About This Quote
The idea that you shouldn't say I love you unless you mean it may have evolved from the original meaning of this phrase. The original meaning was that you shouldn't say "I love you" unless you mean it, but if you mean it, you shouldn't say, "I love you," too much. This is because saying "I love you" too often might make your partner feel like he or she is not good enough, which would cause him or her to feel insecure about the relationship.
