do i tell him that we need to tone it down without him feeling rejected?
Sometimes I think that my boss and I are getting too friendly and our relationship just doesn't feel as special when we're palling around and talking bullshit. So I keep my fucking head down and work.
Maybe you could try something like that. Do you see the point I'm trying to make here? What zillion things aren't you doing that you find time to worry about telling someone you love them?

Mkay
I'm just being a bitch about it then?

do what I do:
when woman says "I love you"
I just say "whatever"
I think you're putting way too much weight on words, OP. I used to be the same way, but at the end of the day I realize the shit we do together and the time we spend together or for each other means far more than words ever can or will.

Tell him about that the way it is and just explain how you want this relationship to last as long as possible.
And give each other soothing speeches of how special the other of you are. Not too often, too.
And worry less, just enjoy every moment you are together. Be special and make him feel that way as well.
Sorry for my English

You're being weird and clingy.
>hurrr our love isn't special enough
My tip is to find new ways of 'saying' it, instead of words everyday.
Then it's always new.
Don't say to him "stop saying that so often", but when he does, say "show me" or something. It would be better for you to did so (demonstrated) first, since it's of your interest.

Weird, clingy AND high maintenance.
Nice.
Can't see any dude being chased away by that ever.
my girl is always saying it.
then she made a point to tell me that she says it not out of habit, but out of love, each and every time.
and then the next week she proceeded to accidently say I love you two different times on the phone with people as if it was out of habit.

I wouldn't, I'd actually be more passionate about it hahahaha.
Guess in my country that wouldn't sound weird or clingy at all.
You are challenging the guy, not all man might love challenges but most of us grow with it. Just like most woman grow with compliments.

It'd be fun once or twice a month.
But every time?
Yeah nah fuck that shit.
I'm a pretty busy guy tho with a lot of things going on especially when I'm at work (I'm a doctor). So that probably factors into it.
I simply don't have time to babysit a high maintenance girl.

Saying that once or twice might cut the deal, making the "I love you" not sound empty.
There are many trolls here OP, hope you can see where the reason at.
