Why do we have to say,
“I like you” or “I love you” to get the point across? Is it because it is the easiest gesture when we speak out? Maybe it is because of being simple to just pull out a mere three words that anyone can say. Shouldn’t it be harder if we mean it? Throwing out words that you don’t really mean? We grew up learning that if we throw out words others want to hear we’d be accepted or loved. It is the sad truth that it does work like that. But as for me, I think it is the hardest thing to say when I truly love someone. I contemplate if what I really feel about her is just lust and not love? Would I be just hurting her if I do say words I don’t mean? Maybe speaking out is the easiest gesture, but maybe the best way is to just show it. Show her how you feel rather than speaking out. The time and effort to showing someone you truly feel is much more rewarding than saying three little words. Maybe you can just show what you want to say and be like “this is how I feel about you.” No bullshit, no easy words, just actions.
