why do people say "i love u" if they break up later?

Cause if they break up later on, it doesn't necessarilly mean that they never loved each other. They might even love each other after the break up, but things don't always work out. Circumstances might be against them, the timing could be wrong, and tons of other reasons could be the cause of a break up.

It could be both depending on the person. it could either mean "I don't really want to be with you anymore, but I'm too nice to say it so I'm just going to say I need space and then date someone else without really breaking up with you and just hope you get the hint" \n\nOR\n\nmaybe you are being to clingy and they just need you to take a step back. they just need you to chill while they get used to having someone around so much. \n\nplus you also have to keep in mind what's going on in their life other than you. if something else is bothering them, they may just want space, not neccissarily from you, but from the world period till they figure things out.\n\nwhatever the situation. take a step back. chill. and whatever you do... let them be. the more you push, the farther they'll pull from you.\n\nhope I've been helpful!

I dont think guys even realize the impact that those words can make. I think sometimes they use it to get what they want and be on their way and they think girls would be prefectly fine afterwards. Maybe they just dont know, or I am sure some just dont care. But I only let it happen to me once. After that, I just assumed they were all lying till I knew it was true. Even my husband admitted to me that after we first met the first time he said it to me, he wasnt telling the truth he just thought he needed to say it. I know it will be hard but just dont have take "I love you" to heart till the actions (over time) fit the words. Good luck!

There is something between I like you and I love you, and that is NOTHING.  My motto is if you don't feel it don't say it.  Yes, I love you are three over used words that we take for granted and don't truly realize that love is more than a word, to me love is an action.  It isn't so much what you say but what you do.

why would she tell u she loves u if u r not together? she broke up w/ u for a reason, becuz she doesnt want to date u anymore which means she probly doesnt love u the same. she may love u just not the way u want her to.

It means they're having a conversation with a person that isnt part of the relationship, they're actually having a life away from their partner.\n\nDont be paranoid, be trusting.

Why would you break up withsomeone you love? If they honestly mean the world to you enough that you say you love them it should mean that you are willing to spend the rest of your life with them no matter what happens

I definitely agree to your statement...\nBesides, "I love you" could denote a certain kind of selfishness and possessiveness  of  the subject... and as always the object has more responsibility than its subject.  Thereby, this statement could either build resentment or obligation to both people concerned.\n\n"I trust you" statement tends to build more confidence and mutual understanding to both people... Its more binding and it could be more lasting than any I-love-you's uttered.

If they are scared or they just want to use you - "I think I'm falling in love with you."  If they really mean it - "I love you."

If you love them... why are you trying to break up with them??

Well for me it does not matter how long you have been in a relationship when you say i love you, i think you should ONLY say it when you mean it. I think all the teens and dont Think i am some adult thinking bad of teenagers actually i am in the 8th grade so i am basically talking about my friends they toss around '' i love you'' to anyone and everyone and i dint think that is right you should only say '' i love you'' when you truly do. If you love him then just say it but go with you hart if you think it is too early or he might not ''love'' you then dont, other wise say it.

Well I am guessing you mean after you get back together.\n\nIf you are only broken up for a little while and are not serious with anyone else during the brake then usually no. Unless they specify that they want to "start over" in that case yes.\n\nIf you break up for a long while and find someone else and get serious with them then decide that you want to get back together with the other person... that is usually concidered starting over. So in that case you would change it.\n\nOnly change it after talk to the other person first. You don't want to get confused.

It means "I love you" in Dutch.\n\nHow funny to see that phrase after so many years and still know what it means. My boyfriend in high school back in the early 80's spoke Dutch, and he used to tell me that all the time. It's been over 20 years since I've heard it, but the meaning stuck with me.

they write love songs because they like to. if their in love of course their going to write about their lover. and if they broke up it's a way to get out their feelings and emotions to the person, instead of yelling at them.

Sometimes when people think they 'really love' someone whose actions hurt them (his breaking up with her, his distance and his silence) they are actually desperate to love and be loved, but the person they are focusing on is not "the one".  Instead, the one being hurt doesn't feel like they can survive alone, and they don't trust that they will find the true "one" in time to not die of a broken heart.  It's hard to make the decision to be alone when you feel this way, but it's the only way to open the door to true love, and it extends your misery until the day you decide to take the leap and risk being sad for a while.

Being friends after a break up always sounds like a good thing but ultimately people realize that down deep at least one person in that relationship is really hurt by the other or not able to get over the other person.  That is why most of the time when you break up with someone it is best to make a complete break and not have them in your life so you can honestly move forward and stop living in the past.

it means they think you are ok together and stand a chance but not sure if it's "love" yet, or don't want to admit it till they're sure of what they're feeling....give them time but don't rush it, it sounds they are the type who take this seriously and honestly and are worth the wait (not too long though)....
