Love doesn’t have to be on Valentine’s Day. It doesn’t have to be by the time you turn eighteen or thirty-three or fifty-nine. It doesn’t have to conform to whatever is usual. It doesn’t have to be kismet at once, or rhapsody by the third day. It just has to be. In time. In place. In spirt. It just has to be. David Levithan
About This Quote

On Valentine’s Day, you can expect people to say “I love youâ€� with sincerity. But this is not the only time people can say “I love youâ€� with sincerity. It is the truest thing anyone could ever say, but it does not have to be said on one particular day or time. You can tell that someone loves you just by looking into their eyes and listening to them talk about the most random things.

You can read between the lines of their words and feel that they are telling the truth. People do not have to say “I love you� in order for you to know that they love you.
