YOU CANT MAIL A HUG!

I think I say it when im drunk, although im not really sure. I generally reserve the use of "love" for my girlfriend, my favorite games, delicious food and whiskey.

So you rather say I love a video game, food and booze.. before your friends?

Should I be telling them I love them? What's the point?

I'm not really an emotional person. I think most guys aren't.... and actions speak louder than words. If someone is your friend and you're their friend they know you care about them, not really a need to say it.

Back in high school when I had more friends who are girls we'd say 'i love you' to each other occasionally, but it was more flirty and not serious. In fact it was a mutual understanding that everything was completely platonic that made it okay to say it.

The only people I've ever said that to and meant it are my wife and my parents.

There isn't a point to say it
There also isn't a point NOT to say it.

I am more curious than anything.

I mean sure you may understand the person knows you like em, but I don't see a problem with expressing that.

Well, we're all thinking it so I'll go ahead and say it:

Most guys would find it really weird if you told them you love them.

Ya, but its more so platonic with those things. I can be like "oh man, I love sushi." and other people will agree, but if I say "oh man, I love Earl." other people would be all "you mean the restaurant?" and it would just be awkward.
