DOTD - Tuesday

While it seems like I've been slacking this week, Monday was Irene stories and yesterday was power outage stories, so I didn't bother to post DOTDs. I was in an organizational management meeting all morning (go ahead, ask me anything about culture change!) so I am late to today's game but this ought to provide you with entertainment until you go home: 

"Are you usually the first or last to mutter those 'three little words' in a new relationship?"

 Me - first. I admit it. Commitment-aholic.If I feel it, and I mean it, I say it.

Re: DOTD - Tuesday

  • i'm usually last. DH said it first and i kinda didn't want him to because i was a little scared of how hard we fell for one another. i did feel the same way and said it a few hours later. but hey, we've been together for 6.5 years next week and married for 4 on friday so it worked out :)

  • I'm last too.  He said it waaay too soon for my 18 yr old self.  I was stunned and actually broke up with him.  Turns out he actually did love me and we've been together more than 8 years.

  • DH said it first, but I followed shortly after (can't remember if it was days or weeks... is that bad?!). I was pretty sure I felt the same, but wanted to be sure. I dislike when those words are overused and lose their meaning.

  • My hubby also said it first, and too soon for me. We had been friends for years, but only "together" for 2 months. When he said it, I said it back right away, but I didn't mean it yet. Isn't that terrible? I knew I wanted to marry him, so I assumed I would love him soon, so it would be okay to say it. haha. I did actually mean it shortly after :)
  • I said it first to my hubby and he said it right back.  Normally I waited till the guys said it first, but with DH I couldn't wait and just blurted it out...
  • I said it first to DH (my first time saying it to anyone, although I'd felt it a time or two before), and then he took f-o-r-e-v-e-r to say it back.  If I had it to do over again, I would have held off a little, but it just felt right at the time.  And since it eventually felt right to him, too (and we've been married 4 1/2 years), I suppose it all worked out in the end. 
  • Usually last. With DH, he said it first, but then I said it back immediately. We'd been dating--oh, a month at that point? But had been co-workers/friends for a year before that. We just knew.

  • DH said it first... although his words were "I think I really love you" and that was after 3 weeks of dating.
