Lucky you!
the problem with the cypriots is that not only have they not learned to say i love you, but they themselves were never told from their parent that they love them, also its like a macho thing with the cypriots as if one becomes a sissy or one becomes weak the truth of the matter is its alctualy takes strenth to say i love you its the caresteristic of the strong not the weak to say i love you.
thats why maybe 400 people have looked at this thread and very few have said i love on the human level,
Free-cyprus, I understand what you are saying but is not always the case you know. Men in Cyprus have changed, they are less macho than they were in old times and they say I love you more easily. Some say i love you every min...like your self (and some of them do not mean it really) and some others once a year or never. By the way i do not think that is only a Cypriot thing.
As for the number of people who saw this thread and did not reply... well have you ever thought that many of those times were you and me reading the posts
I already expressed my self on the matter of love and how easily or meaningless/-full it is for some people so i will stay back with that for a while.
lena this is a universal thing not just a cypriots thing cors its not
but i wanted to tell everyone in this forum that i love them
even though some of them make me mad with the rubbish they post regarding cyprus, but i have the confidence to forgive them to, and i have the confidence to say i love you to them.
Free-cyprus, is your right to feel that way and want to say that you love them, but respect that they might not feel the way you feel. Also, when you say "I love you" do not expect the same reaction back. As Eliko said (if I am not wrong) the love thing is not something you plan, and for sure is not something that you always express with words.
But hey I do respect you
i dont expect anything from anyone leno thats why im seldom disapointed, the kind of love im talking about is the love you can tell a friend, brother or sister or daughter or son mother or father
Ok, ok, I give in. We can all love each other. Some more than the others. What has more power than words is the way we show that we love the other person. Our acts of love are more effective than just saying ' I love you'. When one is loved, they know it. When one loves it is as obvious as daylight. You can never be mistaken. As to the words, they mean nothing.

to show you love another person through body language is unspoken words that one thinks without saying them there is no other know way to show love without actualy thinking about the spoken word even if you do not say them they have to be there in your mind in order to convey them to the recipient throught your body language and your eyes
The body languages you refer to and what I am saying are two different things. The expression of love, as I am repeating myself, is not just in those words. You cay say it a thoussnd times, but if the actions or behaiviour towards the loved one is not there, the words alone mean nothing. I am not talking 'basic instincts' here, ok?
OK, you love GetReal, he is having a laugh. He would dearly love you to show that love in other ways than words.
GR always wants a direct link for his proofs.
the words i love you if they are not meant then nothing in the world can make that love real in any shape or form, we are speaking the same language here. body language was uses a simple ilistration,
if the words i love you is not conveyed with the pure thought of the meaning i love you then they are meaningless,you can look at a person and say i love you without the actiual words but in ones head the words spoken are real so they convey the real message of love,
Thanks for your expected response. So you only want to say those 'words' only for your own satisfaction. Only you will know the true meaning and you leave it up to the recipient of those 'dozen for a penny' words to guess their meaning. Without the bdy language and deeds, these words are worthless. Or do you expect your 'beloveds' to be telepathic.
Regards
i will make this simple and to the point for you, i will say this to you
i love you
now how you interpet that or what meanings you attach to those words have unlimited possibilities,
i have said those words as one human being to another like i would say it to a mother or a father or a brother or a sister or a daughter or a son my personal love is not restricted to my imidiate family nor is my love any different towards others as my family i love my family as human beings hense thats why i tell them i love you as a human being hense i tell you
what is soo confusing about that
OK, OK. No need to go that far. I say to you; I do not hate you as you are a amiable person. I will not say the I X U, simply because it would be meaningless, even to me.
ok i will explain in a more frofound way so that you might understand this love bussiness.
you cannot pissibly love anyone in the world
unless you love yourself first,
to love yourself it must be total with all your faults weakneses and strenths
to love yourself and to reach that love of oneself
you must forgive those who have hurt you in your past
you must forgive yourself for your past mistakes
to love yourself means understanding what it is to be human
what it is to be human means to love other humans
to love other humans means we acknowladge we no diffrent or better we live in difrent parts of the world speak difrent languages follow different riligions, but we are human beings.
if you are readdy to love yourself then you alreaddy posses and have conducted the above i have said what it is to love
let me know if you haveall that within you i have mentioned
