#4 Unexpectedly being told “I Love You”

Those of us in relationships will likely hear this every day. The end of a phone call, or as your partner leaves the house. “I love you” is called out far too readily sometimes. But sometimes, it can be a spontaneous moment that can make even the worst day feel that little bit more endurable. Maybe the room is quiet when you hear it, or perhaps it just comes out mid-conversation. Sometimes, it will be the first time we hear it from a particular person, whereas other times we could have heard it a thousand times from their mouth. But wherever you are when you hear it, if it was said in a moment of spontaneity, it will surely make our day. There is only way to feel better than this, and that is to say it back with feeling.
