We do tell each other how much one loves the other but also why, and that makes a lot of difference, because it's not just a "I love you" and "I love you too" it's more than that, it is I love you because I love your kindness, I love your patience, and each of us re-afirm the others qualities and I believe our love is stronger by the day because of our "I love you because". Many, many thanks for sharing your story and may we all be here 50 years from now celebrating our beloved twin souls.

We too say I love you and I love you more, I love you better, I love you best, I love you to infinitely and back !!!! I never thought about the power constantly shifting and vacillating from one another. You are absolutely right! Sometimes we’re up and others we’re down .... thank you for bring this to my attention. I am sure we will make 50 years now, God Willing :) Thank you for sharing you "Wisdom" :0) I am going to share it with others too. ~Aurelia

have a fifty - fifty partnering to make the marriage succeed. This has been my experience and have been married 40 years.

JuneBug wrote: Even though my husband and I have only been married a little over a year and a half, we know the importance of saying ''I love you''. These are generally the last words we hear from each other at the end of the day. If he says it first, I always respond ''I love you more..'' It's a good feeling to be so secure in a relationship! I envy the rest of you for being married that long cos I know from previous experience it isn't easy. It's a daily thing and it is what you make it between two people....Congrats to you all. Wish us newly weds luck...He's gonna need it! LOL!!!! :)

starbrite wrote: Wow! I've been married almost 37 years and even though a day doesn't go by that we don't say "I love you" I never gave much thought to how true 'I love you more" really is. When one of us says 'I love you' the other says "I love you more" with a smile. You made me think of how true 'love you more' is. Great post. Thank you for you insight. ~StarBrite
