who loves who more?

[nemo_lost]

hi everyone! when a guy tells a girl that he thinks he loves her more than she loves him... what is he really saying? ladies, what would you think if you heard your guy say something like that to you?

[luvursmile]

I would think he's insecure...unless it was said in a cutesy moment--like when cuddling or something.

 

But if he really meant it, I would think he's inssecure. Its not a deal breaker or anything...just maybe he has trust issues or something.

Like luvursmile said, it could be insecurity. Or perhaps he feels he's being neglected in some way.

I am not a lady, but this is what I think it could be:

 

it could be the insecurity that the other posters listed

 

or

 

He could be feeling that he puts himself more into the relationship than what you have....which would make him feel insecure about the relationship

interesting facts i learned in one of my courses....

 

1.) who usually breaks off a romantic relationship, a man or a woman?

 

answer: a woman

 

2.) who takes the longest to get over a romantic relationship, a man or a woman?

 

answer: a man

 

for some reason we tend to think that guys don't have same indepth feelings that women do. and sometimes when we don't realize that one gender thinks they love more then the other. men love a general picture or idea of a woman, and women tend to love a bunch of the little things that are deeper thought about in a man. i mean there are exceptions to the rule. but it sounds like your man just may not be sure how you rreally feel about him, or just wants you to know how much you mean to him....be flattered, but don't let him tell you that you don't love him enough.

A lot of truth in that. I've probably been the dumper as much as the dumpee but was the dumpee when I was in the 2 broken relationships that I really valued.

 

I think the dumpee usually takes longer to get over a relationship and quite often the dumper has already moved on before doing the dumping.

 

It's also true that if one senses that the other is starting to pull away, clinginess is usually the reaction.
