Telling someone you are falling in love with them can be scary.You'll never know how the person will react.Will they reciprocate the feeling or will respond with a polite "thank you"?The confession like that can either take the relationship to a whole new level or even end it.So it's no surprise that people are so anxious about taking this step and putting themselves in an awkward situation.
Someone was curious about how did this first time go for others, so they decided to create a thread asking "What's the story of your first "I love you" with your significant other?".Quickly the thread was flooded with answers.

We'd been dating for several months.After a brief silence during a romantic dinner, we both started to speak at the same time.
"I love you" came out in perfect sync, as if we had rehearsed it.Yet it was completely natural and genuine - just one blended voice saying what each of us felt.

At the time we were just very close longtime friends.One day I was sick of pining in silence so I told her "you know I'm as subtle as a chainsawso I'm just gonna say this straight up: I'm in love with you"
She burst out crying and started hugging me trying to choke out "I've been trying to work up the guts to say that for months!"In between sobs.It was wonderful.

My girlfriend and I were discussing via text what we should do on our date.She lists a couple of movies and ends the text with P.S. I love you.We had never said I love you before and I quickly replied back I love you too.
I didn't know there was a movie called P.S I love you.She informed me she was talking about the moviebut she really was falling in love with me as well...
Married for 7 years now.

We were sitting on a couch watching Doctor Who.I said, "I have something to tell you."She said, "You love me?"I said yes.She said, "I love you, too."
