Sometimes, by saying that, you are exposing a personal part of your feelings and it makes you vulnerable to get hurt or taken advantage of. Those words should not be taken lightly!

All of the things these other people have said, but also how bout the fact that ur scared they wont understand?
there is love as a friend, there is love as in fancy, there is love as in deeply wanna be with for ever etc etc, there is love on the appreciation level-
its not easy
you may also be worried that by saying it too much, you become clingy or not the person they expected you to be.

because saying those three little words makes you so vulnerable!
the person you love might say: 'sorry but I don't have those feelings for you!' (or in a not so nice way :( )
But not saying those words is no alternative! I try to say it every time when I feel like saying it, and I found out that it's OK for my when I say it and I don't get it back in return...because I had the possibility to think of my feelings first and saying it.

Sounds like you need a good overdose of confidence my dear. You come over as a very insecure person. Try and ask your doctor what counselling is available for your problem. The counsellors are great at helping these days. You have nothing to lose. Don't take any notice of people who poo poo the idea of counselling. It does work if you give it a chance.

Because the feelings aren't love or fear of rejection and vulnerability

Are you afraid that the person wont say it back??? Maybe they are afraid if they say it to you, you wont say it back... If you feel it say it.....something like this>>> I don't know if you can say it back and that's ok, but I love you.<<< This way they know how you feel and they also know they are under no obligation to say it back if they don't know how they feel.

Maybe you are unsure of your true feelings....try doing some soul searching. And don't forget - you are not required to be in a hurry to say those three little words. They are yours to give whenever you are truly ready.

I think either you have insecurities about saying it, maybe because it wasn't said a lot to you, or people don't want to say it in fear the other person won't say it back...just a thought.!!!

The worry of rejection, of whether or not they will feel it/say it back to you, and opening yourself up like that to someone can be scary.
