I’ve always had trouble with the phrase, I love you, when its said rather quickly. Not that saying it fast is a problem but saying when you barely know some one is a problem. A few weeks ago my wife and I spent a weekend with eleven other couples and a lot of I loves you we’re said at the end o the weekend. These I love yous were exchanged between folks who had just met each other two days before. Seemed a little strange to me.

The thing is I really do love those folks. If love is a decision to treat some one in a certain way and seek their good then yes I really do love them. If love is not what our society would have us believe, an emotion to be exploited, but rather a conscience decision then it is quite possible to say I love you to some one you’ve know a short time and mean it.

It still strikes me as a little weird but then I’m a guy and what can you expect when you start talking about love and all that kind of stuff.
